TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking clarification on the latest exit date to avoid wasting time on their current visa, which requires them to leave Thailand by November 9. They are also inquiring whether they can apply for a Non-O visa while in nearby countries like Laos or the Philippines instead of returning to the U.S.

You have to exit on or before the 9th of November. To apply for the Non-O you just need to go to any country of your choice that allows non-residents to apply. Laos is a popular choice but pretty much any nearby country works

I meant get 60 more days without applying for 90 day. Again I am assuming no.

what stops people from just continuing to do that..besides it's a hassle..I assume there is a limit to how many times you could do it.

there's no official limit but every entry is at the discretion of the immigration officer you will stand in front of. If they think you are abusing the system to live in Thailand they will deny you entry. Visa exempt is designed for short term tourism, people get denied even on their 2nd entry although its more normal to get a warning
