Thanks. I thought 600 sounded too cheap.

Is it really only 600 baht? I went to Pattaya Memorial Hospital 2 days ago for an eye infection and the doctor fee (not a specialist) was 800 baht plus 350 baht in other charges.

Renowned Thai school shifts to partial online teaching, 500+ fail test
HalAndLois replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
This is very difficult to evaluate if we don't have the statistics of students who did not use the new method. We cannot compare without these figures so we cannot judge whether the new method is successful or not. -

This is possibly the dumbest rationale you could imagine. Yeah, this will solve the problem. -
Thai girl in critical condition after 1,000 baht drinking challenge
HalAndLois replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
Can no one on this forum read? It's the grandmother who claims that she is supporting 13 people. -
I asked a similar question to a travesti in Costa Rica a few years back. (Travesti literally means "cross-dresser which is what they went by then. Not sure today.) Anyway, the travesti said that the customers were not gay men but otherwise straight men and used the word bisexual.

Do Thai men get jealous we take all the hot women?
HalAndLois replied to MalcolmB's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Obviously, everything you say is true. Thai men hate us. -
I like how you completely abandon your argument when the first thing you said was shown to be wrong. So your completely new argument is that people, no matter how rich, should be unhappy if there exist richer people. This "wealth divide" canard is a leftist technique to sow discord and envy. For someone with happy in their name, you sound pretty miserable.

The world is very close to the wealthiest it's ever been in the entire history of humanity.

Ban tourism and secure Koh Larn's future as pristine jungle island because all of the people dependent on it will have starved to death. -
Pattaya Seeks to Transform Image, Promoting Diverse Tourism
HalAndLois replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Whenever I say words like "diverse" and "green", I just substitute the words *sucky*, *nonexistent*, *imaginary*, and *leftist*, and then it reads much more accurately. -
Apology from Pattaya Pub Guards after Assault on Tourists
HalAndLois replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Pot, meet kettle. Kettle, meet pot. I'm not sure I've ever before seen someone demonstrate their lack of self-awareness so quickly. -
Engineer's Heartwarming Dowry: 120 Baht of Gold to Match Bride’s Weight
HalAndLois replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
"I try to sound smart by making up imaginary statements from nonexistent people and utterly destroying the imaginary statements that I just made up." Come on, man. We all win the arguments that we make up in our heads. Why don't you try arguing with a real person. In the words of boxing, "You should see how he hits the heavy bag." "Yeah, but the heavy bag doesn't hit back." -
Classless comment.

Must Read British men's assault complaint awaited by Pattaya police
HalAndLois replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I find this hard to believe. In western countries, criminal complaints are filed as The People of the State of ___ vs. Foreign British Guy or whatever. The plaintiff is the state, masquerading as "the People of the State." If in fact this is the law in Thailand, woe unto wealthy single people without relatives, because you could kill them and steal all of their stuff because there would be no one to make a complaint. -
Is this a parody of leftism gone mad? Or are you really trying to malign a group that has helped millions of people quit drinking and live a happier and more productive life? AA tries to build up, and you try to destroy.

The people commenting on this thread are so naive and ignorant. Palestinians have refused statehood no less than five times. Israel offered them all of the area they occupied plus a small amount of Israeli land andwere refused. Why? Because the leaders of the murderous terrorist organizations (PLO, Hamas, Hesbollah) do not want statehood or peace. They want to kill Jews and they want to remain in power, receiving billions of dollars a year in support from naive and ignorant foreigners. There are dreams that cannot be, there are storms we cannot weather, and there are problems without a solution. This is one of them.

I was reading a biography of Pol Pot (I know, a little light reading) and it said that the Cambodian word for "education" was related to the word for memorization, left over from long ago when religious education required the memorization of lots of stuff. Is Thai similar? That would explain a lot because the very word education would suggest memorization rather than comprehension.

16 Women Have Accused David Copperfield Of Sexual Misconduct

He should make them disappear like the Statue of Liberty. -
That Learn Thai with Mod page is great at explaining her expensive prices and how to pay her. It says absolutely nothing about how she will teach us Thai or why we should pay her. Just a money grab.
