Back to the Grind
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 04/01/2019
» There is already a lot of sound advice on how to prepare yourself for going back to work after a long holiday. I, too, want to help ease your (and my) post-vacation blues in my own way by reminding you of the good things to come this year.

Post-Election Memes
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 29/03/2019
» Have you been experiencing some sort of anxiety and trauma caused by uncertainty and confusion in the aftermath of the election last week? If yes, you're in luck, because this week I'll do my best to relieve the symptom through the art of meme-ing (hey, it takes a brain to make a point with only one picture and two lines, okay?).

Election Made Easy
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 22/03/2019
» The general election is this Sunday, baby! Aren't you stoked to be able to exercise your right to vote again after a five-year absence (or eight, if you take into consideration that the 2014 general election was deemed invalid by the Constitutional Court). Anywhoo, it can be overwhelming to digest all the information, campaign videos, memes, pictures of hot candidates and fake news that have flooded your Facebook newsfeed lately. Perhaps, it's best to judge our candidates based on their parties' policies and proposals, and Bangkok Poll on Sunday revealed that 97% of respondents in their latest survey will vote on Mar 24 and more than half said party policies will be the first factor when deciding which candidates to vote for.

Hic, hic, hooray!
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 02/08/2013
» Today (Aug 2) is indeed one of the most important dates of the year - it's International Beer Day. Hooray! Beginning in 2007 in Santa Cruz, California, the brew-fest has grown into a global celebration that takes place in 50 countries, including Thailand. While the Thai authorities may appear super vigilant when it comes to drinking, we think this day can be celebrated so long as you're responsible about it. So that's why we're here to help you honour International Beer Day (IBD) like a mature adult. Bottoms up!

Vote for me Please
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 01/02/2013
» The 25 candidates for the position of Bangkok governor were announced last week and some placards and posters have already been put up around the city. What we are likely to also see is the extra lengths candidates will go to in order to garner people's attention and support before the election takes place on March 3. But we're talking about more than grilling bananas or driving a bus here. We've done some research on the most attention-grabbing tactics candidates for Bangkok governor have used in the Kingdom (leave it to us Thais to put a light-hearted spin on everything). Not only should the election candidates take note of these tactics but Bangkokians should too since we don't want to elect someone who is no fun, right? Future Bangkok governor and voters, read on!

Election made easy
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 01/03/2013
» The election for Bangkok Governor will take place this Sunday (March 3). We know how hard it can be to simply even choose a restaurant to dine at with your friends, so we totally understand if some may feel a bit overwhelmed at the prospect of selecting just one out of many candidates vying for the position. But fear not, as we will help you get through this day of monumental importance with our very own guide to the election.

To catch a Thai thief
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 18/01/2013
» We often think the Thai police force suck at their job (but are productive when it comes to gimmicky initiatives such as Ja Choey 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0), but we guess sometimes it doesn't matter because criminals aren't such smart cookies themselves. (That's probably why they chose a life of crime in the first place.) To give police some slack, we've found incidents that show how hilariously some stupid criminals got nabbed by the authorities for your entertainment. Don't do illegal things and/or be this stupid, kids.
