Wow!!!! Thai women were so much more appetizing before McD, KFC, and the rest moved in here...

Not too long ago, all rural Thai women were walking bare chested. That was considered normal. Of course, everything changed with the arrival of the prude Chinese to control the country....

Except that it will not work in Thailand. Vast majority of Thais do not have any income, at least not any that they declare.

Or, to express it in the Games Theory terminology, it's a "Zero Sum Game".

Ni Hau!

I must say that I really like those ThumbsDown smilies. Well done mods for that addition! At least I know now that what I'm posting hits the nerves of the lowlifes on this forum.

To quote Sting: "I'm and Alien, I'm a Legal Alien..." In your country it doesn't matter anymore, you can be incarcerated and deported just by farthing in the wind.... no matter legal or not, Just read that a wife of a US Coast Guard member was deported. Why don't you just deport Melania? Is she really legal?

Yeah, I do read a lot of comments from many military news sources. Most agree that Americas military might just lost the edge against China. And you have yourselves to blame, allowing all those Chinese spies working in your defense industry. How come that J-20 looks just like a copy of F22 Raptor?

What is World Cup? And what is Superbow? I have no idea what you're spouting about. You must be one on those Muricans speaking in some foreign dialect. Didn't you know that you're supposed to use only English on this forum?

And I think that he's slowly starting to realize that apart from being able to bully the weaker countries, his true opponents just ignore him. Putin is just toying with Donald, and Xi is giving him the middle finger. There will be no end to the Ukraine/Russia war until Putin says so, and Xi will just bring American economy to its knees, without even exerting himself very much. Goodbye America, you are no longer number one country, and soon you'll be at the bottom of the pile, technologically, economically, and socially. That is the price to pay for your corporate greed. You will no longer be the biggest military power, that role is reserved for China now, and Europe in not so distant future. Economically, other countries will dominate you, like China, Japan, and even the EU. The reality is not your scripted TV show.... Actions have consequences (and equality opposed reactions! Newtons third law of motion) I just feel sorry for the other 50% of the US citizens that did not vote for that POS. But hey, you can always emigrate, you'll be welcome in Europe, like so many famous Americans (Grandma Tina springs to mind, and some of my closest friends).

I there ever has been bigger narcissistic megalomaniac than the current POTUS, apart from Napoleon and Hitler, I'm not aware of it. And guess what, he changed the color of his MAGA hat from the communist red, to white....

I think your mind is still in your home country. A dollar an hour is a standard minimum wage here, that can make you survive for a month and feed your family. We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto...

I never tip in restaurants. It's a bad habit instituted by the Americans. Unfortunately they brought it with them when they started traveling to Europe and Asia. I understand that in the America there are TIP APPS that will let you calculate how much you should tip. And anything below 25% is a NO-NO. So what? The restaurants in the States do not pay their staff? I can understand where is comes from, where long time ago, the low level employees in the hotels and restaurants and other service establishments were supposed to live of their tips, but nowadays? In Thailand, nobody in the service industry expects tips. However, my wife still leaves the coins change in the restaurants. Sometimes, it gets really stupid, and where there is only 1 baht coin in the change, I just say "Take it!"

This is nothing new. 20+ years ago I was on a SAS flight from some European hub to Copenhagen. All the Flight attendants were elderly, which I don't really mind, but one was so fat she couldn't walk straight in the isle and had to move sideways. That was just too much for me....

Reading all this <deleted> above, I'm just so happy NOT being and American. I would probably need to remove more that 50% of my neurons to qualify!!!
