We all know that Australia reaches ridiculous heat in the summer time. Nights are muggy and hot and nightclubs are worse with sweat dripping from every part of the human body. It’s almost impossible to keep cool when clubbing in summer, but we sure as hell are going to try.
Perhaps more cemented into your psyche by movies than reality, you will at least have heard of the sad, lonely old drunk who still hangs out at bars though they are only a few years away from retiring, maybe even a nursing home. I know this is such a huge stereotype, but after meeting certain types of people, it makes you realise there’s a reason stereotypes exist.
No doubt the biggest event of the year is coming up. You’ll need a place to go, a new outfit and of course a breath mint for the inevitable midnight kiss, whoever it may be with. They say that the way your spend New Years Eve is a reflection of how you’ll spend your whole year, so it best be something amazing!
Two months after having to vote who would win the Budweiser People’s Choice Award, giving one talented and very lucky act the chance to strut their musical stuff, the winner has been announced: Thankyou City!
I’m not sure how many of us can truly say we ‘remember’ our initiation into the nightclub scene, but a lot of us would agree that we found the chaotic atmosphere of pumping fists and paralytic aggression a lot more intimidating than we do now. The city awash with scrapping dudes and sloppy gals at 3am is certainly an eye opener and when you’ve missed the nightrider and lost your phone the daunting sensation of your first-time comes flooding back.
Though many consider pick up lines to be lame and old fashioned, they’re still used and get mixed reactions, usually ones of laughter at the guy’s expense. But pick up lines are more likeable, or at least slightly less sleazy, when there’s a theme to it. Christmas time is a happy time of year, one that puts everyone in high spirits. With Christmas cheer in the air, such enthusiasm will increase a guy’s confidence to chat up girls.
Tis the season to be jolly, and by jolly I mean drunk and stupid. Over the year, you’ve flirted with that hottie at work, and they may have even flirted back. Unless you two have progressed already at some point between January and November, December is when you can finally make something happen.
Any Brisbanites thinking of going out clubbing this weekend and then getting a taxi home? Before heading out, you’ll want to read the following as it relates to you having to get a cabbie to agree to take you home after a night out drinking. Research conducted by cab booking app company GoCatch has recently revealed the tricks Brisbane cabbies do in determining who they will give a lift home late at night and who they will avoid.
Ahhh Christmas. A time when families come together and try to resolve fights and differences for a holiday that has been commercialised. Whether it’s Christmas lunch at your nan’s or crazy aunty’s, or a fabulous dining experience on the harbour, let’s face it; you’re going to want to drink just to get through it.
Often when you go out with a group of buddies, there’s usually one person who won’t be drinking that night, or at least not too much. While it’s of course their choice to drink or not to drink, do they have to act so arrogant about it?
