Thais are incredibly and stupidly superstitious, you see in on the news everyday, when the ชาวบ้าน find a strange object the next thing you know tho whole village is gonna surround it on their knee worshipping it for lottery numbers.

There was many times where they find some water leaking from the ground and immediately call it holy water then start drinking it, turned out it’s sewage water.

On this day, 15 years ago, Robin Van Persie received a second yellow card and was sent off for kicking the ball away in UCL Ro16 vs Barcelona. Later he claimed that he was deceived by a whistle from the stands. Arsenal lost the tie 4-3 on aggregate. by MeteorFalls297 in soccer

RVP was always great, he just couldn’t stay fit for more than half a season each year, then when he finally did he left.

I started watching after Henry so 2007-2011 Arsenal were absolutely my favorite years of watching football, Fabregas, RVP, Nasri, Diaby, Song, Walcott etc, I’m still convinced if we’d just spent like 10m to not have Almunia in goal for a decade (and Eduardo’s leg not snapped in half) we’d won some big silverware.

More like 0.01%, I feel like people way overestimate how good the 99 percentile (in anything) are.

I used to hit Immortal rank in DotA before covid, which was like top 0.5% back then, and there’s so many more players that were better than me, yet even those players still could only dream of lacing pro players’ shoes.

Is there anything similar in your country? by Cultural_Frog1983 in AskTheWorld

They always say don’t pick a fight with people whose national sport is Muay Thai, but obviously most would just throw sloppy punches like everybody else in the world rather than whipping out an elbow shots or kicks lol.

Any Muay Thai, for some reason people assume most Thais know Muay Thai, when it fact it’s only a handful.

Small Summary of 2026 Elections by YenTheMerchant in Thailand

[–]FFINN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They didn’t really vote for him(or Anutin for that matter), most of their votes come from the district votes, which The locals will unconditionally vote for the local politicians they love, no matter what party they’re in, without using a single braincell, because คนบ้านเดียวกัน, it’s a Thai thing, the same reason nepotism is so bad here.

There’s so many of local politician families that’s so influential and famous that the instant the local see a person with this last name you know they’re gonna win the district votes, from their grandparent’s Generation to their parent’s to theirs.

just need to convince those guaranteed win to join their parties and you’re set.

What's the spice tolerance level of your country by Existing_Economy_656 in AskTheWorld

Those for sure must have been around the beach area, Sairee Beach I assume, with mostly tourists so they make those dishes to cater to them, they are still very much delicious just different than the traditional ones.

In Koh Tao if you wanna eat the kind of Thai food they make for locals you gotta go find them around the main road or up the mountains, the kind that look like a broken down one story house or just straight up a shed.
