Don't care about fame. Shallow.

Not sure what opened your eyes about Hong Kong. Try Japan. Fantastic for outdoors. Clean. Everything works. Nothing dodgy. Just avoid the big, hyper populated cities. May is one of the best months to go. The weather is pretty much perfect for most of the month of May. The world is your oyster.

I don't rate Hong Kong at all. I've been there at least half a dozen times. Probably closer to a dozen times. Thankfully, I haven't had to go back there again recently. Local food is pretty awful. Forget about the women. Most of the people I know who used to live there have left because of China retaking control. I have a good friend living there who is about to get out for the same reason. I'm sure you can find a better place. Hong Kong would probably be last on my list.

Has anyone watched this new documentary film about Led Zeppelin yet? I just saw it. A great piece of music history. I don't want to ruin it with a lot of spoilers, but really worth seeing. I also don't watch much in the way of films or TV series these days, but this was memorable.

Well, I think we can probably kick in a few extra quid for a plate of fish and chips and a kettle of tea for him, at least, no?

Ok, so what's your plan? Antidepressants aren't helping? How long have you been on them? What's your next move? Gotta have a plan, man.

I reckon nothing that a couple of hours with a ladyboy can't fix, right?

How much is your rent?

No such thing exists.

It's a windup. Do you know what that means? If somebody really had issues and they needed help, they wouldn't be here trolling on an anonymous forum. Think about it. Do the math. Common sense.

How much would you contribute to the GoFundMe account to get rid of him? Or better yet, how much do you think it will take?

When you've got money, you always have options. If Thailand really is your problem, then you can just leave. Or is Thailand not really your problem?

Gotta hand it to Bob, this is a top-tier windup, full marks, maybe one of the best I have seen on this site. Hooks people right in with the empathy angle. Full credit where it is due, I did not think BS had it in him to pull off something this well-crafted. The whole “I am on meds and had to up my dose” bit is a clever touch, really sells the narrative and also helps explain why all of Bob’s windup posts always have such a bitter, scathing edge. That said, while I do believe Bob is often miserable in real life, it is a shame he could not use his creativity for a windup with a more positive spin for once. But let’s be honest, people love watching others struggle. It is a way of coping with their own unresolved misery, finding solace in the notion that someone else has it even worse. That is why disaster stories and tales of suffering always draw the most engagement. Bob knows this and he is playing it masterfully, luring people into sharing their own negativity so he can feed off the collective misery. A topic like this will always reel in more fish than something with a happier slant, that's why I feel it is so well played.

I’ve been eating 60 to 90 grams of 72% percent chocolate per day on average for over 10 years. Love the stuff. Not sure it’s had any real effect on me physically, other than adding a little to my midsection. It’s incredibly calorically dense. But what really stings now is the cost. Prices just keep climbing because of the declining cocoa supply from West Africa. If you look into it, you’ll see that cocoa production has been struggling due to shifting weather patterns and climate change, things like too much rain, not enough rain, unpredictable conditions. Both Ivory Coast's and Ghana’s output have been hit hard. The European brand I normally buy just jumped up another 25 percent in price about a month ago. No idea where it’ll end, but over the last seven years, the price of the same chocolate I’ve been eating has more than doubled in total.

The metal has never made me noticeably heavier or my muscles harder. Maybe I'm not eating enough?

Multiple guess. All about as interesting as a GG post. Just clickbait.

Maybe. Perhaps it was 35k for the scoping plus 1,500 per biopsy on each of the 5 snips.

Yeah, it looks like a grift. I just quickly punched in any answers without looking at the questions to see if it would get me to the end. And it did. I still got 4 out of 10 correct without reading anything. And then it ends up being an ad for an online wine shop with an address in Chiang Mai. Buying wine online you have no idea of how the wine has been stored and if it's been damaged by the excessive heat in Thailand. A word to the wise.

50k is a bit steep for a happy polyp ending mate. But as long as you are happy, then that's what counts.

This is a thrilling topic, isn't it? You must be easily entertained by windups like this one.

I've only got one burning question: Is she different from all the others and special?

Super Pussy? Any reason this isn’t in The Lounge?

Yeah, I saw that news a couple of days ago and watched a few different interviews with the guy. It all sounds possible. Would result in civil unrest if it does happen in my opinion.

At one time he preferred to go by the name Susan. But that was after he divorced from Dolf.

Most people sitting on a big pile of cash right now, waiting to time a major crash, likely already missed out on the last three years of gains when the S&P tripled from its 2020 low. Either that, or they were among the rare few who sold everything at the top when Trump took office in January and they are now sitting on those profits and flush with cash. But let’s be honest, very few were smart enough to sell at the top, although it was an obvious time to exit the market. So my bet is, for those sitting in enough cash right now to make good use of a crash now, it was the former.
