  1. Most countries are def more educated than America is. To quote Chris Rock, "They be thinking a book is like kryptonite".

     

    The whole IQ-mania thing here is something I snark at, but do not participate in.  Obv. success is not even remotely about being smart. I'm prob more conventionally successful than most people here. Who's voting for me to have genius status? 

     

    For the rest of the world, it's the Trainspotting conundrum: "Plonkers sure, but what about being conquered by plonkers?"

    You know the greatest thing about Americans that talk like this is that they are so superior you can make a fortune drinking them under the table at bars.

     

     

     

     

    We're talking about the mildest kidding being met with this scribe of huffiness.

     

    Then the deranged he-man alcoholism boast.

     

    Nope, can't get anymore Canadian than that.

    I was someone else with a Laos-oriented name for about 20 months.

     

    I like commenting on forums. I do Slate a bit too. Prob the best one left standing.

     

    Hard to find one that's not like Yahoo News where it's just random idiots screaming into a useless internet maw.

  4. Jian Tong in the Nimman1 Mall had a nice duck at a decent price, but it did not have the super-crispy skin that I expect with the dish.

     

    Hong Kong Lucy Restaurant on the top floor of the Maya Mall gets closer and has the other specialty Chinese hanging meats at a good price. Not particularly cozy, tho.

     

    Haven't been yet, but Yangzi Jiang in Nimman is a pretty place that my Taiwanese neighbors like.

     

    If I have Peking Duck, it's so rich that I don't want it again for a very long time.

     

    I had a $150 Peking duck in NYC where the duck was crisped table-side with a flame gun. Best ever.

    Two years ago  Chiang Mai Ram had a Endoscopy and Colonoscopy special. Total price was 39,000. Might be worth the time to ask private hospitals what they would charge.

    In fact, it was 39K. Sorry!

     

    I was in an out in about an hour, including the consult. No discomfort at all. When I got home,  I slept like a rock for a couple of hours.

     

    The cleanup process was much less onerous than my last attempt a dozen years ago. But yeah, make sure you laptop is charged for the toilet time.
