Does your Thai wife keep you on a short leash?
Good comment. Two things come to my mind. Many of us lived for a long time "back home". Most people somehow behaved similar. Maybe a short holiday here and there. But we never learned that many people, all over the world, are different. Our perception how "everybody" thinks suddenly doesn't work anymore. Because in a country far away everybody thinks different. And about staying with one woman and accepting whatever happens: I also started to make that mistake. And then I was out and about and rediscovered that there are lots of attractive girls and women in this country who are interested in many of us. We don't have to accept the condition from one woman because we will never find a better one (like maybe back home). Here we have options. And if our beloved wife knows that we have other options, then that will help her to understand that she better be nice, or else. -

Harris Leads Trump by 6 Points Following Debate Performance
It never helps to insult the voters when trying to win. I don't think she was complacent- I think she was so arrogant that she never even considered that she would fail. Mind you, from a book I read, Trump didn't think he'd win, and wasn't expecting to, so surprises all round. -

Hillary Clinton Criticizes Elon Musk for Disturbing Comments About Taylor Swift
I gather the support of Taylor Swift cuts both ways. Some like her, some loathe her. -

Breaking up has always something to do with yourself. There are reasons for the girls to leave you behind, even you wouldn't like to admit. It's not the place to live but egoism, lack of love and inability for compromises. -

Teacher Barred After Smuggling Teenager to the UK as a "Slave"
Another one of your non sequiturs Jonny Once again I’ll ask you to produce evidence to your claim that I have blamed the rightwing, or indeed rightwing hate mongering for: “Immigrant trafficks and enslaves a child, gets convicted and then lies about the conviction to get a job working with children” Give it your best go. -

Democrats are only winning in the minds of people who get their opinions from someone else. Only when you unplug from the media noise can you live in reality- 1

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
@DavisH "EV's are supposed to be better right? So why settle for less?" _________________________________________________________ My reason, because they (BEV) perform better, and less expensive to operate & maintain. Best reason ... I don't support the monopoly of big oil, or have to go to the station to top up every week or 2 or 4, or ever, unless out of town. INDEPENDENCE IS BLISS -

Harris Leads Trump by 6 Points Following Debate Performance
I read that HRC was so convinced she won that her "victory" party started before the final result. I'd love to have been in that room when the news came out. -

Tariffs and how Trump is a socialist.
He has been lying about everything in his entire life. He never accepts any blame for any shortcoming and yet makes false claims on positive activity. And again, after giving big tax breaks to the rich when he was Prez, while they have reaped record profits, he is again promising big tax breaks for the rich. But, Biden has been no better for the average American that is for sure and KH will be even more under the control of the powerful puppetteers IMHO anyway. But, I am too old to even worry about it anymore. After 50+ years of voting, I learned it has been a wasted effort on my part. life seems to have gone to $%$^&& since I was old enough to vote and thought that I did so by studying the candidates - my mistake as I should have been looking at the puppetteers! Hope everyone else has a better life over the next 4 year term. -

Very true. The Democrats have hopefully learned from this. Clinton was far too complacent.- 1

Social Media Outrage as Tourists Blatantly Urinate on Pattaya Beach
It is us who is having the Pi$$ taken out of us ( yet again) Just think about it for a minute. I don't think there has been any outrage, certainly not on the scale implied by the headline, The article claims its all gone "viral " but it seems that in reality somebody who is a member of a "facebook group" simply posted it to the rest of the group I know little about social media but I would imagine that can be achieved by one person pressing one button on a keyboard There then followed a few comments from other members of the group which is only to be expected by the sort of people who join these groups, (for many its their reason for living) And then the alleged comments themselves . I don't think I have ever heard or read the actual phrase " ruin Pattayas reputation as a world class family resort" anywhwere except on this forum or from the Pattaya mail. I have never met anybody Thai or western who considers it to have the reputation of "a world class family resort" or who fears for that reputation. Stories about foreigners behaving badly generate a lot of activity on this forum, the mere mention of the phrase " social media outrage" is like a battle cry to the more sanctimonious types on this forum, who obediently rush to their keyboards some desperately virtue signalling , with the usual, tired, and predictable "quality tourist" type remarks, or calling for deportation or worse Whilst others will enthusiastically take the opportunity, in the abscence of any information, to place the blame at which ever nationality, currently trending, they think they can blame without appearing racist. British or Russian are always safe options when caucasians are involved. In this headline, like many others of a similar nature, the phrase "social media outrage" is not a report about what has taken place, but a prediction of the reaction about to happen on this forum
