there are far too many that would beg to differ
Many go for crappy highs. I tried "recreational" Lyrica out once. Felt like "recreational" Tramadol, ie poor, not worth the health risk at all.

Painkiller. Tolerance develops quickly. I remember reading it could damage eyesight. Little value as a drug to get high but some people will abuse everything (for want of alternatives).
It seems that the type of pain it targets (neurological, chronic, cause hard to pinpoint) could be amenable to cannabis. Only governments prefer their elderly population to be hooked on Lyrica, in typical war-on-drugs fashion.

I can't believe the way they're salivating over going on a war footing.I wish every British politician was required to visit the graveyards and tour the museums in Kanchanaburi to see what happens when you send your young men off to foreign wars. Nowadays, it'll be young men and women.
I'd rather the Ukranians fight than I though. Therefore I say "let the Ukranians have all the weapons they want".

Those nationalities basically get a "stay as long as you like" deal. Like an LTR visa but free of charge. There's no mistaking the way the wind is blowing. It's game over for Farangs in Thailand. (Has been for some time judging by girls' attitudes by the way).

Many consulates require proof of residency in the foreign country if you are not living in your home country. This may lead to a catch-22 situation if you are living in Thailand because what kind of proof of residency do you get from thailand? All you have to show is a Visa and a Visa is not a residency permit. Indeed if at the same time you no longer have any residency in your home country you might find there is no consulate anywhere willing to handle your application for a retirement Visa. Even the Mexican consulate in your home country might raise objections because you are no longer living in your home country.

At last an article whose title has nothing whatsoever to do with the content!
Usually there would be some connection between the title and the content so you would strain to ascertain what that connection was. No such worry here.

"Section 145 of the Narcotics Control Act: possessing Category 1 drug (methamphetamine). The penalty is imprisonment from two to 20 years and a fine of 200,000 to 2 million baht."
Trying to procure drugs and possessing drugs are not the same thing. In most countries merely shopping around for drugs is specifically not illegal per se. This is so that undercover police can shop around for drugs to catch drug sellers without the police having to break the law.

If some Thai ruins my 2500-euro a-piece hearing aids by splashing water unto it, a lot of good it will do to me to have the Thai's apologies. Can I file an insurance claim with the Thai's apology?

"If you are lonely and desperate why not find a gf at the local hardware store?"
Are half-way decent looking girls keen on men who are "lonely and desperate"? That's new. I'd have thought girls hated losers, going instead for men who exude strength, confidence and control.

On mongering sites some men will like to brag about pulling freebies (or pulling working girls below list-price). Endless discussions would ensue. Such endless discussions were not so common in earlier internet days, when posting pictures of the girls was ok, indeed expected. A pic would often reveal we're not talking about the same types of girls lookswise.
It is funny though how inveterate sex-tourists often feel the need to distance themselves from their peers.
What they need asking is why would female employees in a country like Thailand be easier than say the ones in Toronto or Stockholm? If you can pull freebies in Thailand so can you in your own country. Why then do you save all year long to be able to afford flights half-way around the world to hot mosquito-ridden countries where you can't stand the food, don't understand the language, and often risk being robbed at knifepoint?

162 people killed, 1,279 injured within 4 days?
No big deal.
Cannabis is the national catastrophe: 162 people with anxiety and 1,279 with reduced motivation.

The problem is that the water-throwing synergises with the worst aspects of Thai Society, like willingness to accept any degree of road carnage. Make no mistake about it, when they throw water at scooters, they don't mind at all, indeed hope, to throw the driver off balance.

Sixty years ago, I took a little yellow amphetamine for a technical drawing exam. I finished 45 minutes before anybody else and got a pass with honours. Some say it is the same for maths, but with English it can make you too confident. (Just passing through, folks.)
Indeed. I remember taking Modafinil for physics exams. I felt focused like never before and got better results. However if I studied for my exam under Modafinil the learning was poor. Good for taking the exam, bad for learning towards the exam.

I don't use any password to unlock it. If someone stole my phone or i lose it, everyone has free access to it.
Sorry but it's hard to believe someone can be so careless.
All the same, they didn't force you to unlock your phone, so it's not so bad after all. I read US customs could keep passengers under arrest as long as they didn't unlock some password-protected drives on their laptops. That is really bad.
Someone once recommended to "clean" my smartphone before traveling to Malaysia. I guess the same recommendation would apply eg to Indonesia and many African destination.

Did they ask you to unlock your phone and hand it over to them for checking the content?

This is a great excuse to Israel to bomb Irans nuclear facility
Difficult. Israelis now no longer allowed to fly over Saudi Arabia (or Irak) I think. They would need to use missiles. I've read the Iranians had scattered their "nuclear facilities", especially whichever nuclear warheads they may already have produced. So no easy option apart from armageddon.

A decade and a half ago Jimmy Carter said Israel had about 123 nuclear warheads in its arsenal. Best thing for Israel could be to nuke Iran before it's too late. A small country like Israel can only have a first-strike nuclear doctrine unless it equips itself with a submarine deterrent.

They write "pause". Semantics may not be their forte. Maybe it meant "abolished". The TM6 serves no purpose, apart from being able to fine those who lose it.

Can someone tell me if there's water throwing early in the morning at breakfast time? Like before 9am.

The drug Lyrica
in Health and Medicine
Posted
In fact not really addicts. Rather 70% of elderly patients in Europe right now. They start with 50mg, 2 years later already 250 or 300mg.
