Bars in general I just don’t get, like you want to be outside/in public, with people you don’t know, to buy food that’s double+ what it costs anywhere else, to have like 2oz shots and pretend to be ‘wasted’, the bathroom looks like a highway rest stop, they play bad music, you can watch people who can’t play pool get mad at other people who also can’t play pool…
Oh and places that claim to be ‘clubs’ and just give the illusion of being upscale and exclusive but it’s the same thing behind the veil. A ‘cover charge’ to receive nothing at all? You gotta be out of your mind. Running iTunes on a laptop does not make your music ‘curated’ by ‘DJ Drippin’. And if there’s a ‘dance floor’ it’s all horny stumbling people who think they can dance.
And then you get the bros that are like ‘getting blackout drunk and finding out you plowed 3 chicks is my definition of a great weekend’ like dude you blew $800 last night and there was a pool cue sticking out of your ass when you woke up. Explain how this is so great. ‘it just is bro, you just need to try it, experience it, bro’. Whatever you say, bro.
Everyone I know that wants to drink just hits up Walmart or Costco first, grabs food after, and goes home to chill with said food and liquor. Even when we were the target demographic, just… why.
I go to a bar whenever I’m in another city, easiest way to make quick acquaintances and get the vibe for the place. Heck, I’m drinking less now, so I’d get a non-alcoholic or a mocktail and still have a decent time. It’s not about drinking.

From this I feel like you are afraid to be in oublic because youightdrink too much and sodomise yourself with a pool cue.
You have said a lot about some very specific things that are not that indictative of real life.
This is just from my limited experience, + some friends stories. But lmao, I guess desperate times can call for desperate measures with the pool cue.
