Where's my bottle mom?  I don't have a clue about Thailand but I knew more about it than you do now when I was still in high school.  Women? Why would I have around 100 women as girlfriends, all parting as friends, and still have them to talk to, and married three times, studied 35 books on relationships with women, and have my girlfriend now, along with my ex , telling me they've never been treated better? My ex still wants to come back, so I guess she knew she was wrong, as her own mother told my girlfriend.  By the way, you forgot. I left them. and got the kids.   Oh yes, how old are you, how can you stay in Thailand if you aren't retired, and what visa are you on if you actually are here?</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:57:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Iran Agrees To Total Trump Humiliation Deal</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396608-iran-agrees-to-total-trump-humiliation-deal/?do=findComment&comment=20554039]]></link><description>"he caught you.....fired you....."

His campaign is centred on extending projects from his first term under the banner &#x201C;Bangkok Works,&#x201D; including improvements to quality of life, economic opportunities and public administration. However, opponents have called for an investigation into allegations that influential figures interfered with senior appointments and transfers within the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration. Further scrutiny has followed a controversial exercise-equipment procurement case, in which critics described the penalties imposed on some officials as too lenient. Chadchart has welcomed official reviews and rejected accusations of wrongdoing, while polling indicates that the disputes have done little to weaken his position ahead of the June 28 election.</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:54:16 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Workers Begin Removing Trump's Name From Kennedy Center</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396658-workers-begin-removing-trumps-name-from-kennedy-center/?do=findComment&comment=20554034]]></link><description>Why not go one step further and  remove him from the USA???</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:53:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Single retired men</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396192-single-retired-men/?do=findComment&comment=20554033]]></link><description>Ask yourself this question now. Why would a major English school owner ask me to help teach his students, knowing I'm a native English speaker that's educated in the language? How does it feel to be wrong 100 % of the time? Phony what? I've shown you your mistakes every time yet you still won't acknowledge them. That's how a person never learns.

Blame Wall Street. They're the ones rigging the game, so to speak.   I own some TESLA and have made some money on it, and I think there's more to come. As for SPCX?  Wall Street is trying to capitalize on TESLA's magic.  But it's a very expensive stock and will almost surely trade lower once the lock-up periods end. At some point, SPCX will be added to the S&amp;P 500 and will have a disproportionate effect on anyone invested in that index, which is pretty much everyone, one way or another.  But until that happens this fall, it's party time on Wall Street!]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:53:25 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Why no British or Irish pubs outside of Sukhumvit?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396597-why-no-british-or-irish-pubs-outside-of-sukhumvit/?do=findComment&comment=20554031]]></link><description>I already answered that.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand said 87 of the 146 carriers attending the IATA Slot Conference expressed interest in operating services connected to the country. Proposed links include new flights involving Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai, with destinations such as London, Copenhagen, Helsinki, Melbourne, Cebu, Shanghai and Hangzhou. Riyadh Air, Virgin Atlantic, SkyUp Nistru and AirBorneo were among the new carriers allocated slots for Thailand. Officials believe the additional connections could strengthen tourism, trade and investment while supporting Thailand&#x2019;s ambition to become a larger regional aviation hub.</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:51:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Should Attribution Be Required?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396603-should-attribution-be-required/?do=findComment&comment=20554026]]></link><description>Spot on!

Customs officers noticed irregularities in the luggage while she was at the oversized baggage counter in the international terminal on June 11. A detailed inspection reportedly uncovered packages of white powder wrapped in black tape and concealed inside seven bags of dog and cat food. Officers also seized a mobile phone and foreign SIM card before transferring the suspect to Sakhu Police Station. She now faces charges relating to heroin possession, attempted international smuggling and violations of Thailand&#x2019;s customs laws.</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:51:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Phuket Rider Accused of Demanding Payment to Return Lost Phone</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396767-phuket-rider-accused-of-demanding-payment-to-return-lost-phone/?do=findComment&comment=20554021]]></link><description>A Phuket rider has faced online criticism after allegedly demanding 5,000 baht before returning a mobile phone lost by a foreign tourist. An audio recording reportedly captured the rider negotiating with a Thai representative assisting the phone&#x2019;s owner. The requested amount was reduced first to 2,000 baht and later to 1,500 baht during the conversation. The rider maintained that he had not stolen the device and said he wanted compensation for fuel and the effort required to return it. Social media users largely agreed that reasonable travel expenses could be offered voluntarily but objected to money being imposed as a condition for recovering lost property.</description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2026 06:50:21 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Single retired men</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396192-single-retired-men/?do=findComment&comment=20554020]]></link><description>68 years?
