Trump Fires Back at ‘Lowlife’ John Kelly After Damaging Remarks

[wornoutcowboy]

Why are so many people wearing black today? I was on the BTS and about 70 percent of the people were in black. I tried googling it but got no answer. What's up?

[G_Money]

Maybe everything else is in the laundry bin.

Okay, but why would they be wearing black today specifically? It isn't his birthday or anniversary of his death.

Why implies there is some logic involved.

There isn't!

And because there is no logic you won't find any logic.

Conclusion: Don't try to find something that isn't there. After you understand this concept live becomes so much easier in Thailand.

Come to Pattaya.  Lots of fat alcoholic losers walking around in yellow and orange Singha tank tops with biege cargo pants.

My girlfriend says it could be to commemorate King No 5 who died on the 23rd October 1910. She said could be still a day later. She says many had a holiday yesterday so today they wear black when back at work.

Black is a colour that gets dirty very fast on clothes or on the car if a black car.

Good question. Start a survey. 

Ask them and tell us the result.

Extremely important 🤗

Quite right. These dates in the Thai calendar are to respect the passing of past kings: Chulalongkorn (Rama 5) and Bhumipol (Rama 9) so there is logic if you know something about the country you are living in!! 

[Thingamabob]

I remember about 40 years ago in Taiwan black became popular for no particular reason other than fashion.
