Why do people go clubbing ?

I dont get it either. I would never waste money on it. Like you actually have to pay an entrance fee lmao. I just go to gigs.

I've never understood the purpose of this phenomenon. People attend sessions called 'pre-drinks' where they consume some amount of alcohol whilst playing drinking games. By the time they get to the club they're under the influence of alcohol and so do not entirely act on their own accord, nor do they remember many of the events that night

Upon arrival, more alcoholic beverages are purchased and attendees simply dance aimlessly for the whole night possibly hooking up with strangers and having intercourse that night without having any emotional attraction for eachother, some are even 'friends' before this, and remain as such post events. This is considered normal among a lot of young adults.

What is the point of intoxicating yourself to such levels, that leave you incapable of making decisions correctly, and amnesic. It's an expensive feat that bares no benefit whatsoever, it isn't like you can recall the night and say "that was a good night".

Now for those who might ask how I know this, I have lived on campus for 2 and a half years now, and have house mates who tell me what happens.

What happened to the days where going out involved going to places of interest, playing football with mates, going out for a meal, going to theme parks, sleep overs, watching movies, going ice skating, etc . This is not to say these don't happen anymore, they do of course, but no where near as much as "clubbing".

I asked my house mates why they go clubbing, they said they do it to fit in... sounds pretty pathetic in my opinion.

What are your thoughts on this ?

I hate it, I'd rather have a natter with my friends in my pjs rather than getting dressed up to get perved on at a club tbh lol

This is how I feel.

I wouldn't mind clubbing if it wasn't so risky...

Risky?

Sounds lame but I used to go just to maintain my friendships and because you have good drunken laughs before and after. The actual act itself is kind of rubbish.

Did you feel like if you did not go, you would have lost your friends ?

I think they mean sexual assault?

And the award for talking absolute bull**** goes to ...

You should try going with some girls for a night out then, it's fun and talking with the opposite sex never hurt anybody.
