  1. My reading suggests that the DTV allows as many 180 day stays as you like with no limitations. So you can fly(or drive) out June 30 and fly back July 1 and stay till December 31 when you can do the same again. You can even do one extension per year (in Bangkok only) so you only have to leave once a year.
  2. Get one of these and do it yourself. Takes a bit of intelligence to use it. Much more accurate.
  3. When it's my time it's my time. Not going to fret about it either way. I think most of the people afraid of death are religious. Most religions are based on threats and fears. “Do this or you'll suffer forever in hell', etc. Thankfully I'm an atheist that doesn't believe any of that nonsense, so death doesn't scare me.
  4. 158/90 puts you at stage 2 hypertension. Reminds me of that runner (Jim Fix?) that died live on Johnny Carson after saying he was going to live till his 90s. Categories of Blood Pressure According to various sources, including the American Heart Association and the World Health Organization, blood pressure readings are categorized as follows: Normal blood pressure: Less than 120 mmHg (systolic) and less than 80 mmHg (diastolic) Elevated blood pressure: 120-129 mmHg (systolic) and less than 80 mmHg (diastolic) Stage 1 hypertension: 130-139 mmHg (systolic) or 80-89 mmHg (diastolic) Stage 2 hypertension: 140 mmHg (systolic) or higher, or 90 mmHg (diastolic) or higher
  5. There are no side effects from high blood pressure. That is why it is called the silent killer. Mopping floors in a hospital does not qualify you to give medical advise, Dr. Mop But he saw some self-appointed expert on YouTube say it so it must be true.
  6. Why would I believe what you say, rather then my specialist doctor? Because he saw it on YouTube where all the best doctors post only the truth.
  7. I don't see this anywhere. Is there a non-twitter link?
  8. So what's the going rate for ground Burmese?
  9. Sorry, I get my medical info reading medical journals, reading the Merck Manual, not from some self proclaimed expert on YouTube. Ever wonder why these “experts“ post this stuff on YouTube? Probably they need the money. Urologists should make nice coin in their practice, at least the competent ones.
  10. Medical info from youtube? Hahahaha
  11. Trust fund kiddie?
  12. If you're doing all that in your 30's then when you're in your 50's nothing is going to work regardless of what you take. Maybe you can get a penile implant.
  13. There was a 30 something guy in Cambodia when I lived there that took viagra every time, even though he didn't need it. A few years later he couldn't get it up without taking Viagra. Shot himself in the foot, or in this case, the penis.
  14. You think the Thai police can figure out where it went? Na, probably not.
  15. Lots of people gave laughing emojis so it looks like you're the one with no sense of humor. I suspect it would be “humour“ in your case but I doubt you could understand what that means anyway.
  16. New series today. Anthony Hopkins, etc. The series explores a side of Rome never before told - the dirty business of entertaining the masses, giving the mob what they want most - blood and sport. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10569934
  17. I have bank accts in Canada and the US that are sources for money sent to Thailand and the Philippines. I'm Canadian and all the accounts are legit as I worked in the US for over a decade.
  18. I've been using wise for a year or two. In fact, I had already uploaded my passport, etc. That's why I thought it strange they were asking again for the same stuff. I did try, as I mentioned in an earlier post, to do a transfer before I submitted any documents and it went very smoothly and no docs were needed to be uploaded. I'm beginning to think an earlier poster was correct and it was a phishing email looking for my info. I'm not going to upload anything while continuing to use the app and see if anything breaks down the road. Edit: I likely neglected to mention the demand I received was in an email, not from the app.
  19. That's the paranoia kicking in again. Better cut back on your consumption.
  20. Yes, we found out where you live. As soon as you cut this lock off, we will replace it with another larger one.
  21. I thought that too and just for fun I transferred via the app and no problems, no docs required.
  22. I don't know how they found me this time. Need another fake passport I guess.
  23. Sorry if this has already been covered. There's been so many wise issues lately I may have missed it. Just received an email demanding lots of documents be uploaded. Anyone else get the same, and how did it go?
  24. More likely like this:
