AQI of 210 this morning here in Bangkok, always nice to wake up to polluted air, it goes well with the polluted land, polluted water, and the chemically contaminated produce.

Dupe... delete

Yeah, the wife and 9 yr old daughter dictate my life 🤪

If you don't want the Spicoli types showing up at your establishment, get yourself a "No shirts, no shoes, no service" sign 😜

Exactly, let Natural Selection work its magic.

200 unelected Junta hand-picked Senators elected the Prime Minister.

My wife just finished our Thai tax, my TIN is used alongside hers, but we obviously put "0" for any income from me, as I haven't remitted any money since 2023. Hopefully that will stay true until the end this year as well, by then I'll have enough anecdotal evidence from the many guinea pigs on here.

I reluctantly left the USA 9 years ago, and went back last year, I miss everything back there, and still hate Thailand with a passion.

Well by all means school us professor.

You seem to forget the backdoor deal with the bought and paid for UNELECTED Junta installed Senators, otherwise Pita would be in charge right now.

They smile even before wanting to kill someone, if a Thai smiles, be very worried, watch your back!

It is a known fact, 99.9% of the population knows this to be the case, you would have to be a complete idiot to believe otherwise.

I believe it's completely illegal here, I wish it weren't, but self-defense is frowned upon here.

The Titanic is heading for an iceberg, full steam ahead! 😜

Sliding the palm of the hand up the wall slowly, while bringing the chest towards the wall, to full stretch has worked. Also, pulling the shoulder on a door using my hand, with my back to the door, with the hand as low as possible while rolling the shoulder backwards has probably been the most beneficial so far. One other good choice has been to avoid sleeping sideways on either shoulder, try sleeping flat with back on the bed. But moving my elbows ever so slightly forward while pressing weights, keeping the weights/elbows/wrists at about a 10 degree angle, were the real trick today doing shoulders.

We're not talking about a lot of weight here, I have things pretty low as it is (because of the impingement). Only using 30lbs dumbbells for shoulders and 60lb dumbbells for benching. My right should is laughing at my left shoulder.....LOL

If they want real results, they need to enforce driving laws for 365 days a year, not just these intermittent dog and pony shows for the press.

Been trying a few new things, spreading out more days (2 rest days, instead of one) between chest and shoulders, that is definitely helping. I also took some pointers on the internet to avoid certain 90 degree angles, especially with should pressing with the dumbbells, putting my elbows a little more forward seems to be a lot better, also bringing my elbows in more to my body when benching, but its a balancing act between finding the right positions and still feeling comfortable. As long as I don't tear anything I'll keep the workouts going, but the left shoulder (this is the one that is holding me back) was hurting more after Mondays benching, better today when doing shoulders after a few days of impingement exercises/stretches.

This is where Bear Spray would work well, even allows you to keep your distance.

All you have to ask yourself, is how will Thaksin profit from this, then you'll know why he proposes it.

That describes half the drivers here in the LOS.

The usual Thai approach to save face, rather than accept they are wrong for what they have done, what they feel the need to do is prove that everyone else is wrong. It's just a misunderstanding on the part of the rest of the civilized world.

Also, be careful about having your hands in front of the airbag when it goes off.

Hey, if I could convince my wife to leave Thailand, I would get on the first plane out and never return, I would also call in an airstrike to level Southeast Asia to the ground too, but that's another story.

Common-sense is lost on some, along with self-preservation, but there is a solution, natural selection eventually weeds out the riff-raff.
