Digital cards are great, and so are cards that are valid for a one-time purchase and then automatically canceled. But even those aren’t really necessary anymore. Most credit cards today can be temporarily disabled through your mobile banking app. I keep all my cards disabled by default and only enable them briefly when I’m about to make a purchase. As soon as the transaction is complete, I lock the card again. This prevents any unauthorized or unexpected charges. It takes a little effort, but not much.

Weak conjecture.

You're welcome. 👍🏼

That's nice too. Care even less if you don't care.

The lifestyle of Bangkokians has always been like that. Thirty years ago, there were barely any gyms, and people weren’t obese back then either. Now there are hundreds of gyms, so in fact, people are probably moving a lot more now after work than before. The real issue is the change in diet and increased access to calorie-dense food. Nearly everything they eat and drink now is loaded with sugar too. Obesity is based 80% on diet and only about 20% on lack of physical activity.

Trump does. That's why he was there.

But after Trump.

Government workers are possibly the largest group, perhaps led by the staff at the Ministry of Health. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/3028886/bangkokians-are-fattest-thais More than 56% of people living in Bangkok suffer from abdominal obesity, putting them at greater risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) than those living in other provinces, said Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin. The minister unveiled the figures on Sunday during the launch of an NCD event in Bangkok to discuss why the capital’s residents are stricken with higher rates of diabetes, hypertension and cardiac disease, compared to people in other parts of the country. A recent study showed 56.1% of people in Bangkok had abdominal obesity, compared to 39.4% nationwide. Some 12.5% of people in the capital were diagnosed with diabetes, while only 9.5% of people nationwide have diabetes.

HERO! 👍🏼

Weirdo stalker.

I would say the same for you, but it would be an insult to the word sad and you aren't even a dude, Susan.

Demented troll trapped in your mum's basement.

You can of course leave at anytime. Oh, wait, you can't because you're obsessed. That's why you spend at least 16 hours a day lurking on the site. What a shame.

Be fair now, must've been some Hillary emails involved here too somewhere. ANTIFA!

bob smith, susanlea, NowNow, is that enough, or do you need more? I'm done. You're still pathetic. Only becoming more so by the day.

I'll make a deal with you. You add something of interest to a topic, just once, and I'll stop commenting on the rest of your countless empty posts. Or is trolling the only thing that gets you off?

Ahhh, always going off-topic and after the messenger and ignoring what's relevant. Hopeless. And name calling, what, stoner? You chose that name, not me.

Bold? According to who? Judge stoner holding court again? You're just an oversized troll.

Are you judge and jury now? Who TF cares if it was half, a quarter or all of them. Are you going to be losing sleep now over parsing the numbers? The guy is just a washed-up, two-bit wannabe rock star and an imposter of the highest order. I definitely couldn't give a toss how many it was. It's the pathetic irony that's key here. https://www.thedailybeast.com/kid-rocks-restaurant-closes-to-avoid-trumps-ice-raids/ https://www.newsweek.com/kid-rock-ice-raids-nashville-restaurant-2073012 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/15/kid-rock-restaurant-ice-raids

Absolutely riveting stuff. So if I’m reading you right, and I like to think I am, though there’s every chance you’ve beamed in from a parallel universe where common sense is charged extra, you’re telling us that the world is turning its back on heterosexual relationships… and that this is somehow a win for women? And now here’s the twist. I assume, from the way you’ve worded this, that you must be talking about people having sex with themselves. That’s the only explanation I can deduce from your observations. A man alone in his room with nothing but his own reflection and a packet of tissues. That’s your new societal trend, is it? You’ve cracked the code. The new norm is just loads of people giving themselves a cheeky wink and saying, “Go on then, treat yourself.” I must admit, I’m struggling to figure out whether that makes someone gay or straight. Is it gay if you’re the same person? Or is it the most heterosexual act possible because you are technically with someone of the opposite sex… unless you count both personalities? What if you’re nonbinary but only during foreplay? It’s all terribly confusing. Also, big applause for the bit where you managed to observe advertising trends without any judgment whatsoever, just a calm, scientific analysis, the kind one might perform while dissecting a frog or reading the back of a shampoo bottle. You’ve bravely noticed that major brands are using images of people who aren’t straight white couples from the 1950s. Bold of them, I know. Next they’ll be showing left handed people eating yogurt. Chaos. And let’s not skip past your bombshell that if you were a woman, you wouldn’t want to date a modern man. Stunning insight. Not because it’s wrong, just because I had no idea you were considering that transition. Best of luck. Hope your new self enjoys long walks, scented candles, and not dating men who rant about adverts on internet forums. Anyway, please do keep observing society for us from your front row seat in the Year of Our Lord 1953. We all feel a bit safer knowing you’re watching.

Oh, no, definitely don't stop. Your rubbish is definitely high level verbal excrement. It usually takes someone like Susan to be able to even come close to matching your level for frogs sakes.

Maybe he lives in the states and they call him that because of his strange accent. But it would take a brain to figure that one out, so you're excused. Just imagine though someone tried to copy your name by matching another word starting with "F" to go with frogs. Oh, the possibilities...

I give you credit for having the patience and sheer endurance to engage with the mental midgetry of the Trump cultists who troll this forum. Honestly, it’s a waste of your energy. Most of them aren’t even American and have no clue what it actually means to live under the consequences of Trump’s destructive policies. They also all follow the same tired, repetitive script every time Trump is criticized. There’s no originality, no substance. Step one, insult the person calling him out. Step two, drag up some irrelevant relic from a past administration to distract. Step three, pivot to lazy whataboutism to dodge the real issue. They never engage with the facts. Because they can’t. They have no argument. Take the current topic. This isn’t about left or right. It doesn’t make you a “lefty” to call out something obviously reckless, yet that is a big part of their go-to whining. Giving $140 billion in advanced weaponry to MBS is dangerous, period. If you support that, you’re not being political, you’re making a moral failure. But instead of confronting that reality, they argue in circles and try to bury the conversation in noise. The upside is they’re loud but few. Just look at the reactions to the original post. Nineteen positive, four negative. That’s nearly five to one against Trump’s position. The numbers don’t lie. At the end of the day, you’re not changing their minds. You’re arguing with a group that’s shouting at a wall. They bring no merit, no facts, and no one with a functioning brain takes them seriously. Sometimes the smartest move is to stop feeding the noise and let them keep spiraling into irrelevance.
