Breaking bad news
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/01/2017
» Now that 2016 is finally over, we can rest assured that all the bull**** and f**kery it brought with it will never be repeated. Right? RIGHT?! Bleh, who knows what the future has in store for us. Let's face it, this time last year the thought of Trump becoming the 45th President of the United States probably made you spit out your coffee or, if you're a hipster, choke on your kale juice. But then again, never say never, right?

Words behaving badly
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 15/07/2016
» If the politicians and people of power here do anything well, it's finding the right euphemisms to spin "bad" terms into, well, "not so bad" terms.

» If there's anything this country hasn't quite got a grip on, it's coming to terms with the truth and censorship. Oh sure, ban the Daily Mail and pornographic websites (nothing ruins a country like coitus), and blur out taboo subjects all you want -- we still know what nipples, guns and cigarettes look like. Instead of letting citizens think for themselves, the censorship nazis have decided to put a PG filter on anything that may conjure the slightest spark of controversy.

Bothersome Bangkok
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 11/09/2015
» Bangkokians’ got 99 problems -- and we’re still counting. Sure, there are perks, such as having the safety net of motosai drivers when we’re running super late, a 7-Eleven at every street corner so we’ll never starve to death -- even the persistence of luxury malls, which keep popping up so we’ll never be without brands at which to throw our hard-earned cash. But the reality is us city-dwellers don’t always have it as easy as others might think. Bangkok is a tough city to live in, but know this, Dear Readers, you are never alone -- all 6.3 million of us have, on more than one occasion, also found ourselves in these face-palm-worthy situations. Forget first-world problems, here are 10 common struggles Bangkokians regularly face.

Tricks of the traits
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/03/2015
» Bangkokians are a rare — and confusing — breed. When the economy looks grim, we build more shopping malls. When there is a protest or coup, we turn it into a music festival. When there’s too much pollution, we suck it in like it’s the smell of fresh laundry. To be called a Bangkokian is something that must be earned. Residing around Sukhumvit and spending a quarter of your time stuck in traffic may score you a few points, but believe us, it takes a lot more than that before you can really embrace the status. But fear not, dear readers — Guru has compiled an instruction manual of the basic Bangkokian traits you need to grasp (or at least know about) to blend in with the locals.

Bangkok's Resolutions
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 02/01/2015

Truth be told
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 21/11/2014
» As Thailand prepares for yet another crackdown, it’s the false adverts this time that are on the chopping block. We’re proud supporters of the big clean-up regime — especially this one that involves the removal of (not so) little white lies that assume we’re all idiots and want ridiculous products like an armpit whitener.
