Vacationers warned not to buy marijuana cookies in Thailand

Eating "samgyeopsal" with a glass of soju in while traveling Thailand can bring the peculiar joy of having popular Korean barbeque in an exotic environment.

Still, Korean tourists are advised to be cautious, as the aforementioned Korean meal may be served with marijuana, which is forbidden in Korea, according to the nation's customs agency.

Yep, that's what I do. When I get to Thailand I go straight for a Korean restaurant
and eat pork and soju............... .........wtf.

So, as this article says, don't buy cookies. So I guess buying several different
strains at a dispensary and smoking in your room is OK.

This article is so Korean it makes me laugh.

Didn't you know?

South Korea is seriously the squarest country on the planet.

That would be North Korea.

South Korea is more circular: that's why it's top-10 or so in GDP, #1 in hard liquor consumption per capita, and one of most responsive gov'ts to the initial wave of coronovirus.

No.  The reason S.K. has a good GDP, is only because U.S. forces are on the peninsula.

So you mean the 20,000 or less US soldiers are buying Hyundai/Kia cars, Samsung TVs, LG phones, etc to the extent Korea has a top economy?

They're standing guard outside the factories. (Great chance to meet all the single female workers when they get off shift in mass. Much better than your local Starbucks.)

The USA forces helped just like they helped West Germany but by no means are they the reason South Korea is rich! It’s the poor people getting exploited and used by factory owners

That would be North Korea.

At least they have tacky gulag chic. South Korea has the worst beer on the planet and pop culture centered on disposable groups of slaves performing annoying music composed by creepy old men.

Seriously?

It's the logic of the central city dwellers of The Hunger Games.

This century is already the very definition of dystopia.

No, I'm just saying anyone could answer your deflective, bottom-feeding questions. 

Who's the mouthy newb?

That one that was banned a couple weeks ago. Fundumpster, I believe was the handle or something like that.

The most apt description of the flaccid mid-wittery on this forum.

I'm warming to this new Spiced character

Another mouthy newb.

we needed some new blood anyways. or hell even rebranded old blood still works

There is a reason that North Korea is such a successful hellhole. It is because
such a weird totalitarian regime just wouldn't fly anywhere else. But populate
the place with Koreans and it hums along nicely.

Thank goodness no country in Europe or elsewhere has ever had a weird, totalitarian, militaristic megalomaniacal leader in charge with a cult of personality and a bunch of people blindly obeying them and their bizarre ideology.

Learn some history. None have ever been as weird as North Korea.
A Stalinist dictatorship with hereditary  leadership. Complete, 100%,
isolation from the outside world, social status assigned at birth,
imprisoning entire families. Just weird.

Anyway, stay on topic please.

The topic you brought up of North Korea?

Anyways, I can't imagine a European state with collectivist farming, hereditary rule, functional isolation for all but the elites and a few traders, social status assigned at birth, bizarre torture, and entire families imprisoned.

Well, other than Europe from 1000-15~1800.

Hello, it's 2022. Wake up.

Hello, it's 2022. Wake up.

Yeah, it being 2022 means most educated and intelligent people have learned not to make sweeping ethnic generalizations and to orientalize people.
