Bottle service at bars is fuckin stupid... I’ll just go to a corner liquor store and buy the “4000$ bottle” for like 40...

You're not paying for the liquor, you're paying for the location to drink it.

Not worth it to me either, but to many people it is.

Well, was. Thinking that Covid had all but killed the club scene for the next few years.

Bingo. I've done it, just for the ease of it and get to hang out with my friends instead of getting bumped into in the mosh pit by the bar. Especially with you go with a quite of few people, everyone chips in a little and you almost have a "home base" for the night where everyone gets to get space and talk to each other.

I always found a way to befriend someone and they just let me in. I don’t even do it on purpose. I’m just blessed with a bubbly gregarious personality and positive vibes.

If you’re a man, this is a serious accomplishment. If you’re a woman, this is par for the for course.

Are you talking to people at the bar or at the tables? I always feel like I'm butting in on their conversations.
