chancy

went to a club for my friend's b-day on saturday. i really loved the music, but a few things got on my nerves during the evening. and so, because complaining is so much fun (we all have to once in awhile =P), here is a listing of My Issues With Clubs.

1. The Club Hook-Up. I dont understand why anyone would want to get picked up in a club. Think about it: youre letting a guy touch all your special places/ youre feeling up a girl in all her special places, and you only know each others first names and whether you come there often. Wheres the magic of getting to know someone and then slowly building up to that awesome moment when your lips finally meet for the first time? Maybe Im just sentimental. One of my friends there has just broken up with her b/f of 7 years, and she started dancing with this guy, and they hung out the rest of the night and he bought her a drink, but didnt touch her. So on the way home shes like, he must be gay!! Im like, ohmigod, you meet a nice, respectful guy who enjoyed dancing with you and didnt violate you, and you think hes GAY?! But this is an example of how shes using the wrong things to make her feel good about herself, ie. she wants to have a fling so shell feel attractive and sexy (after 7 years with the same guy, I can see where shes coming from), meanwhile shell end up feeling worthless.

2. The Bathroom Attendant. Theres paper towel dispensers all over the bathroom, but the only one thats full is the one right beside the attendant, and shes ripping off sections and folding them beside her, so if you dont want to leave with sopping wet hands you have to ask. And tip. I have to pay to dry my hands. Arent there laws against this or something?! Dont I have a right to cleanliness?

3. The High Heel/ Short Skirt. Yes, Ill admit it, high heels do look good. But I am not causing myself (permanent) back and foot pain to impress anyone. High heels are a medieval instrument of torture. Men, if youre disagreeing right now, ask yourself if YOU would wear those things all day, nevermind 4 hours. I thought so. As for short skirts, theyve gotten disgustingly short. If I cant bend over without flashing my goods, forget it. Now, the high heel/ short skirt combo was really popular. Why do women do this to themselves? They put themselves into positions where they cant run, can hardly walk even, cant bend over, can't move. Apparently deep down inside we all really want to be Barbie. I wore jeans and running shoes.

4. The Bouncer. Losers that desperately need to get over themselves. Creating unnecessary line ups outside, and acting all macho inside the club. We paid extra to get into this lounge upstairs, and you could go back and forth between the lounge and the main floor with a stamp they put on your hand. Of course, the stamp washes off SUPER easy, and when we were trying to all go back upstairs the bouncer wouldnt let one of my friends, cause her stamp was gone. I mean, OBVIOUSLY if we all have stamps and shes with us, then hers washed off, but they make this huge scene and are yelling at us and I wanted to smash ones face in. They eventually let her up but the stress was very, very uncool.

i really would never go to clubs if i didn't love to dance so much.
