  1. And yet you wish her and her parents would be captured? Your parents must be so proud.
  2. Not according to FlightRadar 24.
  3. You don't think perhaps they were busy?? You want them to be having a conversation with ATC when they are desperately trying to save their lives and those of all on board (and on the ground)? They are trained to concentrate on flying before communication - that is the last priority in an emergency. What the hell are you on about with throat slitting, electromagnetic attacks and Chinese nonsense? Have some respect and get a grip of yourself.
  4. It's a stupid argument and you know it is. I could just as well ask how how much CO2 there would be if it wasn't for her? It's just as stupid. Is that really all you have? Can't bear to admit that she might be doing a teeny bit of good among the young (non-old man bitter right winger) generation? Is she only allowed to have one cause?
  5. I didn't have to wait long before another comment did I @Yellowtail. Criticising her looks and wishing she had been taken hostage, even wishing her parents would be taken hostage. See what I mean? Sick, bitter, nasty men, triggered by a 22-year old girl. Absolutely disgusting.
  6. I am not going to track through your entire post history to see if you ever commented on her looks, her disabilities, her character. I just know I see those unjustified personal attacks on her all the time on here, and always by the same bunch of posters of a similar ilk. I can't keep track of which nasty old man said what. That's why I said "if you haven't done that then I apologise", and I mean it. If you never have then I exclude you from "you guys". I already listed her achievements in response to you comment that she's never done anything. Don't try and shift the goalposts and play semantics, it is very dull and I am not going to join in. I listed her accomplishments, and for any 22 year old they are mightily impressive, no?
  7. Oh dear. I said "all you guys" meaning the right, I see so many posts of people mocking her looks, her hair, her disabilities - there is one just above calling her a "retard" for heavens sake. If you personally have never done so then I apologise for including you in the "you guys". But unquestionably the right do pick on those things, this forum is full of examples. I don't lie, I just say things you disagree with. And if and when I am wrong I apologise. That's what bigger people do.
  8. Never done anything??? Did you spark a movement of millions of students as a 15-year old? Have you spoken at a UN conference as a child? Have you addressed DAVOS? Spoken at COP? How many Nobel Prizes have you been nominated for exactly? Have you ever been Time Person of the Year? Have you had several books published? Have you raised millions of dollars and given it away? All by the time you were 22? I'm guessing you classify me as "left". I actually find her quite irritating and a little naive. However I admire that she follows her convictions and is genuinely sacrificing to try to affect change no matter how futile it may be. A principled young lady doing what she believes in. The fact that she triggers all the bitter old right wing men is hilarious - that's what I admire most about her. And all you guys criticise her disabilities, her looks, feel so threatened by her. It's quite pathetic. "What has she ever done". Jeez. What you you ever done except sit behind your keyboard and slam a 22 year old girl?
  9. I know riclag won't see or reply to this as he mutes everyone who doesn't live in his echo chamber. I just had a call with a client who is in LA and I asked him how things are over there. He said everything is pretty much confined to about three blocks, the rest of the city is completely normal, so while it can look like chaos from the outside it really isn't the case. That backs up the logic of a one square mile curfew zone. Anyway, I look forward to riclag's next conversation to himself about Mexican insurgents, far left, oppressed criminal migrants, blah blah blah. All whilst no doubt sitting in his underpants watching Fox News and eating Cheetos. Edit: dammit, his next post came as I was typing mine. "The evil power of the left". It didn't disappoint with a post from an extreme right wing Senator who also blames Communists and China for the riots. Yes, really. You couldn't make it up, except she just did. I worry for his mental health as the diet of misinformation he gorges himself on cannot be good for anyone, especially when you mute all other opinions.
  10. He literally only replies to his own posts these days as I think he has everyone who disagrees with him on ignore. The very definition of an echo chamber.
  11. Ah, one of those "in my country" guys.
  12. SubTotal Abdominal Haemorrhage? And no, it does not have to be included in the listed price as long as it is clearly stated that VAT will be added - usually it's standard to put it at the bottom of the menu pages, just as this restaurant does. If you do not include it in the price and it is not clearly stated that it will be added then this can be considered deceptive pricing. But again, there was nothing deceptive at all going on here, just two cheap charlies trying to get away with a massive 21 baht.
  13. Is this true? Whenever I have needed one (including for a recent DL renewal) you just download the COR application form from here and check "for driving license" and then circle whether it is a motorbike or car and then go to immigration with your TM30 (and TM47 if you have one). https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/downloads_en/ You don't need anything from the DLT beforehand. It's never taken more than a week to receive and costs 200 baht. This is all for CW. Maybe some weird office elsewhere does require a request from the DLT first but I can't imagine why. And to the OP: book an appointment at immigration first if you are using CW. It cuts your hanging around time from potentially several hours to just a few minutes. https://gov.immigration1.queueonline.net/appointment/login.html?v35
  14. Yes, of course it is. But nothing wrong with what they did when it states on every page of their menu that 7% VAT will be added.
  15. Maybe because all the bad stuff is happening in one square mile. And a curfew is massively disrupting for business and normal people so they want to minimise that. There are not city-wide disturbances.
  16. No, they are not legally obliged to have it on a regular sales receipt, although many do. However if they are charging VAT they are legally obliged to produce a tax invoice if asked. If it is a business purchase and you plan to reclaim the input VAT you need a tax invoice which shows your company details, the seller's company details, and the VAT breakdown. Any VAT registered company will know about this, it is very very standard. If I buy stuff in a supermarket for my company I will ask for a tax invoice (there is often a separate desk that just deals with these so as not to clog up the checkout). Normally you only need to give your company's tax ID and it'll come up on their system. If my admin lady goes to 7-Eleven to buy milk for the coffee machine she gets a tax invoice. I have got them myself from many restaurants if taking staff or clients for food or drinks. I guarantee if you ask this particular restaurant for a tax invoice after the meal they'll ask for your company info and give you one.
  17. You've really never heard of them? Ramen noodles are nothing like Mama noodles. They are Japanese wheat noodles served in a broth with various toppings and usually some slow braised pork. It is a standalone dine in restaurant that is located around the perimeter of a PTT station - they often have lots of full restaurants. 300 baht is nothing extraordinary for ramen noodles in a restaurant. Either you are the cheapest guy around or you are being deliberately obtuse. Here is the restaurant in question. Does 300 baht look out of place for a meal there?
  18. Correct. And this restaurant does display it on their receipts, as well as clearly stating 7% will be added on every page of their menu. This restaurant has done absolutely nothing wrong. I await your comment. I doubt there is a dine in restaurant anywhere that isn't VAT registered. Thailand is pretty strict when it comes to VAT enforcement and the rules around registration.
  19. It was. Clearly marked on every page of the menu, as has been mentioned several times.
  20. I was insulting the customer, but feel free to take it.
  21. This restaurant is rare in that they don't charge service charge which makes the complaint all the more ludicrous.
