When I was a young vagabond, getting them to stay after one pop was a challenge. Twenty years later, getting them to leave was a headache. Twenty years on, the pleasures of waking up alone is simply bliss.

Wow! The million dollar question! Because, someone get payed enough to do such thing. You mean someone is getting paid enough NOT to do such a thing, no? It's probably when the payola stops that it all gets a bit sweaty.

Not yet it isn't. Just like it took the best part of a century for our familiar old epithets and nicknames to become unpolitically correct, who knows when the poor, disenfranchised, itinerant Russkie(y) exiles and emigres will need to be re-labeled because someone, probably non-Slavic, is upset on their behalf.

Good tune. My petty whine is about the new age traveler with their wheelie carry-on suitcase that are no longer towed behind but held at arms-length to the side and ever so slightly ahead as they sweep, double-wide, through crowded airport lobbies.

Ahh, yes, patience, otherwise known to Thai's as, shut up farang, and obey, or leave. Well, well, well, here's three members who think it is all about me, me, me.

I provided two links with regard to questions, including facts, about Google's bias. I believe the lack of links to support this claim as offered by @radiochaser was your core complaint? Just because you chose to ignore the links or not read them doesn't make them BS. I pointed out that the forum's request for "Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source" that you have re-posted in support of "mandatory" links appears on the Word News forum ONLY and not in THIS forum. It certainly doesn't appear in the Forum Rules. If you have a spare moment, you can always trawl the 41 Forum Rules and 8 Standards of Conduct for the word "must" as well.

Since it only appears to be you that seeks 'mandatory' links, here's a couple relating to research on Google's political bias among other things. It's not conspiracy theory stuff or fake news. https://ahrefs.com/blog/is-google-biased/ https://www.authoritas.com/blog/are-google-search-results-biased/ BTW, this here is the Thailand News forum and @radiochaser hasn't posted anything in the World News forum to which the additional need for a "valid link to an approved credible source" specifically applies. In the 41 Forum Rules and 8 Standards of Conduct, the word 'mandatory' doesn't appear.

Certainly doesn't know how to dress for a significant appointment at the Interior Ministry either. It's not like he's doing a walk-in 90-day report in Jomtien is it?

<self moderated> More at ten...

It's a fact of life and a rite of passage that the western male owns the TV remote control, so how did you let this happen?

Have you mentioned this to Chuwit?

Mandatory?

Here endeth the first lesson.

In bed you say? I must remember to try that.

What is an ARN? An Acquirer Reference Number, or ARN, is a unique number created in credit or debit Visa® and Mastercard® transactions. The ARN is assigned to a transaction as it moves through a payment flow. ARNs are valuable to fraud and dispute shops, issuers, and merchants.

Prices for many things in the UK, Japan and Botswana are "significantly higher now than they were 9 months ago." Your airfare when you "came back" included. Sheesh...

Or you may have forgotten to brush your teeth.

I'm not a misogynist but the OP will always pay for it one way or another anyway, so what the difference etc etc...

The OP sounds like a greenhorn so in case your post confuses, here's a picture of a keeper.

Totally agree. She should remove the bikini.

...soon to be a blockbuster movie starring Keanu Reeves.

Are you a committed environmentalist or just a casual tree hugger?

But what else can they whine about? (rhetorical)

Yes, but how many countries will give you visa-free entry on your British passport compared to a Thai passport issued anywhere?

And issued there & then. I think you may be conflating cost and convenience with value.
