dastakantattaka Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Explain me the point of measuring the temperature. * If a person is infected, the virus may be in the incubation perion - 14 days, or some say up to 21 days, hence the temperature will be normal. * Or a person may not exhibit any symptoms at all, even if they're ill and 14-21 days have passed. * Or only mild ones. * Or a person may be ill with something else. Outcome: next to no point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Well, explains possibly, why they wanted to take my temperature and spatting this terrible gel stuff on me on my way LEAVING the store ......... Thailand is in total overdrive. Apart from all this, they put up white pipe frames with some plastic foil, huge canvasses. Some of them get blown off the shelf/counter and those who remain make sure, that either the staff or the customer talks at the side of those panels as you cannot understand the mumbling with the face mask and a bouncing plastic sheet. Congratulations - a really new way of going through an, arguably highly contagious, influenza ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been pepper sprayed and CS Gas’d as part of my military training, getting some sanitizer in the eye is NOTHING. She’s being dramatic, it maybe stings for a moment and then evaporates. It’s like getting some citrus in your eye, it stings for a moment and then it’s gone. ok Rambo. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's nothing compared to my Aunt Mary's SAS tales. She was in the SAS and dropped behind enemy lines by parachute. She had a machine gun, knife and a canteen of whiskey. On her way down she was ambushed by 30 soldiers. As bullets whizzed all around her, she didn't think she'd make it, so drank the canteen of whiskey. She landed, lifted her machine gun and shot 23 enemy before running out of ammunition. She then killed another 5 with her knife before it broke. She killed the last 2 in hand to hand combat. The moral of the tale; Don't f¬¬¬ with my Aunty Mary when she's had a drink! Edited May 16, 2020 by Tanoshi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightly Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 This reminds me of a scene in some silly movie I saw... An asthmatic assassin is ready to do in his target.

SupermarineS6B Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Went in the 7/11 this morning, the kid virtually stuck the gun to my temple like he was gonna off me then came out with the unbelievable result of 37.5 ! No no sunshine, stand back and try again, 35.5...... Jesus i thought i was going to get a million press ups then marched off to the gulag....... What do you expect, you only need a degree to work in the 7, for actual intelligence you need a masters......or something approaching the Thai version of Tesla........ Sorry for the lady, that hurts....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ventenio Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I tell them, "TWO METERS!!!!!!" none of this stuff matters, EXCEPT maybe it will prevent people going out when they have a fever, which I guess would help if i believed they would stay home. a few times they see me, the farang, and they don't even want to approach me. so i speak thai and i get my prostate checked... wait... what???

No, proper imitation of American hiphop cretins is about 45º sideways. Backwards is so 1940s. I'm American by the way, but guess what, I'm here.

Earlier today when I went to a 7/11 the guy was just inside to the right and out of sight as you enter. Appeared out of nowhere far right of my vision and I thought I was going to be shot in the head for a moment. Well. That would certainly end any virus threat you represented. ????

Greg O Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Really folks, an easy mistake to spray cleanser in someone's eyes ? Too much time on the "smart" phone. There's no excuse and the whole silly regimen accomplishes nothing. Looks to me like the lady was going straight to the weenies anyway. As for me I walk in and fake a sneeze (kind of test to see if they're still breathing) Most of em can't break loose from their stupid smart phones....Maybe there's an App for that ...hehe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psimbo Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I feel sorry for both of them. Blink reaction would have negated most of the effect and the poor girl who's momentary lapse caused it must be quite upset over it. She must be devastated as well over 8 pages of comment devoted to her that she will never see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandsomeTallFarang Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Lmao, even if your qualification is a photoshop editor, you need to go through a basic training course where you’re going to experience bad things, one of which is being in a crowded room and breathe in riot-control substances like pepper spray and gas grenade fumes. I never claimed to be a badass spec ops, I’m just saying that a bit of sanitizer in the eyeball is nothing to cry about it. It’s no worse than a squirt of lemon.
