  1. The two most likely outcomes are: 1. She keeps the motorcycles. 2. She keeps the motorcycles and you get deported.
  2. I thought so too, but from looking at his other recent posts he seems to be a True Believer.
  3. Is that also how you measure the value of the people in your life?
  4. yes. Just under 16 hours to BKK, Just over 13 hours return. A bit pricey for economy, but that travel time is so much better than other options.
  5. For sufficiently small values of "extremely."
  6. You get stamped out first, then go get the reentry permit?
  7. Often when hospitalized one is not really able to think these things through. It's a terrible system, widely practiced.
  8. Is there a list of countries where this has happened?
  9. If I could tell my younger self just one thing, this would be it.
  10. 6 comments, 2 "brown envelope" jokes. It just never gets old, I guess.
  11. ——V———_______——X———_______——X———_______——X———_______——X Legend: — 800k min, _400k min, V Visa, X Extension
  12. Interesting. I'd not heard of that. From looking at the site, though, it says you get a reservation, not a ticket. Is that good enough?
  13. Natural selection is always at work. It's just that "fittest" might not be what you want it to be.
  14. You get a new visa every year? An extension is relatively cheap. I did it for more than a decade pre-covid, and I think it was something like 1,900 baht per year. I don't remember exactly, but it wasn't a lot.
  15. "Do not iron clothes while wearing them"
  16. Sounds like what he really needed was legs, not arms.
  17. The headline says worth 34M baht, which is currently about US$900,000
  18. Always good to have someone to blame. If not for "them" everything would be just peachy.
  19. They're buying cheap baht now. When the dollar eventually eases they might buy it back at a profit.
  20. Many generations have had questions like this. What did people do before smart phones? What did people do before the internet? What did people do before TV? What did people do before radio? What did people do before electricity? etc. One day it'll be ubiquitous augmented reality, then virtual reality, then the computers take over and keep inventing new forms of entertainment to pacify the meat-creatures. ????
  21. I've purchased from apple.com/th many times using a US credit card, including one item I later returned. All went smoothly, free delivery on everything and free pickup for the return.
  22. You do sweat while swimming but you don't notice it. Nordic walking you may have seen. It's using the poles and is supposed to be very good for working many groups of muscles. Still looks a bit silly to me, but that's my problem, not theirs. It would also help with the knee.
