There is no conversation, just competition. Him and @fredwiggy the same. But when you play them at their game and beat them, they lose it &#x1F60A; Wordy claiming that he proved you wrong every time, even though there is no evidence of that to be seen anywhere and the other one, just disappearing from the conversation and getting his humiliations removed when the going gets tough. Both pathetic human beings, stuck in the middle of nowhere, taking their frustrations out here.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:45:21 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Farage - Yet more undeclared benefits.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398131-farage-yet-more-undeclared-benefits/?do=findComment&comment=20585087]]></link><description>OReform UK Ltd leader Nigel Farage has been reported to the Parliamentary Standards Committee (PSC) a second time, on this occasion for failing to declare benefits received from convicted felon George Cottrell.  Curiously these benefits are reported to actually include the personal security, a cost he previously claimed was paid by the &#xA3;5million bug which is the subject of his first report to the PSC.  While it was The Sunday Times that broke this news story, it&#x2019;s behind a paywall so I&#x2019;ve provided a BBC report to this news item.   https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy0424end7vo</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:44:41 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Putin, Zelenskyy Hold Separate Calls With Trump</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398116-putin-zelenskyy-hold-separate-calls-with-trump/?do=findComment&comment=20585086]]></link><description>We all know donnie diapers symphaties by now.... :-(</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:44:14 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trump has re-defined corruption</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397886-trump-has-re-defined-corruption/?do=findComment&comment=20585085]]></link><description>Pardons for sale.

After full-time, if it's a draw, reduce the number of players on the pitch by 2 each side. Then every 15 minutes, continue reducing the number of players by 2 each side. Eventually, the pitch will be so wide open that great players will score much more easily than under normal play. More exciting and fair than penalty kicks.  I hope they implement it. Sounds like a great idea. Never found penalty kicks to be fair.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:41:46 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Most overrated bands of all time</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397916-most-overrated-bands-of-all-time/?do=findComment&comment=20585082]]></link><description>It did have its heyday.

He tried to enter a temple that they had set up, as he is half Jewish, and he was denied entry after realizing the place was being guarded by seven local policemen, who are obviously being paid off by the local rabbi. They questioned him, asked him where he was from and then told him to leave. The locals seem to support them as they are signing two and three year leases, and paying cash in advance for the rentals, as a lot of other people are fleeing the island.   I used to love that island. Gorgeous place. But yikes. Not now, and likely never again. Everything seems to be changing and shifting in today's world.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:39:37 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>FIFA Madness</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398130-fifa-madness/?do=findComment&comment=20585077]]></link><description>Lionel Mess's wife wanted to divorce him.

I don't care if it's an American turbo virgin or a more sinister social engineering funder, the truth remains that this article is a typical Monday night in Thailand amongst 'le locals', and in many other non-European majority countries is an 8:00-8:30pm on a Monday night occurrence, but of course isn't reported on anywhere near as much.  Not that I really care because three-digit IQ people who aren't basement dwelling autists have the intelligence to see through nonsense anyway, so take it all as comedy. Especially when looking at murder rates per capita by country. To put things into perspective the average murder per 100k in Europe is around 2. In many countries across the Americas, Africa and to a lesser extent Asia, that number is very docile and often 10+ times higher.</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:38:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>FIFA Madness</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398130-fifa-madness/?do=findComment&comment=20585072]]></link><description>From the grapevine  1 - Portugal is being investigated for bribing referees in their win over Croatia.

But it seems they can do nothing else. When literally every situation is turned into a p*ssing contest by the paranoid idiots, you realise that they cannot escape their limitations. Many times I've given them the opportunity to have normal conversations, but they cannot do it. They are always looking for an angle that isn't there. Look at @Hummin's stupid and paranoid post about me "taking a group of people..." It's just nuts. Using ChatGPT to put together a nonsense post, talking about me avoiding specific questions when that is actually what he does, on a consistent basis. Usually with the line "I don't owe you an explanation" after I've replied to his specific questions and then it's my turn to ask. These are just low quality people, pretending to be more than they really are, IMHO.

Trump the coward represents everything they abhorred.   He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W. look smart and articulate. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws - he would make a Trump. And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: 'My God… what… have… I… created?  Unappealing, unattractive, idiotic, incompetent, hateful, hurtful, abrasive, rude, blowhard, liar, cheater, thief, infantile, failure, loser, fraud, sexual abuser, likely serial statutory rapist, incestuous, tax cheat, insurrectionist, un-American, dictator-loving dictator wannabe, out of control, sociopathic, convicted felon, toxic narcissist &amp; brutish A-hole.  “I just can’t imagine two human beings who are more dissimilar than George Washington and Donald Trump,” Ron Chernow, the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of our first president, told me, on the occasion of the 250th birthday party for America that Trump has hijacked.  “Washington was discreet, reserved, courteous — he avoided any kind of show or ostentation or self-promotion,” Chernow said. “With Donald Trump, it’s nonstop bragging and boasting and self-promotion that would have been, I think, completely alien to George Washington, and very much counter to his idea of the way that a public servant should behave.”  The hero who commanded the Continental Army was protective of the nascent democracy, realizing its fragility. Cadet Bone Spurs maliciously erodes it, seeing it as a hindrance to his lust for untrammeled power and cash grabs.  Washington was beloved by many for giving away power he could have kept. Trump is reviled by many for snatching power he isn’t entitled to. One was methodical and judicious, hoping to consult with the Senate more than the Senate even wanted him to. The other is driven by whims, co-opting legislative powers on tariffs and war. Washington actively avoided, as president, interfering in congressional races. Trump meddles in primaries to exact revenge and test fealty.  One famously wouldn’t tell a lie. The other famously can’t stop telling lies.  https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/04/opinion/founding-father-vs-foundering-toddler.html?smid=nytcore-android-share]]></description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_07/images(71).jpeg.4f9a42d966c77f5747d963e25c5265c4.jpeg" length="46445" type="image/jpeg"/><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:34:25 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>British Woman Charged With Murder in Pattaya</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1398073-british-woman-charged-with-murder-in-pattaya/?do=findComment&comment=20585065]]></link><description>As a percentage of farang Vs Thai population then... yes...it's crazy farang that are behaving badly</description><pubDate>Mon, 06 Jul 2026 01:34:16 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
