  1. Astounding. Who would buy this stuff? I guess the ultra rich might buy it for a joke.
  2. I use my SCB balance to pay local bills and those who I can pay by transfer to their bank account. For cash I withdraw from a Charles Schwab account in the US. Each month Schwab refunds all ATM fees from other banks. Nice benefit, I don't know of other banks that provide it. If you can have a US account it might be an option.
  3. This was in response to: "Then perhaps her Thai boyfriend has expensive taste." You need this explained? Sounds like you have led a sheltered life. Were you home schooled?
  4. May I use the expression that first comes to mind? No sh?t Sherlock.
  5. If anyone doubts the usefulness of the ignore functions I submit the following from this thread. Although you might choose different members to ignore, you can see how it allows one to skip over personal beefs between other members. You've chosen to ignore content by Harrisfan.

  6. Please clarify what you mean by Big Lebowski type of deep? There are limits to civil discourse and I hope you do not mean to cast aspersions on The Dude.
  7. In business disputes keep a civil tongue in your head ... oh too late. Sounds like it wasn't the efforts at collection but the verbal abuse that led to violence.
  8. Didn't the article say he was in a stretch of road where no motorcycles were allowed? Maybe that is why.
  9. Well, he may say that but people do care what others look like. To me, his facial tattoos suggest many possibilities about him none of them good. An astounding lack of foresight would be one. A "rebel without a clue", anti-establishment syndrome as another. An "I don't give a sh?t" attitude as another. Any of these, again suspected not confirmed, would be enough for me to move on to the next plasterer looking for work.
  10. The thing is he probably has only the one way of making money. Probably don't want him out scamming to raise funds to pay victims of his previous scams.
  11. I am of Irish ancestry and have an Irish sounding name. When I was 18 my first day on a new job an older guy asked me: "So are you lace curtain Irish or pig sh?t Irish?" I guessed somewhere in between. Maybe you are closer to lace curtain on the continuum.
  12. I agree, for minor health problems it is great. Doctors here (I have only been to private hospitals for outpatient care) are great, for me have been better than my docs in the US. But for drugs requiring a prescription, compared to Medicare covered medications they are much more expensive. And if I ever need hospitalization, even though I have medical insurance, I would seriously consider going back to the US.
  13. He was fat, but didn't seem fat enough that he couldn't squeeze into an airline seat. Apparently his problem was about legroom? It is possible to be fat and be an idiot, maybe the latter was his real problem.
  14. So sad. A school intended to help disadvantaged kids and school management uses the meal program to exploit them. Greed and lack of conscience. Maybe indifference to the concepts of right and wrong. Astounding.
  15. This is related to Iran re: protesters who are anti western and supporting Iran's proxies. I saw a video where anti-western protesters who were chanting "from the river to the sea" were asked, "What river? What sea?" and they did not know. Youthful dopes. But many attending university, God help us.
  16. I can't see any reason to criticize excluding people for their tattoos. Getting a tattoo is a personal choice so the result of getting them is your choice as well.
  17. Hand and finger tattoos as well, sorry that crosses the line for me. Shun him.
  18. Another crim with the internationally recognized symbol of intelligence, wealth, and success: extensive tattoos. I have been told on AN the heavily tattooed individuals are probably wealthier, more intelligent and more successful than I am. And as a confirmed Marxist (Groucho not Karl) I am reminded of the rhetorical question: "Who you gonna believe? Me or you own eyes?"
  19. Like the guy who says "She didn't break up with me, I broke up with her". As far as the tattoos, stupidity and mental illness and it's still inexplicable.
  20. "Preliminary investigations indicate that excessive speed was a likely factor" Who'd a thunk it?
  21. Maybe it's time for a sub category "Cross Bow related crime".
