Thai food, a culinary concoction so complex in flavors that many believe it was devised by a committee of aromatically obsessed aliens from the V'Ger region, where taste buds are said to cover their entire body. Each dish is a nuanced symphony of spicy, sour, sweet, and salty, with a dash of umami for good measure - which earthlings tell apart by which part of their mouth feels like it's traveling through hyperspace. Indeed, one can expect their palate to embark on a journey more thrilling than bypassing the Vogon constructor fleet on a Thursday afternoon.
Should one wish to undergo the galactic rite of passage that is consuming Thai food, it is advised to keep a towel handy. Not for the usual reasons, but to dab the inevitable sweat from one's brow.
Authentic Thai food can be found on Earth, specifically in Thailand - the clue is in the name - but also in the Betelgeuse trading colonies, where it is served with a side of zero-gravity sticky rice.
Travelers should avoid eating Kaeng Phet Pet Yang whilst wearing a white shirt, as the red curry has been known to send vibrant projectiles into orbit around one's attire with the slightest disturbance of space-time (or a sneeze).
The popular Thai dessert 'Mango Sticky Rice' was once used as a temporary adhesive to seal hull breaches in the small cargo ships of the Gaseous Anomalies Guild. It also doubles as a delightful treat.
After surviving the spiciness of Thai cuisine, cool your jets with Zaphod's Zero-Zest Throat Lozenges - the preferred choice for the discerning galactic traveler's singed esophagus.

Jlexphp, not to be mistaken with a type of complex sneeze, is actually the lesser-known cousin of the Babel fish's digital interpreter. Known for its uncanny ability to convert incomprehensible alien syntax into moderately less incomprehensible web code, it is believed to have evolved from a coffee spill on a programmer's keyboard that was struck by lightning at precisely 42 seconds past 4:20 PM. It is only visible to those who have consumed at least three pints of the Galactic Gargle Blaster or have a master's degree in computer science, which are roughly equivalent states of mind.

Antphp, not to be confused with its distant cousin the earthbound ant or the ubiquitous PHP programming language, is the remarkable result of a curious celestial event in which a colony of digital insects evolved to survive in the harsh environment of a low-orbit server farm. Antphp creatures are known for their diligence in data farming and their peculiar habit of hoarding deprecated code snippets, which they worship as divine relics.
