Is it too difficult to translate it to English: "Deservedly" He didn't deserve anything. He was merely unlucky, as all dogs, including soi dogs and stray dogs, have unique personalities. They are individuals.

They insist on calling them "stray" dogs as though they just wandered off from someone's backyard and ended up there. The truth is that they were born and raised there and are fed by the local Thai people. If not, they would not exist. In my local park (Pattaya), a couple on a trike feeds about 100 dogs every morning and night. This is in a public park with signs not to feed the animals. Of course, the food is very cheap and not very nutritious (flavoured rice), so these animals are not healthy and riddled with disease. I feel sad for the dogs. They have a miserable existence and it's cruel to let them exist in the first place. The Thai people feeding these dogs every day think they are doing good by feeding these animals low-quality food, but they are guilty of animal abuse.

This is total nonsense. Most Trump voters have already experienced 4 years of Trump and voted again. If you want to see massive "buyer's remorse" as you call it, that's most Biden voters. The other side has no policies, other than "vote for me because I'm not Trump"... which hasn't worked this time as it did in 2020.

Still, most people would much rather live in 2024 than pre-1920. People didn't live long, and basic now treatable diseases and injuries were a certain death. Most of us living today would have died long ago.

The leftist loonies have lost their minds (including the OP of this thread). The four states (aggregate total) voted 41.9% Republican and 58.10% Democrat. That's 5.583 million Republicans vs 7.741 million Democrats. If there were a vote for secession to Canada, nearly everyone, including the Democrats, would also want to stay in the US.

Your comment is a perfect example of how people don't learn much from history. There was nothing good about a pre-1920 world.

It's a bit premature to call it a clean sweep. The House contest is far from over and not a sure thing. Let's not jump the gun.

My Filipino ex never cheated on me in over 20 years. Your girl probably became a nympho from working in the bar and she had what Filipinos call "an itchy pussy". It's fine, but don't paint all Filipinos with the same brush. Yours is an outlier. From my limited experience, some Thai girls can't get enough, and I'm not talking about bar girls. Talking about Thai girls around the house. My current girl doesn't clean or cook for me but she pleases me in other areas. There are no rules, each girl has her own personality.

Biden won, with ample video evidence available to show him sniffing and fondling children. What Trump did is alleged as there is no evidence, just hearsay.

That's a nice speech, and I generally agree. You spoiled it by saying you didn't vote for Trump. Why was this information necessary? Are you apologizing for supporting Trump even though you didn't vote for him?

This is nonsense. Go to the Philippines and start calling everyone flips and see if they give "2 flooks" about it. You're out of touch. I was not comparing Filipinos with Americans, it was just a comparison of derogatory terms, not races, Snowflake.

You often put yourself forward as an expert on the Philippines, but when asked about what experience you have there, you're always silent. How long did you live there? Did you have many relationships with Filipinos? I have a lot of experience on both sides of the South China Sea, but it's hard to make useful comparisons because relationships are complex and all people are unique individuals with their unique personalities. My Filipino wife was very different to other Filipinos I've met. Perhaps you could list your "for a dozen good reasons" why you prefer Thai women over Filipinos? This comment would suggest you've had a lot of experience with both nationalities. As for me, I prefer to live in Thailand, so after my divorce from a Filipino I need to explore my options with Thai women. To offer some insight into this comparison, there are some very important points to consider. Firstly, let's explore the population demographics of both countries: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thailand: People living below the poverty line - 6.3% (2021 data) Philippines: People living below the poverty line - 18.1% (2021 data) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So the Philippines is much poorer by a factor of 3. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thailand: population 71.8 million Median age: 40 years Population 0 - 14: 30.7% Philippines: population ~ 118 million Median age: 25 years Population 0 - 14: 17% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To summarize, there are about 6 million females below 15 years of age in Thailand vs 18 million in the Philippines. The number in the Philippines will continue to increase while the number in Thailand will reduce due to the much lower fertility rate of Thailand's population. Thailand's population is aging while The Philippines' population continues to grow. There are roughly 3 times more available young females in the Philippines vs Thailand. In the Philippines, unmarried, available females in the 18 - 25 age group without children are easy to find. In Thailand, most foreigners will date older women with children. With the much higher poverty rate in the Philippines you'll find that young, unmarried females without children are often desperate and willing to marry any foreigner they can find. Such is not the case in Thailand. Also to consider is the social welfare system of Thailand is a lot better than in the Philippines, and that's an understatement.

Calling a Filipino a "flip" or a "flipper" is insulting in the extreme, even to me as I was married to a Filipino. It's the equivalent or even worse than a white boy using the N-word in the US.

Currently, there is no divorce in the Philippines, only Annulment, which is a very expensive dark ride into hell. A foreign divorce can be recognized by a court in the Philippines, which takes about 2 years (if you're lucky), and it's expensive. My Ex-wife is going through this process as we speak and I had to travel to the Philippines to testify in court a few months ago. If anyone needs advice on this, send a message - I'm an expert LOL It's only a problem if you get married in the Philippines. If you get married abroad and don't report the marriage to the PSA there are no problems at all.

I'm not American, but your comments here are ridiculous so I felt compelled to comment... carry on!
