  1. These spurious comments from various sources in news stories are just too common to be “Lost in Translation” remarks, if my 2 Bother in Laws are anything to go by this is the type of thing your average Thai would say.
  2. You couldn’t make it up, 500 cops 1/2 Million USD spent and one dog arrested.
  3. Just make sure you are back tucked up in bed after the New Year celebrations, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him leading the countdown at Central World.
  4. Good on the Guardian to referring to Trump as “The Former Apprentice Host” and not “Mr President as many ass licking publications seem to do.
  5. No chance, he is “One if Theirs” they will shut up shop to protect their own, this is how nepotism and juntas operate. Senate Block Arrest
  6. Do you see the connections with a Cult or Religion? The only difference between those two is Cults are secretive where as religion is in the open.
  7. Typical of “The Regime” use outdated laws to suppress the opposition. She stated a well known fact that the Government response to Covid-19 and subsequent purchase of AZ vaccines was inadequate at the least. AZ Thailand is owned by Siam Biotech of which the King is the majority shareholder, so now one cannot talk about a company failing to keep its promises just because the King owns shares in them, this was not a Lese Majeste offense, it was merely pointing out the shortcomings of a company. As for re-x ing a photo, WTF, she never made the comments, they were on a banner in a photograph. If that is the metric for applying article 112 then we are doomed. All media publications carried similar photos showing anti monarchy messages, why isn’t Pinocchio being charged with Lese Majeste, after all as Prime Minister he was in charged of government controlled TV which did worse than posting photos they showed videos.
  8. The beauty of the sponsors of board is that some Board Members are the sponsors, no external entities to “keep happy” Unfortunately some board members have passed away, and the rest of us are defying medical science and hanging in there
  9. Not to “Work up to” I just thought I would post one of my many atheist memes in this thread instead on “Any New Jokes”
  10. I think the Board software has changes half a dozen times in that time
  11. Yes it does, click on a persons name and then “Personal Message” option, to Read / Continue a message click on Envelope Icon next to user name in Too Right of Screen
  12. MPIH “Destination Fucked” is his catchphrase, well over 850videos posted past 10 years every one as funny as the last. Ozzy Man
  13. Not sure about that, I first found his channel in 2015 when it was about a year old, I was working with a bloke from Perth who introduced me.
  14. Destination Fucked, many of his videos have ended up there over the years. You can shove Mr Beast, PewDiePie et all in ya pipe and smoke em, not a patch on Ozzy Man. (And I don’t even need subtitles)
  15. I thought you would have posted Ozzy Man’s version, slightly more entertaining
  16. Joking aside there is the formal and informal meaning of news, the formal one being as previously defined, basically formal reports of events considered likely to be significant to the target audience which are normally broadcast or published soon after information about them becomes available. The informal meaning appertains to something one is hearing for the first time : something one did not previously know, as in “That’s News to Me” Formal news one would expect to be broadcast or published as in Post Legend Dies, where as Informal news, such as an individual finding out hypothetically that “Post Legend Dies” three years after the event would not be worthy of publication, no matter how much Bubi thinks they should be 🙃. IMHO the “NEWS” forum of the board should be reserved for the Formal types of News where as Informal news / Today I found out type announcements are more suited to General Discussion or Board Bar. But hey, I’m not a moderator / don’t make the rules so hat I say and think doesn’t really matter, I just like going on a rant and talking shit every so often practicing for my grumpy old man badge.
  17. My analysis would be that you are showing signs of dementia since you posted on the Thread about his passing back in October 2020
  18. It all depends on how the recipient has set up his account, there is an option for email, sms etc notification but it needs to be set up. How the account is configured is not viable to other users. FB Notifications
  19. But adding a “G” would make a decent acronym It would be adding an “E” Enroll to Go Fund Me F.E.A.S.T.
  20. This may help The first step to understanding whether or not your message has been read is to become familiar with the Facebook message read receipts. These little icons appear next to a message in your conversation thread to let you know its status. There are three possible statuses: Sent, Delivered, and Read. Link
  21. The reason I did not say “A Few Days” is because that would have opened another can of worms, i.e. how many is a few. I was taught 2-3 A Couple of days 4-6 A Few Days 7-14 Several Days Or maybe I wasn’t taught and it is just what I think, teachers wore capes, carried canes and tried to teach me Latin when I was last at school.
