How to look like an idiot in a bar... <avoid it now!>

[reddelicious]

1. Be too cheap to pay for coatchecking. Nothing looks stupider or more cheap than a man dressed in club gear with a windbreaker tied around his waist.

2. Be way too old for the club. If you're 40, and the average age is 21, you're too old. People will call you "that creepy old guy"... you may say you're "there for the music," but if you ogle more than three 19 year olds' breasts, you aren't listening to it. Either way, go with friends, not alone or with one other desperate looking man.

Anyone else got things...?

I'm one of those guys over 40 (way over), so maybe I'm just confused about how things are done today but how about:

1. Making endless laps of the bar with your longneck hanging from one finger. Does this have some fetish appeal to women?

2. Do the electric slide by jumping as high as you can and then stomping loudly on the step-touch, step-touch in the middle. Or...maybe this is to impress the female of the species with his great physical prowess.

Maybe these are confined to the CW bars I visit from time to time.

By the way, I do go to bars frequented by young people, and I hardly ever ogle at 19 year old girls. I make serious psychological studies of the mating rituals of southern women. Of course, just as a biologist studies primary sexual characteristics and mating plumage of birds, I must observe and note the same for the women present in order to make my studies complete. On a serious note, sitting for a while in a bar generates some fantastic story characters.

1. Think a few drinks will help you dance better.

2. Wear that shirt your mother bought.

3. Be a white guy, in FUBU.

4. Keep trying to dance with someone, when it's clear they don't want what you've got (a personal fav)
