You know what they say about Laos: "There are a million reasons not to live in Laos."

Here's an example: Today there was news that scientists, those unstoppable bearers of eternally bad tidings, have discovered a new species of rodent there.

But you, contrarian fuck that you are, will say, What's so bad about living in a place where new species are uncovered even in these modern, knowitall times? It sounds like a delightful land of discovery to me! Well, dipshit, it's bad because the new rodent was discovered "...for sale on a table next to some vegetables."

So I guess if you like your rodent breakthroughs made next to your haricot vert, then, yes, Laos is a delightful land of discovery.


The Kha-nyou, above, is what's for dinner in Laos.
