Backpackers in Thailand: Full Moon Parties – “a Trashy Disgrace�

[Pattaya One]

Full Moon partygoer, neither trashy nor a disgrace.... (phanagist.com)

There have been some interesting developments in the screenplay for our Thailand backpacker movie, "Bangkok or Bust", which I will write about in more detail soon, but for now, I was interested to recently read a related, thundering article in TIME World that said Thailand's Full Moon parties had "degenerated into a modern-day Gomorrah of tawdry overindulgence" and were a "trashy disgrace."

Another pint of Gomorrah please (cindyfan.com)

I have edited this interesting, if somewhat melodramatically written, blowhard article and added photos above and below for illustration.

gotta agree, 5 years ago, i did the backpacker thing through europe and while i met some great people the majority were such tight asses  and couldnt afford fuck all yet complained about every little detail, couldnt see anyone appreciating them as clients, maybe thats why accom. prices are so high in KPG? dont blame them, fucken disrespectful animals most of them, i cant see me doing a full moon party again in a hurry

Did anyone else read the title as Barebackers in Thailand?

Or is it just my sick and twisted mind.
