Last night’s final summer series 30-min display to Coldplay soundtrack. I thought at first these freeze-framed images reflected projections from the ground but they were random combinations of energy and smoke. Suck it, Olympiques!

For sure, most preferences and hook-up frequencies can be accommodated in Colombia.

Quiet lodgings may have more to do with location in a building than particular neighbourhood. For example, in a lovely Estadio/Laureles unit walkable to the Metro I could not sleep due to street traffic on a secondary north/south roadway, but moved following day to the back of the building, larger unit without balcony and with enclosed bedrooms further shielding from corridor noise, very peaceful. In contrast, on a main Poblado thoroughfare the street noise was so profound that it bled all the way around and over the roof to the back bedrooms of the penthouse I let. It was unreal. My home base is a bustling downtown zone so it’s not as if I have country mouse expectations.

OP, not shouting with text in caps, though admittedly I am suppressing that instinct. Since it appears Grindr will be your main source of hookups, why don’t you use its Explore function, zooming in and out of geographical zones and entering the data regarding quantity of profiles into a detailed spreadsheet? Book your lodgings in urban areas that have the most profiles by an arbitrary number of square kilometres. For accurate representation conduct these searches within windows of time that match the time frames you anticipate you will be seeking when there. After that, enter into your formula some variables related to free, pay, pay with discount, magnitude of discount, position, Metro card holders, Uber account possessors, and so on. This will help you to zero in on what I believe for you is the dilemma of selecting among 4 consecutive neighbourhoods for one-week stays in cities that I believe you have, thankfully, already narrowed down. Though I see that the local availability of purified water may now play an additional role. Consider all the above with the added factor of district safety ratings. Good luck, and enjoy. Board history in general suggests we won’t get feedback following your travails but will hope that doesn’t mean you met an untimely or unfortunate outcome. The feedback is important, though, as the majority of posters go for average-looking talent, trade or otherwise, and that’s a good fit given your agenda. I am glad you have mentioned attention to the view.

I hope your heart condition is stable or improves. Sciatic muscle spasm inclination is my Kryptonite if I cannot rely on bag wheels. I have mapped out a unique yet quick way to get by subway from El Prat to lodgings with minimal endless corridor and staircase luggage hauling.

Yeah, that’s the kind of strategy that triggers border inspection “accidents”. Apart from the fact that I refuse to voluntarily live in a world that requires that level of absurdity.

I have been searched twice as a Canadian entrant. One was fun because the young Montreal Little Italy hunk asked me why my upper left cheek muscle (my face, pigs) seemed to be involuntarily twitching; it happens when sleep-deprived. He wrapped things up after he asked me to open the toiletry kit containing douche bulb, a few salt packets, KY, condoms, and an aquarium motor. The other inspection was a very pleasant sociable young woman who, similarly, endured the toiletry bag exposure, but with a contraband undeclared apple packed to avoid bruising. No Apple phone inspection and not asked to activate it. Apple not confiscated. 90% of secondary inspections are triggered by the electronic kiosk stage. Human agents override about 60% of them. So the majority were already primed and a minority of the first majority are deemed search-worthy according to discretion. Therefore, your chances of being considered to be suspicious yet not searched are far greater than being subject to secondary inspection based purely on officer discretion. If you are not arriving as an Iranian or Jamaican national there is not much worth grousing about.

“Yannick, he swears he’s the guy from Dances With Wolves but I’m not buying it!”

That could be because most here that go there are pursuing a Doctorate of non-Philosophy in FineAss.

In case, like, any of us is going to be asexual.

Goes to show you that the average attention span of a netizen anywhere can be increased 70-fold in spite of an overly lengthy under-edited piece actually satirizing farangs. Next up, give them a free viewing of The Hangover 2, Crazy Rich Asians, and Joy Ride, etc, depictions that are actually more designed with lampooning in mind. Says a lot when a random local ESL lickspittle instructor gets to decide what is outré and lead the silly cancel pack. That’s his 15 seconds of fame done and dusted.

Well, cool cats, but one turning on him as cats are inclined to do. Any Yale grad knows that immaculate conception skips a generation. Technically it could possibly be a Caesarean but also possibly DIY without the “et tu …”.

The reason may be that they seem to waive the GMAT for, say, the MBA programs in the same business school. This may be due to existing research globally on correlations between the component scores and MBA subsequent academic grades. I personally like a challenge. If it were me and I had undertaken GMAT historically for Masters studies entry I would summarize by the end of today the available research on the predictive value (e.g. Pearson’s r) of GMAT component scores for whatever range and academic level of business school success will have been included. Depending on the findings, might make a pitch for waiver.

Now we’re talking. Here’s a start. ChulaU in BKK. Seems reasonably light on classroom credits, taught in English, and ridiculously inexpensive at merely $2,500 USD for each of the 4 years. And application processing fee waived if not accepted?!

This shouldn’t affect the majority of local trade since resistance training isn’t on their radar.

Perhaps the walked dog comparison reference point makes a difference.

You really have a knack for coming across as decompensating in the face of disagreement. It reminds me of your going-off-track assertions that various posters have never actually physically visited Bangkok when you find yourself at odds with their impressions and experiences of the city. You seem to reach the desperate measures threshold rather quickly. It is easy to know you. I myself would certainly have no need for your fandom.

That may be the case, but any one of those teams displaying congratulatory enthusiasm throughout a game would and should view embarrassingly a media representation of 5th or 6th place at a tournament’s end as a ‘massively’ impressive showing. In that context, such would be possibly considered to be sarcasm … no matter the exuberant pile ups of team participants that occurred at key game points. Again, to sum up, Hong’s vault is not the story of the Olympic Men’s Artistic Team Final. The story perhaps gets more folks to stop and look more, tune in to, events. Personalizing with the notion of a GOAT that is not nearly the GOAT is a way to reel in the reader emotionally. If I’m going to be a fan, it’s not by getting sucked in.

A joyous response following a good result means more genuinely competitive? Nonsense. I would add that none of the athletes, performance and standing rank notwithstanding, withhold emotive expressiveness subsequent to their event. My point is simply that the viewership may conflate adrenaline-fuelled air-pumping with grade of execution but judges do (or should) not. I doubt the US-centric media would have picked up the story if he had walked off poker-faced following the exact same result. If he was happy about an apparatus event and landing on his feet rather than his ass, good for him. What is impressive is that he has the versatility, compared to others in his team, to have been featured in 4 of 6 rotations, placing reasonably well and supporting a podium finish. That said, there was a lot more to be impressed about with respect to the Team Final.

6th place Vault score in a field of 24 is good. Enthusiastic fist pumping of air does not add points. 5th in Rings.

Legalities already discussed extensively elsewhere on the board, but reading this brief following revisions of Fall 2023 may assist in your choice. Some but not all unit hosts bit the bullet and applied for non-hotel registration. In my case I took a non-hotel apartment for 30+ days and a hotel room a few blocks away on top of that, but booked the apt prior to Hotel Act revisions and checked in following the revisions, so I suspect they had not been licensed, though mandatory hotel-type safety features such as smoke alarm and fire extinguisher were accommodated. I would ask the host for an explicit answer as to whether the Condo Act is invoked for the building or if the Condo Directors have posted a sign prohibiting ST rentals. Other clues are contained in the number and quality of reviews. Otherwise, if you visit frequently and it remains a single-choice dilemma wherein you can satisfy a non-ST stay for neither unit I suggest splitting your lodgings decision and you’ll have an idea of the better place in future. In that type of case I would overlap by one night so as not to be left in the lurch of a transfer afternoon. All that said, your host (and you) likely wouldn’t be subject to sanctions as the authorities cannot realistically stay on top of thousands of listings. https://www.adb.org/sites/default/files/publication/950246/adb-brief-292-short-term-rentals-thailand.pdf
