Worst Joke Ever 2024
A husband and wife who work for the circus go to an adoption agency looking to adopt a child, but the social workers there raise doubts about their suitability. So the couple produces photos of their 50-foot motor home, which is clean and well maintained and equipped with a beautiful nursery. The social workers are satisfied by this but then raise concerns about the kind of education a child would receive while in the couple’s care. The husband puts their mind at ease, saying, “We’ve arranged for a full-time tutor who will teach the child all the usual subjects along with French, Mandarin, and computer skills.” The social workers express concern about the child being raised in a circus environment. This time the wife explains, “Our nanny is a certified expert in pediatric care, welfare, and diet.” The social workers are finally satisfied and ask the couple, “What age child are you hoping to adopt?” The husband says, “It doesn’t really matter, as long as the kid fits in the cannon.” -

Thailand: Where white LOSERS that can’t get LAID go
Yes, there's truth in what you're saying (what she's saying), but there are plenty of men this is not the case. If a man is really not attractive he's not going to pull and attractive foreign partner. It's very possible what she's seeing is men with rentals. Contrary, I believe that many men seek women that are basically of their wall to attractiveness. I constantly see men that I think could do a bit better in Thailand ironically I'm sure she'd rethink that if she had a pathetic loser buying her that holiday, paying her flat ... She's young and attractive. For the moment she's got the world on a string. Fast forward a mere ten years and she will have far, far less appeal as her body falls apart. Seriously doubt she'd be recording that at 35 not 25. There was a woman on TikTok a Singapore expat she said visiting / living (unclear). She was really desperate for a relationship. She'd get on TikTok and give updates to her dating situation. This woman might have been attractive at say under 20. She wasn't an ogre but had lost her looks and gained weight. Her earlier clips she was sort of doing it advertising promotion for herself. The latter of the clips were her banging on about how she couldn't get a day. I recall at least one person standing her up. She got super cringy but we're still arrogant enough in her head that she deserve the best it was difficult to feel sorry for her. I wonder if she would say this about her father if he was single and in Thailand or brother? -

Thai Benefits vs Taxation.
Many members have said that if they have to pay income tax in Thailand, they want Thai benefits. I thought it might be interesting to look into that for a moment. It’s worth saying at the outset that most benefits in Thailand are a result of paying contributions into the Social Security Fund, not only paying income tax, just as pension benefits etc are a function of National Insurance contributions in the UK and of Social Security Payments in the US. The benefits most people seem to want are as follows: - membership of the 30 baht health scheme - equal pricing for entry to National Parks - general social security benefits Health Care The government run health system here can be very very good and there are some excellent medical staff within the system. But I will be very surprised if most foreigners would really want to be part of the 30 baht scheme or would even use it, because it typically involves a number of negatives aspects initially although it can eventually evolve into good quality medical care. Those negatives include: - long waits for treatment - treatment by junior or poorly skilled doctors - no of choice of doctor - medical staff with little or no English language proficiency - lack of choice of treatment location - often low grade accommodation, food and facilities If foreign patients wanted good quality care, right now, and minimal language issues, in pleasant surroundings, the 30 baht scheme would not be a good option, in most areas. Those things said, it is a cost effective system. National Parks Entry Fee National Park entry fee dual pricing is a government policy rather than a subsided benefit, achieving parity in this area requires a change in policy that will probably never happen since it applies to visitors, and residents. General Social Security Unemployment and Retirement benefits here are not great by Western standards, unless you’ve paid into the Social Security fund for most of your working life, in which case, the SSc health insurance benefit is worthwhile. I think retirement benefits amount to only a couple of thousand a month at best. I’m sure there are other benefits people want so it will be interesting to hear what they are. -
