Everyone loves a bit of fun on their night out, and I personally find this totally acceptable. Keep the drinks flowing and the lights off and get drunk and dance. Do whatever drugs you want, blah blah, we’re young, you know the drill. Yeah, going out is great. But come on boys, how fucked are you when you’re talking to a girl? You’ve gotta be smart if you’re too drunk and pick one that is also too drunk so she won’t care what you’re saying.
Break ups suck. They cause a lot of pain and heartache, and basically your whole life changes (whether it’s for better or worse). I like to think most would do the mature thing and either go their separate ways or remain friends. But a lot of people get really immature and bitchy towards their ex and declare a never ending war on them.
Bouncers seem to have a bad reputation. Most of us have an anecdote that depicts bouncers in a less than flattering light. But when you think about it, they’ve got a pretty difficult job and have to put up with a lot of shit. Whereas there are cases of bouncers being completely in the wrong, if we were to take on their role, it wouldn’t be long before we began to empathise with their position.
How friggin’ frustrating is it when two of your buddies are each hosting a party on the same night! Argh! You like both friends, but you know it’ll probably be difficult to go to both, or at least somewhat awkward in that you go to one party then leave it to go to another. (Though I guess you could always call yourself this huge party animal for going to two parties in one night, woot woot!).
Caitlan recently gave some great tips on how to plan a girls’ night out, and so it seemed fitting to follow-up with what to wear and not to wear on a night out. When going clubbing, you want to have a great night, listen to some music, spend plenty of time on the dance floor with your girls, and just generally feel good. If you’re feeling in the mood to club, then you also want to look good, right? Right.
Let’s pretend your night out is a winding road through an area you don’t know very well. Occasionally, street signs pop up telling you where you are and how fast you should be traveling. You ignore these signs though, because #yolo. Also you have iMaps. You think you know where you are, but it starts to get very dark and you’re getting awfully tired.
A make-out spot seems to be anywhere these days. Gone are the bed and lounge being the ideal places to plant a pash. Bring on the kitchen benchtop, the beach and even the bathroom. But is sneaking a dirty romp in a nightclub bathroom taking it one step too far? Below are a few reasons why shagging in the bathroom should be kept for at-home only activities.
No matter how many clubs we claim we party hard at, we all have a favourite club that we go to on most weekends and know the place like the back of our hands, from the decor, the songs played, and even what the condom machine looks like in the toilet (if you’re a boy anyway). In short, you’ve become a regular.
We’ve all had mates who left the club a bit earlier than expected, sometimes way earlier. Depending on what time you leave, your mates will either groan at you for going so early, or if it’s late enough, they’ll understand and say bye. But eventually we all have to leave the club sometime (even if it’s at the bouncer’s less than subtle insistence).
It happens to everyone. One minute you’re having the best time dancing away with your friends when suddenly, in the corner of your eye, you spot your ex lover or friend. That one person who will manage to ruin your night just by looking at them. How dare they be in your club. How dare they dance where you dance. They shouldn’t be allowed in, right? Wrong.
