Or do you tell me when you go shopping your chance of getting close to people isn't the same as when paying by QR code with the phone , only then you are inside a building(shop) ,so stop the drama Mikey you can't win this one . I have a new expensive mobile, sure, it works at a bit over half a meter if the other person has a good mobile too and screen is at maximum but no more than 30 centimeters in a non optimum scenario. Guess what phones poor Street sellers and delivery guys use, the best ones? I of course use the lower number as my measure.

Popular Post Stargeezr Posted July 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2021 In the rest of the world you can drink alcohol any time you want. In Thailand though, it seems that after 9PM alcohol will cause COVID, so the very smart government is just trying to save you from yourself and will not allow you to have any in restaurants after 9PM. That is called Thai intelligence. Right? Geezer 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The government's argument is that people act irresponsibly when they drink in groups. 30 people without masks drinking in a small bar with the doors/shutters closed supports this assumption. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And would prefer not to live the rest of their lives in a state of constant fear locked in their homes. That is exactly the attitude that is being highlighted here in this thread. The self-entitlement, me, me, me selfishly arrogant thinking process and the mindset, 'that you can do just what you want to do'. You are not a medical expert. This is just your blindly ignorant, narrow perspective on a global pandemic. You, obviously, are far too important and 'knowledgeable' to have to obey the laws of your host country. Furthermore, most of us here are not living in a constant state of fear, locked up in our own homes. Most of us accept the letter of the law. This is Thailand. Not the UK, where you appear to originate from. Just another example of your downright selfish, arrogant beliefs! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Hundreds of people all over the world and until now not one of those have become seriously sick or even worse, died of Covid 19. At the other hand though I could fill a full DIN A4 with names of people, friends, family and people I knew that got sick and/or dies with cancer. Me to! Woke people have no sense of risk or perspective. They only live in fear of the things their overlords instruct them to fear. And are desperate to silence those who don't share their irrational fears. Edited July 20, 2021 by BritManToo 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because in pandemics, those who don't extend the pain for everybody else. But as you said yourself, "Why should I care if someone I don't know lives or dies?" Why don't you show what you wrote to your son and ask him if he's proud of his daddy. Maybe he can teach you something. Just a gentle suggestion.

No, not any comprehension difficulties at all. Just one question. Does it make the foreigners look better just because there were Thais involved? I guess you no the answer to that question. You probably also know that I can only feel ashamed for my own race and their behavior. That it was Thais involved is nothing surprising to me. As a result I can´t care less about how they behave, as long we keep clean under our rug. How Thais behave does not affect how they look at us. How we behave does! You should always remember who´s country you reside in and how bad reputation is going to affect you and your life in that country. Therefore, we do not need brainless farts like this representing us. Edited July 21, 2021 by Gottfrid 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few reasons why we are not guests here, IMO, the main one being retirees having to do 90 day reports. That is treating us like criminals, certainly not guests. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
