Everything posted by it is what it is

  1. all due respect, thailand is simply too politically unpredictable and unstable, what do financial markets hate? unpredictability and lack of political stability.
  2. yea, i get that, you get that, but so many locals don;t seem to understand, they lend money and are surprised/upset when it's not repaid. bizarre.
  3. if you feel so strongly why on earth are you watching them? don;t watch them. it's hardly rocket science.
  4. not only in the countryside, you can get poisonous snakes in the city too
  5. absolutely, it happens back home too, but to a much lesser extent.
  6. and childishly call people names. it's, frankly, pathetic.
  7. eventually reaping the rewards from the 'tablet for every child' initiative. and not before time.
  8. as someone who has traveled, and loved, widely i can report from my extensive research that you get good, bad and amazing lovers in pretty much every country, surprisingly china and mongolia often punched above their weight in the bedroom department. though, for something just a little bit special, i'd always go for a french girl
  9. that's not food. she was probably distracted by the fact a foreigner, who she previously thought were a reasonably intelligent species, was going to eat such processed muck.
  10. here's a couple of tips, one) don't tip, if workers aren't happy with the remuneration for their job they should get another job, two) get another gf, she sounds a right pain. next.
  11. the only poll that matters in the one on election day. however, i do feel, on balance, it's Kamala's to lose
  12. to be honest, only one of them was fighting, the other was shopping.
  13. agree, go along with whatever they ask, i've never had a problem in thailand, but years ago i was working in japan and there was a small issue, i went along with the IO and he was extremely helpful in solving the problem. win win.
  14. sent my Coutts statement, no problems.
  15. quit smoking in my 20s quit drinking in my 30s (still have the odd glass of wine) started exercising in my 40s am currently in excellent mental and physical health, and enjoying an excellent life.
  16. the rioters have begun to be given jail sentences, morons get what they deserve. so happy.
  17. Parliament today rejected the Move Forward Party’s (MFP) proposal to legalise professions related to pornography and the sex toy industry. given that the authorities refuse to enforce existing legislation such activities are effectively 'legal'. which is glaringly obvious to anyone with half a brain.
  18. suspect it is wholly, or partially, AI generated, it's reads pretty nonsensical in parts, or could be both the human author and sub ed are hopeless at their jobs...
  19. having lived and worked in japan, which i suspect the OP hasn't, his assertion is ridiculous, unless you want to buy and live in a heap. the cost of living is high in japan, fortunately i was on a good salary so was able to have a very comfortable life there. it is an interesting and rewarding place to live and work, the locals, once you get to know them, are generally pretty cool.
  20. another guy living the dream in thailand. tbh, if you're so miserable here go somewhere else.
  21. they take a sick form of pleasure in causing inconvenience and hurt to others, stopping families going on holiday, stopping people attending funerals, stopping ambulances taking people to hospital. they deserve all the punishment they receive.
  22. it's unreliable making generalised comments/deductions from one small piece of evidence.
  23. na, just extremely badly managed.
  24. don't blame the messenger, blame the blinkered idiots that revel in believing such divisive, bigoted nonsense. thankfully the police are catching up with an increasing number of these idiots and hauling them up in front of the courts. personally, i hope they throw away the key.
  25. Sorry but accidents are not avoidable, of course accidents are avoidable, e.g. guy drinks alcohol, drives, has an accident - easily avoidable; don't drink and drive.
