As it's lunch time..
I went for a meal about ten years ago at an Italian place near Brentford for my brother-in-laws birthday. At the end of the meal a few people started buying rounds of sambuca shots for the table (around 16 people). After a couple of these we decided to join in and buy a round. This was no the smartest decision ever. Still love sambuca though.

What's the most you ever spent on a meal out, where was it and was it worth it?

Alt: Mosh pits. A great laugh or complete waste of a gig ticket?
(I helped save b3ta! Bill Clay a.k.a. Claudio, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:36, 183 replies, latest was 14 years ago)
I can't be bothered to answer either of these questions...

If indeed they are questions

(I helped save b3ta! sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:48, Reply)
I've never spent a huge amount on a meal
But rounds of drinks have set me back quite a large amount before, I remember a £45 one a while ago, that wasn't enjoyable.

Alt: I really enjoy them, but it's all down to whether or not you get the arseholes doing jump kicks in the middle. 90% of people in the pits know the etiquette, but the 10% seem determined to ruin it for everyone else.
(I helped save b3ta! Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:39, Reply)
What is the etiquette?
Out of interest, like.
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:41, Reply)
Someone falls down, you pick them up
Don't pull/push/drag in anyone who doesn't want to be in there.
What happens in there, stays in there (i.e. Don't attack someone after the gig.)
Don't wear spiked jewellry.
Don't aim to hurt someone in particular.

They're the main ones, but I'm sure there are likely others.

EDIT: Also, fairly obvious ones, as pointed out by Kroney - Not punching people in the face, not kicking people

There is an etiquette??

(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:42, Reply)
Not punching people in the face, not kicking people, that sort of thing.
And, in one noteable instance, not having ball bearings woven into your hair whilst helicoptering wildly.

Edit: Please assume I've placed the above response under Stunned's post, and the following under yours:

Yes.

Ta.

(I helped save b3ta! Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:45, Reply)
That one was in a club in Southampton. I went to visit a friend when I saw that one.
He tells me that the next week she'd added razor blades to it.

Mosh pits can be fun and part of that fun is how rough they are, but I don't understand the desire of some people to actually maim others.
(I helped save b3ta! Kroney, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:50, Reply)
I've never understood that either
Some of my more recent gigs have just been dangerous, I got elbowed hard in the eye at one a few months back, that was a bit of a shock, as I'd been in there for rough 0.5 seconds when it hit. The guy just moved off, didn't say a word.

On the other hand, seeing Carcass a few years back, one guy was running, stumbled, and smacked me (hard), in the face. I think only adrenaline kept me standing, any other time he'd have knocked me on my arse. He immediately apologised, asked if I was OK, and offered to buy me a pint.

The stuff people think they can get away with is outrageous
I know a girl that made the mistake of wearing a skirt in one once.

She didn't make that mistake again and didn't go into another mosh pit, either.

I donno, I doubt I've ever spent more than £35/head on a meal out, but considering I don't really drink, it doesn't supprise me.
The resturant next door does chatouxbriend for £55 with bernayze sauce and real chips It's £55 and for two. Plus they do cocktails.

All I need is someone special to go there with.

I don't really 'do' gigs, I can't imagine me enjoying a mosh pit, seems a bit pushy and shovey, why would someone want to do that to someone else? I'm looking forward to Will Young's new album, true story.

Wine's a total killer. Especially when you have the habit of drinking nice wine as though it were 'bena

(I helped save b3ta! sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 12:53, Reply)
I don't see the point in that, why do you drink ribena more quickly than wine? Because it tastes nicer.
Ergo, just have ribeena instead, and if you want to get drunk, then add some vodka or whatever to it.
(I helped save b3ta! G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:20, Reply)
No, you drink Ribena because it's nicer than water.
Ribena doesn't taste nicer than wine. You drink it more quickly because it doesn't have any alcohol in it and you're therefore less likely to fall over and vomit.
(I helped save b3ta! Kroney, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:30, Reply)
also, soft drinks are for quenching thirst a lot of the time

(I helped save b3ta! Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:32, Reply)
I use beer for that.

(I helped save b3ta! Kroney, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:33, Reply)
It's naturally to want to consume as much of something you find pleasent than something you don't.
If you didn't get drunk on alchole, you still would sip wine rather than drink it, because the taste isn't as pleasureable to ribeena.... the fact that you have quite a few swallows of ribeena between each putting-it-to-your-mouth is indictive of wanting to consume more; ergo, it's nicer tasting.
(I helped save b3ta! G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:54, Reply)
wine isn't less pleasurable
it's different. you savour the taste in a completely different way.

I know you've probably covered all this, but I'm allergic to weddings and so will not have read it.

On a side note, I was genuinely surprised at how ha4rd it was to say something positive re your impending marriage. Not because it's yours, you understand, I think I have more residual marriage issues than I thought. interesting.

THE SMUG TEAM

oh right, that bit
the Royal Clarence probably

but no, that place is far too fucking fussy. It's a typical hotel with delusions of grandeur.

Get with the times, grandad.

Hahaha.
In the car the other day I became acutely aware of how like my Dad I am becoming.

Even spouting the same shit.

I want to go home.
Hands up all those who think I should.

after this afternoon I'm not going to be on b3ta for quite a while, and depending on my new job, hardly at all ever.

You will be another one on my list of would if they'd been single : )

Any ideas on cast iron reasons to tell my dad why I'm buggering off?

I told you the other day
A snooker ball in a sock says so much more than words can.

Calm down bluey.
Are you flying the red flag?
(I helped save b3ta! CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:49, Reply)
Say you've got the shits and your arse is like the Japanese flag.
Then suggest to him he might want to sniff your finger.

Or say you have a migraine.

The problem is my dad is the kind of person who would still stay at work even if he had a leg hanging off by a sinew.

(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 13:53, Reply)
My boss is like that.
I insist he goes home when he's ill because he once gave me the lurgy two days before Xmas.

Selfish bastard.

Go with 'women's problems'
if he's a proper man he'll be too scared to ask.

Failing that a headache and dizzy spells is easy to fake, or just a very queezy stomach.

Have a little sleep on the floor
lie down just inside the door and spread some paper clips around you. if anyone comes in the door will wake you up as it hits you and you'll look like you were picking up the paper clips.

I've never tried this.
Been tempted to have a snooze in the server room though as the only other people with keys to it are friends of mine.

(I helped save b3ta! CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Thu 8 Sep 2011, 14:08, Reply)
About £80, for two, including a bottle of wine
Which isn't all that cheap considering that's a good 20-25% of my monthly disposable income. I'm fortunate enough that my current boyfriend thinks it's wrong for girls to pay for dinner though (although I have snuck off, ostensibly to the toilets, and paid on the way back without him realising a couple of times)

Mosh pits are stupid. Next question.

Aww bless, can't have the little darlings handling money and all that nonsense, paying for themselves, they'll just get into a muddle or something.
And they say girl power is dead.

Nah, it's quite nice to be treated
but not every time we go out, which is why I sneakily pay sometimes. Besides, if he's paid for dinner I'll get the cinema/gig tickets or whatever.

He doesn't want you to pay your share
He wants a blowjob

Yeah', I'm only messin', I can't imagine you being the sort who expects not to pay for anything when out and about.
Shouldn't have be sneeky about it, you're both earning and you're both equal. It's worst when you start counting "I paid for X, you paid for Y" or "I had A and you had B, so I should pay a bit less" though, I can't be having any of that, weather it's mates or partners.

You're getting married in 2 day and she has a boyfriend.

disposable income.
What's left after necessities are paid for. Not the same as total income.

I'm a research scientist

Do you wear a white coat?

(I helped save b3ta! CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Thu 8 Sep 2011, 14:07, Reply)
Play your cards right and that'll be all she wears.
I bet she does some sort of heston bloomingtile style thing with verious chemicals so the coat changes colours, smell and texture depending on applied friction, heat and moisture.
