    We are in The Age of The Stupid, as exampled so manifestly by the American and English lower end, and there it is.

    The sheer enormity of turning the clock back 48 years in order to re-erect barriers to unfettered trade with 450 million consumers 22 miles distant for no discernible, tangible benefit is truly beyond any rational understanding and must represent the single greatest act of stupidity by the English since the charge of the light brigade.

    That they need pictograms to demonstrate how to fit a fucking mask comes as no surprise, 17.6 million of the fuckers were so fucking stupid they actually believed a renown narcissistic, sociopathic liar, an unelectable drunken buffoon and a coke-sniffing madman that the EU was the cause of the 2008 crash and the consequential age of Tory austerity.

    Wearing a mask in certain circumstances is second-nature here and in many regions in Asia because people are more considerate than many in the UK/USA etc, when it comes to minimise spread of any airborne virus or bacteria. When I'm in the supermarket, I certainly don't want to expose myself to flu or cold viruses etc when others cough in my vicinity. (I have aspergillosis, fungal spores in my lungs, and wearing a mask when close to others is sensible and absolutely no hassle for me to do so).

    Give me Laos any day over the UK/USA etc. Ever wonder why Laos has ZERO covid-19 deaths and only 40 cases, now all recovered? Wearing masks when close to others is a major reason why Laos is second only to the islands of Vanuatu, in the global list of least-cases-of-covid.
    Groping women when you're old is fine - everyone thinks you're senile

    Exactly, jealousy on Balders part.

    Balders has a thing for all things greasy and metal, he's just envious this chap has managed to mate himself to all manner of engineering surfaces and get away with it for yonks. Oh and he's a Brit, which means he didn't have to resort to fuking marsupials or in Balders case young camels.

    I have often wondered why you continue to post virtually word for word, your opinion on issues completely outside your remit.
    You post the same rubbish day after day, hoping that at least one other member of an obscure Thai forum, will agree with you.
    Newsflash! Your imbecilic ramblings obviously sound great to you, but no one else seems to give a fuck what you think. It’s not just terminally boring, it’s also completely inaccurate. Of course, you are entitled to an opinion, and to be a complete arsehole while expressing it, but posting such nonsense on a daily basis makes you look and sound like a complete moron.
    Do punters in your local have to put up with this crap?

    You contradict yourself. How is not wanting to expose yourself being more considerate?

    These are not more considerate societies. They're more selfish societies, places where people drive dangerously, ignore pedestrian crossings, don't hold the door open for the person walking behind, force their children to work etc.

    Nope - when I sold my one-man-band text messaging business to a certain, well-known UK company, I went to work as CTO for their new mobile comms offshoot. The office was in a beautiful regency house near Regent's Park. It was in the basement that had stood empty for yonks. It had no windows (it's a basement!) and was unheated and damp. After a few months working there, I developed a cough which then got worse and worse until it was almost nonstop, with bouts of pneumonia and bronchitus. I was unable to speak, in case I involuntarily coughed all over my colleagues. Hospital tests showed that I had inhaled invisible fungal spores which were now happily living in my lungs.

    I was getting more and more sick, with no medical treatment working. Finally, my private doctor said that it was known that the condition can be improved by living in a country with a hot and humid atmosphere. So for the sake of my health, I decided that I had to move to Thailand. My wife refused to come with me and I had to divorce her and leave my 3 young kids.

    After living in Thailand, my condition much improved, but the spores were still present in my lungs. I therefore took up daily walking exercises to make my lungs stronger - this is why I walk 6 Km every day. I also took up playing the Lao khaen musical instrument, since I could play music when breathing in and out without pausing. (The tunes that I play suck.....)

    After about 15 years in south-east Asia, I think the spores have finally been beaten into submission. For the past 5 years, I've had no symptoms, but still maintain my lung exercises.
