Is Bangkok Becoming Too Sanitized

[joeaverage]

Having been out and about in Thailand and especially bangkok, i have found the nightlife is becoming increasingly disappointing, but i was unable to expalin my dissatisfaction until i found this review which hit it right on the nose.

we went here shortly after it opened and haven't been back since, it is just nice to see someone feels the same way i do.

There are clubs for people of all classes.

Including the seedy low class ones your seeking, look harder just follow the stench.

Not sure if you understand that the snotthenation website is meant to be humorous? A sort of local idiots take on The Onion.

My favourite line

but one thing stays the same: the holocaust of human misery that parades through Bangkok at 5am.

Hilarious

You do know that article is satire - irony - "opposite-land" right?

Long way to go before Bangkok becomes "too clean" like Singapore or Switzerland.

Let us pray that day is never, shall we?

Well, the article does refer to a few places where the OP might find what he is looking for.

Swing, opposite Spicy in Rong Muaeng Soi 5, closes at 10am every morning- crackdown, curfew or Buddhist holiday - pffft it doesn't matter, Swing is OPEN

I have love/hate relationship with the place. On one hand, it uses a tried and tested formula- basically a dark room, a bar, decent Thai DJs (big surprise) and an up-for-it crowd there to dance, drink and party.The atmosphere can be FANTASTIC. On the other, whatever state you may have seen farang in on Lower Sukhumvit at 5am, there is an even lower, scummier, more pissed up, more drug-fueled level of "Urgh" on display at this place.

Gonna leave it to your imagination as to what goes on but word to the wise -IFyou are one of those people who gets aggressive or mouthy when you are wasted or come on too strong with the wrong girl (working or not), you MUST understand there is a VERY real chance that you will be going to hospital.

Yeah I understood it as tongue in cheek humor too ...

Moving to Bangkok Forum.

Satirical article, but still Bangkok related.

No different to London nightlife then.
