Lacessit

If it's not, I want to invest in his AI.

Anyone who has driven any type of vehicle in Thai traffic knows it always has been the Wild West out there. Darwin will sort out the incoming.

The gloating comes from people who are so deluded, they actually believe the BS Trump promised on the campaign trail. The howling will come later, as he and his billionaire buddies throw them under a bus.

Unvaccinated people are and were 3-4 times more likely to die of COVID. Unvaccinated people are and were 6-7 times more likely to be clogging up ICU's, and requiring intubation, to keep them alive. Vaccinated people are 60% less likely to experience symptoms lasting more than 30 days after being infected. People no longer dispute the statistic that says smokers are 20 times more likely to die of lung cancer than non-smokers. Perhaps that kind of ratio is required to convince the anti-vaxxers. Getting even broader in scope, it's the level of anti-science which is exhibited on social media, and the denial of basic statistics, which is worrying. We seem determined to regress to ignorance.

Let me set your mind at rest. My Thai GF is very very female. As far as abuse goes, IMO any man who hits a woman is a moral coward.

Nearly all relationships start out as transactional. Love at first sight is as rare as hens teeth. They can proceed to something else with time, or end as boredom or demands increase. IMO the OP is naive in positing Thai women are more tolerant of transgressions. "Feeding the ducks" is not a myth, it happens. Let's hope he does not have to learn from experience.

Not as lethal as coffee.

In a way, it's a pity the mortality rate is only 2-3%. Much higher is needed to weed out the idiots effectively.

Common sense is not all that common. Your posts certainly have not exhibited any. To me, a COVID jab is the same as a flu jab. Once a year for both is sufficient. That's common sense.

What agents are there in Chiang Rai who will do this? Asking for a friend....

How many dogs does the OP have? I don't agree with poisoning dogs, that's horrible. However, I would like to know what provoked the act of poison. Punishing the Thai wife and family for the actions of another Thai is not logical.

I can sense your heavy breathing.

No. I see 480 in February - March, are you having a premature ejaculation?

Your in good physical shape, then. Perhaps I should worry more about your mental health.

Not too bad in Chiang Rai, PM 2.5 in my condo is 48.

Our resident mop-pushing psychiatrist is here, dispensing free advice to other posters. I would normally put him on ignore. However, I am fascinated by what level of banality he can attain with his posts.

IMO when a dog of this type kills or injures someone, the owner should be sentenced as if they did the act themself.

Jobs for the boys, or a girl in this case. No surprise there.

The age pension is both entitlement and welfare. Any Australian who meets the age and financial criteria is entitled to it. The current situation is a self-inflicted wound. Before, during and after the GFC, hundreds of thousands of Australians lost their life savings to thieves, mainly due to the abject incompetence of ASIC. They were then forced to apply for part or full pensions to make up the shortfall. I guess victim blaming is popular among people who don't like the concept of welfare for those less fortunate. When Joe Hockey said the age of entitlement is over, he certainly was not talking about the tax breaks he was giving to the wealthy. Or himself, the fat turd. BTW, what's your BMI?

If I Recall Correctly.

IIRC you are not Australian. If you want to troll, do it somewhere else. This thread is for Australians only.

IMO the woke and PC stuff all started when personnel departments renamed themselves Human Resources. Then decreed all managers should be touchy-feely, and authoritarians were frowned upon. Robert Townsend was right when he recommended firing the personnel department in its entirety, calling them babysitters in the corporate kindergarten.

The pension is an entitlement, not a right. There are limitations placed on it by how much other income one earns, or the assets they hold, whichever reduces the pension the most.

It doesn't look like your local Thais are hungry enough.

Drone technology has changed the face of war in Ukraine, coverting $5 million tanks into useless junk. That's where the taxpayer money should be going, not clapped - out nuclear submarines which will be obsolete by the time Australia gets them.
