  1. I have the exact same problem. The doctor said it's pretty common. He suggested I check my blood pressure over several days at public kiosks or at home and average the readings. Since those readings were normal, he doesn't see a reason to be concerned about the higher readings in his office. Just FYI, I checked my blood pressure at two different hospitals in Pattaya yesterday. It was significantly lower than it has been recently, both at home and in the doctor's office. That was a pleasant surprise! I feel more relaxed here too, so Thailand seems to be good for my blood pressure.👍
  2. Can someone translate this to sober english for me.
  3. I found free-to-use blood pressure machines at Pattaya City and Pattaya Memorial Hospitals. Pattaya City Hospital: Two machines are located outside the side entrance. Pattaya Memorial Hospital: One machine is available at the Emergency entrance, and two more are near the nurses' station by the main entrance. I checked on two machines at Pattaya Memorial and one at Pattaya City. The machines appeared to be of good quality, and all readings were consistent, suggesting accurate measurements.
  4. Are you also an ex navy seal? Seems to be a lot of those around too. Most of the trumpers I see around town can barely get up off the barstool and are all talk. Just like their convicted felon hitler loving orange hero.
  5. Pretty dumb idea bringing your politics overseas like that and making yourself a target. I have openly mocked people in MAGA hats or with Trump t-shirts in Thailand and the Philippines. You don't see us walking around in Harris/Biden shirts because we are not in a cult, so we don't feel the need to do dumb tribal stuff like that. Especially in a foreign country.
  6. I will check that out, thanks! Anyone know of Pattaya Memorial Hospital has them? Or Pattaya City Hospital? Those are the two closest to me.
  7. Define a real pharmacy. You mean like Fascino? I thought Boots/Watsons were also real pharmacies? Do it for me as in they have one of those battery operated testers they will let me sit down and use, or do it for me as in they have public kiosks?
  8. I don't think citizenship determines your tax residency. At least not in Canada, but I am pretty sure it's the same in most other G20 countries.
  9. Back in Canada, there are public blood pressure checkers all over the place. I can't find anything like that anywhere in Pattaya. Anyone know of a way to get my blood pressure checked that does not involve buying a tester or paying to see a doctor? I think there used to be kiosks around that did that at one time, but so far I have not been able to find anything like that.
  10. I don't find Jomtien to be expensive at all. Maybe some of the night markets and nicer hotels but easy to find inexpensive options too.
  11. 5 million is when your marginal tax rate becomes 35%, so you would need to be making more than twice that for "most" of your income to be taxed at 35%.
  12. Not that straight forward considering that immigration and taxes are two totally separate gov't agencies with very different mandates. Even governments in the 1st world have a hard time collaborating and sharing data across agencies.
  13. Otherwise known as the marginal tax rate. A relatively simple but often misunderstood tax concept.
  14. DTV has nothing to do with taxes, other than allowing people to easily stay over the 6 month threshold at which point the tax rules apply. They are totally separate gov't departments as far as I can tell.
  15. The convicted felon fraudster only attracts the best people. Everyone says so. Ask anyone. His rallies are full of them. No empty seats.
  16. Hitler youth organizations across America must be excited at all these new prospects coming out of the woodwork. Should help keep them out of trouble I supposed. If it's not for that they would probably be shooting up a school somewhere. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/teenager-wearing-trump-shirt-charged-with-punching-harris-supporter-70/ar-AA1toYOi
  17. Imagine being so indoctrinated as to throw your life away for that low life orange scum bag. They can always join the hitler youth I suppose. Those people will accept anyone as long as they are white. https://apnews.com/article/machete-trump-florida-harris-arrest-32874969448c23ae1421cbd8b9dade48
  18. SMS verification will sometimes not pass the phone number security check if you use Google Voice. No way of knowing for sure until you try and that is no guarantee it will continue working. I couldn't find anything about international roaming on the paygo site so I am guessing it can't do that. So you would have to be in the US to use that service. Better off getting a US phone number from voip.ms, which can be done from Asia, and using their SMS-to-email feature to get a GV account set up. The most fullproof way to maintain a US/Can number, that should always work for bank SMS verification, is to use a SIM provider and plan that has the WiFi calling feature. That way it's a 100% legit mobile number that passes security checks, and avoids international roaming fees. Note that WiFi calling is not the same as VoIP services like google voice or voip.ms. It's done through your mobile SIM provider, so it's using a 100% legit mobile provider number.
  19. Did AseaNow go with a lower bidder troll farm or something because the quality of trolling around here sure has gone downhill lately. No real person is this stupid, to have this kind of response, thinking it's a gotcha or something, not even MAGA.

  21. I do, because he looks funny. He also appears to skip leg day, which makes him look even funnier.
  22. Another mind expanding show. Isn't he like 4'10 or something? You almost never see pictures of him standing next to anyone because it makes him look like a dwarf.
