British woman breaks nearly every bone in face in Thailand
Enoon replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
It didn't work for me either. Everybody "gets" it........it's just not in the slightest bit amusing. It's just a thoroughly crass attempt at "humor". -
2022 ushered in a new dawn in Thai-Saudi relations
Enoon replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Some tedious pedant will be along soon to tell you that Wasabi, the "sauce" of your joke, is radish.......not mustard. But it was funny. -
Pheu Thai Party unveils its 10-point “think big” manifesto
Enoon replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"Kind of like" standard practice in Western Democracies. Where people get out when they are voted out and in when they are voted in. Both happening as a result of hope, effort, ability, success or failure. Where armies defend the nation.......not a single, particular, powerful, omnipresent, over-wealthy clique. The sort of system that the cabal in Thailand detest. "There is no civil solution" -
"To Protect and Serve" is a motto invented by the LAPD. . It is not a universal "Police credo". ie: Motto of RTP is "I will show you". In this case the policeman is showing the world what a **** he is. That's normal for Thai police.......it pretty much sums up his "duty". There are also many other differences between the USA and Thailand.

"Singular they, along with its inflected or derivative forms, them, their, theirs and themselves (or themself), is an epicene (gender-neutral) third-person pronoun. It typically occurs with an unspecified antecedent, in sentences such as: "Somebody left their umbrella in the office. Could you please let them know where they can get it?" "The patient should be told at the outset how much they will be required to pay." "But a journalist should not be forced to reveal their sources." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they

Bank insists I wear a mask
Enoon replied to happydays's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
..........and stand up straight, take your hands out of your pockets, get in line? **** me......you people, really.........you people. First class evidence that there is indeed: “a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress.” -

The poster to whom you are replying was commenting upon his own experience on public transport, not the OP about a bank. -

Thailand goes into battle against resurgent HIV/AIDS
Enoon replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Been running for at least 10 years: Service Workers In Group Foundation, 45-54 South Pattaya Road https://www.swingthailand.org/ "The Sex Workers IN Group (SWING) are a sex worker organisation with drop-in spaces and offices across three of Thailand’s most infamous red-light districts: Bangkok (Patpong), Koh Samui, and Pattaya (Walking Street). As an organisation working at the local, national and regional level, SWING are recognised for their expertise in developing creative and innovative core programs and projects which focus on the health and wellbeing of sex worker communities, using a human rights framework and peer-led health promotion activities..............After several years successfully implementing programs for trans* and male sex workers, SWING expanded its focus to regional areas and began to include female sex workers in its program work. SWING’s expansion involved facilitating programs in Pattaya (2006)" https://www.nswp.org/featured/service-workers-group-swing -
Thai actress “Pinky” expected to be released on bail Wednesday evening
Enoon replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Because, as a rich and "beautiful" privileged person, it was not part of the great cosmic scheme for her to suffer any more than a teeny weeny bit, she would not have been reincarnated as she is if it had been. in order not to upset the scheme, which would render the people who put her in jail liable to an unsatisfactory reincarnation themselves.......they have let her go. Blindingly obvious really. -
50th Anniversary of Air Force’s Peacemaker Planes
Enoon replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
"which is now the world’s only one remaining fleet of Peacemaker aircraft" There never were any other "fleets". 35 Peacemakers were built, specifically for use by the US in it's Vietnam War. Operational test and evaluation found them rejected for service. 1 crashed, 34 went back to the US: "The 4400th recommended the aircraft not be used in combat without a major upgrade program. Specific problems identified included a slow combat speed (135 knots (250 km/h)), a low working altitude, no capability for "zoom" escapes after delivering ordnance and a complete lack of armor protection for the crew and vital aircraft systems. On June 30, 1972, the 4400th SOS ferried the AU-23As to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona, for storage." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_AU-23_Peacemaker All eventually handed over to RTAF. -

Not just a walk in the mountains: "A collection of small trails make up the great Annapurna Circuit which is one of the most dangerous hikes in the whole world, let alone the Himalayas" https://www.thetravel.com/most-dangerous-hikes-in-the-himalayas/ -

"dog owners in Thailand.........their legal responsibility to treat the dogs properly while making sure to exercise control and restraint over them" Something that is so rare in Thailand that possession of a PB should be taken as an intent to cause harm and result in immediate prosecution.

What is the biggest mistake in life ?
Enoon replied to Social Media's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Biggest mistake is dwelling on mistakes and regretting that you didn't avoid them by making a different choice. The truth is that we don't make choices or decisions. We do what we do because a myriad influences act upon us from the moment we are born and form our personal history, which compels us to do what we do. You did the only thing you could do at the time you did it, because it wasn't in your power to do anything else. You had to do what you did.......to become what you became. The "successful" and the "unsuccessful" never made the choice/decision to be the one or the other. Just enjoy the ride and remember that we are all heading to the same destination......there are no prizes for being first one there.
