Imm World Samrong. Indeed a wonderful alternative shopping experience. Well worth a look and a wander around to see just how the other half lives and trades.Stil love wandering around the place.

Ah, the life of a vlogger, you seem to have attracted copycats, who would have thought, Imperial World goes viral on the net. Brilliant place, long may it stand, I remember tbv you seemed to think we were taking the p**s before when we mentioned it, .

Brilliant place, long may it stand, I remember tbv you seemed to think we were taking the p**s before when we mentioned it, . I am trying to remember back, I just remember thinking as I past it down there "oh another mall in Bangkok" without taking notice of its obvious old school charm. I don't think anyone is copying me, I get about 100 views per vid. If youtube would ever promote my channel, which i highly doubt, i do think it would be doing the average tourist a big favor. Seriously, how many rich white kids can we watch going to chatuchak and get 1 million views?! I now need to go to Mall Bangkapi as I remember you recommended it as well.

^^^^, , such modesty, I dont know how you tube analytics work, but I have never seen Samrong or Imperial World on you tube before, you go on, and now others are appearing after you posted. The Mall Bang Kapi is ok on the ground floor, make sure to get the fish, and if you are lucky, you might get the birds in full squak mode, upstairs its the usal botox clinics, fat knacker weight reduction shops,and overpriced hairdresser salons, 1500 baht for a haircut, you are lucky, an 80 baht buzzcut at the local barbers is all you need, . Its whats beside it, right next door, Tawana Square, , how the other half shop, right across the road, via the walkways, N Mark Plaza and Happyland Centre, frequented by Burmese, Laos and Cambodians, no HiSo bkk elite would ever be seen in any of them, for fear of losing face. No offence, I think your mrs would love it. PS if you are lucky, you might bump into a bkk vlogging legend (not me), love the guy, tells it like it is.

Youtube analytics works just like you would expect something designed by the rich and powerful to work... it keeps the top 1% snowballing growth at the top and everybody else gets bent over.

Why isn’t his mrs questioning the price?

. Be aware people, that is not the normal price for a tooth extraction in Thailand, 500 to 600 baht is plenty, why didnt his mrs question the price, this is what p**ses me off, idiots like this guy, the suckers will take this as gospel.

I am in a judgmental mood.......... I watched a large part of the video and ............ well, so many things are wrong.
1. Whether 500-600 baht (that's what, AUD 25-30, or USD 15-20, or UK 10-15??) Why extract a tooth today, unless it is irreparably damaged? When we pull out our teeth, we lose bone density blah blah , and the jaw starts to shrink over time, gum tissue pulls back and other healthy teeth are impacted etc. Long story short, it's why folks with dentures find they have to be replaced after a few years and why they fall out of the mouth. I would be leery of a place that charges such a low price, even if I was paying 2X that for farang, as they have to cut their costs somewhere. A proper autoclave and cleaned equipment costs money. Somehow I have this image of the "dentist" using equipment that still has the previous Somchai's tissue and blood attached. The restaurant workers don't even wash their hands after visiting the toilet. Mind you, it's not as if most of those places have soap in the washrooms.......
2. Is it me, or does that "lady" leave the impression that she might have been a he before transitioning?
3. As for the guy interviewed who just retired, ok like seriously, that's way to much hair and beard colouring. No one that age has jet black hair colour like that unless its from the 7-11 packet (or for you swooshing vain continental types, Miss Clairol). And like Whoa, what's up with all the bling? the 1990's called and vanilla Ice and Choclaty Choc want their bling bling back.
When people post vlogs they must be prepared for grouchy people reviews like mine.

I would obviously resort to a mathew modine style karate chop move followed by tee nai? to find it
This could happen. Wait, is that actually it in the video and the guy just could not get in there with the dogs?
