    Drinking as much as you can for a cheap as you can in someones house before you go to a club, arriving in club then stumbling around trying to get the shift for an hour or so then its off to abra kebabra for a curry cheese chip that you usually end up wearing, Taxi, home. Rinse and repeat.

    To become acquainted intimately with someone of the opposite gender. Or at least, with a gender, depending on natural inclination and how late it is.

    Typically, i find a night out in Ireland goes something like what is described in this music video and synopsis, only with worse weather:

    Aside from the something to poke on: Good.

    I tend to have fairly staid nights out though.

    Head to 2/3 pubs for pints to build up a head of steam before flooring it into a nightclub for spirits, namely Morgan Spiced, don't dance so mainly smoking far too much whilst drinking far too much.

    Chinese/burger/taco fries before staggering home safe in the knowledge you'll be dying in the morning

    Top off with facebook updates the following day about how twas a great night and how hungover you are.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Sharkey 10


    There are two types of crowd I know of the first is the one i usually frequent .
    Night starts out with drinking at home getting nicely tanked listening to tunes , by the time the taxi comes people are shouting and roaring and there is always some sort of problem with numbers and taxis . Then into town to which ever es tablishment more rowdiness (but of the good wholesome kind). After closing arsing around waiting for taxis and deciding were to go , then get back to whosever house and thing flow from there depending on the booze or narcotics involved and then all dying down some time before noon.

    The second kind of night out ive had the misfortune to be part of is where there is little drinking before town and alot of lovely shirts, brown shoes and hair gel. Into town alot of standing around looking cool. After hours back to the house imediatley to fall asleep and wake up covered in kebab meat.

    As woody guthrie says " which side are you on boys?"

    scramble to reach off license before fucking ten o clock, and stroll past some drunk loud obnoxious people, insult them with an inner solilquoy " there so drunk and annoying etc, " as you puchase 8 cans to drink within an hour,
    drink your 8 cans in a friend house, spend the last 15 mins wondering whether you are drunk and getting your story straight for that dickhead of a bouncer,
    " I had 2 pints" proceed to get into whatever nightclub you can, queue up at the bar
    to get 2 whiskeys and a pint, while giving barman/maid the look to serve you as fast as possible, proclaim to your friends, the music is shite, get another shot...............................................blank.....................................
    ................................blank.......................................................


    wake up with your stained clothes in the morning with a pounding headache,
    wonder why you bother doing this, spend 5 days at work, and the week has got to bad and your aching for another drink to forget your pathetic excuse for a life, (start at top of post again)

    Pub, food, home, ****, post on boards, bed.

    Or: Pub, food, home, ****, tell your friends (and boards) that you scored, bed.

    Or you actually do score: Pub, home, score, bed, more sex, not brag about it, wake up, more sex, happy enough to not care to post on boards about immigrants, people on the dole, immigrants on the dole, immigrants and dole people reproducing, immigrants on the dole procreating without protection (which you are also doing, but it's with an Irish chick, so that doesn't count), breakfast, walk of shame, done.

    Coppers....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 240 ✭✭-Leelo-


    Pre drinks, so your usually locko by the time ya head out, taxi comes early when you dont want it to and late when ur in a hurry, get to the nightclub and try squeeze in as many drinks before half 2 / running out of money, afterwards take a ramble over to the chipper to order the sloppiest thing on the menu and try to avoid leering drunk men covered in curry sauce, ring around looking for a "party" which is usually a disappointment and theres only ever feckin miller to drink for some reason, home to bed to die the whole next day :D

    Strangely, I seem to enjoy clubs that aren't absolutely **** and full of ****.

    For some reason, getting squashed against the bar by a fat, drunken Garda while the DJ mixes Jumbo Breakfast Roll into Cotton Eye Joe just doesn't give me my jollies these days.

    Haha good man. they were at trinity the other night and part of it was a Q and A.
    most brilliant answer to a question was
    "what do ye think of Jersey Shore?"

    "Well, if those lads spent more time on the site and not washin' their clothes or masturbaitin' in front of the mirror, they might have a bit more shtyle about them"

    Been summed up pretty well so far, but here it is again:
    6/7:decide to go out.
    Half 7:offie or tesco, depending on your funds and where the house your going to is.
    8:Head to the pre drinking house for the night.
    Half 8:Some sort of drinking game starts, due to not many people being at the house yet.
    9 to 10:drinking, having the craic,tunes,etc.
    10 to half 10: spend ages argueing about when we should all leave.
    Half 10 to half 11: Realise someone may have called a taxi, and you must drink all your drink as soon as possible.
    Half 11-12:Stumble into taxi, usually some conflict arrises like an alarm going off, someone missing, someone argueing with taxi driver over price, someone has lost something in the house ,etc.
    12:Arrive in town, queue for nightclub that has been picked.Get in.Spend first 45 minutes or so getting ****-faced.
    After that: blur.
    9am: Wake up, litre of orange juice, 3 pandol, and read over texts as you realise what stupid things you did last night.

    'the world is what you make it Baby!'

    it's up to people to do what they want to do, it needn't necessarily involve gallons of drink, it's possible to get by without gallons of drink you know.;)

    How would you describe it to someone who has not yet had a 'night out' in Ireland?

    I would tell them that it's a sight to see, and the best bit is at the end when the pubs close and you can observe blokes picking fights with the cars in the street, and girls tumbling about because of the shoes they couldn't even walk in at the beginning of the night when they were still sober.

    Other countries will charge you entrance for spectacles like this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,178 ✭✭✭✭NothingMan


    About 10 beers, taxi, 5 beers, good times, 5 more beers, really good times (that my mates fill me in on the next day) kebab, taxi, sleep, hangover.

    I'm a man of simple pleasures and I enjoy my good times.

    Dinner and drinks afterwards. I'm not a fan of drinking before I go out and eating at the end of the night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Sharkey 10


    It seems most of us drink before the pub , personally im usually fairly drunk before i get to town. I wanted to know is there an age that people think someone should stop drinking before going out?
    Ive never known my parents to drink before going out. I know for a lot of people its money related but if i had money id still like to drink before going out as i think its great craic.
    Btw im 23 and most people that i know round my age do the same.

    Typical night out? The weekend has landed. All that exists now is clubs, drugs, pubs and parties. I've got 48 hours off from the world, man. I'm gonna blow steam out my head like a screaming kettle, I'm gonna talk cod **** to strangers all night, I'm gonna lose the plot on the dancefloor. The free radicals inside me are freakin', man! Tonight I'm Jip Travolta, I'm Peter Popper, I'm going to never-never land with my chosen family, man. We're gonna get more spaced out than Neil Armstrong ever did, anything could happen tonight, you know? This could be the best night of my life. I've got 73 quid in my back burner - I'm gonna wax the lot, man! The Milky Bars are on me! Yeah!

    But then you end up in Coppers getting molested by some Culchie wretch before walking home due to lack of decent night transit, you spew your guts up after being chased by junkies and get home to find you have spent all your income on less than a dozen beers and a nasty kebab.
