  1. Now 16 and that number is probably growing.
  2. This was predicted a while back. You can't put two indescribably egotistic nepo babies together, sharing their dirty little secrets with each other, and not expect their bromance to ultimately blow up.
  3. No WAY this could possibly be a fake, right?
  4. FINALLY! Some BRUTAL honesty. Kudos!!! 😂😍
  5. We may be in for some actual "truth in advertising" moments: https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/us/snacks-like-mms-skittles-and-doritos-not-recommended-for-human-consumption-in-us-heres-what-the-texas-bill-proposes/articleshow/121631880.cms?from=mdr
  6. I think the op was too brief. Bob Tuco's posts go on and on and on and on and . . .
  7. I hope you retrieve your info. Then, make two separate backups in different physical locations. I did the system backups where I used to work, we had a saying "If it's not backed up then it doesn't exist."
  8. A light bulb really came on big and bright for me while watching "The Devil's Advocate" - the quote "What about love?" is spoken by Kevin Lomax (played by Keanu Reeves) to John Milton (played by Al Pacino), as a question about the perceived value of love. Milton's response is "Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate." That's it!
  9. No. Hamas invaded and threatened the people with death if they didn't support them.
  10. It used to bother me to find myself pulled over in Pattaya for not wearing a helmet then seeing the BiB letting Thais drive on by with no helmets. Then it finally sunk in - TITS. Now, no bother. And I STILL wear a helmet no matter where I go. On a similar but different note, one of the nice things about Chanthaburi - I've been here 3 years and have yet to see any BiB stops of any kind. Most of the people don't wear helmets. More relaxed to say the least.
  11. Do a Google search: list of jobs foreigners can do in thailand Interestingly, different browsers gave difference results regarding completeness of results, with Chrome giving the most complete.
  12. I can easily imagine it. Both in and out of uniform.
  13. Maybe the people who don't see it headed towards the textbook definition of an empire need to turn off Fox.
  14. Hey, they're getting real good at writing sternly worded letters. What Dems REALLY need to do is ask themselves "What Would Mitch Do?" then DO IT!
  15. Over the years I've found the routes I can safely ride my pushbike, and I still bring an air pistol with me. Any time I have to use the pistol, when Thais see me they cheer, when farangs see me, I get mixed reactions. And frankly, I don't care. I'm NOT gonna spend time and money going to the hospital for a fkng dog bite.
  16. Currently the FDIC insures accounts up to $250k USD. The current administration wants to eliminate the FDIC. What POSSIBLE reason could they have other than to loot accounts? They most likely won't pull it off, but goddamn, how much more of this can we take?!? https://www.emarketer.com/content/what-fdic-elimination-would-look-like-banks
  17. Surprise! Learn something every day. For all intents and purposes, the US is becoming the textbook definition of an empire. Only the courts are preventing a total autocratic empire but they can only do so much without the power of a military force backing them up. 1. an extensive group of states or countries under a single supreme authority, formerly especially an emperor or empress.
  18. 1. As a species, we have lost our humanity, our ability to be polite when we disagree. 2. Hide that behind the grey sea of anonymity and you get the enormous number of trolls who have degraded this forum. Didn't used to be this way.
  19. There are many parallels between the fall of Rome and where Murikkka is currently headed, and the differences are fast eroding away with this current administration. And you KNOW who will give me any of those cute little red "thumbs down" thingies. They sport similarly colored hats.
