  1. Nah, you would probably be the last person on the planet I would meet up with. But please, point out where I have posted that there are no cheap restaurants? I never posted or said they don´t exist. I know you are trying here to get right, as you couldn´t in the initial tread, when you tried to back track. It was the thread about that Thailand was cheaper 20 years ago, right? You know, the discussion that you lost miserably. So, if you get 22,5% less for your money today, than 20 years ago, does that mean I said cheap restaurants don´t exist? You know, what people consider cheap, is also on an individual level. You seem to get tangled up in most of your threads. How would it be to start thinking before posting? For you, I actually think that´s a real life-changing experience.
  2. Ok 😂 Hope it stays at that stage.
  3. Oh dear! You really try to get yourself out of this, right? What we initially discussed, has nothing to do with different interests or tastes! What we discussed was a thing that are connected to all foreigners that´s been living in Thailand for many years. The fact still remains. Thailand is not cheaper today, than 20 years ago. Is it really so hard to get around that, and agree that you were wrong? What are you going to say next? That people who wear sunglasses, will not see the difference, and therefore they believe it´s cheaper. You wear sunglasses, right? 😂
  4. You seem to have a very complexed life. A bubble for everything. Is that for you to remember, or is it just because it becomes unmanageable for you otherwise?
  5. Experience is talking again. 😂
  6. Ok, Ben is a naughty boy. First, he excuses himself with that he didn´t have the courage to say no. Then he receives the happy ending, and after goes home a sues the masseuse. More mind boggling, the court agrees with him. It´s just to say no, and tell the others working there what was offered. Little Ben cannot eat the cake and have it. Unfortunately, the court agreed with that.
  7. Where is the guy with all the crazy ideas when we really need him. Now he has to go back to the drawing board and make a plan for designated baby making shops!
  8. More Israelis in Thailand is making the news.
  9. That´s good! Hopefully he will get a big sentence!
  10. Unnecessary death! Everyone knows that you seek immediate help if you get bitten by an animal.
  11. Sure it´s better in many ways. However, in the economic department you were wrong.
  12. No, it´s not. You are getting richer in real terms compared to the currency fluctuations. That you get more money from your country does not affect the reality.
  13. But you started to post that Thailand is cheaper than 20 years ago. So, that´s my point. You don´t get more for your money, so therefore more expensive. That you have more money, makes you can afford more, but the 22,5% still stands.
  14. Yes, I make sense. You are posting that Thailand got cheaper today, than 20 years ago, when the fact is that you get 22,5% less for your money. That you got more money, does not make Thailand cheaper. Same as I referred to before. If you win the lottery, does that mean it´s cheaper in every country today, compared with 20 years ago? But, I know, I am talking to a wall.
  15. You still don´t get it! You have more money, but that does not relate to that Thailand has become cheaper. You still get 22,5% less for the money you have. Get it now, or is it glue in the coinbox, so the baht don´t fall down?
  16. Yeah, we all know you feel the need to tell everyone what they should and have to do.
  17. That wages go up, regards all the western world countries. If you have more money or not, is totally irrelevant here. If so, you could say that you won a lottery, and then it got cheaper in Thailand. That´s ridiculous! The fact still remains. Disregarding how much money a person has, the currency fluctuation tells all the proof you need. For your money, you get 22,5% less than 20 years ago. So, as you see, you didn´t educate anybody. The only thing you achieved was to make yourself look dumber to the rest.
  18. You are amazing. First you say that Thailand is cheaper now, than 20 years ago. To come to that conclusion, you take away the currency fluctuations against the Thai baht. How in the world can you do that? That way the topic fails to deliver, as you in reality argue directly with yourself. Even if you try to state that the prices remain same, you still get 22,5% less buying power. In reality, that tells you its 22,5% more expensive now. That´s just pure facts. However, you are probably going to argue about that too, as that is the single reason you have for start all your threads
  19. I will take a wild guess. I think they came into contact with water.
  20. I know one thing. I don´t need an excuse for planning my own life, making my own decisions and not let you make them for me.
  21. yeah, maybe they should, as it seems to be a lot of people today that can´t keep up and understand things by themselves.
  22. Yeah, I always thought you would get a kick out of that.
  23. Sounds to me it was just a <removed> again, that don´t know the consequences of such behavior in Thailand. However, not at all right to stab the guy for that, and the Thai guy has to be dealt with.
  24. In other countries this is well known and don´t need to be advertised. Most people know they must keep up to date with their digital gadgets for receiving the latest security updates. So, this is a good move. You need to buy a new phone, go ahead and do it.
