That's a bit like getting plain boiled rice with Plain boiled noodles on top and seaweed on top of that and serving it to a White person and asking them how they like Yellow peoples food It kind of makes you wonder if they're being slightly racist. Looking for a reason to sh*t on Westerners. Obviously China has form in this area. They're certainly not being particularly honest. Cheese and crackers is not exactly exciting, but if the cheese is good and the crackers not stale, they should taste nice. As you say, it wouldn't be hard to get some plain rice or unflavoured noodles and say how bland they are.

Where in the story does the "revenge plot go awry"? So far it sounds fairly successful as it has caused incredible public shame and harassment for the girl. We have no idea if the police will ever get hold of the guy, nor if they will do anything when they do. (I'm starting to doubt Nattapong's "dedication to the craft".) All for the terrible crime of dumping a cheating low-life. At least he didn't shoot her. ????

Move Forward and the double-edged sword of ‘orange fandom’
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They're probably hoping that Thailand slips into "noisy minority rule" like some Western countries that seem to be ruled by twitter fascists that scare people into complying with them. Let's hope that doesn't happen in Thailand. -
It's an Asian thing. The Chinese are super loud. Also the Vietnamese, who can sound like they're having a blazing row when they're just having a chat. At least the Thais have a relatively pleasant sounding language. In many circumstances, Thais can be a lot quieter than foreigners. But when it comes to "noise pollution" type noise (cars, motorbikes, music), the Thais are trying pretty hard to be the best at it.

Interesting point. Obviously they're using the guy's nationality, but it does leave it quite vague as to who his audience is. I suppose it's just referred to as "YouTube", so we don't hear where the viewers are. If he was on Thai TV, I guess it would be "American star of Thai TV". Certainly, "American TV star" would leave you thinking that it was American TV. Possibly "American YouTuber who produces content in Thailand and has a predominantly Thai audience..." would clear it up, but reporting can be pretty lazy. The internet certainly hasn't done much to improve the quality (or accuracy) of the written word.
