  1. Sorry, I do NOT follow the new dictionaries that change the definition of words to satisfy special interest groups. ... Semitic is a region, not a country or religion (defined below) ... vaccines are designed to 'prevent' being infected, not help elevate symptoms only. ... trans people & 72 genders aren't real in my world ... 3 sexual genders; hetero, bi & gay, along with 2 sexes M & F ... men can't have babies ... they & them - "used to refer to two or more people or things previously mentioned or easily identified" Wiki & dictionaries have been compromised by the PC woke folks. No longer a viable source of info in my world. I was taught & learned the English & American language for 50+ years, so I'll stick with the real, first version. If going to call someone anti semitic, you may want to specify your meaning. Arabic / Islam anti semitism and the 'Crusades' come to mind.
  2. I never ventured upstairs, too many scams reported 😁
  3. Online shopping is for thrifty, lazy shoppers. Those with a bit of patience (lots on weekend), more money, and prefer finer dining, that offers parking for one's oversize SUV (of small MG ZS) & pick up trucks, enjoy the 'convenience' of malls. If you can't afford to drive 4 wheels, or spend ฿1000+ for a meal (for 2), without alcohol, then you probably don't frequent malls much. Unless for the AC and a bowl of noodles in food court.
  4. Had to fulfill that 2 garment requirement, shoes and Gstring, while shaking on stage and serving suds. Just lovely OK, a couple things have changed 🙄
  5. There you have it, Anti Semitic is vastly, something else. The ignorance of the expression is staggering. I can only wonder who made it about Jews, but Semitic covers a much larger area than Israel or the Jewish religion. As shown by this map ...
  6. Winning wars = biggest profits for defense contractors. Nobody wins wars better than the USA. The longer the conflict, the bigger the profit. In the corporate world, they aren't wars, simply market expansion.
  7. There's a huge middle & upper income bracket in TH, inclusive, that love the malls. Don't know about CN or ID, but wasn't a fan of malls in the USA, as pretty crap, and why most seemed to have failed there also. CP & Central Group, and Mall Group seem to have it down to a science.
  8. Far from a racist, and just against the Israel govt and the expansionist zionist. Terroristm doesn't get my vote either. Seems their religion, both, many believe the only they are entitled to exist. I don't like racist / extreme religious folks, so if that makes me a racist, oh well. Too many Jews believe in Kahanism. Too many Muslim believe infidels should convert or die. Not sure what that has to do with me living in TH, with a Thai family. Coming from the melting pot of the USA, loving so many ethnic groups. Might have even had sex with a few ... shh. Impossible to be a racist & happy surrounded by such diversity.
  9. open the border bring back all the criminals that were deported men in female sports men in the girls restroom DEI quotes for employment & advancement, no matter seniority or training raise taxes on top 20% earners to give free sh!t to bottom 50% give drugs to gender confused children without their parents knowledge force people to use improper English and fire them for not using proper pronoun
  10. Killing people is legitimate ... whoa, that's a new one.
  11. I didn't notice any new Draconian rules, just enforcement of current ones. Also get my yearly retirement extension, and so simple. Just have to provide my address & income. Same as it always was since 2000. Nothing has changed for non 0 visa, just enforcement due to so many expats not following the rules.
  12. No ... but my neighborhood doesn't need an app to track human feces ... ... "Snapcrap is a mobile application developed to report and track human feces on streets and sidewalks in San Francisco," ... App developer's thoughts ... ... "Arriving in San Francisco I moved to San Francisco in May of 2017. I was fresh out of college and had spent the previous 6 months desperately searching for a job in the Bay Area so that I could finally fulfill my dream of moving to California, the greatest state in the country. I can’t believe I actually thought that at the time. It took me about 1 day to realize that this place was in major trouble. Take a quick walk through most neighborhoods and you’ll notice the human and animal waste, needles, trash, and other refuse that litters the streets and sidewalks. Don’t believe me? Just check out these photos." ... https://medium.com/@miller.stowe/snapcrap-why-i-built-an-app-to-report-poop-on-the-streets-of-san-francisco-aac12382a7ce
  13. @BuffaloRider Unlike our EV's LFP battery, that doesn't use child labor for cobalt, I'm guessing you use batteries with cobalt for your devices; phone, laptop, and other appliances, devices that use AA, AAA, C, D or any of those numbered coin lithium batteries. Also guess you know the meaning of hypocrite, and how it applies to some people. Hope you at least use rechargeable lithium batteries, as I do.
  14. Neither, I'm the same, as is TH. TH upped their infrastructure, but the rest is the same.
  15. Lots of expats left TH about 6 yrs ago, as that's when TH Imm stopped accepting, self sworn, unverified 'income statements' from embassies. Coincidence I'm sure.
  16. I guess his 2017 DUI didn't teach him anything, or his rollover crash (again) in 2021, that almost killed him. You can't fix stupid
  17. She forgot to mention in CA, walking around human feces & drug needles. I've never had a soi dog chase me, or even bark at me, I think. Lots barking (pets) from behind walls or fenced areas.
  18. BS, stop reading MSM controlled by big oil. Enlighten yourself about LFP batteries, having no cobalt in them. Our battery has a low estimate of lasting about 1M kms, which is 50+ yrs driving for us. That should outlast the car itself, along with myself & wife. Ignorance is bliss. You should google info yourself. ... "Yes, the 2022 MG ZS EV facelift features a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery, specifically for the Standard Range model to offer improved stability, longevity (up to 3,000+ cycles), and allows for regular 100% charging." ... 1 cycle = 340 kms Key 2022 MG ZS EV Battery Details: Battery Type: LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) - Prismatic cells. Myth: Electric cars require cobalt, the mining of which u...False. The Tesla Model 3, Wuling’s Hongguang Mini, the best-selling electric car in China, and Tata Motors Tiago EV all use LFP batteries, which contain no cobalt.https://www.rethinkx.com/faq-and-mythbusting/myth-electric-cars-require-cobalt-the-mining-of-which-uses-child-labor
  19. People love tobacco & alcohol also, but it may kill them 😁
  20. Really don't have a problem with dual pricing. Certainly don't expect to be covered under the gold card program at govt hosp, since not paying into the fund. I can go to USA National Park, unlimited, for small annual fee, admits me free as a senior, although Thais / non US citizen pay full price at all. Not easy to enter USA or EU on tourist visa, or free/low cost. But USA get visa exempt here in TH. Stop crying, and walk with your feet if don't want to pay.
  21. Anyone looking for a inexpensive, feature packed drone, take a peek at FIMI, having one of their promos. Extra batteries also on sale $49, and always buy extra 2 batteries from the manufacture of. Add plus, it has a Sony camera sensor. https://store.fimi.com/?syclid=ebb1f069-e565-4ebb-8d93-6a82f86ccaec FIMI made the Xiaomi MI drone (one of their first), and my previous favorite vid/photo drone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvK2ioud_MY&list=PLIhq05FipwQae2UPbVvuAsS9zwuro9IIP Whoa ... that was fast, w/tracking # I'll update how it gets thru customs, duty ???

  22. So my tax dollars are to pay for someone who wasn't a slave, who's ancestors may have never been slaves. Or, they may have been slave traders themselves. When I never owned slaves, my ancestor didn't own slaves, lived in a state (PA) that helped & protected escaped slaves, and fought in a war against slavery. OK, makes perfect sense to me. Any children out there you'd like me to pay child support to, who's mother I never had sex with.
  23. Yes, I do the same. Others seem to buy this thing called petrol, that they have to go to the petrol store, to pay for. They get in line, to wait for someone to puts it in their vehicles. Doesn't last very long, so they have to go back like every week to repeat the process, and keep buying more. It's not good for their motors, and seems to degrade every part it comes in contract with, and the exhaust rots out the pipes. So they have to replace parts and buy a new car, every 5 or 10 years, before it dies. They sell the old ones to poor people that can't afford to buy new ones. They seem to be able to keep them running a bit longer. Strange addictive habit, but they seem to like the way they vibrate, sound & smells. Go figure.
