We didn't start the fire
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 10/03/2017
» People, it's not even April yet, and the city feels as though it's been chosen as the launch site for the opening of the gates of hell. Stay cool and hydrated. Make this your daily mantra. This, we're serious about. But as you sip your sweet ice coffee under some air-conditioned refuge, we offer you a light-hearted recap of a few funny, exciting or random bits of news that are theoretical and totally scientific explanations of why this country is so ******* hot right now!

You an Elf or a Grinch?
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 23/12/2016
» There are two types of people in this world: those who live for Christmas lights, ugly sweaters and an endless airplay of We Wish You A Merry Christmas; and those who seek to hibernate through the "winter" and wake up only when times are sane again. Here are signs that you're either straight outta Santa's workshop or the spawn of Scrooge.

Love Cath, Love Her 'Boo
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 14/10/2016
» A few weeks ago, when we heard Cath Love (Catherine Grossrieder) was in town, we decided we couldn't miss the opportunity to catch up with the Hong Kong-based Thai-Swiss street artist.

Pass the popcorn
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 07/10/2016
» Do you ever just wonder what filmmakers or film critics watch to unwind? Or what was the movie that did wonders for them? Are they all going to be so esoteric, or do some of them love the same stupid films we do? We decided to find out by calling up a variety of local influencers in the industry -- some godly, others up-and-coming but interesting -- and inviting them to speak candidly about films. See which of the following film experts and rookies you could hypothetically have a movie date with, based on their answers to 10 questions.

That one friend
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 09/09/2016
» This week in Guru, we celebrate the oddballs in our lives. Those people we know who are "a little" off-centre, regular commuters on the road less travelled, you know, the unicorns. Every so often, for selfish reasons, we might wish they were a little more "normal", but always immediately after saying that, we eat our words realising the tragedy we've just described. So let's take some time to identify and appreciate the people who entertain us by just being them. Here are nine of the most common weirdos in any Bangkokian social circle.

Guru university
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 22/07/2016
» Sadly, many of you will agree that little of what you learned during your school years is actually proving useful to you at this very moment in your adult life -- especially if you were schooled here. That got us thinking. We’re the experts on practical life in this city. Shouldn’t we be the ones to say what needs to be taught in school, so that future Bangkokian grown-ups can have the savvy start us alumni weren’t privileged enough to have?

Say it with a card
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 01/07/2016
» You know what we need to bring back? Greeting cards. Because look where our laziness to show some love on special occasions has gotten us: three-letter wishes on Facebook. But maybe it's not even our fault. A tacky generic greeting card that has probably been sitting in Central since the 90s isn't that much better than an "HBD". So, we've given greeting and sympathy cards a brutally honest, Bangkok-relevant upgrade. Show some real love, everyone.

Where (Teddy) bears roam
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 20/11/2015
» Located well away from the metropolis along Ratchaphruek Road, Villa de Bear is an expansive seven-rai establishment with its own bedtime back story: Villy, the restaurant's armless black bear mascot, inherited his uncle's Teddy bear factory but was apparently more passionate about spreading joy with food than toys. He turned the factory into a food village, honouring the venue's history by designing thread-, button- and gear-themed dining halls.

Shoe stories
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 10/07/2015
» It’s embarrassing to get caught staring at someone, but we sometimes can’t resist. We just love to look at strangers and guess what type of person they are. To make things a bit less risky, here’s a tip for the judgemental among us. There are several easily identifiable Bangkok stereotypes. All we have to do is look at feet. Here are eight shoe-based personality types.
