  1. Of course he does. Have you see the massive israeli demonstrations calling for him to go- one demonstrator called him a dictator? Netanyahu knows soon as the conflict is over he is over. IMO if it were up to him it'd probably be going for the next 5 years.
  2. Israel, IMO is only good at telling lies, and as they don't allow independent verification, some countries leaders are foolish enough to believe them. Apparently israel bombed the Iranian consulate in Damascus. So much for Biden's pleas to stop the conflict spreading. Expect more attacks on American bases in the region in retaliation and more bombings in retaliation for that- and so the wheel turns and more deaths. The world is full of sorrow and the tears of widows and orphans. Humans are a vile species, always killing their own.
  3. There is also nowhere to put them as everywhere is bombed to bits. Perhaps he wants Davy Jones to take them.
  4. You need to prove that Trump is a Putin supporter in real life and not just in your fevered imagination. Which of us Trump supporters want to weaken America? You can't just go around making statements like that without some proof. Prove it or it isn't true.
  5. LOL. The people running the investigation would likely be the ones that took the money.
  6. Would that be because the money for maintenance was stolen, or because there never was any money for maintenance? Seems everything connected to Pattaya officialdom fails. It's a long list of failures. However, do not despair, the money no doubt got into the right pockets, which IMO is the normal reason for public projects in Pattaya.
  7. If you said that to a Thai, they might say that you didn't have to do all that. You may think your largess gives you some "rights" in Thailand, but Thais will disagree. They might even think you are some sort of idiot for not spending your money on yourself ( and of course any Thai family you may have acquired ).
  8. It's April 1. This is obviously an April Fool joke.
  9. Did he actually write that or is it a fake? There is a lot of fake news out there, such as that Biden is absolutely fit for another 4 years as POTUS.
  10. He really does seem to be his own worst enemy. I wonder if his minders approved the message before he said it.
  11. They have the right to be whatever they want, as long as it doesn't break the law. Restricting gender-affirming care for minors and excluding trans women from participating in sports teams aligned with their gender identity is IMO an entirely proper thing to do. Children have no idea what they want to be when they grow up and are easily swayed by fads, while genetic males have a built in advantage over real women in sports. I'd have thought that was self evident.
  12. Did you ever hear of the Inquisition? They committed enough crimes for Christianity to be banned, but they were not. You mistake what madmen do in the name of Islam for Islam.
  13. The Thais, most of which have probably never used it for what you use it for have no problem with it. That's the only opinion that matters.
  14. It's interesting that you post something entirely factual and 2 ?people give it a laugh emoji.
  15. You can add British Doctors to that. In London when I found out a Dr I worked with liked Thailand I thought we had something in common, but I wuz wrong, biggly. I doubt he ever strayed from the environs of his 5* hotels and resorts and would certainly never pass the curtain to a gogo bar. Given I never stayed in a 5 * anything in LOS, we didn't have much to talk about, after all. However, I think I got more out of Thailand than he ever did, so his loss.
  16. That's not it. They probably, like many ( ? most ) western men born post WW2 never met a woman that actually paid them attention longer than necessary to get them ringed. So when they move to Thailand and meet a Thai girl that does, they think it must be true love. I actually thought that from my very first Thai rental, but I left and went back to work before the conditioning set in so was able to resist selling all that I had and buying her a house, a car and paying the vet fees for life.
  17. You are a wise man, but somehow I don't think she cares what you say. In my case I liked my wife's friends, but I'd have happily banned her family from darkening my door. Should never have let her move me to the village. Pattaya was too far away and we didn't have anywhere for them to stay with us anyway.
  18. I thought it was possible that our civilisation was over when there were only 8 genders, but if they are multiplying like that I'm certain we are doomed.
  19. I'll have to take your word for that. Unless they have dating on the other side I won't be having the opportunity of finding out for myself.
  20. A pretty good red flag would be a handbag in the face, or getting a good kicking from her boyfriend that had just popped off to use the loo. Are Thai girls that easy? Even in the west I wouldn't expect a random girl to be up for it with a complete stranger. I could be wrong, of course. Youth is a foreign country for me, and for all I know they could all be up for it with any passing penis. I like to think they are not that easy though. I sometimes got the impression that everyone but myself was having it off at the drop of a hat, but I didn't know the password for a good time. Now I subscribe more to the notion that it's just not that easy, and guys that do try for a one off night of naughtiness get a lot of slapped faces for each episode of horizontal folk dancing. In February of 1978 I did get within striking distance of getting a leg over, but she declined and said that she'd used the last of her condoms already. I suppose that is the equivalent of saying that they are washing their hair when they don't want to go out on a date, or as in my case it's that their boyfriend just returned from a long holiday overseas. I still wonder how it would have gone if I had said that I had a couple of them myself. I actually stayed friends with her for some years after, but never got a leg over.
  21. You must be a brave man to drink water out of a free machine in Thailand. The guest house I lived in in Pattaya had a free water machine but I doubt the filters were ever changed. I only used it for water in the fish tank. I'm old enough to remember when even cheap restaurants had Nam Plah ( free water ) for diners, but that ended last century. I used to dine at a nice restaurant in Pattaya near Kiss that had Nam Plah, but a car drove into it and the restaurant closed after that. Then it was only 10 baht bottles. I used to eat at a hole in the wall restaurant near Grace dentist in Chiang Mai after seeing the dentist, and I think they had free water about 6 years ago, but I might remember wrong. I'm tired of having to buy bottled water every time I need to sit down and escape the heat. I'm surprised you don't carry a bottle of water for the heat. I did. You could fill a nice bottle of a common brand at home and use that in a restaurant. They would think you bought it there, so you could sit for free.
  22. Forgive them Lord for they know not what they do. NEVER! The vandals that destroyed Washington Square to put up another mall deserve to be consigned to the very bottom tier of Hades for ever and ever and ever. How many malls can one city need in the central zone? Are they trying to make Bkk the world hub of malls?
  23. I'm sorry to hear that. I spent a few happy hours browsing in the Asia Books store in the big hotel near Soi 4. Is it because people don't read books in LOS anymore, or they just relocated? In NZ, even the small rural town I live in has a thriving bookstore.
