Siam Paragon: Impressions

We went to the Siam Paragon mall today, a 300,000 square meter monstrosity (~ 50 football fields). Since I forgot the camera, our good readers will need content themselves with the following observations:

• Threadless shirts were on the rack at several different stores. It's officially over hipsters, time to find a new rag vendor. I suggest shirt.woot.com
  
• BMWs look frumpy when they are being sold next door to Lamborghinis.
• Thai people really know how to watch a movie.
  
• Remember in the 80s when everyone said the Japanese were going to take over? This time it's for real - they've invented the scratch and sniff stuffed doll. Words fail me on this one - try to picture cute anthropomorphized ice cream cones in chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry and you'll get an approximation.
  

We've already resolved on a return trip to gather pictures, until then you'll just have to imagine what an adorable ice cream cone might look and smell like.
