And quite rightly. Jeans are a perversion. Even Elvis eschewed jeans. He'd wear pink jackets, but never jeans.

Isn't all happiness temporary, though, Olav?

Oh my God! Is she wearing sports shoes!?? How dare she? This is like a slap in the face of every student in Thailand.

I never get thumbs down. Probably because I'm so popular.

Let's say you meet a girl. She's Russian. To stay in your country (assuming you live in Norge) you need to get her an EU visa. You apply and you get the visa. You're ecstatic, she can stay. No discipline, but happy happy.

Of course. Happiness is just the overcoming of a serious obstacle. You can overcome obstacles without discipline.

On the young it looks young. On 50 year old women it looks mutton dressed as lamb, just stupid. And students will be peeved, they have to wear uniforms but the mininster wears ripped jeans? So out of order. I'm quite upset by this. I need to go for a walk.

She's over 50 years old. Sorry, at 50 plus wearing ripped jeans is just mutton dressed as lamb. Good to see the Thai instinct spot on here, she should be tarred and feathered. Ripped jeans at 50 plus. Tssk.

She's 50 years old, what's she doing wearing ripped jeans? Disgusting.

Discipline helps you to achieve goals, yes. So let's say your goal is to get jacked. You're disciplined in the gym and you do get jacked. So you achieve that goal. That may give you fulfilment and joy, if being jacked is important to you. Sure. Your life may become more positive because you're jacked, chicks may look at you more, sure. But those are fleeting accomplishments, they won't make you happy long term. I mean do you think Arnold, after winning 8 Mr Olympias sat back and said "That's it, I'm perfectly happy now". He was jacked, he got his titles, women were lusting after him. After a while though that fades and loses importance, he started doing other things, movies, politics...he wasn't happy long term because he achieved one goal.

She should have left it at that. A guy looks at her too long, ok, she's not comfortable. Here's a novel idea, just ignore it. But no, she had to call police, the station manager, incite other passengers to intervene, she made an elephant out of a mole hill. This snowflake culture will just cause more problems. It won't solve a thing. Guys will still look at girls. Laws will lose all respect, police will lose all respect, welll, even more so.

No, she called police after the guy looked at her too long. The legs extension thing came after she called police.

Not saying it's "acceptable", just trying to put things into a proper context. He wasn't sealing the door with his body and keeping anyone hostage. And the reason people intervened and the station manager and police came was obviously because the woman made a massive incident out of a guy looking at her for too long. If you think that is a good society and healthy rules for men and women, then perhaps you need to get out of Isaan a bit.

Yeah, tried that one, it's terrible. Now a convert to this one from France, best in Thailand:

Sure, but she called police on him first. That can have the effect of causing some resentment in young guys. And it's not like he really obstructred her, he was sitting down and extended his legs, she could leave, she just had to clamber over him. He was obviously angry because she called police very demonstratively on him.

I don't think so, he extended his legs, ok obstruction, but he was not convicted because of that. It was the staring which prompted the woman to call police. Because they now know that they can get a man arrested whom they don't want looking at her.

Yes, and the other 81,000 are about what pain medications actually work.

You don't pay bills using internet on the phone?

Now, they made a law in the UK that a woman can have you locked up for looking at her, I just feel sorry for young guys. Feminism has utterly taken control in the UK. Whistling? Cat-calling, 2 years jail. Looking at a woman? Harrassment - 2 years jail. What a world to live in for the young guys. The feminists have shown no mercy and went for the jugular. Total domination.

I'm with Thai police on this one, lock the door and throw away the key. This is no way for a grown man to behave. Sets a bad example to the quality Thai youth.

I was looking more at the girl. Yah, tattoos are disgusting, but it's a guy, don't care.

Possibly he moved in a lewd manner. Writhing like a Japanese Octopus.

Because I know it's bullox. When I do my morning exercises it's disciplined, but that's the exact opposite of "happiness". It's a chore. To mistake discipline for happiness is idiotic. At most you feel your conscientiousness is pacified because you did what you had to do. But that's not happiness.

Bullox.

For instance, I'm blissfully happy that Will is stuck in boring Isaan in a dead end relationship without romance, spark or joy. See? Anything can cause you to be blissfullyl happy.
