save the frogs

i think some people who sell on etsy get the buyer to pay for shipping costs. not sure.

why is he a kook there? because he's not wearing a blue suit and a tie?

the guy who invented the internet was probably a kook.

who reads these things or even cares about or remembers the bar owners?

the inverse is also true. in countries where health care is free (ie paid by taxes), most people make no effort in maintaining a decent diet / exercise regime. the free healthcare provides a sense of security. so it's a valid philosophy.

my brain is giving me a clue that this thread is boring

you are a pilot? you shouldnt be on these types of threads. we wouldn't want you to have a sudden panic attack and crash a plane. ha ha.

most people just don't respond to me when they don't want to hear what i have to say ...

I looked one of them up on skyscanner. Qatar Airways QR51011 Rio de Janeiro to Sao Paulo QR780 Sao Paulo to Doha then Doha to Dubai ... Dubai to Colombo ... flight numbers are all there. Not the most "optimal" flight path.

some things are best not discussed

this video shows 25 flight routes around the world that only make sense on a flat earth map. auckland, new zealand to mexico city stops in los angeles. this makes no sense on a globe earth model.

that's shocking. why would someone utter a death threat? for your stance on vaccines?

Also, he is predicting biological immortality by as early as 2030 ... ie he claims if you are in reasonable health by 2030, the medical tech breakthroughs will keep you alive. of course it could be hype or bs or over-optimism ...

Check out David Shapiro on Youtube.

what do you mean by level?

youtube has only 2 options ... "thumbs up" or "thumbs down". that system makes more sense to me.

well, we're mostly westerners on here. why don't you just avoid us by not posting? and don't read our comments either.

I think they've been making that claim for a while. Not sure how easy is it is to implement given online handles do not require real names. Amazon has "verified users" .... but not all users are verified ... but it helps if you're not sure if you should trust the review.

In many ways, online communication is much more authentic than real-life communication. In real life, if you're sitting with someone in a cafe you may not want to tell the person you think their opinion is stupid because you don't want to offend them. Since we're all anonymous avatars on here, we are more inclined to say what we really think. Real-life communication has way too much political correctness compared to online.

I'm guessing there are a lot of fake bad reviews. Possibly from competitors.

What I'm getting from this thread ... Having no insurance or bad insurance will bankrupt you. And paying for proper insurance eliminates the lower cost of living in Thailand.

are you sure it's a good idea to be making a major decision involving a couple million baht given that you're on the cusp of a nervous breakdown and you have a drinking problem?

haha. never heard that word. i'm sure it's used in the harry potter books.

interesting short sci-fi film
