Aren't you embarrassed to live in Pattaya

One thing you need to worry about -- no matter where you live in the world -- is being trapped in an infinite loop where every day repeats itself endlessly.

Just watched that again with my daughter. She understood it pretty quick and loved it.

    Nope, love living here.

    I’m more curious where you live that’s so flawless. A utopia, is it? No drunks, no dodgy headlines, no locals behaving badly… just everyone sipping herbal tea and filing their taxes early?

    Why do you have such a compulsion to post dispiriting content on this forum. That’s the question you should be asking.

The good thing is people can get a Phd in psychology following this thread.

If they did not already have a Ph.D. they would need one or a psychiatrist if any non-contributor has forced itself to read such a load of drivel.

Oh, the irony 🤔 😂

And you do not catch it yourself 👏

Copying me again dear @Hummin ? 😊 Imitation being the most sincere form of flattery... The difference being that it is real in this case 😊

I challenge you to demonstrate your theory. I challenged the outright hypocrisy of your bird of a feather. Him being unable to bear the evidence being there for all to see.

I don't have that issue, you can present your evidence and I will be happy to discuss it with you.

Your style of discussion brings to mind the metaphor of a pigeon appearing to play chess.

It knocks over the pieces(your traditional method of leaving a discussion with a "Have a good evening", as if the discussion is not worthy of your time), defecates on the board(posting wild nonsense with no evidence to back it up) and then strutting around as if it won(you congratulating yourself with clapping emojis)

You seem very confident in yourself, which is amusing to me.

Again, you haven't quite caught up. I arrived home at 4am and went to bed at 6am. Do you see how one can create a scenario and then present it as a fait accompli to oneself? I was happy to let you run with it and to continue to make a fool of yourself.

I prefer to observe and discuss before commenting. So everything you see me discussing here is after years of observation.

Have you ever been screened for bipolarity ? Asking for a friend

Years of observing what?

Pigeons playing chess?

Yes, I told you about my psychological evaluation before going to grammar school. How about yourself and your friend?

I guess bipolarity for you is the ability to have a fierce debate on one subject, whilst being in agreement on another. You are not capable of that, you keep a grudge going. Hence your 'catty' remarks on two different threads that started this all off.

Because you cannot control your mind, you imagine me agreeing or supporting you is some kind of mind trick.

You don't see your constant paranoia as an issue.

The whole thing just goes over your head. So you try to bring the whole conversation down to your level of one line quips and attempted insults. No point in anyone hoping for you to do better...

What else can he do? Abandon her? It's his daughter and his duty. Normal, no? Or is substandard the norm?

So why don’t you just say enough is enough and stop calling me out in every thread?

Do you miss my attention that much?

I stay away from you, you stay away from me. There is no need for this disgraceful pissing contest. Why is that so hard for you?

You call me paranoid, while at the same time admitting you have been collecting information for years through several different nicks. Then, when people finally push back, you blame everyone else.

All this bickering is the result of your own actions, not mine.

When I say it is stupid and pointless, you continue to attack anyway. You keep coming back for more, even though nobody wins from this. It only makes both of us look bad, and you do not seem to understand that.

How far are you willing to take it?

I am a grown man. You are still behaving like a little boy unless you can admit that you could also have handled this differently.

I know I could have behaved differently.

But do you know that about yourself?

I'm not embarrassed that I no longer live in Pattaya, and I'm not embarrassed that I don't live in this thread.

Dear @Hummin Thanks for you long letter, but you failed to mention that this whole dialogue started with your unprovoked 'catty' remarks this morning. Do you really lack self awareness to that extent?

Of course you did it because you hold a grudge and when you get the opportunity....

In fact you know that I suggested this solution via PM some time ago, but you cannot help yourself.

Either way, that time has passed. When I merely mentioned that some people see violence as a solution, you saw yourself in that and went mad. This is the reason for your continued actions. You cannot admit that you were wrong for reacting in that manner, you need to push the blame on to someone else. Until you learn to control yourself, it will be on repeat. Up to you. You cannot blame others for your actions.

I allow people to say whatever they want about me. I don't imagine fighting with nor trying to intimidate them. I don't try to get them removed and then gloat about it and I don't need to try to frame them as crazy because your attempts at removal failed. Take care of your behaviour. I'll take care of mine 😊

You want to win. I don't care about winning. The truth sets me free. You are trapped in your own...

It's has a bit more depth than talking about the price of hiring company. Off you go then 😊

As long as you are happy or at the very least, content. Don't hate your home town, just appreciate you have a choice.

What a pointless and asinine post!

Have you bothered to look at the tile of the OP?

If you small bunch of head butters want to argue I suggest you go and start a new thread about who said what to who and what the replies meant etc etc.

Can I also suggest that you but out and let this topic get back onto its original topic!

You seem angry. Why didn't you just post something on-topic and leave others to follow? Instead we just see your usual style of rage posting.

I see you are still off topic but stating that I should post on topic.

I would try to if you would only do as I suggested earlier and have your 3/4 cornered arguments in your own little forum and please drop your responses and allow the topic to revert to it original point!

PS; I do not believe that I have been "angry" in either my previous post or this one.

PPS; Please do not reply but go and create your own angry/argumentative forum elsewhere!

On-topic @scottiejohn? Try on-topic and stop your incessant raging and insults. Have you been drinking again?

Lead by example...or just zip it.

Certainly not the country it was back then...it's a real shame that it was all given away by politicians with zero foresight, who wouldn't listen..........nothing we can do about it, it has been going downhill for last 3 decades, just a slow gradual process..................Reflecting, I consider myself lucky to have enjoyed the heydays, and also grateful to be able to choose where I might wanna lay my hat...........
