Have you ever read this on TV?????? Who said this.... On TV? Any guesses? And, this is so true, too.....!Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:38:38 +0000let us be clear, this is not an advice. this purely hyothetic brainplay. One could tell the Cambodian authorities that he lost his passport on a road trip from for Vietnam to Cambodia.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:37:41 +0000That is certainly the paint, and not the sunroof glass as it ends before that in a curved edge. cant tell much, need a better zoomed photo, you really got us curious. :DSun, 07 Jun 2026 15:36:00 +0000Do you pull out of wars by starting them? I learn something new every day it seems. Well NATO wasn't interested in an ME war, because they use common sense, in contradiction with Trump and you. Yeah you right, the US is still controlled by the terrorist Jew leading Israel. Epstein wasn't killed for no reason, but it was too late. Iran is/was a problem ever since the US started to meddle in their politics decades ago. Trump a visionary????????? By lunchtime he can't remember what he had for breakfast, and tomorrow doesn't even come up in his mindSun, 07 Jun 2026 15:35:14 +0000There is a problem. It may well be that the average Iranian is getting tired of the Mullahs. There are 80 million Iranians. Once a US GI sets foot on Iranian soil, the US will have to fight 80 million partisans. Regardless who is in Power in Teheran. The Iranians (the Persians) have outlasted every civilisation before and after. The national consensus is unchanged: Regardless who is in power: We remain Persians. Even the Mongolian Khan's had to accept it. Not to worry: 2 months before the mid-term elections, Donald will declare "victory". One way or the other.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:32:50 +0000Foreign nationals aren't allowed to unlawfully transport firearms. "Convicted for unlawful transport of firearms in Cleveland, Tennessee". https://x.com/ERONewOrleans/status/2063264144447418404?s=20Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:32:43 +0000I am NOT riled, in the least. All authors love feedback. However, when feedback contains ZERO INFORMATION, then we are at a loss how to help our readers. You used a symbol, a single emoji, without explaining the reason(s) you are confused, or are unclear. Now that you have used plain English, it is up to the author to help you understand what should have been obvious from the beginning. The worst abuse is to criticize an author without informing the author exactly what you find to be objectionable. You provided ZERO information when you used the QuestionMark Emoji. This does NOTHING other than stir up nebulous negativity, and this is why it is an abuse of the proper way to provide feedback to the author. Still: It is admirable that TV has now changed a bit to identify and show the users of the QuestionMark Emoji reaction symbol. This is the only way for authors improve, through feedback from readers. When you identify exactly what is confusing you, then the author can decide if he/she wishes to take the time to elucidate further in order to try to resolve your confustion. I never reply to ThumbsDown or ThumbsUp, or any other kinds of emoji. However, when you use the QuestionMark emoji, then I feel more motivated to reply to people like you. Hope this is clear.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:25:16 +0000Who is he? Where does he hang out? What does he do on the weekends?Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:25:15 +0000Actually, three tier justice. Just try and wear a badge/flag/placard supporting Palestine; you can be arrested, fired from your job, denied access to public places, whether you are peaceful or not. There is one ethnicity who are protected at all costs....Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:18:42 +0000You said "IMHO: Use of the QUESTION-MARK Emoji, WITHOUT Attribution, is the very worst abuse of the system." What did you expect to happen? And you failed to explain why it was the very worst abuse. It is funny that it riles you so much.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:14:47 +0000Sukhumvit on the MRT and Phaya Thai on the BTS have long queues only at one end. Walk to the other set of ticket machines at the opposite end of the station - no queues: everyone just queues at the end that everyone comes in to. This doesn't work at Asoke and Siam as both ends are equally busy. But definitely works at Sukhumvit MRT and Phaya Thai BTS.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:12:31 +0000To Josephbloggs... Fm Gamma You have asked for clarification of my comment.... ALSO.... While the forum has improved by finally showing the name of the person, YOU, using the question mark, a major problem remains. Knowing your identity is helpful to me, but your use of a simple symbol still fails to explain exactly why you are confused. Without written words pointing out the specific problem in the text, the author, ME, has zero information to fix it for you. To actually receive clarification, you must write a sentence explaining exactly what you do not understand. Are you able to pinpoint exactly what you find UNCLEAR? IF you can...I will do my best. But, if you DO NOT KNOW what is unclear, then I cannot help you further. Do you understand this dilemma, Khun Joseph? I am here and willing to help you if I possibly can. Fortunately, now, the TV forum helps me to identify you, the confused one, so that I can respond more constructively. Please provide more information about your confusion. Thank you. Best regards, Gamma IMPORTANT NOTE: There is a very wellknown quote that is going around on TV::: It goes like this.... I CAN EXPLAIN IT TO YOU...but.... I CANNOT UNDERSTAND IT FOR YOU.... Have you ever read this on TV??????Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:07:13 +0000Patient - Nurse, please bring tablet Nurse - What kind of tablet? Patient - One to use on the net Nurse - why? Patient - I desperately need to dish out thumbs down Nurse - what is that? Patient - I hate these guys on a forum Nurse - I will bring the shrink tomorrowSun, 07 Jun 2026 15:05:51 +0000I get medication for this from my local government hospital. I am on Duodart, prescribed by my Urologist. Some symptoms have improved. others not getting worse. Been on it nearly 3 years nowSun, 07 Jun 2026 15:03:48 +0000Nope, my specific search led me to specific links about the specific chants. I was there on many many occasions when this chant was sung. I have included specific links in a post above one of which even includes the full lyrics.I was just trying to help Nick find it for himself as he wanted me to type out the racist lyrics which is a ludicrous thing to ask. No hallucination. My experience. Backed by links and reports.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:03:25 +0000Look at it this way, Rocky: you’ve got more dedicated followers than some influencers.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:02:18 +0000From the comments if the individual FED governors the majority support a rate increase, but definitely not rate lowering I can only imagine the tantrum Trump will throw when his appointee doesn't lower the rates. https://finance.yahoo.com/economy/policy/articles/trump-says-fed-rate-increase-135215588.html Trump Says Fed Rate Increase Would Be Wrong, Again Calls for Cut (Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump said Federal Reserve policymakers would be wrong to raise interest rates after a blowout US jobs report, while insisting he doesn’t want to influence Kevin Warsh before he chairs his first Fed meeting. “Nowadays when you have good reports, the market goes down because they think they’re going to raise interest rates,” Trump said in an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press airing Sunday. “There’s no reason to raise interest rates.”Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:01:03 +0000Reducing Trump to a petty criminal is absurd. He's a visionary. As far as I know, Trump's long term goal is still to pull the US out of wars in the Middle East forever. It's not that simple though because for one thing, he had to extricate from NATO ... and the US still has ties with Israel ... and Iran is/was a problem. Terrorist groups ... too many complexities. But that does appear to be his long-term vision. He may not pull it off, but if he does, no more wars in the Middle East would be one of the greatest achievements of any president ever. And he's still a visionary for trying to pull it off, even if it doesn't succeed.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:00:33 +0000No, the AI is making it up. This is called an Hallucination, and is a major issue with the generative AI tool. If you pushed back on the response, something along the lines of "I don't remember that song", it will probably correct itself. "Trigger" is picked up by the AI as there are specific "trigger offences" contained within the Football Offences Act of 1991. What AI will do is misconstrue or misrepresent sources. On occasion, I have seen it make up sources. Using the tools are fine, but cross check the sources cited.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 15:00:29 +0000Reducing Trump to a petty criminal is absurd. He's a visionary.

My wife's friend came round with a product that is like a soil but it is mixed with cat urine. Sprinkle that around in your ceiling and the rats will vacate. I don't know what it was called, I can ask tomorrow. I think most Thais would know it.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:59:37 +0000Later in the day I got round to contemplating just how deeply sick and deranged this is ... OMG Complete cultural bankruptcy after 250 years. Only 35 years ago the US was in pole position to be the determining factor and force for good and benevolence across the planet. Squandered. By the people themselves. For Trump is but a symptom - a freely elected symptom.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:59:36 +0000Or maybe the emoji poster should only be visible to the recipient. Too many snowflakes on here worried about not being agreed with. As for suggested emojis how about one of these for polarizing leftist/rightist/Trump US BS.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:58:08 +0000Expattax Thai (ETT) comes across -- with its guides, websites, and webinars -- as a professional and competent organization (at least its formatting and lack of typos says "professional") But some of their suggestions wreak of snake oil. In their 2026 tax guide they suggest that, if you have an LTR WP visa and thus no remitted assessable income, you should still file a null tax return listing that non assessable income somewhere on the return (where? there's no comment section) -- and declaring it non assessable due to LTR visa status. Why? Because this way, when you show up on TRD's radar screen, they'll know why you didn't file. But why would you show up on TRD's radar screen? On another of their youtube presentations they point out that remittances of less than 1.2 million baht don't trigger a looksee at TRD. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OmLY-G7--uY So, keep you remittances below 1.2M. This would apply to all, not just LTR visa holders. Then, they point out that CRS and FATCA reporting will bring you to TRD's attention. Well, I don't know about CRS, but FATCA reporting doesn't have the US reporting 1099 and W2 income data to Thailand of "US persons." And even if they did, if it's not remitted income, it's of no concern to Thailand. No, FATCA came about more for the US to keep track of worldwide income of its "US persons." However, yes, FATCA does report to Thailand US income of Thai citizens: "U.S. to Thailand Flow: Under the reciprocal framework of the agreement, the IRS is obligated to share financial account information of Thai citizens living or holding assets in the U.S. with Thailand." But you -- as a US expat -- have nothing to fear from FATCA reporting re TRD's radar screen. So, ETT, why all these scare tactics? Business slow? Certainly if TRD somehow remotely identified me for a chat, I could much better explain my situation than you can in a comments section of a tax return. Even without an LTR visa, I could explain, in detail, why my assessable income, due to DTA, doesn't reach the taxable threshold. No, I don't need a TIN from you for 7500 baht -- needed in order to file a tax return. And, no, I certainly don't need to pay a minimum of 8000 baht for a tax return that's all zeros, except in the remarks section delineating non assessable income. Why would I want to draw attention to myself at TRD, when otherwise I wouldn't.......and which I could much better explain away than you ever could in a remarks section. Snake oil. Shame on you.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:58:00 +0000It's the same 5 or 6 posters each week. They lack courage in real life. No substance and no hobbies. Thumbs down gives them a dopemine hit. It means their real life is lousy. In real life emojis don't exist.Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:57:54 +0000
