Hi, > Does anybody know about the secret that keeps numbers ridiculously low in the kingdom? Som tam. Sanuk!

Hi, >One positive is the far fewer drunk driving deaths. And that probably more than offsets the number of people dying from Covid-19 in Thailand. Sanuk!

Hi, >So what is the end game here? Interesting question and I would not be surprised to find out that the majority of governments have no idea what it is. Keeping a lockdown as is in place now for 6-12 months is not really an option as it would destroy the economy (even further) and could easily cost as much or more lives as the pandemic. Alternatively, loosening the restrictions too early could easily result in another spike of cases. Luckily we have brilliant minds in the government to deal with this problem 🤣 Or, in other words, we are likely fucked 😟 Sanuk!

Hi, >Would you consider zero sugar cola ? No, don't like that stuff at all. I'm also not sure it is actually better for you. Sanuk!

Hi, >I'm addicted to sugar. Same. I did manage to all but stop drinking Coke/Pepsi though. Lost ~4kg in 2 months. Sanuk!

Hi, I guess the main difference in my diet is that I'm ordering out more Haven't left the house in 3 weeks. Playing games on my PS4 a lot. No exercise at all. Sanuk!

Hi, Thanks, guys, but it is not me paying for the upkeep of the server, it's Jigger. I'll point him to this thread. Sanuk!

HI, For fuck's sake. I can't even quarantine myself in peace without some wanker taking pictures Sanuk!

Hi, I fail to see what use a curfew like this has. How many people would be moving about during those hours, especially since all nightlife has already been shut down? Sanuk!

Hi, "part of its network of commercial ventures" Why the hell does the military have commercial ventures? Is that common in other countries as well? Sanuk!

Hi, Interesting to see that protesting is also illegal, although considering the origin of this government maybe not that surprising Sanuk!

Hi, > Michigan will allow large gatherings for churches. Governor cites separation of Church and State. Maybe some good will come of this after all BTW, working from home since mid last week. Have aircon on in my home office. The dog - and my wife! - are now asleep on the floor in the office Sanuk!

Hi, I road the subway during rush hour until Wednesday. Noticed it being marginally more quiet in the morning, but considerably more quiet in the evening. And almost nobody using the ticket machines. Most of the tourists are gone, leaving just residents / regular travelers. Sanuk!

Hi, > Army to disinfect Bangkok roads nightly I can't imagine this having any real impact. Sanuk!

Hi, Those location maps are useless. It just shows where the person was found (I assume), but not where they spent time in the previous week. They also can give a false sense of security if there are no *known* cases in a certain area. At work the decision was made on Monday that everyone who can should work from home, at least for the next 2 weeks. Totally fine by me, as it saves me ~2hrs in travel time every day. Sanuk!

Hi, Yeah, that is the Thai way of fighting. Only fight if you are in the majority. Cowards. Sanuk!

Hi, "Do the students realise how much they are playing with fire?" What is the alternative? Let the corruption in the government continue? It was quite obvious that the election was a total farce, and the disbanding of the party (and the timing of it), was awfully convenient for the ruling party / PM. Sanuk!

Hi, Yeah, one thread about US politics is enough. (Too much? ) Sanuki!

Hi, > one of the highest rates of gun ownership in the world I have heard this before as well, and like you, don't know anyone who owns or claims to own a gun. Maybe they include the 'hunting rifles' people upcountry use? Sanuk!

HI, " Voters had a wide array of parties and candidates from which to choose " Yes, but the election was rigged so that only one candidate was allowed to win. Sanuk!

Hi, He's been caught. Sanuk!

Hi, My wife mentioned this last night. Had not seen the clip yet. Utterly brutal and pointless killing for probably not more than a few thousand $. This will almost certainly result in a death penalty when they catch him. And they will. Thai cops can be pretty useless, but if they really want to get someone they can also be very effective. Sanuk!

Hi, And of course China doesn't give a fuck. Sanuk!

Hi, > Our board member, Waerth (Walter) fell and broke his hip. Not the hip actually, the round knob at the top of his femur. He's got a titanium screw in it now and is healing well. Still in hospital. Sanuk!

Hi, Anything to get the winning lottery numbers. Sanuk!
