Eve, especially, has a lot to answer for. There are important things in life: Air Water Food Family Friends Gold. The rest is just luxury; and we can do without it. https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.html Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a motivational theory in psychology comprising a five-tier model of human needs, often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid. Needs lower down in the hierarchy must be satisfied before individuals can attend to needs higher up. From the bottom of the hierarchy upwards, the needs are: physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learned that "democracy" is a sham. Actually I didn't learn that as I thought that anyway. All that happened is that my suspicions were confirmed. What I did learn is that in a crisis I'm on my own. You should be comfortable with this, didn't you do several spells in the Antarctic?

Logosone Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) I learned official numbers from Asia are false with no attempt to get to the actual numbers. Right across the board, Japan, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos. The only possible exceptions are South Korea and Singapore. But generally you can't trust numbers out of Asia.

Rancid Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I've learned that the movie V for Victory, apart from being entertaining, was also socially correct. Governments can utilize fear to herd the masses to agree to anything against their own benefit, if they promise to keep them safe. Few of us still think for ourselves, we instead lazily download our opinions from paid shills. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coop people that dislike each other up together and the bad feelings will come out, which is why divorce lawyers are lovin' the lockdown. Down there one didn't have the opportunity to have one's own space unless going for a long walk outside. Looking back it was perhaps surprising that there was no physical violence, but that was perhaps more down to luck than good behaviour. It's different with lockdown and enforced separation, but I've never found it a problem being on my own anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am quite happy to be on my own, in fact, under normal circumstances I go looking for it. My wife is the opposite though, so for her sake I hope I can get home soon. Right now I'm confined with 30 others onboard and there is no escape !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Learnt' is correct British English for the past simple tense of 'learn', just as 'burnt' is the correct form of 'burn'. I digress - this isn't a grammar thread ???? I was 16 when Beatles album Rubber Soul came out & "I'm Looking Through You" tune had lines "The only difference I've learnt the game"gave me an "eh?" moment (being a yank). Looked it up & thought, okay, why not? I've learnt of many more variations since then, including owner's manual for MGB.

Villages grow own food share together will survive more than city areas. Many city, Chiang mai, Pattaya, Bangkok etc people people join the line free food. Ranong no problem. Grow food, share the neighborhood together. And durian cheap now because no tourist! Anyone remember Psycho?.

phantomfiddler Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I have learned, with great sadness, that it clearly obvious that mass populations can be easily controlled with the threat of jail sentences of hefty fines for non-compliance.

The other thing I have learnt is, not so much about the amount of money you save, to me it's about the amount of money I've wasted paying for overpriced junk food the restaurants here are getting more expensive than in England Im sure it's made more people think who live here about the amount of money they spend Ivelearntthatpunctuationmakesreadingmucheadier.......

That i do not need social interaction and not worried in the slightest if i was the last person on the planet. Good for you. You will grow your own rice and wheat. Catch your own fish, gut, skin or scale and cook them. You'll raise your own chickens, pigs and/or beef animals and prepare them. If you hunt, same thing. All the while watching for the elephants, tigers, dogs, crocodiles, snakes and whatever other predator is out there to kill you. Good plan! The world needs to go back to work. Now!!
