Like with any traditional pastime, there are certain unspoken do’s and don’ts. Drinking is no exception. This comprehensive list has been compiled to help prevent you breaching the laws and to help recognise breaches by drinking establishments.
There are lots of different types of bars around. This means anyone can feel at home somewhere. But what happens when someone ventures into unfamiliar territory?
These are the most commonly considered out of place people at bars and clubs:
Because gender inequality needs to tip in the favour of females sometimes.
Not really. Well yes, but girls can do lots of things that are socially unacceptable for boys (without questioning their sexual orientation/macho-ness), like wear skirts and put glitter stickers on our faces and freak out about horoscopes and stuff.
In a way, the ‘bro code’ works for men and women, however, women usually use the term ‘hoes before bros’. The bro code are like golden rules followed by your fellow mates. For men it could mean, ‘You can’t sleep with my ex-girlfriend’, and for women it’s more along the lines of, ‘You can’t talk or even look at my ex-boyfriend’. Yikes!
I’ve always been told that I seem much older than 18. Many of my friends from uni were absolutely shocked to know that I was only 18 and they thought I was kidding. I’ve always hung out with older people; always being the youngest, I didn’t really have a choice. I have an older sister, I have older friends (my best friend is 20) and even my partner is 3 and a half years older than me.
In the wake of Triple J’s ‘Twenty Years of the Hottest 100’, I decided that it was an ideal time to recap some of the golden songs that have defined the nightclubbing scene over the past twenty years.

That’s right, love is no longer the battlefield. The physical pain of clubbing, in my books, has over taken the wounds of love. Yes, love hurts, but has love ever kicked you in the foot while wearing ten shot heels? Has love ever elbowed you in the tit or punched you in the face? Poked an eye out?
Brisbane‘s first real rooftop bar has opened and it doesn’t disappoint. Well, if you want to get blind drunk and have a messy night, it’s probably going to disappoint - it’s not that kind of place. Elixir Rooftop Bar is all class. Plus, it’s up three flights of stairs, so you really want your wits about you if you’re wearing heels.
When we’re in high school, we can’t wait for the day we turn 18 so we can finally leave that hellhole and go clubbing every weekend. But after a decade of hard partying and drinking, there’s one particular party that will really grab your party veteran attention: your high school reunion. Circle of life stuff right here; you’ve gone back to school!
It’s the age old question of why do girls take so many photos of themselves. Isn’t one enough? (Um…no).
I guess it comes down to the fact that most girls are insecure and taking photos of themselves is a way to heighten their self esteem.
