I love Bangkok. I keep coming back because its a good base to get organized and stock up on fast food and other Western comforts. I didn't know anything about Bangkok before I came here that first time, I didn't even know anybody who had been here before, but it blew away all my expectations. If you could just see that brand-new, world-class, state of the art mall, the Siam Paragon. The food ... Read Full Entry

Yuppie supermarket at the Paragon

I love the Paragon because there I am no longer fantastically wealthy, I am just regular old backpacker trash. Also, people watching is tops- we saw the Thai Imelda Marcos

Senti is a goth that writes bad poetry and thinks she's a cat

Or else she was inspired by the mountain of Hello Kitty crap at Chinatown.

more shocks in SEA
I cant believe you are scaring innocent Thai children who only came to gawk at dead people!!!!!!!!! What kind of person are you? The mind also boggles at the perils of sex toys. I think we can all learn a lesson from that one. Thanks for your e-mails. I sent you a mammoth one back. Sorry it took me so long. By the way I GOT YOUR POSTCARD.

Okay, I feel really bad right now...but I just recently found your postcard you sent me from who-knows-when while cleaning my stuff out of the house. It got mixed up with some junk mail that was sitting around near my coffee table. So THANK YOU!!! I really liked it! I feel like a total jerk now. =[

Open your eyes
The orangutan show this uneducated person describes was shut down due to the 100 odd abused and illegally obtained apes being confiscated and returned to rehab centres in the hope of someday putting them back where the belong. Of course this will not help the 700 orangutans that were probably killed or died in transit in the safari parks effort to obtain its show animals. Well done to this idiot for creating a demand which will probably lead to more orangutans being illegally hunted and killed so that their babies can be made to perform in these shows for the "homer simpsons" of the world.
