Could be like in other parts of the world, the belief that noise drives away evil spirits.
But you're right, it happens even in peacetime, the louder the better. I often hear Thais arguing, and on second glance turns out they're just happy faces chatting. And the TV, don't get me started on the TV! And those bloody road slabs that don't fit...!
Cucumber... What the actual fuck are you??
6 days weeks to make up for long weekends, which are just the best.
Manny,
Thanks for explaining that.... The point is that there is no need to further push the anti war agenda on a day when all those across the world are thinking precisely about loss and its cause, thanks for the red and the explanation. Sometimes i think Lu is a bit harsh on you but then.....
Harsh? Haha. The SOB little coward can't handle me, thus he attacks my wife repeatedly. When butthurt with the truth, he wants to get to me but can't. He can't beat me in debate (can't debate at all), can't beat me physically (runt), can't beat me intellectually (not so bright), so resorts to fake claims and made-up nonsense about my wife. How sad a little fkcer is that? Are there any members on here who, disliking the truth told about them, make personal attacks on the truth-teller's wife? That's so Trumpian and beyond sad.
SOB little runt rat.
The post deserved it. No need to call someone a knob because you don't like the truth...so Luluish.
Methy you are a Knob
Have a Red you loon, i don't dish them out as a rule but i'll make an exception for you.
Hows your wife support system going?
There are paragraphs coming, that's for sure.
Not starting on your wife, just concerned for your meal ticket ya muppet
My daily moan is tweakers and the misery they cause to society, eh Methy

Like old schooldays when a fight broke out.
This thread keeping hitting top of new posts is like the one kid who shouted 'fight, fight, fight'.
Just toweled off as YD would say, ready for round 2.
Since the day is over...my moan is...why don't more see it as Caitlin does(referring to American Vets)?
Excerpts from:
The Best Way To Honor War Veterans Is To Stop Creating Them
https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/t...m-a034a2714499
. . .The US will be celebrating Veterans Day tomorrow, and many a striped flag shall be waved. The social currency of esteem will be used to elevate those who have served in the US military, thereby ensuring future generations of recruits to be thrown into the gears of the globe-spanning war machine.
Veterans Day is not a holiday to honor the men and women who have dutifully protected their country. The youngest Americans who arguably defended their nation from a real threat to its shores are in their nineties, and soon there won’t be any of them left. Every single person who has served in the US military since the end of the second World War has protected nothing other than the agendas of global hegemony, resource control and war profiteering. They have not been fighting and dying for freedom and democracy, they have been fighting and dying for imperialism, Raytheon profit margins, and crude oil.
I just said something you’re not supposed to say. People have dedicated many years of their lives to the service of the US military; they’ve given their limbs to it, they’ve suffered horrific brain damage for it, they’ve given their very lives to it. Families have been ripped apart by the violence that has been inflicted upon members of the US Armed Forces; you’re not supposed to let them hear you say that their loved one was destroyed because some sociopathic nerds somewhere in Washington decided that it would give America an advantage over potential economic rivals to control a particular stretch of Middle Eastern dirt. But it is true, and if we don’t start acknowledging that truth lives are going to keep getting thrown into the gears of the machine for the power and profit of a few depraved oligarchs. So I’m going to keep saying it.
This Veterans Day, don’t honor those who have served by giving reverence and legitimacy to a war machine which is exclusively used for inflicting great evil. Honor them by disassembling that machine.
20 pint hangover
My work computer got fried yesterday. Now I have to use my own laptop, but all the files that I need are on my now fried 'puter. And the bloody IT department is not interested in paying my office a visit to find out if the computer (or at least the files) can be salvaged.
pues, estamos aqui
