  1. On the IRA issue it seems to me Thailand Revenue wouldn't care if the withdrawal was from traditional or Roth. With traditional that is taxable in the US so you might have a credit to use with that against Thai tax. With Roth it's not income in the US but if you remit it to Thailand, depending on the enforcement of this mess, you may have EXPLAINING to try to avoid Thai tax just the same as traditional!
  2. Yeah I would say they are stupid. Discrimination yes. Apartheid no. Even Noam Chomsky rejects calling Israel an apartheid state within it's borders.
  3. If they're assuming poorer and darker is always morally superior to richer and lighter, then they are stupid. If they think Israeli Jews are overwhelmingly "white" then they are stupid. If they think Zionism is only about far right extremist Zionist settlers on the west bank, then they are stupid. If they think Israel is an apartheid state within it's borders, then they are stupid. If they see the conflict in terms of colonialism, then they are stupid. If they label things genocide that aren't genocide just to inflame, then they are stupid. If they refuse to understand that the Jewish people are indiginous to Israel and insist that only Arabs are (who historically came MUCH LATER) then they are stupid. If they see a direct parallel between discrimination against black people in the US and the Arab Jewish conflict, then they are stupid. If they chant River to the Sea, they are stupid if they don't know what it means or evil if they do. Again I wouldn't have wanted anyone to die on either side due to this current flare up of the conflict. But to suggest that Hamas actions on October 7 aren't responsible for what's happened is stupid. If you're saying the specifics of Israel's response to October 7 are debatable, then I would agree with that.
  4. Have you heard that rimming is all the rage these days among the younger set gay and straight? Lots of different things are disgusting to some people. I'm disgusted by Thai mayonnaise. https://www.salon.com/2015/02/02/ass_is_the_new_pssy_why_anilingus_is_on_the_rise_partner/
  5. Only scat fetishists who are rare are looking for poop during anal sex or play, gay or straight. Obviously accidents can happen but that's very different from being turned on by that.
  6. So you're disgusted. I think the way you think is disgusting.
  7. Normal as in a natural expression of sexuality. Not as in the majority. By your logic is it not normal to have hazel eyes, be left handed, being an American with an uncut dick, or being a citizen of Belize?
  8. It is normal.
  9. I don’t take your post seriously. You are just playing games.
  10. Yes I would like the wallet but as I said Lazada refuses to fix the issue that makes my wallet a one-way street only. Again this is a specific issue with my account.
  11. For the most part they're just stupid especially the Jew hating River to the sea genocide chanting "elite" college students.
  12. The Jewish people are indigenous to Israel. Your Irish comparison though popular is without merit. People seem to incorrectly and bizarrely project what they know in their own culture upon the conflict. Human nature but terribly flawed. The conflict is very unique. As far as apartheid Israel is in no way an apartheid state within their borders. The situation in the West Bank of course is much different and quite horrible.
  13. My main problem with prepaying has been the merchant cancelling my order because they have no stock. No problem if you have a functioning wallet. I don't. So with COD if I check and see in advance low stock, I don't get stuck with a cancellation paid into my wallet (which I can't use). So COD prevents that kind of cancellation. BTW, I used to stick with COD on orders coming from China but over the years I haven't had one cancellation on a China order.
  14. Don't make assumptions silly. It's not because I'm a foreigner. It's because of something SPECIFIC that happened with the history of my account that they refuse to fix. It's totally insane that they refuse to fix it but I'm stuck with this situation permanently. I won't go into details but again NOTHING to do with being a foreigner. Cheers.
  15. There isn't going to be a two state solution by magic. Currently, NEITHER side wants that, and this current war has made things considerably worse (and it's not over).
  16. Based on your corrected dates, there is no great urgency to get a new passport. You can get a new annual extension but you will just lose about a month. That is allowed and not unusual. HOWEVER, if you want to travel keep in mind that in general you need six months passport validity to do so.
  17. Currently I very rarely use COD and pay by bank transfer instead. But I will use Lazada COD if: There is something dodgy sounding about the seller such as low service ratings. If the stock on the item is very low, like last one or two in stock. Expensive items like electronics but sometimes they disable COD
  18. I can't use my Lazada wallet either. I have found that when that happens you can contact them and ask them to turn that amount into a voucher. It's more of a hassle than it sounds but worth it if it's a lot of money. I currently have about 150 baht locked that way and it's not worth bothering. Also be careful. When you get the voucher use it all one on ONE purchase! For example if it's 1000 baht don't use it on a 400 purchase because if you do that you lose 600.
  19. Huh? Why would Hamas whose ideology is KILL ALL JEWS surrender to an Israel that was so weakened as you describe? Bizarre post above.
  20. Kids like hearing stories out loud if it's done in an entertaining way. Did you forget?
  21. Wild exaggeration.
  22. Thanks but still clear as mud. Let's say I sell 10k of a mutual fund and remit to Thailand next year. I have no idea what portion of that if any was increased after Jan 1. If not fully sold the basis is probably all older but how are such complexities communicated to Thai revenue.
  23. Do you think any country could have tackled a terrorist enemy like Hamas with hundreds of miles of tunnels and a policy of using civilian shields without massive civilian casualties? Hamas knew exactly what they were bringing on their own civilians on October 7. They care less about their own civilians than Israel does.
  24. Because it's what Hamas has. The PR war which they're awfully good at.
  25. Well that's clear as mud. Funds from a decades old IRA were obviously earned long ago.
