Clubbing.
There’s something about clubbing that I don’t like. I know I mentioned this a few times before, but I’ll say it again. I would have to think that it brings out the worst in me — or, well I wouldn’t say worst, but definitely not the best of what I would have to offer. I think clubbing is one of my guilty pleasures, because I enjoy doing it at the moment, but I would feel guilty afterwards that I danced with X amount of guys and made a specific impression for others whom were watching those explicit dance moves.
Do I really want to come off as a hoebag?
No, not really.
You only get to make a first impression once. Grinding explicitly, having a drink in hand and looking totally shit faced is SO not attractive.
There’s a persona that I am always reaching for, which I probably shouldn’t mention because then people whom personally know me will have a mindset that I will try very hard to become that persona. I mean, we all grow out of clubbing sooner or later, so I took the initiative to cut it out of my life in the early stages. Was never that interested, and never will be.
I prefer formals, balls, meetings, philosophical talks over tea. No? I see some of you shaking your heads and disagreeing. So xangans, what’s the deal with clubbing? What are your perspectives? Let me hear you express your undying love for clubbing, I want to know.

I’m with you on this. I despise clubbing.
i dont get it. you say it like it’s a bad thing to grind w/complete strangers? o___0 preposterous!
im still waiting for you to play me a song!
haha
I prefer the same things as you over clubbing. For me, it’s fun sometimes to go clubbing with friends when you’re in the mood for it. It’s like, man, I haven’t been clubbing in a while, let’s go check it out after this string of tests. Oh, and then there’s the MAC clubbing event where you get so much free MAC cosmetics (and the cover was just $10 from what I remember). Plus, you can check out for hot people… cuz people always look better in the dark! J/j.
i completely agree with you.
I agree too. I mean it really is fun at the moment, but when you wake up the next morning, and you have to deal with your friends making fun of you for grinding low on some creeper, or embarassing pictures surfacing that you would rather keep buried. But at the same time, clubbing is good when you’re going with a big group of girls, or friends just to dance in a group, have fun, and drink responsibly. So I think the biggest con is just drinking too much alcohol and doing stuff you regret.
i once went to a club on valentine’s day. i think there were 300 guys and 20 girls in there. that was so bad it was funny.
i love going with friends, just hanging out or g-walking and getting my groove on. plus people watching is fun! i’ve never seen the point of sitting at a small table and paying $500 for a bottle of champagne (which is why i’ve never done it). as hot and fun as it probably would be, i wouldn’t really want to be tellin’ my kids that me and wifey hooked up at a club on our first night out.
higher on my list than clubbing to club… concerts at intimate venues, eating great food at any restaurant w/ a friend, coffee-magazine-ipod-pen&paper.
I used to love clubbing. Talk to the owner, bypass the line, and walk in like you own the place. Flash the sly smile with the music pulsing in the background behind you. It was the best. It’s like someone’s playing a soundtrack to pay homage to just how funky-fresh-fly you can be.
Walk up to the bar, buy 10 shots for you and your friends, flash another quick smile to the hot bartender so she knows who you are…and end up doing shots w/ her later. It’s a sub-culture that i miss dearly. Unfortunately also a sub-culture limited to the young and single.
i just love getting tipsy =D and dancing with my friends!!!
i hate clubbing in toronto because of how expensive it is..but in loo…omg so cheap … clubs are walking distance, drinks 2.50 all the time… cover is minimal..at most $2… i could spend 20 bucks in waterloo and get tipsy… in toronto i wouldn’t even get a drink AHAHA
I love clubbing but my friends are losers and won’t go with me.
I like to dance alone though. No touching.
i’ve only gone clubbing once hehe. i liked it cuz i went with my friends and we had an awesome time
i think i’d feel really uncomfortable in one of those classy, pretentious clubs though :/ i’ll be going to inside this fri, and i heard asian clubs have bad atmosphere..but at least my friends are going so i’m sure i’ll have a good time!
mm… i hope i don’t give off the wrong impression when i’m dancing with my bf…but… he is my bf so maybe i don’t come off looking like a ho..hahha
