Well yes plus school shootings, gangsters, racism, high cost of living.

Edit - Only the US Masters, New Orleans and Kentucky Derby interest me. The rest I could skip.

Thailand - nothing special but fun and cheap. Lovely people. I don't like white people.

Then why come to this forum, as you sound like two others who detest foreigners, even though they are one. By the way, yes, the US does have a problem with shootings, but Thailand alone is slowly catching up with serial killings, school and mall shootings, gangsters, human trafficking and other crimes, and it will only get worse as the corruption is huge, along with the lack of enforcement, which the US does have, even though some judges are broken.

I have not ever seen you prove anyone wrong here. You even still cling to the delusion that you proved NY Pizza was a healthy foodstuff.

You, in fact, are the original Rain Man of this board. Talk about lack of self awareness...

When I went to New York and had a pizza slice I was pretty disappointed. Seemed very flat and unhealthy and not yummy at all. Australia does a good pizza.

You can get crappy pizza anywhere, which is why it's best, while you're traveling, to sample a bunch of places, as quality anywhere goes from crapola to excellent.I lived in the NYC area 62 years, and yes, I've had blase pizza, but I've also had many that were top of the line.

It's not a US board and what has detesting foreigners to do with anything? It's ASEAN, remember?

You are the one criticising Thailand here. So...leave. Stop procrastinating.

Why not name these ''top of the line' places at which you actually ate? Then we can try for ourselves when in town. Thank you.

You see, it always comes back with the same exact ploy. Always proven him wrong, so the deflections begin once again. I provide links from established unbiased places that say pizza is healthy, but in his limited mind and irrational thoughts, he can't decipher the truth from an opinion, so it again comes back with the same exact retorts, once again proving himself wrong.

Also again answers for someone else, or "we", that I detest Thailand, when I've never said that. I detest things here as everyone does, as I detest things everywhere I've been, which everyone also does, but he can't let that enter those thought processes, as it still comes out the same way. False statements, assumptions, deflections, lies and exaggerations. I post facts, he posts opinions, and by his record here, I feel no one's missing this point.

Yes I did, and she is, even though she's older now. Everyone fades, but look at her in her prime. As good as any woman alive, which is why she's always ranked so high on most beautiful women worldwide.

Pizza is not that healthy at all unless you choose a premium one thin crust. A thick pan one is 90% bread! Bread is a 2nd rate food.

Not a fan of steps, but I'll take them, 1 or 2 floors instead of waiting for the elevator. Can't believe people at that damn lazy, and explain a lot of them pear shaped folks waddling around.

Coming from this LPOS, that says a lot.

Saw Doyle's vid, and agree, been there, Betong, and lovely countryside, and decent city. May pop back down there again, as didn't spend as much time as needed to do it justice.

Hobble further 😃 This I understand

I never said all pizza is healthy. When it's made properly, as hundreds of restaurants in just New Jersey does, it is a healthy choice. Loaded with sausage, extra cheese, beef or pork and you're adding those extra calories. Look at most any meat and cheese dish you can buy. If you eat too much of them, even though they're also a healthy choice, you're packing on the extra calories that are very hard to burn off, even if you're young.

Bread is a healthy food also if you choose healthy bread. Homemade or made with healthy ingredients and bought at a whole foods or other health oriented market. Another link......https://www.menshealth.com/nutrition/a26149219/is-pizza-healthy/.

No, you did not. Your links simply stated that you can make them healthier by substituting ingredients. Are you really this obtuse? The sad thing is that it seems that you really are. Poor kid.

New York-style pizza has more ingredients than a traditional Neapolitan pizza. Sugar and olive oil are usually added to high-gluten bread flour, yeast, and water to create the dough, which is hand-tossed. Some people say the unique flavor and texture of the crust occurs because of the minerals that are only found in NYC’s tap water.

The heavily-seasoned cooked tomato sauce is typically made of olive oil, canned tomatoes, garlic, sugar, salt, and herbs like oregano, basil, and crushed red pepper, as opposed to the simple Neapolitan sauce, made from uncooked crushed tomatoes and salt.

The cheese is always grated low-moisture mozzarella, not the fresh slices you'll find on Neapolitan-style pizza"

Food isn't bad for us unless we east junk food, especially all the time. There is a lot of delicious healthy and somewhat healthy food out there, as it's all I've ever eaten besides the occasional junk food. Try Texas BBQ, New York style pizza, Shrimp Scampi, Lasagne (homemade), Australian, Texas, or a myriad of other cheeseburgers, Broiled Swordfish, and a host of others who might have some extra calories but are still healthy food.

Sadly a supposed adult cannot comprehend easy literature. It actually thinks I'm blue in the face when all I did was post links from a reputable source that pizza can be healthy. This is the same argument that started his trolling of me since he was NowNow.

Banned in that username, he adopted another alias, Centigrade, which was also banned for the same behavior, seeing the mods soon figured him out also.

Then he switches to NextG, where I again prove him wrong about other subjects, and he adopts another personality, where he again attacks me, thinking I was lying when I posted facts about my relationships.

I show that he's a cheapskate and cheater of his supposed 11 year relationship with a foreign woman here, in the next alter ego, BatteringRam, and he's again thrown out the window for his obsessive trolling. Waits a little while more, and comes back as JakeC, acting exactly the same, again trolling not only me but attacking many others here, until that username runs away or is banned.

I study nutrition and have lived a healthy, lean lifestyle for 50 years, and I'm wrong when I point out facts that all those websites say, that pizza can be a "healthy" food addition, and he tries to deflect, saying it's only a healthier food, when experts in the field say, once again, healthy, which it is.

Obviously has a very limited amount of nutrition knowledge,arguing with someone who's made it his life for decades. This will be my last statement once again proving him wrong, so expect a few replies back of the same old crapola and insults, as that's the way he rolls. You can also see by his last retort to me, that his comprehension skills are lacking.

Where, within that rant, have you proved that NY Pizza is healthy? 😊

Your exact words...

Some people are highly gluten intolerant, but we are all gluten intolerant to some degree.

Too much white flour probably contributes to colon cancer. It harms the gut. It has high glycemic load. And carbs in general are not a good idea especially over 50 as we all become more and more insulin resistant over time.

And mixing white flour with water probably creates glue in the body. It probably takes the body 10 days to digest that pizza, if ever.

Pizza, due to all that white flour, is one of the worst things you can put in the body.

But since people cannot give up their addictions, they will find reasons to claim it's healthy or reasonably healthy.

If you must eat carbs, white rice and potatoes are much better options, in my opinion. But still carbs are not ideal, so keep it low.

White rice and pizza base are both high gi foods. Pizza base has more protein. White rice is junk food imo.

If someone has to travel for women or companionship, I don't think it has anything to do with who, or whatever they're searching for. They need to look in the mirror, or at least make better choices.

Look at the links I provided. I don't put anything in my body that isn't healthy. haven't cheated in 50 years besides the occasional piece of chocolate. Nothing else. There are many other links also. Some people are intolerant to certain foods, so they should eliminate or limit them from their diet. Sadly, looking at the problem the world has with obesity and diseases brought on by eating too much of the wrong things, most don't listen. By the way, I've never seen you as a troll, but a decent poster, and it's just him and a couple of others that act that part.
