Not Gouda for you: Kim Jong-Un may be seriously ill from eating too much Emmental Cheese - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Kardia;46031182]The NK government are great at covering up their dirty little secrets. Look here... He's actually turning himself into Swiss cheese, he thinks it'll make him a God. [t]http://i.imgur.com/KCeSb4w.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] This looks more as if he's recently imported mass quantities of Spongebob Squarepants box sets, not Swiss cheese.

I hope he dies so we get our Korean Gorbachev already.

Damnit, when we said "turn Kim Jong-Un into swiss cheese", we didn't mean it literally!

The glutton gets his just reward.

[QUOTE=Maximo13;46030788]This has happened to me. I've sometimes bough like 500g or 1kg of Emmentaler block and I've eaten it all and nearly died.[/QUOTE] A KILO of cheese in a day? What the jesus?

[QUOTE=Aredbomb;46029591]So if he dies who would his heir be? His two brothers both dislike North Korea and would probably just be a thorn in the rest of the government's side. Would that just be the end of the Kim dynasty?[/QUOTE] It probably (and hopefully) would, although even if Kim Jong-un did pop his clogs due to all that cheese and visceral fat around his heart, one of the generals would probably act as "Grand Vizier" until Kim's kid was old enough to take the reins, or more likely the general would take power and the kid would be stuffed (and possibly roasted considering the horror stories we've heard). Either way, there'd be no good end to the regime since Seoul would have to pick up the pieces if they want to reintegrate their wayward cousins into a unified Korea, though despite it being difficult to achieve and taking a lot of time and effort, it would probably be worth it in the end. Plus people would actually be able to get into Korea by land for once, since the "Iron Curtain" of North Korea has South Korea essentially cut off by land, forcing them to rely on sea and air to pick up the slack in terms of international transport.

Fun fact: the majority of Asians are lactose intolerant. It's because the digestion of milk products is facilitated by the bacterial flora of our intestines. The diversity of bacteria is region-dependant. Bacteria are passed on from your mother to you when you are born. By the way, the people most tolerant to cheese are the Dutch.

of course, this explains the rocket tests, he's trying to go to the moon to secure a steady supply of cheese for him and his grandfather's unicorn

Reminds me of this guy I know, every lan party, instead of buying snacks, he bought a big piece of cheese and ate it. He isn't fat oddly enough, he is a tall bearded viking looking guy. :v:

[QUOTE=Benjimon007;46032980]Doesn't microbial lactase help?[/QUOTE] Not nearly enough unless you take bacterial supplements, IIRC. Most of the time the intestinal flora just degrades it into methane and hydrogen.

[QUOTE=Pr0fane;46030507]Do yourself a favour. If you ever see "Old Amsterdam" for sale. Buy it, all of it. It's expensive, but it's the best cheese ever. [img]http://www.levensmiddelenkrant.nl/uploads/foto/OLD_AMSTERDAM_HOLLAND-A840x630.jpg[/img] I have no clue how readily available it is outside of the Netherlands.[/QUOTE] Can confirm. Old Amsterdam is amazing, it's one of the finest cheeses you can buy. Nothing beats a cold beer after work with some Old Amsterdam.

Dude needs to try out some Aura. [img]http://i.imgur.com/JQvqlps.jpg[/img] Best cheese on the planet.

If he dies, maybe we'll have another shot at "guys quit fucking around and we can all get along"

[QUOTE=Del91;46029412]Swiss is like my least favorite cheese [editline]20th September 2014[/editline] Havarti best cheese[/QUOTE] The fact that I got PM's about this makes me lol

[QUOTE=Saber15;46030857]They have a health care system, it's just reserved for the elites, like pretty much all other infrastructure.[/QUOTE] to be fair, it's probably soviet tier, or at least, closer to it than ours :v:

[QUOTE=nikomo;46033960]Dude needs to try out some Aura. [img]http://i.imgur.com/JQvqlps.jpg[/img] Best cheese on the planet.[/QUOTE]Bollocks, Danablu is far superior. It does cost an arm and a leg by comparison, though, so I do usually rely on Aura for most sandwiches.

[QUOTE=Explosions;46029399]It's like a parody of a dystopian state, kooky dictator and all.[/QUOTE] It's not even a parody. North Korea is the real deal, on par or even worse than most dystopian fiction.

As hilarious as this is, I have no sympathy for him. North Korean citizens are starving under brutal tyranny while the government uses all of it's power to let the few political elite to have a cushy life. Also, fuck Kim Jong-Un. How can he even go to a modern Western country like Switzerland where I presume it's lovely and then go back to North Korea to continue the government policy of despair and depravity?!

To be fair, did you really expect anything else?
