When is too old

[Kc_read]

Okay so me and my mates are only 22 yet its 12 and we are calling it quits

Now is it just us or are things going down hill, no club will let us in yet we havent even started to drink. The last comment we got from a bouncer was we are too intense we were fairly merry at this point and jokinh around wirh each other

Sad I did the same bout then too, but I got a new boss, xmas party I was on call but everyone else was sloshed at public crawl and night club, maybe you need either new friends or hit it sober then pissed it on quick lol

 

[moussaka]

Yeah...I'm 23 and I feel waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too old. I haven't been out clubbing in probably years now.

 

[Skelhorn]

I'm 23, have graduated uni and have 2 years experience under my belt. I am married with a daughter and hopefully another one on the way soon....I feel old lol But wouldn't have it any other way!

 

[Grogshla]

take a step back. Calm yourselves. Then realise how dumb this is lol. You guys are in your early 20's what are you worried about. You have way better times to have than going to crappy night clubs. Enjoy your time no matter what you do and if you are getting denied entry then go out earlier get on the drink then leave before it gets over run with younger kids.

haha Im 22,and i sit at home wrapped in a doona watching tv most saturday nights.looking at me and boyfriend drinking coffee,reading the paper...how did i get so domesticated i really dont miss much about the wild nightclubs

Well Im 30 and I was out last night and I had a very good time! I think because we don't go clubbing all the time it makes it better on the odd time we do go! I will say things are very different than when I was 22 and going out. I find people are a lot more rude. Im from the school that if you knock into someone and they drop there drink you replace it, or if you hold a door open for someone they say thank you. Never see that anymore!!!

I wont mention my age,but nightclubs are nothing but a meat market. Drunken men saying 'where have you been all my life' slurring words. I would rather stay home,or go out to a friends birthday party and party with just friends,i would feel a lot safer there and i wouldnt have to worry about things being slipped into my drink.

 

[moussaka]

I didn't say I regretted it!

 

[Snake-Supplies]

Clubs are stupid anyway....

 

[Jeannine]

if you were a little intense then you cant blame the clubs for not allowing you in, they had no idea if you were going to cause trouble and its also possible you may have been the best behaved patrons in the club that night

however they owe a duty of care to the staff members and patrons not to mention they can be held accountable if you get too drunk and something happens, also they are NOT allowed to serve 'drunk' patrons anymore alcohol

you will have to think about it from their perspective, they have so much to lose

The last place we went to was where one of my best mates work as a bouncer, i stood out front talking to him about 30 mins before heading in. We get to the id scanner and nope person there was on a war path. We walked out quietly and that was it. The problem in perth is apparantly every young person is out to start a fight because thats what ACA says we do in the first two years of of clubbing solidly every weekend and sometimes wednesdays aswell i saw probably 4-5 fights but that was people outside the clubs.
The problem is they dont let people in so they sit outside fuming eventually you get enough upset people that the fights start. Theres half as many people inside as there is outside these days

And yes we have decided thats it from now on we are gonna frequent the local bar

Im from the school that if you knock into someone and they drop there drink you replace it, or if you hold a door open for someone they say thank you. Never see that anymore!!!

Now if you hold the door open you struggle to make it through the door yourself because of the stampede of people who who see the opportunity of an easy entry and before you know it 20 people have passed throughout he door you politely opened. I frequently use a secure multi story carpark there are only 5 levels I'll start of down the stairs while my wife with pram will use the elevator. I waited for the doors to open twice and became concerned when my wife didn't come out, so started making my way back up the stairs only to find my missus struggling with the help of a kind gentlemen to lug the pram down the stairs. The doors had opened 4 times and each time the lift was full not a single person offered to swap and take the stairs.
Yes people are definitely less considerate.

im 21 and i havent been out clubbing for almost 12 months. and i think i was forced along last time. id rather sit around at a friends place around the bbq/fire surrounded by my amazing friends then out at the clubs with drunken losers

i dont drink when im out either which makes things all the more crap.

 

[SteveNT]

I have a beer with the snakes on the balcony. Better conversations than I ever had at a club.

 

[Kitah]

I'm 22 turning 23 and have never even been in a club

There is something you are not telling us. You don’t get denied entry to a club due to your age if you are over 18.

I think I went clubbing twice. The first place I ordered a coke and held out a five dollar note and never saw any change. In those days, a coke across the bar at the local was a maximum of 60c. So I refused to drink anything for the rest of the evening. Stone cold sober all I can say is the place was a dead loss – all about people trying to make an image and not trying to genuinely relate to others. The second time was no different but I made sure I didn’t get ripped off with my drink.

I have had so much more fun at pubs, with mates and meeting ladies and dancing to the band. Just super casual, laid back, here for a good time, and have a few a drinks into the bargain. You dance yourself silly, if though you don’t really know how to dance, and you sit down and talk to people and make new friends. You might even get lucky and get laid. There is none of this posturing crap you that you get at clubs.

Occasionally you might drink too much. The pub staff used to simply ask your mates to take you home. I personally didn’t get to that stage too often. What I can say, is I never enjoyed being drunk. But I sure as hell enjoyed myself getting there.

I think you need to change the venues you attend and ensure that you do not end up off your face when you do go out.
