  1. And that is precisely why you never move into her house. Strategy prevents such a mindless move.
  2. This guy graduated from MIT. Maybe he has what it takes to fix the flooding problems. Maybe he can even figure out a way to get some of the trucks off the road in Central Bangkok. And how about the air? Can he come up with ways to help alleviate the horrendous air quality? Anything has to be better than Aswin. 8%? Talk about rejection. See ya!
  3. It can be fixed, but there has to be motivation for change and reform. And if it were only stupid, it would not be so bad. But, it is the daily malfeasance, corruption, dishonesty, lack of truth, transparency, improvement, progress, forward movement, and quality policing that is the real issue here. To call the RTP Mickey Mouse, would be a huge insult to everything Disney.
  4. I respectfully request that several people transfer 10 million baht each into my bank account today. I request that from now on, I am referred to as Lord Mike. I request that I be made a Thai citizen, and given a passport, without any qualifications or effort on my part. Failing the fulfillment of that request, I request that I be given a 20 year, multiple entry visa, today. I request that I never have to work again. These nitwits can request anything they want. However, in this life we need to back up our requests, or actions, with something real. Do some real work guys. Stop blabbing, and start acting. Real men act. Boys blad, and blab. What have they really done lately, to implement something tangible, other than confiscate some DVD's?
  5. You honor, I rest my case. The Thai judicial system, and the RTP are completely and irrevocably broken. It is a system which simply does not work. He should be held in custody until she can and will testify. It does not matter how long, as he already admitted to being a pathological maniac and a hazard to society. You keep him locked up! Where is the justice for the victim? As sad as the whole thing is, it is a testament to the Thai people, what there is not more crime here, considering how poor the policing is.
  6. I agree about the cautious behavior. I do not agree about the extreme paranoia, panic and fear. Wearing a mask on a motorbike, in a park, on the beach, in your car, in your home, in many outdoor places, and even at a restaurant, is silly. You are just going to remove it anyway. Does walking into a restaurant with a mask on offer any safety or protection of any sort? I get it, if someone is hacking and coughing. Otherwise, let us get on with our lives.
  7. Have you gotten legal advice, from a good source? Best to move this forward asap.
  8. Nah. They are briefly masking up in the US, due to the recent surge. It is now dropping again, and masks will be done away with. When I was there recently, very few wore masks. Japan, Taiwan, and China are the height of paranoia, yet the cases are barely dropping. Zero covid is ignorant and stupid. It is time to do away with them here, especially outdoors, on motorbikes, etc. At a given point in time it becomes ridiculous and comical. Science denial.
  9. Valid points. I see it often here. And back in the US, for that matter. I think there are self esteem issues at play. I do believe that some guys seem to believe they are not worthy of an outstanding or excellent woman. Back there, it is hard to find a great woman, unless you are content with one who is our age, which I am definitely not. I tried that, and it did not work for a dozen valid reasons. Here? There are alot of options. Alot of good women. There is no reason to be with a subpar woman here, unless that is what you think you deserve. I know I deserve a good woman, and fortunately I found a wonderful gal, who has my back, wakes up with a smile on her face, and is delightful all day long. She has a big heart, is very smart, pretty, healthy, and her family are good and honorable people. What more can you ask for in life?

  11. Your desire to be argumentative, sarcastic, and combative, seems to compel you to refuse and reject any point of view, which is contrary from your own. I love debating, as long it is based on a foundation of truth and reality. I have noticed this with many other replies you have made, not just mine. Have you ever noticed or acknowledged that? A fascinating psychological persona, you have!
  12. Ask for a good discount, free class A insurance for at least a year, and some valuable extras. The new car market here is very slow. The economy is in desperate straits. Good time to be buying.
  13. Sounds like it is time to move on, regardless of how cool her kid is. Or adopt him and get rid of her! Life is just too short for that kind of drama. And the possibility of finding a good, worthy woman here is so much higher than back home. I get pleasure, inspiration and good humor from my wife every day. Even after many years. She is emotionally consistent from one day to the next. You just can't put a price on that.
  14. It does not matter. If she walks, she walks. Plenty of others out there. We owe it to ourselves to make sure she is worthy of our devotion. Her impatience with my decision to make a commitment is such a wrong headed reason for such a decision.
  15. What are the ways you use to rid yourself of these feelings, in order to avoid destruction of your life? By not dealing with them. By not putting yourself in that kind of position. Life is short. You have to trust your instincts. If you are dating a woman who is consistently letting you down, you dump her. Quickly. You move on. There are plenty of good women here. If you get involved with one who is playing the field, you move on. It is part of the expression of dignity, and self respect. If you think she is fooling around, because she does not respond to your attempt to contact her, or because she does not show up when you have made plans, she is telling you something. And you are NOT listening. Open your ears. Alot of guys fall in love with the idea of being in love. And they devote their heart to a woman who is undeserving. So, the best course of action, if to take you time to get to know her. Time allows clarity. If it is good it will only get better. If there are problems (such as the ones you are describing), they will manifest themselves over time. This is why you do not allow yourself to get emotionally invested, until you know who she is. That takes a year, or two, or longer. If she shows you she is not worthy of your affection, and attention, you walk away. Man up. Pay tribute to your gender. Show yourself some self respect. Do not allow yourself to be abused, and treated like a street dog.
  16. However, he warned that extracts containing more than 0.2 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) will still be classified as a category 5 substance and governed by narcotics control and suppression laws. Those who wish to cultivate Cannabis and hemp must register through the FDA’s "Puk Kan" mobile application, while those who intend to cultivate these plants for commercial purposes must notify the authorities. 02.% THC? Are you kidding me? So, what this witless man is saying is, you can grow a small quantity of extraordinarily weak pot, as long as you let the authorities know you are growing it. Huh? I am not even sure there are seeds available for the super weak stuff he is referring to. So, in essence this entire program sounds like a government sponsored scam, intended to enrich the RTP. It appears to be another example of this failed administration letting down, and deceiving it's people for the 3,400th time. When will the nonstop nonsense end? Super-potent cannabis flower, with THC percentages of 25 percent and up, dominate dispensary shelves. High-THC cannabis will sell out very quickly while lower-percentage weed gathers dust. https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrisroberts/2020/06/16/science-reveals-the-cannabis-industrys-greatest-lie-youre-buying-weed-wrong-and-so-is-everyone-else/?sh=19d432082ee3
  17. Anutin is either an extraordinarily weak man, who does not believe in science, or he is simply demonstrating fealty to his pathologically insane superiors, who's thirst for power overrides any common sense, decency, morality, good business, or the ability to think independently. Whichever one he is, he is a blight on the Thai landscape. Woe is the nation, when it is run by bottom of the barrel leadership.
  18. I am not on board. I absolutely refuse to do PC. If I offend someone, it is on them, not me. A snowflake can do as they like, and bow to pressure. But that kind of wimpy behavior is only for SIMPS, and weaklings.
  19. Well, if the thugs ask for help from police that are not on their payroll, what can they expect? Not much difference between the gang thugs and the cops. The former are considered criminals, and have no authority to commit crime, unless they have the cash to pay off the cops. The latter are permitted to commit nearly any crime, and they do it with a uniform, state support, and protection at the highest levels. Does that somehow make they any more honorable? Or respected? Or credible?
  20. I can't make sense of it. Wear a mask on your motorbike, as covid should be your greatest fear in life. But, allow unvaccinated people into the country. Am I missing something here? Are they saying vaccines don't matter? Or are they finally saying we desperately need tourists? And if the latter, why not scrap the stupid Thailand pass? Where is the common sense?
  21. And it is likely a nothing burger. My guess is each subsequent variant of Omi will be weaker. Yet, the media will attempt to whip us up into a panic. Not buying any of their nonsense. Omi is good. It means we are near the end.
  22. They are already open. Hah! Looks like they defied you guys. You can't shut us down forever, fools!
  23. Just to be clear. We are supposed to be scared of Covid. You want us to live in a constant state of fear so we will not hit the streets and express our displeasure with the leadership. Correct? But, we should not be afraid of the monkey disease? OK. Got it.
  24. Love it! We all need to be able to laugh and joke. At ourselves, at others, and at total nonsense.
  25. We lived in the south for many years. Alot of hot headed people down there. This guy was NOT a close friend. Not sure what world he comes from, but in my world close friends do not kill each other. With friends like that, who needs enemies? What can one even say?
