  1. I keep mostly to myself. No-one is interested in the multiple health crises I have had, no point to discussing them. No interest in bars. I try to stick to my exercise routines and diet, to stay healthy.
  2. Hamburgers, sausages etc. have one major flaw - only the maker knows what's in them. Processed meats are inherently less healthy than straight pork, beef, chicken or fish.
  3. Either it is a scam, or it is not. If it is a scam, I expect the penny will drop with Kasikorn, after aggrieved customers start bringing their forms into local branches. If it is not, I would expect other banks to follow suit.
  4. I would not do anything online. I intend to submit the forms at the bank branch, in person. I will be inputting the number from my Thai pink card. I do not have a Thai tax number as yet. I am Australian.
  5. FWIW, this is the English Breakfast at Sausage King in Chiang Mai, toast, jam, large coffee included. 180 baht.
  6. I am wondering how much information will be passed on to Putin.
  7. Of playing golf, and enriching himself at the expense of taxpayers. Of ignoring issues such as climate change, affordable health care, and inflation. Which will follow as sure as night follows day, with Trump policies. The first time around, his presidency could be regarded as an experiment in changing the status quo, government by tweets on social media. Second time, the rest of the world is wondering how Americans got to be so dumb.
  8. Pyrex casseroles available on Lazada.
  9. Pyrex glass. Plastics frequently contain plasticizers such as phthalates. They leach out of the plastic over time. They are endocrine disruptors, and may cause lower sperm counts in men.
  10. You don't see people crowding emergency departments with cases of aluminium poisoning , do you? Aluminium has been used in cooking utensils for over a century. Aluminium will dissolve in strong acids such as hydrochloric, sulphuric or nitric, below pH4. IME one needs to get below pH2 before any appreciable attack is observed. AFAIK foods do not contain the acids mentioned above. They contain weak acids, such as citric, acetic and oxalic acids. They do not attack aluminium as strong acids do. I suggest you study basic chemistry, and take a Valium.
  11. Surprisingly, my hands are still very steady, considering my age. One of my friends has had hand tremors since he was a teenager. Skill vs. stamina. When you have spent as many hours as I have with 1-2 litre extraction flasks, a strong grip is developed. Never used a SEM, although I frequently used a polarizing microscope for asbestos identification.
  12. Would you like a gold star on your forehead, or a Hoppy badge?
  13. I don't know. It just says incorrect password.
  14. It's very easy to look up the term on Google.
  15. Would you get fined 2000 baht once, or 4 times?
  16. I suppose some people could find the 90 day report burdensome if they are living in the sticks. It's part of a shopping day for me. A bit annoying I can't do it online, apparently Immigration's software is incompatible with Linux. Happy to stand corrected if someone explains how.
  17. I suppose it helps if what's coming out is soft, rather than hard.
  18. Contraction of Teflon.
  19. Have I succeeded in rendering you speechless?
  20. It may be advertised as such, but it's not. It is biologically inert.
  21. IIRC Trump University specialized in teaching people how to lie convincingly. Given his history of bankruptcies, I am wondering if he will manage to bankrupt America.
  22. I'm guessing if you actually made it past primary school, your major would be something arty-farty.
  23. PEG 4000, sold as Macrogol. It dissolves in water, has electrolytes added. It works in about 12 hours. It is a stool softener, not a laxative. Harmless, non-habit forming. It functions by drawing water into the colon, making the feces soft. IIRC 500 baht for 20 sachets. I use it if the bowels have not moved for a couple of days. Nothing wrong with high fibre, but if laxatives are included in the formula it can be harmful long term.
  24. I have a comfortable life, thank you. I will die solvent, which is more than can be said of many in and out of Thailand. When you get tired of the sarcastic BS and childish memes, enlighten me: What level of education have you actually attained?
  25. You're welcome, always happy to help out the less educated.
