  1. Judging by what you post on this forum, you've set the low bar for limitations of mind. No one goes to a car park to overdose - that's a ridiculous suggestion. I have no idea what building jumping has to do with a carpark - care to explain? If he jumped from a building into a carpark, that would have been reported as such. When is the last time you heard of someone going to a carpark to suicide? Murders disguised as suicides are certainly not unique. Now please, stop posting while you are shagging.
  2. I can't think of any circumstances where a person would suicide in a carpark unless he was in his own car or a rental. The story is his body was found in a carpark, not in a car. The only likely scenario is his body was dumped there. A very thorough investigation is required, and the mother is doing what any parent would do in this situation. The RTP don't care - they want this over and done with quickly. The last thing they want is a story about a young tourist being murdered on the streets of Bangkok getting out.
  3. Mental acuity, reflexes and eyesight vary with individuals, so age alone should not be a factor in the decision to drive or not. One person could be a risk at 60, another not until 80 or older.
  4. and with cbd, keep a very close eye on liver function. This is especially important for a recovering alcoholic that might have already caused extensive damage to the liver over years of alcohol abuse. Even moderately compromised liver function would not be a good starting point for cbd use. With any drug use the liver function should be closely monitored in the OP's case. Liver function tests are cheap and easy in Thailand.
  5. Yet the bombing of Hisoshima and Nagasaki did not end it. It was the Soviet declaration of war on Japan that ended it, but to save face the Japanese blamed the nukes. The events that lead to their surrender are quite complex.
  6. Yeah, and if Putin was assassinated, the chances are even higher that they'll end up with someone worse. That would be a perfect excuse for someone tougher to rise to the fore.
  7. Another common prediction is that if Putin is replaced, his successor will be even more tyrannical and the situation will get worse. Russian has had a lot worse than Putin over its checkered past.
  8. When you were 17 you thought a 19 year old was an older woman, so later on you left her for someone of your own age? LOL Your question: "do you want a 95 year old wife when you are 70?" That's not likely to happen, but the question should be: does your wife want a 55 year old husband when she's 30 or a 65 year old husband when she is 40? Apart from possible financial benefits the answer is "no thanks". I hate the break the news, but it's unlikely a female 25 years younger than you is attracted to you for your looks or vitality. Get real - you're buying a younger partner. If you start quite young with a big age gap, you'll find the gap widens as you age.
  9. The point is that love is blind. Also, the girl could be worth it AND the value of 1 million baht is relative to a person's financial status. Each case is unique. Do we criticize people spending millions on an engagement ring. What's the difference? What about people spending millions on a wedding? There are wedding dresses that cost more than $1 million.
  10. You could do us all a favour and wear a T-shirt: "I'm Bob Smith from Asean Now" so we can avoid inadvertently talking to you. I don't have a lot of time for sanctimonious, bigoted, self-righteous people who think they are better than everyone else. An attitude like that puts you beneath the people you're criticizing.
  11. You think? I'll put money down he'll be back to pay it. As another member mentioned, it's less than the cost of most decent cars in Thailand. The decision has a lot to do with the American's personal finances. For some guys it would be peanuts.
  12. Most temples were built from decades to centuries ago. For example, the newest temple in Pattaya, the Sanctury of Truth, still under construction, is over 40 years old. The temples on Pratunmak Hill are about 80 years old... They stopped putting temples everywhere a long time ago as there are already nearly 34.000 Buddhist temples in current use across Thailand. Temples run on a merit economy, and any fees collected from tourists help with their upkeep. Footpaths on city streets are a local municipal concern, paid for from local land taxes, and in most cases, not paid at all. What does one concern have to do with the other? They are totally unrelated.
  13. As the current most prolific contributor on Asean Now, what if you had to try to live without this forum? What if you had to stop asking dumb questions on here? What would you do with your spare time? Would you contemplate suicide?
  14. No, the boobs didn't give it away either in a couple of examples which come to mind... and the other important asset which I won't mention didn't give it away either LOL. There is a type of silky Asian skin that seems to be very flexible and resistant to stretch damage.
  15. It seems to be some expats expect the average working Thai in a corner store should be an ambassador for Thai hospitality. They have no such obligation. It's not their job. They don't get paid by the government - The Tourism Authority of Thailand. Back in most expat's home countries, do they suck up to tourists in order to make them feel more welcome? I used to live in a famous tourist city in Australia, and most locals found the tourists annoying, unless of course their business was actually a tourist related business in which case sucking up was part of the job description.
  16. You're right. It's a bit strange to complain about Facebook via posting on here. The only difference is that here the attacks are anonymous, whereas your enemies on Facebook are usually known. Facebook is going down fast anyway. The younger generations are leaning toward other media, Tiktok the #1 choice now. Now the stress is not so much about bullying, but how many likes and followers they have. If the youngsters can't get likes they are more likely to end their lives prematurely due to the despair caused by being unpopular.
  17. It's a huge improvement on VPNs, which are detectable anyway. You're not disguising your location, you are accessing your own virtual PC from inside the destination country. There are a huge number of providers for people requiring VPSs in the USA.
  18. Once you've set it up, your PC is basically in the country where your VPS server is located. You're accessing your virtual PC remotely from Thailand. I've been using them from Thailand for 5 years. Provided you find a good company, your Internet speeds will be much faster too. If you need to find the best service for Europe, PM me. There is another option that is even better, but much more expensive - a dedicated server. Most companies provide both options.
  19. A better solution is getting your own VPS or VPS root server. It's like having a PC in your destination country. I've used VPSs in Europe and USA. For example my current server is in Germany, the Internet speed is 2 Gbps and it costs about 11 Euro per month. You connect to it via Windows RDP. I use them for trading but you could run any business on them.
  20. Actually this is a falsehood. I've seen mothers with bodies with absolutely no signs of child birth. No stretch marks, no scars, no loose skin.
  21. In airports, where people have luggage, the concrete stairs would most certainly not be safer. One person in many decades of operation having a leg chewed off by a travelator does not make this mode of transportation dangerous.
  22. It depends on what you're doing. It's not perfect if you like to get off your a** and do vigorous physical exercise. In that case, 20 - 25C is perfect. My gym is held at 27C with fans, and my bedroom is 26C. Just in case you missed the point, and I think you did... 30C was the annual average termperature. An average taken for 24 hours x 365 days. The humidity is also another very important factor to consider.
  23. I'm not complaining about the temperatures and have lived here for nearly 18 years, but... I was showing that the temperature in Thailand is as hot as it gets (not max, but average annual). What you THINK of the temperature is irrelavent as the facts speak for themselves. It's a very hot country.
  24. If that is your philosophy, then the smart move is to stay single. To go into a serious relationship with such a philosophy would be rather stupid.
