I don't like clubbing. Am I too weird?
I just don't get the point in wearing revealing clothes in cold weather, playing stupid drinking games, paying £3-5 to enter a place where I'll experience temporary hearing loss, risk losing my jacket, have a few guys grope my ass and pretend that I am having fun until my friends finally decide to leave. I'd much rather go to a local pub to drink and chat with my friends or have a cosy night in to watch movies or something. Am I just weird? :/

No, you're not weird. Lots of people feel exactly the same.

Culturally, a lot of people seem to view it as a "rite of passage". Some like it, some don't. Personally, I'd much rather go to a pub and have lulz instead of going to a place where I can barely hear anyone yell my name due to Skrillex being played at quadrillion decibels.

This.
The weird part is whenever I tell someone how I feel about clubbing they agree with me, yet they still go to clubs at least once or twice a week. I don't mind clubs if they are reserved for special occasions (e.g. post-exams, birthdays) but apart from that I just find them pointless.

Because there are a lot of people who enjoy it. Being in the minority when it comes to liking something doesn't make you weird.

Even on "special occasions" I still find them utterly pointless. I don't enjoy spending my time there, so why would I go? Whenever friends try to entice me on a night out, I always ask where they're going. If they want to go clubbing, I deny them my company. They may find it fun, but not everybody enjoys the same thing.
I'm usually met by "Yeah but it's fun!"
Ok:
A) I hate dancing. To me, it's completely redundant. Firstly, I cannot dance. So straight off the bat, it's the equivalent of me entering a tennis tournament despite being unable to play. Secondly, I don't enjoy it. At all.
B) If I go out drinking, I want to go drinking. Not questioning my decision to leave the house due to being in a hostile environment.
C) Money. Beer costs a fortune in a club because they generally favour cheap spirits. Not only that, but paying to get in? Weeeeeak.
D) The music. I loathe it, it's totally not my scene.
So when my friends ask me if I want to go clubbing with them, what they're actually asking is "do you want to go to a place you don't like to spend all your money doing something you don't like while listening to music you don't like?" They then have the audacity to look almost offended when I say no.

Well that wasn't something a Katatonia fan would normally say

Slim chance of pulling a girl for the guys, chance to let loose for the girls.
Almost everyone agrees that clubbing is ****e in general, but it serves purposes .
