  1. It's all part of the dumbing down of the American populace which has now spread across the globe. The laugh track was one of the WORST inventions in the evolution of "entertainment." People can now completely zone out and shove deadly garbage in their mouths while the screen dictates their thoughts and emotions.
  2. Pride is one of the 7 deadly sins, brother. 😉
  3. There is another article that explained how a blocked oil port (or something like that) added to the problem. Yes, motorbikes aren't going to start going all "Spinal Tap" around the country.
  4. China Air once gave me a business class upgrade. Like they say, "the first one's free." Can't every go back now.
  5. I returned from a trip to the US on 10 April. I went to Chanthaburi immigration and they said no need for the TM-30 since I went back to the same condo in which I live full time. A week later I spent 3 days in Pattaya. They required a TM-30 to report my return, and they went over that sumbitch with a fine tooth comb.
  6. The thing about aluminum vs aluminium - years back, Alcoa Aluminum became a household name and aluminum became synonymous for aluminium, the same as Xerox went from a noun to a verb. Yes, the element is aluminium and the foil is aluminum.
  7. Watch Jodie Foster's movie "Nell" to REALLY understand how to speak.
  8. When searching for Lazada items, I go the the Google machine, enter what I'm looking for, then add the word Lazada at the end of the search. MUCH better than the native Lazada search engine.
  9. I sure wish they would fix their website. YES, they also do American passports. VERY proficient and great folks to deal with. Just off of Soi Buakhao.
  10. Just think of the millions of gallons (or litres if you wish) of ink saved by dropping the "u" from words like color, flavor, etc. Also: The first recorded use of the word "soccer" to refer to the ball was in 1486, and the first use as a verb in 1599. The word "soccer" originated as an Oxford "-er" slang abbreviation of "association", and is credited to late nineteenth century English footballer, Charles Wreford-Brown.
  11. I used these folks last year to renew my US passport: https://thaivisa-express.com/ I cannot speak highly enough about their service. They caught a mistake (f***ing photo shop sold me UK photos vice US photos) that would have been costly. To me that was WELL worth the small added expense and the girls are quite fetching there to boot.
  12. When I wear this shirt, I get applause and people buying me beer.
  13. New to Thailand, are you?
  14. I've been living in Chanthaburi a few years now. I just came to Pattaya to see friends, and GODDAM the traffic is horrendous!!! I doubt I could ever move back now. Nice place to visit but . . .
  15. Does this possibly mean a relaxing of the rules for hospitals using morphine, codeine or Oxycodone as pain relievers? It's my understanding they were very hesitant to use them even in the most legit cases.
  16. You've obviously never been a bicyclist in Thailand.
  17. EVERY time I've used my air gun to deter those nasty vermin and am witnessed by locals, they CHEER.
  18. Air pellet pistol, using the PLASTIC and not metal pellets. No real harm and it's more the sound that scares them that does the trick.
  19. You merely prove the point, you don't care WHAT crap they shovel into your mind as long as it's done by a bubble-headed bleach blond. But hey - you do you, sunshine.
  20. She flushes things more intelligent than you'll ever hope to be.
  21. (D)eflect. Weak.
  22. (D)eny (O)bfuscate 2/5 - you can do better than that.
