  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. It doesn't look like your local Thais are hungry enough.
  4. 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.
  5. Where are you living, in the jungle?
  6. IMO not a good trade, the USD for making ourselves a nuclear target.
  7. I've only seen 2 snakes in Thailand in 14 years here, and both ended up in a village cooking pot.
  8. What we lack in fresh water fishing we more than compensate for in salt water. Plenty of hunting for water buffalo, feral pigs, deer, foxes, cats, and wild dogs. Rabbits in the colder areas, where calcivirus did not take hold. Even wild camels. Of the 12 most venomous species on the planet, Australia has 11 of them.
  9. Australian, living in Thailand for 14 years now. Life is good. I speak reasonably good Thai, which makes life a lot easier.
  10. I'll take that as an admission your OP was intended to be nasty. I have no problem with someone who claims to be smarter than me, all he/she has to do is prove it.
  11. The ASFA estimates only 30% of Australians will have enough superannuation to retire. It's almost certain casualisation is a contributing factor.
  12. Stop deflecting. I have met Christians before who attend church every Sunday, then lie like pigs in sh!t the rest of the week.
  13. It's not. If that is what you meant, you should have said so. Permit me to doubt that was your intended meaning.
  14. Psychopaths are to be found in every nationality. They discriminate against groups they consider to be weaker and less powerful.
  15. IMO it is not a belief when Putin himself has expressed the sentiment repeatedly and publicly.
  16. A bit nasty from someone professing to be a Christian.
  17. Do you buy pangasius? If so, how do you cook it? It seems to be pumped full of water.
  18. This thread is most useful. It helps me identify people who are morons, idiots and imbeciles.
  19. I buy chicken tenderloins and pork tenderloins at Tops. I buy salmon, beef, ham and cheese at Makro. Methinks the OP's palate is so refined he should not be living in Thailand. Oh <deleted>, he'll probably start a thread on the best country for gourmets. Or is he a gourmand?
  20. People smoke and drink, on a daily basis. Alcohol and tobacco are known human carcinogens. What's mind-boggling is when people then squeal like stuck pigs, at the thought of 0.5 mL once a year. Are you a doctor? Your opinion on the cause of death is valueless without a post-mortem report by a health professional.
  21. You are wasting your time arguing with someone with the IQ of a turnip.
  22. Trump was convicted by a jury. IMO he'll get a slap on the wrist, such as a fine. Reversing the decision would be a rejection of the jury verdict, and hundreds of years of jurisprudence. Anarchy would replace law.
  23. Kudos for your imagination. You have outdone BB/Colin/Bob, and I think he is sulking.
  24. Why? It's as good as the stuff you are posting. I should have started putting a thousand baht aside for every time a poster made these claims when I first came on Thai Visa. I'd be driving a 7 -series Beemer by now if I had.
  25. IMO you are confusing me with someone else, quite possible with your mental decline. The last submission to the Australian Government I made was a form opting out of submitting a tax return, 4 years ago. Repetition of phrases is a symptom of dementia, your high horse aphorism fits the bill.
