“ I know I borrowed $100,000 to get a degree in the Mating Habits of the Incas but can I get my student loan debt forgiven Also, my 4 hour shift at Starbucks is just too much for me?”.
As a former Sociology major, I resemble that remark.

It's all Gen Z on the floor of my condo. My condo in Thailand, where you desperately want to be.
They're such failures they've beaten your goal by decades -tho a full half century is prob not out of the question.

I'm super-supportive of your Pattaya lifestyle long range plan (apparently very, very long range).
But I'd give away my own pile in a heartbeat to be 25 again.
Wish the young well. Don't be like the mean college dean in Animal House.

You'd rather be an old guy dodging night shifts at the hospital? I must beg to differ.
To be young, to have only known the internet life, would be great.

Your odds of having a conversation with an educated white woman are in the ballpark of mine of meeting Elvis.

They're young and can get laid for free.
So success-wise, they've already run over you like a tank.

In the Theravada tradition, there is a kind of empathy called Sympathetic Joy; the enjoyment of enjoying people enjoying things.
It's very strong here. When you're digging into that mango and sticky rice, they're really with you on it.
In Thailand, you experience a lot of empathy that is very light-feeling, instead of just the heavy burden of sympathy-type empathy.

Vientiane wants to do it too. And they're much broker and more in the Chinese pocket.
Went up to Boten, the northern border town there which was a ghost town except for the casino. It was def doing some biz.

I think those slatternly Pattaya harlots are finding better prospects on their phone then what's sitting in front of them at the bar.
I have to believe that those glorious days when a hot-looking woman would play a game of Jenga with me in a bar, just on speculation, are gone and never to return.
Who, who can I blame for this?

Most countries are def more educated than America is. To quote Chris Rock, "They be thinking a book is like kryptonite".
The whole IQ-mania thing here is something I snark at, but do not participate in. Obv. success is not even remotely about being smart. I'm prob more conventionally successful than most people here. Who's voting for me to have genius status?
For the rest of the world, it's the Trainspotting conundrum: "Plonkers sure, but what about being conquered by plonkers?"

There's so much less incentive for them to try. What do you get for being the best counter person at 7/11?
Also: At their age, I was a hippie, hoping to make a living as a Zen poet.
So I'll leave the stern judgement to imperious hospital building services professionals.

You know the greatest thing about Americans that talk like this is that they are so superior you can make a fortune drinking them under the table at bars.
We're talking about the mildest kidding being met with this scribe of huffiness.
Then the deranged he-man alcoholism boast.
Nope, can't get anymore Canadian than that.

I was someone else with a Laos-oriented name for about 20 months.
I like commenting on forums. I do Slate a bit too. Prob the best one left standing.
Hard to find one that's not like Yahoo News where it's just random idiots screaming into a useless internet maw.

100+ mill today.
Those show biz windfalls are gone for good. You'd be lucky to see a mil out of a Netflix series.
What Netflix dross will have the legs of a Friends or a Seinfeld? Will people want to watch Is It Cake? even a year from now?
Is It Cake? def gets some viewership in pot bars.

I just read that he had a fling with Gwyneth Paltrow -"at a party".
Does that mean that he grappled her in the coat room?
If so, respect.

I prefer no rankings.
Idiots, when being laughed at, would often point to their ranking as some kind of goofy validation.
Please take this pathetic crutch away from them to let laughing at them proceed unimpeded.

I was broadly making fun of the popular trope that Canada is "too white" and that that makes it culturally inferior.
And then I half-heartedly dissed the midwest, which is the birthright privilege of every New Yorker.

Jian Tong in the Nimman1 Mall had a nice duck at a decent price, but it did not have the super-crispy skin that I expect with the dish.
Hong Kong Lucy Restaurant on the top floor of the Maya Mall gets closer and has the other specialty Chinese hanging meats at a good price. Not particularly cozy, tho.
Haven't been yet, but Yangzi Jiang in Nimman is a pretty place that my Taiwanese neighbors like.
If I have Peking Duck, it's so rich that I don't want it again for a very long time.
I had a $150 Peking duck in NYC where the duck was crisped table-side with a flame gun. Best ever.

Two years ago Chiang Mai Ram had a Endoscopy and Colonoscopy special. Total price was 39,000. Might be worth the time to ask private hospitals what they would charge.
In fact, it was 39K. Sorry!
I was in an out in about an hour, including the consult. No discomfort at all. When I got home, I slept like a rock for a couple of hours.
The cleanup process was much less onerous than my last attempt a dozen years ago. But yeah, make sure you laptop is charged for the toilet time.

I just paid 32K at Chiang Mai Ram Hospital. If you don't want to be totally knocked out, you can save a little money.

To ask people what they think about Canada.
The only person in the entire world who gets butt hurt about that is snowflake-you.

This is backwards thinking.
Moving to Thailand is like joining The French Foreign Legion

For cheap and old, try Chiang Puark flea market. I bought Kantom trays there for 100 baht apiece.
They call Generation Z lazy ??
