I think British style plugs are the best despite their bulkiness. For one they are easily fixed and are designed to be so.

I know it’s difficult to tell online, but I read that as a joke post. Not serious. But it’s better for others to make fun of others for being clueless I guess.
Yeah. It always strikes me as bizarre how many people online see something that would only be satire in a sane world and completely assume it's serious. They have no doubts. Never occurred to them it might be a joke...
Damn Poe’s Law
I feel like it should be more like "Poe's sometimes true thing" because satire does indeed still exist. People making assumptions is the issue.

People like this think Trump is a genius
I mean makes sense, there is a big Chunk of population in the USA who don't have the means and opportunity to travel abroad and get used to the other electrical outlets in other countries.
Hell I think 30% of the adults in there haven't ever been abroad once on their lifetime.
Understandably, it's going to baffle more than one person who gets shared those travel experiences from traveling acquaintances
Thailand has really cool plugs. they're shaped so they can fit European or American outlets, quite often. I rarely needed an adapter when I was there
Very cool, I guess there is a voltage adapter built in?
Nope. So don’t plug a 120V hairdryer or corded drill in those things.
No, voltage adapters are built into basically every electronic device now so it doesn't matter which you plug into
Yes for electronic devices that expect low voltage DC and have a converter, like laptops, phone chargers, etc.
But don't try and take a 120V hairdryer on holiday and plug it in because it will certainly blow up.

No-one going to mention that they said countries and named two continents?
Because it reads like this:
“In other countries, like [those in] Europe or South America”.
