  1. Marketing messaging brought to you by the big dope lobby. Here's what real medical professionals say: https://www.cdc.gov/marijuana/health-effects/index.html Smoke it, if you wish, but be aware of the various risks and don't pretend that it's harmless, because it isn't despite all the marketing by the Big Dope industry.
  2. It's amazing how powerful the big dope lobby is. Who would have thought that Thailand would have legalised it? Fact is that dope causes mental illness in some of its users.
  3. Stand on a chair and make a hissing sound, watching for movement in the undergrowth. Its reaction may vary, depending on how it interprets your dialect. If there's no response, it's moved on.
  4. Phanaeng rocks, but the one in the photo has runny sauce, and looks more like gaeng. Thick sauce is a must.
  5. Pretty (oops, sexism!) much any word in the English language is fair game for the woke radicals. They move the goalposts all the time to disorientate us.
  6. While still appearing to be aligned with the US, Thailand will likely move closer to the emerging Chinese superpower and its satellites, including Russia, as this interesting academic study shows. A_World_Divided.pdf
  7. Starbucks has all but withdrawn from Australia, except for a couple of outlets in the tourist areas. The local coffee is great, and cafés in Oz also sell decent food, unlike the vile offerings at Starbucks.
  8. Agreed. And I'm originally British.
  9. There are other payment systems like China's UnionPay that work in both Thailand and Russia.
  10. At least they've stopped Thailand becoming like the West, so don't be too hard on them.
  11. Pheu Thai gets elected. Yellow shirts on the streets calling foul. Coup. Welcome back Prayuth. Rinse and repeat.
  12. I think that's a thing of the past. The press these days reports news as if all the articles were written by the same person.
  13. Maybe it's you? I've worked with lots of Russians - they're decent people in the main, they work hard and are generally intelligent. Sure, they might not be as emotional and gushing as some westerners, but that's not a bad thing.
  14. He did. He asked members of this internet forum for their first hand opinions. That's what forums are for.
  15. Exactly, nobody on the outside knows what's going on inside a marriage. She could be a saint, or a dragon. He might be a charlatan, or a man at his wits end who has tried his hardest to make the marriage work and doesn't know how to end it without losing everything.
  16. Right. The rain puts the fires out.
  17. It depends whom you know and how much you pay.
  18. "Voluntary service" sounds like joining the army.
  19. It's a term of endearment, which is perfectly acceptable in certain informal situations. Thankfully, most Thais don't suffer from the woke mind virus, so wouldn't understand that whole microaggression oppressor/ oppressed Marxist ideological poison that's so common in the west.
  20. What if you get an involuntary hard on? Very embarrassing.
  21. Oh dearie me. Just pop a few cold ones in your fridge and watch a film or two.
