I never thought I'd live to see it, but I think that low life is finally gonna get his come-uppins. Too many walls closing in, too many co-conspirators pleading guilty. And to anyone still trying to defend him - C'MON! You can't make this stuff up, he can't be the ONLY ONE not guilty, for cryin' out loud!

You're trying to make a case about the real world. The tangerine traffic cone of treason has lived on planet Earth-2 his whole life. I am sure if his name was attached to a deal, it was assumed to be dirty but it better damned well go through or that maniac could make your life hell. How many lives has be destroyed, how many careers failed because he gave a thumbs down? We'll never really know.

I've lost track - how many times has this been a news article?

Excel spreadsheet gives me -458. Were you shooting for 42?

No. Example: I wanted a 5 meter usb cable. I went to both only to go home empty handed. You want to upgrade your motherboard or buy extra ram? Not there. You can't compare any mall stores to Tukcom.

I've been living here for a little over a year. Nice place to ride a bike. One Big C, one Tesco, the obligatory Makro. NO Tukcom or anything CLOSE to it. The only reason I am here is for the teaching gig, and once I finish that, I will never return.

Kanchanaburi isn't Chanthaburi.

"One hub to find them ..."

Just about out of hub topics.

I'm teaching in Chanthaburi. The parents have requested teachers to continue masking up, and the kids are masked about 50% of the time. Most people around town are still masked, though little by little they're going naked on the face.

Yup - and here we all are! 😁

Really?!?!? You don't say!!!

Rex Harrison was a true hero!

HERE's the REAL problem!

It's commonly understood corruption is an acceptable daily part of Thai life, and schools are no exception. I worked on and off for 10 years at several branches of the largest private school system in Southeast Asia. The advice given to all new farang teachers from existing farang teachers: "We're not here to teach, we're here to give the appearance of teaching." Of course that was a little tongue in cheek, but there was a lot of truth to that statement. The examples of corruption ran strong with that school, from the directors on down. If they can avoid paying a promotion or any other bonus to a returning teacher, well it's just cheaper to let that teacher go and get another fresh victim.

<kidding> And could we PLEASE teach these kids it's SOCCER, not FOOTBALL?!? </kidding>

You must be new to Thailand. (rhetorical satire!!!)

The only judge who openly appears to be favoring a criminal is Aileen Cannon. legal experts have called her rulings “Dopey and Constitutionally Dubious” She has also been labeled as 45's personal defense attorney.

I looked at renting one for a weekend getaway when I was working in Chonburi. Far too small for living full time.

And, of COURSE, you can back that nasty remark up with facts, yes? Yes?

199 on the second vote! MWUHAHAHAHA!!! He's goin' down like The Titanic.

I heard rumors that AN is going AI to screen posts. Any truth to that? Also, the button to go back to the top of the page is gone. Temporary "fix" or an "improvement?"

I am a binge drinker, 3 or 4 times a year. I enjoy the hell out of each bout. I tried drinking moderately on a daily basis for a few days, it just wasn't fun the 2nd day on. To answer your question - not me.

This lying liar also defended Gym Jordan's record as a coach. Even Republicans couldn't buy into that one, audibly gasping as she spewed that nonsense. Jordan is an election denier and was directly involved in the 1/6 insurrection. If he becomes Speaker, he will have direct influence on which electoral votes are counted. What could possible go wrong with that scenario?

Of COURSE you would provide a link that has a pay wall so we can't see your "evidence."
