What makes you think labeling a poster as annoying will change their behavior? If I have had enough of a poster, I either put them on ignore, or just stop reading their posts.

IIRC some of your posts directed at me don't display any class either.

I suggest you look at the ratio of likes to posts as well.

I relate more to this. The guitar solo is one of the best of all time.

Are your origins why you have a censorious and judgmental attitude about farangs and bar girls?

Gimme a break here, my specialty is chemistry. I scraped through on maths examinations, although later became quite proficient in statistics.

IIRC my first encounter with computing was actually a Friden calculator, when I worked in iron ore mining ( 1966 - 1972 ). Before that, I was using a slide rule, which I still have. A far cry from a smartphone, where the calculation function is a very minor accessory in a sea of apps.

I was not a computer nerd, my first exposure to computers was in 1976 when I switched fields from glass manufacturing to steel. At the time, the steel industry had computers running on perforated paper tape. My typing may be laborious; however, I do have patience. Staying alive is only worthwhile if there is also quality of life.

There are people in this world for whom more is never enough. If your former friend does not want to do anything about her exploitation, neither can you. Find another massage shop with more acceptable labor practices.

I go back as far as the first Amstrad, CPC 464 with 64 KB of RAM. Green text on a black screen. Being a one finger typist, I never wore out a keyboard. I can't say tact is in my skill set.

Keep an eye out for sidewall and tread cracking. Loads of tread or km are not as significant as age in the Thai climate.

I only buy Michelins, IMO they are much better than other brands in wet conditions. More expensive, it depends on what one thinks their life is worth.

This is Thailand, not the UK. Used car prices are manipulated. Having said that, the average asking price for a 3-4 yo full electric MG ZS is about 650,000 baht. https://www.one2car.com/en/cars-for-sale/mg/zs?fuel_type=Electric The 2023 new MG ZS is 1.2 million baht. That's a depreciation hit of about 150,000 baht/year. I bought a 2 yo Mazda 2 for 440,000 baht. RRP new was 600,000 baht. Depreciation 80,000 baht/year. After 3 more years of my ownership, the insurance company values it at 350,000 baht, my depreciation is 30,000 baht/year. Obviously, both ICE's and EV's take the biggest hit in their first 2-3 years. After that, the depreciation of an ICE slows down. IMO the asking price of a secondhand EV will continue to fall off a cliff. Everyone knows what life to expect out of an ICE. Plenty of 20 yo cars on Thai roads. It's too early to tell how many km will be racked up by an EV, which means there will be a lot more buyer hesitancy.

I prefer just moving my bowel.

It makes a change from being exploited by Western family law.

Excellent post, thank you.

Like most trolls, you present your opinions as established facts.

Even the relative rate the shop pays itself and her is way too much. My massage lady who runs a shop in Chiang Rai has 3 or 4 women working for her. Thai massage ( no oil ) is 150 baht. The women get 100 baht, she takes 50. They don't have to wait in the shop, she calls them if there is an influx of customers. The owner is no friend of the family, and is extracting the urine. IMO it is casual work, and no government agency would be interested. Perhaps if you presented her with data from other shops which demonstrates she is being exploited, although she may also regard that as loss of face.

In God's kitchen.......

If you had the intelligence to understand my first post, you would have realized I was saying I never found any Asian women had larger caves because they were always quite snug on me. IME they tend to be tight. OTOH, you can tell, which means you are too small for some. Do I need to draw pictures for you, or are you going to continue with fatuous and ignorant posts?

I will probably be gone by then. I have to wonder what a country has come to, when it goes back to being a prison colony.

You are such a romantic.

That does not prevent you from acquiring an STD.

Another poster was talking about an anti-Australian bias in the algorithm, try to keep up.

Easier to manage than something down to their waist.
