The old board has been a bit quite recently so heres something to hopefully get it rolling.
What is the most anoying thing about the contemporary cluber genre? Clothes, attitude etc?
Me and Exodus are going to publish the handbook shortly. Once we get it finished we will enlighten you guys. Sums up the pretentious people, quite funny
Clubbers in the UK are interconnected cos they\'re all on the same wavelength (due mainly to certain euphoric accessories). Clubbers in NZ don\'t seem to be the same - only some of us are on the same wavelength (due mainly to the exhorbitant prices of said euphoric accessories). If you go clubbing in the UK you\'ll know what I mean - it\'s wicked! It\'s one of the things I miss most about clubbing over there cos there are heaps of pretentious wankers over here in clubland obsessed with how cool they are (or think they are).
Attitude - the \"better than everyone else\" thing after too much to drink, that the rest of us don\'t have. We are just out there to have fun and always have grins from ear to ear!
I don\'t reckon there are too many of the pretentious kind down here in Wgtn. I have actually never been out up in Akld, but everyone down here is all good as far as I can see, nice and friendly. I like to ignore the drunks and pretend they\'re not there.
the thing i hate the most is the fact that there are so many fucken scenesters who think they have more right to be there than everyone else, because they know everybody...
...people who haven\'t caught on to the fact that taking more pills than everyone else and never seeing daylight doesn\'t actually make you cooler than anyone else...
true, although reltively speaking more people also = more nice people too so the ratios of snobs to non-snobs should remain the same. They shouldn\'t be more noticable because they should get lost in amongst the non-snobs. Anyway, I can\'t comment on Akld.
More people may mean more nice people as well as more snobs, but it all depends on how these groups of people are distributed throughout the clubs. It may be the case that a larger proportion of snobs are visiting the same clubs, which may degrade the clubbing atmosphere.

I don\'t really gel well with the following attitude: Anyone who drinks even a bit is a munter. They can\'t understand the essence of clubbing or dance music and belong in Leftfield.
The thing Ive noticed and hate about clubbers is that probably about 80% of clubbers are so in love with themselves its just not funny. Have a look around next time your out, and tell me how many people you can see that dont love themselves, think theyre Gods gift to the opposite sex etc.
Bugger all.
God that sounded mean - I am meaning people who I may have met once at a dance party like yonks ago and suddenly when they\'re wasted they\'re your new best friend.
i know what you mean moo....
there are some people you just don\'t click with and that\'s fine, i can accept that...
but when they are jaw chompin, and bug eyed, they are SOOOOO happy to see you
yeah, yeah, nice to see you too.. (pat, pat on back)
A lot of people in the dance scene seem to have a problem with people who drink ie: talk about how they hate seeing people at events with a beer in their hand etc. What a closed mined attitude. I couldn;t give a shit whether people drink, take drugs or are totally au natureal as long as they\'re having fun, i\'m having fun and no one is annoying anyone else.
Usually they are the same people pandering to the DJ who....HORROR OF HORROR\'S...is enjoying a couple of beers during his/her set.
I don\'t quite know where this attitude comes from...but I couldn\'t care less who thinks I\'m a LOSER (nice mature word that) whilst I enjoy a lager or voddie whilst cooling my heels.
I hate that word \"LOSER\"..... i\'ve been called a
loser a few times in the last couple of months....
by anonymous text-messagers who spell it
\"LOOSER\"....
I never, ever drink myself cause I just don\'t enjoy
it... but the only time it bothers me is when
there\'s drunk raucous types on the street, and
I\'m alone.... the drinking masses don\'t seem to
behave the same way at dance parties....?
don\'t you morons understand. the majority of people who say they hate drinkers aren\'t talking about every single person that drinks. they are talking about DRUNKS. you know, the assholes the pinch girls asses and start fights...
don\'t be so self-centred and fragile that you assume that people who say they hate pissheads are talking about you...
try and look at it this way:
do you cause trouble when you\'re pissed?
do other people usually even know that you\'re drunk?
if you didn\'t answer yes, then they\'re probably not talking about people like you...
and even if they are talking about you (i.e. you are an asshole) their problem is not with the fact that you drink, but that it turns you into an asshole.
the thing I hate the most about the clubbing (well more drug) Culture is the drug addled memory syndrome, You know the one - stuggle to match it with a gold fish.......
I think that you are twisted, you still need to be aware of who else is in the same state. If I\'m rather \"happy\", I\'ll try to not freak out the straight looking people.
