Of course it matters

The past doesn't count for anything. The current government are keeping the workforce sick by under-investing in the NHS (the "let's fund the NHS" brexit crowd in staggering short supply now), thus keeping the workforce on benefits. They need people claiming benefits because that's yet another group of people to demonize in their ridiculous culture wars. Yes. British social services used to be good. You get no argument from me there.

That would certainly explain a lot of the user generated content on this site...

How is being misogynistic difficult to disprove? Or being racist, for that matter.

Men, mostly, I assume 😁

I absolutely agree. If I didn't live in a city then the Aerox or Click 160 would be an ideal choice. The OP, however, lives in Bangkok. I've ridden an Aerox through central bkk and there wasn't a single journey of significant length where the extra girth of the frame didn't cause some minor or major inconvenience. I put up the inconvenience it as I liked to take it for a long trip on the odd weekend. But if it was exclusively for city riding, or the longer trips were few and far between, I'd choose a smaller frame all the time.* *well, to a point. 125 is a bare minimum in this country.

I'm not an expat loser alcoholic yet. But it's something I'm aspiring to. With your financial support, and expertise in the area, I'm sure I could make it happen, Bob.

"Ladyboy" is not an occupation.

Let's see A driverless taxi can't be drunk A driverless taxi can't be distracted due sleepdeprivation, trying to earn extra money when they are clearly in no state to be driving A driverless taxi can't be distracted due to having a bad day, having split up with his/her bf/gf/gik, had an argument with a friend, or dealing with some other financial and emotional issue. A driverless taxi can't overcharge, either deliberately or accidentally. A driverless taxi can't get either offended, or unwelcomly interested, when my girlfriend whips her knickers off. Software can have bugs. But bugs can be fixed. Human qualities are more difficult to alter.

I used the wrong terminology. My bad. @papa al knew what I meant... Filtering.

What lifestyle did he think it would be?

They are not the same size at all. The Aerox was noticeably more difficult to weave through traffic, and to park in the tiny parking spaces found on the streets and in motorcycle sections of car parks. It was also significantly heavier, making it more awkward manoeuvring by hand in a tight spot. I don't see how ABS helps with any of that, but good luck finding a Click 160 with abs right now, anyway. If you can find one, please let me know where!

General consensus amongst who, exactly?

Agree to disagree, I guess. In a big city, I'd say that the smaller size of a 125 far outweighs the advantages of faster acceleration. (I've had both a Click 125 and an Aerox 155 so I'm able to compare...)

No I don't. I welcome an explanation.

Lol so now PR is to blame for your bad life choices? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds.

No I'm afraid I don't know. Hopefully somebody else will be able to fill you in there.

I see. Context is a valuable tool when getting involved in a conversation...

If you only have a CBT you won't be able to get an international license for riding a bike. It is not, as you claim, a "motorcycle license up to 125cc". It is a permit to use a motorcycle with an engine size no more than 125cc for the purposes of learning to ride.

Of course it is. But the thing is that you live, presumably at least partially, in the real world. It has been pointed out to you several times that these cards were not designed as a tool for the consumer. That you find it convenient to keep hold of a bunch of them is fine. But if you decide to do so, it's up to you to make sure you're doing it right. It's a good job that you weren't around in the paper voucher days; those generally had to be used on the same day. I dread to think how upsetting you would have found that!

Blaming a video game for somebody being shot is like blaming a spoon when you get food poisoning...

Sure. But the one small difference is that guns are designed to cause harm, and kill. It was their sole purpose for being invented*. The same cannot be said for video games. *I know that people these days use guns for sport/entertainment, but that is not what they were built for. That came later.

I think Labor suppoters almost universally condemned the war at the time. But what could they do? The Tory party were, at the time, supporting the war. So even if the war was your biggest vote-deciding issue, you had no way to express it. Blair's biggest let down was backing down on PR. We wouldn't be in the mess we are now if he'd managed to get a sensible electorial system in place.

Some good advice there but I'd say even 160cc is overkill for Bangkok. You're never going to need that power. When I was living there I had a Yamaha Aerox 155 but only because I was living and working on the outskirts of Bangkok and would occasionally use it to go on longer trips out of town on weekends. Therefore the compromise of a slightly bigger bike made sense to me at the time. If I had been in central Bangkok, or if I wasn't planning on the longer journeys, I would have gotten a 125. And that's having already had 20 years of experience riding bikes (scooters). The fact that the OP has apparently never even ridden a bike before only makes me want to double down on my suggestion: Get a 125!

A genius girl is going to have no time for somebody who can't manage to even figue out how to deal with the minor problem that you quoted directly above, but good luck, anyway!
