  6. 1. Everyone is white, although the tacky middle classes will endeavour to look brown. 2. Everyone lives in thatched cottages with rose covered porches. 3. Everyone goes to Church on a Sunday 4.

People who go to Oxbridge are your betters and should be respected as such. ....I could go on. Feel free to add to the list.
  7. I read the other day....although this will be trashed or demands for footage or 'real" quotes will be made......that large numbers of Trump fans were visibly bored and on their smartphones during Trump's acceptance speech.....could have been left wing agent Provocateurs I guess?
  8. For me it happens rarely, but does seem related to fatigue. Best for you to see a quack regardless I guess.
  9. With a nod and a wink...... Eyelid twitching, medically known as myokymia, is a common and usually benign condition. Several factors can contribute to this involuntary muscle spasm: 1. Stress: High levels of stress can cause various physical reactions, including muscle twitches. Eyelid twitching is often one of these responses. 2. Fatigue: Lack of sleep or general fatigue can lead to eyelid twitching. Ensuring adequate rest can help alleviate this symptom. 3. Caffeine: Excessive consumption of caffeine or other stimulants can trigger muscle spasms, including those in the eyelid. 4. Eye Strain: Prolonged use of screens (computer, phone, tablet) can strain the eye muscles and lead to twitching. Taking regular breaks and practicing the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds) can help reduce eye strain. 5. Dry Eyes: Dry eye syndrome can cause irritation, leading to muscle twitches. Using lubricating eye drops can help alleviate this condition. 6. Nutritional Imbalances: Deficiencies in certain nutrients, such as magnesium, can cause muscle twitches. A balanced diet or supplements might help if this is the cause. 7. Allergies: Allergies can cause irritation and inflammation in the eyes, leading to twitching. Managing allergies with medication or avoiding allergens can help.
  10. Required every year at Chaiyaphum IO, even though our address never changes......they never visit though....three hour round trip.
  11. The only thing I could say is........ four years inside a Glasgow jail as a kiddy fiddler......will seem like a lifetime!!
  12. Not to be watch Trump sycophants.....you would find it too upsetting.
  13. 5555 You know he does....he is gaslighting you.
  14. A high-velocity round traveling above the speed of sound and passing close to the ear will cause temporary or even permanent hearing damage, including deafness...... 1. Intensity of the Sound: The sonic boom produced by a supersonic bullet is very loud. This sudden, intense sound can cause acoustic trauma, which is a physical injury to the hearing mechanisms in the inner ear. The closer the bullet is to the ear, the louder the sonic boom and the greater the risk of damage. 2. Proximity: The distance between the bullet and the ear is crucial. A bullet passing extremely close to the ear generates a louder noise than one passing farther away. The shock wave and the sound pressure level diminish with distance. 3. Duration of Exposure: Even though the exposure is brief, the intensity of the noise from a supersonic bullet passing close by can be enough to cause immediate harm.
  15. We had a similar problem with illegal parking and litter.....someone.....not me.....very quickly solved the problem.....one day, half a dozen of the buses developed punctured tyres......they soon moved on.
  16. As an avid supporter of Trump I'm amazed you don't know....555 Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or group makes someone question their own reality, memory, or perceptions. It is a tactic often used to gain power and control over the victim. The term comes from the 1944 film “Gaslight,” where a husband manipulates his wife into believing she is losing her sanity by dimming the gaslights in their home and then denying that the lights changed when she notices. Key characteristics of gaslighting include: 1. Denial: The gaslighter denies actions or statements that they have made, even when there is evidence to the contrary. This causes the victim to doubt their own memory and perceptions. 2. Misdirection: The gaslighter may change the subject or shift blame to avoid being confronted about their behavior. This deflects attention away from the manipulator’s actions. 3. Trivializing: The gaslighter belittles or dismisses the victim’s feelings and concerns, making them feel insignificant and undermining their confidence. 4. Withholding Information: The gaslighter might withhold information from the victim or lie about certain events to confuse and destabilize them. 5. Questioning Sanity: The gaslighter often accuses the victim of being overly sensitive, irrational, or even mentally unstable, further making them doubt their own mind. The goal of gaslighting is to make the victim feel uncertain about their thoughts, perceptions, and reality, which can lead to confusion, low self-esteem, and dependency on the gaslighter. This form of manipulation is often seen in abusive relationships, both personal and professional, and can have severe emotional and psychological effects on the victim.
  17. What am I missing.....what has the Paris Olympics got to do with attracting French tourists to Thailand???
  18. Same as Boris Johnson.....when he was at 'death's door' during his covid experience.
  19. A fool and his money...... We had a load of staff scammed a few years ago by Americans (not really relevant) who were travelling around Europe claiming to look for footballing talent and offering big contracts as football (soccer?) was taking off big time in the US. You just had to pay £2000 per child upfront to cover the cost of the trials......a lot paid up in the hope their little cherubs would be the next Messi.
  20. High-velocity bullets typically remain supersonic for distances ranging from several hundred yards to over a mile.
