  1. I wonder if he devoted more than one minute to coming up with this plan. It would appear this is proof that the art of parenting is on the decline. Who raised this absolute fool? What a dunce. How did he think he was going to actually get away with this? The real question is why is this dummy so extremely emasculated? So what if she is hot and sexy. Who does this kind of thing for a woman? What a fool. He is doing no justice to his gender. A true half man.
  2. I tend to disagree. The bottom line is that there is never any upside to engaging a Thai person, much less a group of them, in a fight. If you kick their butt, you lose. If they kick your butt, you lose. No upside to that formula. Best to just keep your cool, show respect, and avoid fights in public. Remember, this is a land of face. Even something as benign as a street race, can mean they end up losing face. Which for well developed, normal people is not a big deal. But for seriously immature men, thugs, punks and mental midgets, or boys, it is.
  3. Very accurate. And many of us have enough self esteem, which allows us to have thick skin. And self awareness too, which often takes some introspection and inner work, which is extremely rare here. I can handle an insult or a perceived lack of respect. I know who I am. Many can't. Many just lose it. Real men don't cause harm to others, due to an insult. Half men, cowards, punks, thugs, men who look like men but have the emotional development of a 13 year old often will overreact.
  4. It depends on the gal, and it really depends in how long she was in the business. Many of us think there is a sort of sliding scale of psychologocal damage. Up to 150 men, no big deal. I think an awful lot of women in the West have that number beat, despite the low numbers they often quote. 150-500 men she is experienced, but will likely be fine. 500-1000 men (very common here, though also common for a civilian in the US too!) is approaching the point where there might be some permament damage. Depends on the depth of heart. 1000-2000 men, and there is likely to be long term bitterness towards men. 2000 men and over is (ATW) what we refer to as "around the world". Little chance of being able to engage emotionally in a healthy manner, ever again. There are likely exceptions. But not many.
  5. I find that to be just the opposite. I love so many things about this place. Now, if you were talking about the US, I would agree. That place is depressing, predictable, monotonous, stupid overpriced, boring and stifling. Not here. Not for me.
  6. It is systemic. Parents favor boys, and tell them so. They end up feeling superior even though it is patently untrue. There is such an abundance of delusion within that favoritism.
  7. Notice how many of these cases we are seeing all of a sudden, just prior to the election. As if we are being asked to believe ChaCha and the cops are sincere about fighting corruption. 8 years too late. You had ample time to demonstrate an interest in cleaning the place up. We all know who and what you are.
  8. I always check my passport stamp, to make sure the dates are correct, since I use a one year, multiple entry retirement visa. If there is no entry stamp, immigration obviously goofed up. To lock a tourist up for their immigration's own mistake is utterly heinous, deplorable, shameful, bitter, xenophobic, nasty and foul. I complain about immigration often. I consider them to be one of the least pleasant, and most toxic branches of this horrendous administration. Your honor, the defense rests.
  9. Well, for repeat offenders, who commit crimes of consequence, you know the system is utterly broken when they are spending more time on the streets, than in prison. Perhaps more needs to be done. Mandatory castration, exile, or worse? And I say that as a centrist democrat. Obviously, not a snowflake. And some of my friends recoil in horror. Ha!
  10. Extreme coddling. They are an overly entitled gender here in the LOS. Boys from an early age are told they are special. What parents need to start doing is to tell their sons: 1. You are nothing special. You become special when you prove yourself to be a worth person. An exemplary character. A cut above the rest. Someone who gives and does not just take. 2. Your sister is special. She works hard, she is ambitious, and she is not lazy. Prove yourself to be at least equal to her. Women run this country. 3. Respect is not freely given. It must be earned. Go out into the world and earn respect.
  11. Yes, they were the most popular party, till the heinous, power hungry, super corrupt army regime managed to outlaw them. Thanathorn was on his way towards leadership, and he may have been the one shot Thailand had, at becoming a great nation again. Now, the jurassic creeps remain in charge. Hopefully, that will change soon. And when it does, only arrest, exile or worse will be good enough for Prayuth, Prawit and Anutin.
  12. Sounds like another weak, pathetic, pathological, simple minded man, who stopped developing emotionally when he was 13. May he rot in prison, where he is sure to make some lovely new friends.
  13. There are an extremely limited number of rich tourists who visit Thailand, for a dozen valid reasons. They continue to attract primarily low to middle income Indians, Malaysians, and Chinese. Fewer Europeans and Americans and very few with real money. Rich tourists have alot of options, without ignorant luxury and wine taxes, dumb laws, and scammers. Having said that, Thailand remains a relatively safe place to travel.
  14. The retirement visa is infinitely simpler. Far fewer hurdles, and paperwork and less proof required. I despised everything about the marriage visa application process. I began to hate immigration with a passion. Since going with the retirement visa, the entire experience is less obnoxious. It is worth the switch.
  15. This man re-defines the word guilt. He has been guilty since he was a young man, and has always felt the law does not apply to him. The real question is not whether or not he is guilty of felonies. The question is, can they get a conviction, or do they want to get a conviction?
  16. Regardless of where you buy, always buy an inverter, and use a unit plenty large for the room. It is all about efficiency, which saves money in the long run. And if you are installing in a rental unit, unless the landlord agrees to pay for the unit, always make them aware of the installation, and clarify that you will be taking the unit with you, when you leave.
  17. We don't know exactly what happened. But, we do know a few things. Driving a bike at excessive speed here, or without a very good helmet, is an invitation for trouble. Ask yourself one thing. Is my life already complicated enough, without a serious bike accident? Darwin insisted that some species and some members of those species were more fit for survival than others. It would appear the roads here, and especially motorbike riders, are a perfect example of his theories in action. It takes certain qualities to survive on the roads here. Patience, being very conscious of your surroundings, driving defensively, avoiding excessive speed, especially in town, following basic traffic rules and laws, always wearing a good helmet, and avoiding being overly stupid, at all times. Many Thais, and many foreigners who live here and visit are extremely casual about driving, and seem to have little understanding of the dangers involved, and the need to be 100% focused, at all times. Especially on a motorbike.
  18. While that is true, notice how it is almost always opposition guys, and not army clowns, who are outed? That is the issue here. That is the crux of the extreme level of moral bankruptcy consistently displayed by the Prayuth regime.
  19. Good question. I think it is a good general rule of thumb, to question anything and everything the RTP says and reports. After all, what have they ever done to earn our respect and trust? Ever? Same applies to the media here.
  20. Sugar cane itself, or long bamboo staffs come to mind. They work for monkeys. They just might work for cane farmers.
  21. Men who have bombs in their homes generally do not have much goodwill towards mankind. So, when a bomb explodes and kills them, sympathy is extremely limited. Rather, it ends up purifying the oxygen in the general environment, as it relieves the area of excess toxicity. See ya!
  22. Great news. Alot of egg on the face of the Russian gangster, king vlad. Looks as if everything he thought he might accomplish with this zany invasion, is going belly up. If there is one thing the Ukraine invasion taught us, it is that vlad was not nearly as smart as many of us thought. Like Trump, he is just a very talented criminal. The major difference is vlad has the opportunity to unleash his inner psychopath, and cause alot of terror and mayhem.
  23. Always an opposition candidates behavior being questioned, while the retrograde army guys misbehave on a daily basis. Playing cards. Yeah, such questionable morality. We can't have a leader who plays cards.
  24. Wow. 14 years old. One had to wonder what the circumstances were that led her to this place. Was she kidnapped? Was she a sex slave from Burma? One wonders.
  25. Does anyone on this forum think a request for a red notice will be adhered to, much less enforced? Is the credibility of a government taken into account? Is a regime like the one we have here just ignored and scorned? For instance, when Interpol is aware that Thailand has no real interest in the bringing Thaksin, or the Red bull creep back here for trial, is that taken into account? In this case, it is unlikely they would defy their master Xi. And it is possible these thugs worked for the CCP mafia. Who knows?
