The thread title is " Do Thais understand sarcasm?" Opinions are mixed on whether they do, or not. I am normally easy-going. When in doubt, I always give way in traffic to be on the safe side. That does not mean I think I should become a doormat for every rude person with no manners that comes along.

So? A felon is a felon. Perhaps you have heard the phrase "Only in America" . Non-Americans use it quite often.

Please tell me what would prevent the judge from deciding to sentence a felon to prison.

Looks like the Trumpers are running out of straws to clutch.

When the crowd was chanting "Hang Mike Pence" that was not an attempt to undermine the established political order? I am used to you lying to others. Isn't it time you stopped lying to yourself?

Riot: A public disturbance involving violence and disorder by a crowd. Primarily focused on causing immediate chaos and destruction Insurrection: A violent uprising against an authority or government. Aiming to overthrow or undermine the established political order. Please stop the bullsh!t, you are embarrassing yourself.

A guy claiming a worm ate his brain, talking about bears in Central Park, is not a nutter? Please be careful the next time you take a dip in the ocean. Shock horror, it has up to 1.4 mg/L fluoride. Don't drink tea, eat grapes, shellfish, shrimp or potatoes and spinach. The fluoride content may poison you. Just wondering how many posts will be made on this thread by people with zero scientific knowledge.

Keep telling yourself that lie. It's classic Goebbels.

Yes, I did forget Trump describing the Capitol insurrection as a day of love. I would prefer to forget Trump winning in 2016, that was when the sh!tshow of hatred, bigotry and division started.

Gray wolf.

Aren't you forgetting the Capitol?

You are probably not familiar with the Isaac Asimov aphorism: "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent". If the cap fits, wear it.

Canis.

AFAIK it's only Vietnamese and Koreans who eat dogs. Homo Sapiens is an omnivore. If you are trying to say we have double standards, what's new?

IIRC you have said your Mrs. has put on some weight.

Interesting comment. It implies MAGA supporters have a inbred propensity for violence.

One can't be too careful when dealing with psychos.

You mean like Trump flogging Bibles he can't quote a single verse from?

I would be delighted to see anyone in a MAGA hat or shirt. It gives me fair warning to give them a wide berth, as I would a rabid soi dog.

Look over there. How novel.

As a non-American, the sheer insanity of contemplating the return of a felon, sexual predator and fraudster to the most powerful position on the planet is mind-boggling. No other democracy in the world would do it. Trump's principal skill seems to be in milking the American taxpayer every time he plays golf, and appointing sycophants to office. It's the same problem Xi, Putin and Kim have. They will never be told the truth by underlings. Permit me to doubt a guy who ticks nearly all the boxes of a narcissistic sociopath will ever have the ability to be a good leader. His whole shtick is based on lies, bigotry, racism and hatred. I won't be roaming the streets. Like many others, if Trump gets in, it will be evidence America has gone mad.

Thais are not noted for strenuous exercise, which helps prevent high blood pressure. It's also possible hypertension is over-diagnosed, due to white coat syndrome. I have a monitor at home. My average blood pressure is 110/60 with 25 mg of Losartan. Pulse 55 bpm Any time I get near a clinic, hospital or doctor, it shoots up to 145/80. Pulse 75 bpm.

The maximum daily intake of fluoride recommended by the WHO is 10 mg per kg of body weight. It is a lot lower for children. Fluoride is added to water supply at 0.5 mg/L. A 80 kg adult would therefore have to consume 160 litres of water daily to achieve the maximum permitted dose. You'd have hyponatremia long before you got there. Next.

The nitrate - nitrite conversion is known to chemists as a redox reaction. Nitrates are generated in the stomach from vegetables such as celery, spinach, beets and aragula. A small proportion pass into saliva. Facultative bacteria convert nitrate to nitrite. Production of nitrite in saliva is halted temporarily when mouthwash is used, due to the alcohol content. Fluoride is an inert anion. It has no redox properties. The only way FLUORINE can participate in a redox reaction is if it is present as the molecule, F2. Antacids and pantoprazole reduce stomach acidity. Nitrate content of vegetables does not change. You should be aware excessive nitrite consumption can lead to the formation of nitrosamines, which are known human carcinogens. You are posting breathtakingly ignorant scientific nonsense, with a couple of grains of truth in the morass of junk science.

What are your reasons? Myself and my former wife have both made dentists rich, we were born pre-fluoridation. Our son was fed fluoride drops as a child because we only had rainwater supply. He has had two cavities in his entire life. Fluoride is normally dosed into water at 0.5 ppm. If I were you, I'd be more worried about the fact nearly all water supply is chlorinated, which is a far greater hazard in terms of soft tissue cancers, although health authorities don't talk about it. Don't forget to avoid cups of tea and canned salmon, both of which are rich in fluoride. IMO RFK is a grave danger to the health of Americans, like Trump he is anti-science. Both like appealing to the lunatic fringe.
