  1. No, they are classic liberals in the FDR mode. I was speaking only of the SCOTUS, but Catholics can usually be relied upon to oppose abortion.
  2. Several good bakeries here in Pattaya. Buns must be used quickly since they lack preservatives and will mold soon.
  3. The most accurate post on this subject that I have seen. Majority Catholic and majority radical right wing.
  4. Absolutely disgusting. I haven't eaten Kraft singles in many years. A "FrankenFood",
  5. If that’s not a definitive example of bureaucracy in Thailand, I don’t know what is. The renter is responsible even when the landlord refuses to hand over the required paperwork. Farang is ALWAYS wrong under Thai law.
  6. I was wondering the same thing. Is this “Processed cheese” or actual cheese??
  7. Sounds plausible except that this part of history was trumpeted all over Thailand during the Vietnam War, when Thailand was very paranoid about Communist incursion from Vietnam and Laos. There may be widespread ignorance of that history today, but at one time, The Thai government was making it VERY clear what the country could expect under Communism.
  8. Animals are FOOD, unless you are vegetarian or vegan. It makes no difference whether you agree with animal consumption or not. It is a fact of life all over the world and it is not going to end because of your extreme beliefs. Wanting to hack off the genitals of meat-eaters is an extreme position that should not be allowed on this forum.
  9. When there are hungry and “food-insecure” people all over the country, it is downright sinful to waste food. Only my opinion, but that is the way my depression-era parents taught me.
  10. If she is reported to Immigration, it will become HER problem very quickly. A call or a visit from the police, usually gets Thais very active, very quickly. They know what the law is, they just don’t want to comply because they think it’s “your problem”.
  11. I would have been far better off if I had turned into my Dad. He was a good guy, though he drank too much and made bad decisions. I did stupid things like getting a Master’s Degree and dabbling in academia before cashing out at age 65 and heading for Thailand. ???? ???? ????. Been here for eight years and couldn’t possibly go back to the USA.. ????
  12. Communism has never made any headway in Thailand because most all Thais are familiar with what happened to Czar Nicholas and his family once the Bolsheviks took over.
  13. If he had just ommited the party’s stance on reforming Article 112, his problems would be over.
  14. This cannot be real. Please tell me it's satire.
  15. Wasting food in a developing country is an abomination. Shame on these people.
  16. It appears that the major parties are thumbing their noses at voters. Anutin may end up as PM. Pita’s goal of revising the Royal Defamation law has seemingly destroyed his chances. Election results seem to mean nothing to most party functionaries.
  17. The location and city planning can affect how far a city block is from each other. On the other hand, a common measurement is that a city block is about 660 feet, or 1/8 of a mile, long. Therefore, walking one mile requires eight blocks.
  18. At Chonburi Immigration my last filing took about four hours before I was notified that It was accepted and given another date to report. The latest system seems to be working well. I still prefer to go to Immigration in person, since I live only two blocks away. Still, it’s nice to know I can file online if I need to.
  19. I will continue to get vaccinated at regular intervals and wear my mask when I go out in public. This seems to have worked well for me thus far.
  20. How can public figures be this stupid? BBC presenters make far too much money to risk it over sex charges. Pure stupidity.
  21. I am 73 and my opinion is that life is not worth living much past 75. I’m too cowardly to kill myself but I wish I could rely on going in my sleep. At least I’m living with a nice Thai woman as I face death. ????
  22. The need for exact change with Grab is the only drawback. The ATM still spits out 1000 baht bills.
  23. Cannabis is not addictive. Why would you need such a drug?
