Morons involved certainly, of whatever kind.

I don't think that generic racist slurs on the Thai population actually help an understanding of the situation.

You get the same thing regardless of which side you vote for in the UK, so what qualifies The Ecomomist to judge Thailand or anywhere else's democratic credentials?

how do you think the politics in the UK justify or mitigate the situation in Thailand?

The war is going great

1tooth · March 6Mar 6

Washington and Tel Aviv now claim they’re “lowering the intensity” of their strikes so they can keep attacking longer. Spare us this bull<deleted>. Iran has been throwing waves of cheap drones and missiles precisely to exhaust US and Israeli weapons stockpiles,and it’s painfully obvious that strategy is working. And there is more: Russia and China are providing targeting data to allow Iran to successful destroy American assets. Is it working? Let’s see: The American satellite imaging

Dutch Jews Come Under Attack; Two Incidents in Two Days

Two separate Jewish institutions have come under bomb or arson attack in the Netherlands. Luckily, no one was injured.

I attribute that to the hate such people have for Judeo Christian morality.

Nations are now openly mocking america. Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said Monday that Germany would not take part militarily in the conflict. “What does Donald Trump expect from a handful of European frigates in the Strait of Hormuz that the mighty US navy cannot manage alone? This is the question I find myself asking,” he added.

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?
McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle replied to Kyoto Kyle's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

Today I bought one pack of each patty type from Makro and also picked up a bag of Bega Tasty grated cheddar cheese. It was 250 g for 139 Baht. Good value. Then I cooked one of the grass fed burgers and after the 2.5 minute flip I sprinkled a handful of the grated cheese on top with a dash of salt. After about 5 minutes it was nicely browned on both sides, though the middle was still a little undercooked for my taste. I did not want to put it back in the pan and risk burning the outside, so I put the plate in the microwave for about 30 seconds on medium heat. That finished it perfectly. It turned out to be a fantastic burger. I am really glad I did not go the McDonalds route. It was quick and easy to prepare as well. I skipped the bun and just ate it with a fork. Delicious! After finishing the burger there was still about a large tablespoon of juice or fat on the plate, so it definitely was not dry. I will probably try one of the wagyu ones a bit later, but the grass fed one was already just right for me. Next time I will probably cook it on a slightly lower heat and give it another 45 seconds on each side so the middle cooks a bit more without burning the outside. Thanks again for the tip!

I picked up something whilst in Pattaya a few weeks ago and still have it. Very nasty (and not a Wife, Kik or Mia Noi!). Runny eyes, coughing, sneezing, headache, a little fever and lots of nasal congestion. Coughing up phlegm still. Will be 3 weeks on Tuesday but feel like it's almost over. I rarely get sick (even first, of four, covid infections was no worse for me.

I am not going to address anyone directly because I do not want anyone to feel like a jilted lily, but I have noticed something interesting about my own forum reading habits. For one, I read far more than I post. Often I do not even log in to scan through a few topics, and if someone averages about a dozen posts a day, I tend to skip right over anything they write. It did not start that way. At first I just noticed certain posters who write extremely long posts waffling on about their personal

unblocktheplanet · Saturday at 09:17 AM2 days

Don’t make fun of anybody’s religion… they might be right! The Nation of Islam worldview was dominated by an apocalyptic and prophetic vision which held that the African American, the "original" or "Asiatic" black man, fell into a state of social domination that began with slavery.'1 This situation was a direct result of the machinations of an evil black scientist, Yakub, who grafted white people, also known as "devils," from original black people a little more than 6,000 years ago.

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · Friday at 10:31 PM2 days

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa
