Where: Mellow, Clouds, St. Regis Bar, Zuma, Falabella, The Bar & The Restaurant and Grease.
Most likely to overhear them say:
Guys: “Do you know who my dad is?”
Girls: “Oh my God, her Chanel is so a fake.”
Most likely to fight over: A parking spot for their BMW.
Soundtrack: Everything from a live band doing popsanova covers of Thai and inter hits to some groovy house from DJs, just so long as it’s at the right place and price.
Drink: Overpriced Johnnie Walker Black Label to drink with even more overpriced mixers. Prosecco, Chandon and beer? Oh, please!
Who: Channel [V] VJ Pita Na Patalung, makeup artist Peary Pie, publishing heir Dan Hetrakul
The Gen-Y HipstersWhere: Moose, Badmotel, WTF and Fat Bird
Most likely to overhear them say:
Guys: “I sold my fixie to buy a turntable.” Girls: “Yeah, I know Two Door Cinema Club are coming in November, but they’ve gone mainstream now.”
Most likely to fight over: Whose favorite band has less likes on Facebook or plays on YouTube.
Soundtrack: ZudRangma's rare retro selections, ironic 80s-90s tunes, and those super underground bands you’ve probably never heard of.
Drink: Cocktails with a faux working class attitude, like Bad Company at Badmotel (home-made ya dong served on a wooden tray with honey and pickled grape) or the cute and tasty Yellow Submarine at Moose, served in a jam jar (of course). Failing that, nothing disaffectedly utters “now” like an American craft beer.
Who: Cartoonist Kathy MacLeod, WTF's Somrak Sila, party boy Note Dudesweet, rocker Tul Apartmentkhunpa and DJ Maft Sai

Who: Maggie Choo's Ashley Sutton, Bed Supperclub's Sanya Souvannaphouma and Cafe Chili's Rica Dila
The Post-NaewWhere: Play Yard By Studio Bar, Ari, Popular Society or any little café down on Phra Artit or Khaosan.
Most likely to overhear them say:
Guys: “I saw the band play at Stone Free. They were so poetic and emotional, and the guitarist was something special. It’s an injustice that our society does not recognize such spell-binding talents. Can I have your Line?”
Girls: “I wish they served Singha at Toys R' Us.”
Most likely to fight over: Which Instagram filter most creatively captures the evening’s joie de vivre.
Soundtrack: Live music from local up-and-coming unsigned indie bands playing their own stuff. No covers.
Drink: Anything cheap, from local beers in big bottles or 3-liter towers; bottles of Sangsom, 100 Pipers or JW Red Label to share.
Who: Pok Stylish Nonsense, Two Million Thanks and Yellow Fang's Preawa
Where: Not confined to any single place, but determined to follow their beloved party organizers like Trasher, Dudesweet or Club Soma to the ends of the earth. And end the night at Wong's.
Most likely to overhear them say:
Guys: “I'd shag him.”
Girls: “I'd shag him.”
Most likely to fight over: The good looking boy who no one saw arrive with his boyfriend.
