  1. Thais don't even like Big Macs! If the price of Som Tom increases to 1000 baht, there'd be a revolution. But Big Macs?
  2. Eastern Europeans, including Ukrainians and Russians, should not be allowed to travel. They should be behind some iron curtain queuing for bread. There, I said it.
  3. We are going to see a future filled with Chinese nobel prize winners, with a run that will make the run of jewish nobel prize winners look second best. In academia the Chinese will triumph, because 1) their IQ is above that of any others and 2) their work ethic is unique. This will naturally translate into excellence in technology. Culturally also the Chinese take a long term approach, politically too, whereas the democracies of the West are myopic short term bunglers in the worst case (Europe) or dependent on once in a generation genius (the US).
  4. Thais don't even know where America is. Less still what the economic policies are. I doubt they even noticed what is happening.
  5. This statement betrays massive ignorance of how the world actually works. The reality is that US law firms and US investment banks have expertise which other investment banks and law firms simply do not have. If a major bank wants to do a securitization they want the BEST lawyer and the best team doing it. They know who is the best lawyer, who has the best team and the best expertise. They are NOT going to say oh well, we want to do a 900 million securitization but we won't engage Chris McBride from Mayer Brown because we don't like the politics of the US White House. I mean that's just massively ignorant thinking. This is why the US do not need to worry. They have expertise others do not have. In addition they have a massively attractive market. No matter what politics is happening companies will want to be in that market making money from Americans. There are Chinese firms in America now, sitting it out, while they hate Trump, they know they still need to be in the US market. It's ludicrous to think or hope otherwise.
  6. Only a brain-amputated mentally retarded blind man who has never looked at the resources of Russia, history or its arms arsenal could possibly have believed that Ukraine's invasion of Russia was a good idea. The gambit has failed. Ukraine is being defeated on all fronts. Zelensky imploring defence, no more serious Ukrainian advances.
  7. He was a terrible Batman. Truly abominable. Kilmer's reputation for being difficult on set had reportedly exploded into open warfare with the director, Joel Schumacher, normally the most temperate of men, who called his leading man's behaviour "difficult and childish". John Frankenheimer, who directed Kilmer in The Island of Dr Moreau, was even blunter. "I don't like Val Kilmer," he said. "I don't like his work ethic and I don't want to be associated with him ever again." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4n7xy3ew8mo
  8. Definitely not the girls. I've never been asked for money for free.
  9. This is better than ZZ Top:
  10. Nazi Germany expressly abolished press freedom. Did Trump do that as well? After 1933 German newspapers were made into public service entities, and thus overseen by state officials. Did Trump do this? Eventually only those with an Aryan pass could become journalists. Did Trump do this? In Nazi Germany the newspapers of opposition parties were appropriated by the Nazis. Did Trump do this? Sorry, but your analogy is massively and utterly falling short of reality.
  11. I don't know. It's complicated. You wish you had none, but you're happy you have them and wouldn't not to want to have them. I think people who don't have kids miss out.
  12. Thais love to party. When they do they like to go all out, costs be damned.
  13. Very nicely done. These Swensen places cost a fortune. I had the same with my daugthers birthday, but luckily no mothers, only very sensible kids, and they, out of themselves ordered very modestly. Apart from one little emperor.
  14. Very attractive woman, but the two sons and tattoos are massive red flags. Beware Richard.
  15. You seem too focused on this idea of education. Any number of uneducated people are more intelligent than highly educated people. Education is just clothes you wear.
