One of my biggest mistakes was ordering “spicy” level Thai food. Took me about a week to finish it because I could only handle one bite every few hours.
Lmao. I’m from the Middle East and we eat spicy food regularly, but Indian spicy is on a whole new level for me. I’ve had their “hot” once and never again. I always get “medium”.
Same here, but I just realized how much I loved the Thai and Indian level of spice and now I’m the weirdo whose home garden is 75% “super hot” peppers.

One local Thai shop had the sense to offer both “
$nationalityspicy” and “thai spicy”That’s pretty universal at Thai places. There’s hot and then Thai hot.
When my wife and talk about spice level, we clarify if it’s white-boy spicy or Hispanic spicy.
The Venn diagram is a circle?

Same. I grew up eating habanero and jalapeno peppers, but Thai and Indian hits different.
