Having said this, Lao Khao is not different than any other industrially distilled spirit. In Thailand, it is normally created from molasses, eg a waste product, and is tasteless. You could drink industrial vodka or schnaps just as well.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:39:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Bangladeshi Tourist Punched in Face on Pattaya Beach</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396293-bangladeshi-tourist-punched-in-face-on-pattaya-beach/?do=findComment&comment=20545232]]></link><description>In Thai it means pubic hair.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:38:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>damn soi dogs</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396407-damn-soi-dogs/?do=findComment&comment=20545231]]></link><description>The dogs up around here know what a stick is and even a rock, pick up a rock or flash a stick and they skedaddle.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:36:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Do You Even Peanut Butter in Thailand?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396212-do-you-even-peanut-butter-in-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20545230]]></link><description>It will still lead to a biased set of results if you use a search term with either a positive or negative connotation. The stronger the connotation the more biased the results. The greater the degree polarization in the raw data, the stronger the bias will be in the results.  In fact, I believe that a straight google search using biased terms in the query will yield results that are more biased than if performed as an AI query. AI query processing includes more context from the query than a simple web search does. The extra context considered by the AI will often dilute the effect of the biased search term. Web searches often discard some words from the query that are considered to be of low importance.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:35:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trump Ends NBC Interview After Clash Over Election Claims</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396277-trump-ends-nbc-interview-after-clash-over-election-claims/?do=findComment&comment=20545229]]></link><description>Are you claiming that Trump was not lying? &#x1F603;</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:34:40 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Censorship of support for Palestine</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396337-censorship-of-support-for-palestine/?do=findComment&comment=20545228]]></link><description>Meanwhile the expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza is openly promoted by members of the Israeli Government while the illegal establishment of settlements in the west bank is an official Israeli policy.  The PM of Israel has stated there will never be a Palestinian state.  There are others within the Israeli Government who are very much more rabid in their remarks.  &#x201C;On the other hand, it's very clear that the vast majority of Israeli Jews would be willing to live in peace side by side with Palestinians IF the anti-Jewish genocidal narrative of the Palestinian side changed to PERMANENT acceptance of the existence of Israeli.&#x201D;  I&#x2019;m not convinced that is the view of the majority of Jews in Israel.  And please genocide is not a bargaining chip, well perhaps it is in the minds of those who regard the lives of Palestinians to be worthless.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:34:06 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Spencer Pratt For Mayor of LA.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394142-spencer-pratt-for-mayor-of-la/?do=findComment&comment=20545227]]></link><description>Of course, he was endorsed by Trump!

We used to have many soi dogs running through our property but I have always been loud and aggressive even with a pack of them. The Thai neighbors think I am crazy when I shout and chase them but it has the desired effect. They are only a minimal problem now as they seemed to have learnt.</description><pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2026 12:30:14 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>A heads-up for foreign residents using Krung Thai Bank.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396294-a-heads-up-for-foreign-residents-using-krung-thai-bank/?do=findComment&comment=20545221]]></link><description>This would probably have been worth a separate thread if you were willing to give more details?
