  1. A funeral in my GF's village is about 30,000 baht, including monk rituals. I don't know how much of that is the actual cremation cost. It includes food for mourners. I have told my GF nothing fancy, whether she listens is another matter. I want my ashes scattered on any golf course, probably easier to do that in Australia. Here, the fear of ghosts is still a factor.
  2. Visa is more popular than Mastercard, market share is 48% vs 36%. Acceptance also varies by country. In the UK, Mastercard comes in third behind Visa and PayPal.
  3. I'd consider buying a beer at a bar, in exchange for getting access to a toilet, a cheap price to pay if I was caught short. I have yet to see a service station in Thailand which did not have free toilets. Actually, his body shape is disgusting. Waist is bigger than his bum by a good margin. I don't understand how people can let themselves go like that.
  4. I asked Gemini the question - is methamphetamine ( yaba ) addictive? Yes, methamphetamine is highly addictive. It's a stimulant drug that alters the way your brain processes reward and motivation. Methamphetamine use can lead to a powerful compulsion to use the drug again and again, even when it has negative consequences. Methamphetamine addiction can develop quickly, even after just one use. The risk of addiction is even higher for people who start using meth at a young age, who have a family history of addiction, or who have mental health problems. AI has its flaws. However, I think I'd put more trust in its information than yours.
  5. I'd suggest putting a PM 2.5 meter in the car as well, then the OP can see if the gadget actually makes a difference.
  6. Alcohol also removes inhibitions. What is unacceptable conduct when sober becomes acceptable.
  7. In your experience, what percentage of the prisoner population could be regarded as having above-average intelligence?
  8. Please cite crimes and violence committed under the influence of a couple of double shot espressos.
  9. The risks of combining alcohol with antibiotics are as follows: Increased side effects such as irritation of the stomach and intestines. It's why antibiotics are usually taken with or after food. Reduction of the effectiveness of the antibiotic, due to chemical interactions in the liver and kidneys.. Impede healing from trauma. There are several antibiotics which can actually increase the risk of hepatitis if mixed with alcohol. I suppose when a poster is an alcoholic, any excuse will be seized on to avoid abstinence.
  10. If your Mrs. is using yaba, in your shoes I'd be watching my back. It's well known for causing psychosis.
  11. 100% agree, same here. Same reason many Burmese seek work in Thailand, they earn three times what they can get in Myanmar. Rents in Australia may take about 60% of age pension income. In Thailand, it's less than 15%.
  12. Two residences, two cars, two scooters. One GF. Eat out regularly, play golf. Sometimes see troll posts on ASEAN.
  13. Between the sixties and eighties was a golden age, housing was affordable and people could make good money compared to living costs. I paid off my house mortgage back then in 18 months. The current generation trying to get into their own homes are looking at 40 - 50 years.
  14. You're classy with your first response to me? I guess putting other posters down is your thing, which makes you a poor excuse for a human being.
  15. No, there would have been a genocide instead. Putin finishing what Stalin started.
  16. IME the operation is less significant than the rehab process.
  17. I live as I want to. I don't have to worry about dying broke. If you regard yourself as a heavyweight, chances are you have a gut to match.
  18. Your head is certainly bigger than anyone else on ASEAN.
  19. Hole up with air purifiers until the rains come.
  20. Er - 40K a month is 480 K a year. I average 660K a year, I see no reason to live as a miser.
  21. I am struggling in Australia. Cold, and expensive. Two weeks to go, and I will be back in Thailand. People are really struggling here. Rental costs have skyrocketed.
  22. The flaw in Bob's OP is when the girl asked if he was Thai. She could not pick a round-eye?
  23. Plain water. Sugar-free most probably means artificial sweeteners are used instead.
