    I remember seeing an english girl trying to blag her way in with a bottle of her own beer. She told the "security" that nobody would notice because her bottle looked like the ones being sold inside!

    Another permanent fixture are the Indians who tell you that your face is lucky then offer to read your fortune.....for a fee of course.

    ^ My last:

    He: Your face is lucky.

    Me: And yours is not.

    He: I can read your fortune!

    Me: I can read yours too. It says you're not getting any of my money.

    First went there later than you did, in 1994. I remember Khao San as one road. Another off-shoot nearby. Both were small and less packed.

    I went back in 2002 out of curiosity and it was kind of depressing. Much larger area. A micocosm place. Got hit up for change by a guy in his 20s with a North American accent.

    I have not been back since.

    I prefer to stay on Sukhumvit.

    Full of modern style travellers. They vape, blog, haggle, sit in starbucks and have credit cards. Some have those modern day trendy beards.

    'McBackpackers'

    But they still wear the costume. Fishermans pants & flipflops

    I've been there a few times. It is an experience anyway that one mustn't miss if visiting for the first time.
    I've never stayed on Khao San, but nearby.

    You can get anything on Khao san. Took a video once for my brother. I knew it was his type of place... Hippy, chilled out, and crazy all at once. Had my birthday on Khao San a long time ago with a Thai gf. Met a few Ajarn members there as well. Excellent memories.

    I hate those hipster fuckers more than dirty smelly wogs Saw one daft tart get out of a taxi at central Rama 2 with a fuking dog in a basket. No other taxi wanted to take her which was a bit surprising as her tits were hanging out of her ethnic dress, though ethnics would not been seen dead in one. In the end she asked me if I could speak Thai and I asked her where she wanted to get to, nearly laughed at the answer Cambodia! she had just come from Hua Hin and he had dropped her off here 'in the middle of nowhere' When I told her no chance of getting a taxi from here she was a bit put out as it said on the internet you could. Would not get a bus so I packed her off in a taxi to victory monument, which she had never heard of. Plonks herself down in the front seat with her tits hanging out, no bra, no wonder some of them end up in trouble. She claimed Cambodia was 'awesome', hope the dog made it anyway.

    The only time I went to KSR was to look at this lot, 1,000's of old and mostly mint 78's hidden away.

    Place is just a pastiche of itself, getting more and more khoasan roady each year I would think. But, when all said and done, you can have a decent night out there occasionally, but would never stay there.

    Hahah! You see all kinds really. There are some good places to eat along Rambuttri road. I like to sit out front and watch all the people and fun with a few Chang. I also get my hair highlighted near there.

    ^^As in the McDonaldisation and Starbuckfacebook colonisation of this world.
    Most backpackers nowadays aren't the Lonely Planet clutching pot luck down to earth types relying on their wits and map reading skills.

    Todays ones are often ignorant, patronising, know-it-all types who deserve a good slap .....

    Yeah, I hear you. I tend to stay away from that area nowadays. I saw it a few times and that is enough. The people are so loud, in your face and downright gross (tattoos all over , etc). I tend to stay in Sukhumvit area and last time was at the Mercure near MBK (expensive though). I travel more in style these days. lol. I'd rather splurge on a nice place then have to put up with the noise from the backpackers.

    Pity about the skin wallpaper. She'd be a lot more attractive without the ink. Oh well...we were all once young and stupid probably.

    Well good luck to them - both have very similar noses, so I guess they are brother and sister as well as lovers. From the Bible Belt in the US of A, then ran away together to live their depraved love filled life together, but being murkin, they didn't realise they needed work permits and the like so once they ran out of money, and realising that she is too ugly to sell her arse (except to Indians) they reverted to busking and begging. Their sign, For Freedom (freedom for bro and sis to fuck each other) Peace (peace and quiet from their mom dad and other relatives trying to get a piece of the action) and Love - that most forbidden love. WE can close the case on this tragic story and move on... nothing to see here apart from a couple of depraved disgusting freaks. They will join TD soon no doubt.
