Yes, filed no charges of obstruction, that is a fact. Whether or not they found crimes you and I don't know.

There is a big difference between 'filed no charges' and 'there was no obstruction'.

It's insanely trivial crap like this that's going to put Trump back in office. But....but.....but....

All because the OP doesn't have the wherewithal to simply ask for a spoon when checking out ????

 

Digital pollution ????

Because from time to time the OP takes his eyes off the ball.

Lazada has one beach cruiser "firmstrong" I think it's called but pricey at 14,000bht, then there's a local place in Phuket that sells custom beach cruisers online

How many criminals from Trumps team are currently sitting in jail because of this "crap"?

Doesn't matter, 2 yrs of trying to make Trump the Boogie Man didn't work. Stop the nonsense and get back into the business of running the country.

Feel free to buy a few small metal spoons in Tesco, BigC or elsewhere.

Good for the environment.

I presume.

 

 

I could, but that wouldn't address the carelessness of 7-11 employees. Forgetfulness can be forgiven but not if it's laziness. Sort of like the dilemma of walking on sidewalks with all oncoming pedestrians glued to smart phone. Yes, I'm able to navigate around them but is that right. Why should all the responsibility of walking safely rest on my shoulders. This the world we live in.

Tea spoons aren't small enough?

 

 Anything like spoons or straws that I can refuse, I do. One time a clerk tried to stuff some straws in a small bag containing two beers I bought.

Straws are good, I've used those like chop stiks for yogurt before. Straws for beers are quite useful as well, makes drinking and driving more civilized.

are you for real...or just pulling a chain...a spoon????  come on.

Don't believe I've ever "pulled a chain" or is that a train, either way answer is no. I'm very much real. But thanks to all the great feedback I'm making progress. 

Now, if I could just get that Med Ganja lined up I'm set.

Why not wash a few of the plastic spoons they (normally) give you, and re-use them? Then you'll always have some around and do the planet a favor at the same time.

I occasionally  do that, not for the planet but for my own and that of my baby girl's sake.

No spoon or anything that could be used as a replacement. How sad.

But how awesome are those cute little plastic spoons that makes this portion of yogurt last longer than eating it with a soup spoon. And, and when you're finished no need to walk into kitchen with said dirty metal spoon. You simply toss it in the trash. I don't believe nay sayers are yogurt lovers or yogurt enthusiasts.

But thanks to an unnamed posh hotel I'm in procession of some fine quality hoity toity small spoons which may work in a pinch.

Geez I don’t know about you but I as a working man lost 8900$ on my return compared to last year but maybe you belong to the top 1% so donalds tax scam worked for you

Haven't done my taxes for 2018 yet. Not looking forward to it. I believe less money has been taken out during the year which may account for less return. If you saw a $8900. loss you're above my pay bracket.

Fair enough.  You're a believer...I get that.  But most of America is not.  And Trump has never cared about the rest of America.  That will be his downfall.

 

[According to the Gallup poll, Trump is the first president to never have even one day where a majority of Americans supported him.]

[And so while he may galvanize loyalists, Trump has consistently failed to win over Americans beyond his base.]

But when the day comes you walk in to cast your vote, what are folks going to be thinking about? They'll be thinking about who will help them the most. A vote for Bernie or any other Dem will automatically mean your taxes will increase, at least the working man's taxes will increase. If you're on the low end of wages earnings then who know's. People may not like Trump but I'd lay my wagers in his favor come 2020.

I don’t know if I’ll be the first, but I am seriously considering getting a medical prescription/card when I travel back to California in a couple months. I’d then have a starting point for applying for a prescription here. But who knows.

I got one of those. As easy as walking in to the dispensary, talking to a "Doctor" on the phone and wha-la, you got it. Cost like $35. Not sure if that will help here.

Enough of all this intellectual, I'm so well informed crap. Are foreigners aka farang going to be allowed this Med Ganja??? That is the important question.

Who will the first farang be?????

I've always said ... take away western toilets, toilet paper, air conditioning, bread, western food and fancy supermarkets, the internet then double the prices for fe/male companionship  -- 80% will be gone in 90 days.

 

It amazes me how even the most skint farang manage to live in a bubble since 2000.

Western toilets - even Thais love these

Toilet paper - don't use it

air cond - everyone love this, now you're just being stupid

bread - 7-11 will not stop selling or I could make my own

western food - too over priced anyway

fancy supermarkets - Makro is more than good enough, they got everything

internet - will never go away

double price for ladies - with my old lady I'm paying way more than double already

All good and well as long as they keep on handing out small plastic spoons wrapped in plastic for their duplicable yogurts.

why have shit like this going on for 6 pages

Your input is appreciated to solving my intolerance or lack of regarding my spoon dilemma. From now on when I ask the cashier for missing spoons I'll always have a smile on my face.

If you have a live-in Thai Girlfriend or Wife, you will automatically have a drawer containing several thousand drinking straws, plastic spoons and red elastic bands.  So just check there for your yogurt spoon.

 

I don't believe all the stats from Greenpeace about plastic waste from Thailand, nothing escapes the draw under the sink drainer.

 

You have a drawer???  Probably what's in the plastic bags hanging from my kitchen windows.
