What is your proof for the statement?

They are like alcohol intake, it's about how much entertainment occupies an individual's day. I'd say TV shows do less harm than propping up a bar stool all day. I'd add the actors make a lot more money than your curmudgeon opinion ever would.

IME a quick click as the first ad times out is all that's needed. YMMV.

YouTube is monetizing all popular clips, hoping to get people to subscribe to its Premium service. Either way, it makes money. I just wait the ads out for 5 seconds, then click on "skip ads" which appears at the bottom RHS.

I am 80. I could get hit by a tuk-tuk tomorrow crossing the street, or live for 5-10 years more. There's nothing I can do about it, except keep doing what I am doing. If my quality of life deteriorates, it will be time to pull the plug. I would hope I never get to be so insensitive and ill-mannered that I would be reminding others of their mortality.

Who says they are leaders in their field, apart from people who are having their confirmation biases massaged?

Smart people have stopped replying to the OP.

Third poster to reprove me for a mistake I have acknowledged on the first page of this thread, and the second poster too lazy to read said post. It must be wonderful to live a life error-free, which begs the question of why you are here on the forum.

Thank you lopburi3, your suggestion of accessing via Google worked.

I have noticed several big pharmacies in Chiang Rai have closed down.

IME authorised service centres are money machines who are mainly interested in how much they can extract from a customer's wallet. For years now, I have had two independent mechanics in Chiang Rai. They keep my car and scooter in perfect running order, and cost considerably less than a service centre.

I am from Australian stock too. AFAIK, there are no convicts in my ancestry. Not being judgmental, but isn't the term "fine Australian convict" an oxymoron?

I might have had a problem with lockdowns in Australia; however, I was in Thailand. One of the big mistakes made by medical authorities was the failure to communicate vaccines did not prevent COVID. I had COVID after vaccination. I am in the most vulnerable age cohort. My symptoms were quite mild, three days of a sore throat and runny nose. For me, there is nothing to forgive. Health authorities world-wide were scrambling to protect people any way they could, some politicians were running interference in the name of a sacred cow, the economy. It's a bit difficult to forget anti-vaxxers, who cherry-picked data to suit their confirmation bias.

I was in a hurry, bring out the tar and feathers at your leisure. I suggest you learn grammar and spelling.

I have been using Lazada for 3 or 4 years. Recently, its system decided my password is incorrect. Which is absolute nonsense, as my password is copied and pasted from my Bitwarden vault. Attempts to fix this problem over a week have been unsuccessful, when I go into the forgot password route the system keeps telling me I have made too many attempts. Multiple calls and emails to Lazada have got me no further along the road. Enough, I am switching to Shopee. Are there any pitfalls with their system I should be aware of?

My mistake, I thought the OP said she is 18. he is 70. A freelancer at 27, when the relationship started. means she was very probably in the hardened category.

Pets and children are a responsibility. If they can't take care of them, people should not have them.

How the billionaire thought an 18 yo leopard would change her spots is beyond my comprehension. She's just getting started.

Thanks for proving what I just posted. You are a sad excuse for a human being. I suspect you are far less offensive in person, than when behind a keyboard.

Your sense of humour consists of issuing put-downs. You would be incapable of understanding mine.

Pretty rich, coming from someone with 100% self-absorption.

I would not want to be any celebrity, unless I could squirrel away a good portion of their money during the week.

IMO caused by threads started by certain posters.
