You have to go at least once to discover that it's shit
And also the novelty of a bar in a church.

I'm from Brighton
we already have one of those. It was called the Font and Firkin, I think it's just the Font now.

I like the font.
£2 cocktails.

I didn't know that
I just remember their own brewery beer called DogBolter, which was about 7.5%.

Shut up I'm funny I'm just not appreciated in my own time.

possibly the most offensive thing I've ever been called.

I try, I try.

(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:58, Reply)

oh it's that one,
I've been there, i thought it was ok.
(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:31, Reply)

but if it is a place that is widely recognised as shit
then why bother?

that'd be like stabbing yourself in the dick, to discover for yourself that it is a stupid thing to do, despite everyone knowing it.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:34, Reply)

You don't get drunk by stabbing yourself in the dick

(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:34, Reply)

while that is true
it has no bearing on my point. You can get drunk places that aren't shit.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:35, Reply)

Yes but the shittest place you can get drunk in
you can still get drunk in, if you see what I mean.
(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:37, Reply)

I do see what you mean
but I'm of the opinion that if there is the option of a better place to get drunk then you should go there instead.

This is getting off the point though. What I was getting at is that there is no point going somewhere shit just to see for yourself how shit it is.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:38, Reply)

Can I take the opposite side of the argument,
you shouldn't totally avoid a place just because someone says it's shit.
(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:42, Reply)

what about if every one of your good mates
whose opinion you trust say it's shit?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:43, Reply)

Wouldn't stop me going to meet people there or if a group of people want to go.

(PsychoChomp, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:45, Reply)

nor me I suppose
but I would be suspicious of their motives
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:49, Reply)

Its cheap.
We're poor. End of.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:39, Reply)

The union is surely cheaper?
As is OP bar, and that is marginally less shit. Hell, even Robinskis is less shit. Is Robinskis still there?
(Bazongaloid, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:40, Reply)

Robinski's is still there.
I'd say its more shit.
Never been to OP bar, because I live opposite Slems, and their bar is equally as cheap, so there's no point.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:42, Reply)

irrelevant

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:40, Reply)

When you're drunk enough it doesn't really matter how shit the place is.
IMHO
( girlinthehole, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:36, Reply)

I'm rarely so drunk that the fundamental shitness of a place won't affect my enjoyment of being drunk
I reiterate: why go somewhere shit and get drunk, when you can go somewhere good and get drunk?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:40, Reply)

Usually because the beer is cheap and so are the men.
In all honesty, I've had some of the best nights out in some real dives.
( girlinthehole, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:42, Reply)

if it's really cheap then it doesn't count as shit surely?
I was fortunate in Cardiff that two of the cheapest clubs were also the best ones.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:43, Reply)

I guess I just know how to enjoy myself wherever I am.

what a delightfully subtle jibe

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:45, Reply)

It's not a jibe
she's just subtley pointing out that she's a dirty slut who will fuck anyone anywhere.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 15:46, Reply)

we all know that
there's no need for subtlety

Sometimes I wish that was true.
