Do I look famous? Or poor?

    I went to a club last night. Total poser place. I felt a bit under dressed, but I'm past caring about these things. I was with a big group, and you had to pay to get in. So everyone was paying at the cashier, and I went up to pay my money.

    The girl at the desk said "oh, YOU don't have to pay".

    So, I didn't. All my friends were looking at this in amazement. I was loving it, thinking she must have thought I was, like, Justin Timberlake. But the others thought I just looked like i couldn't really afford the entry fee.

    Does anyone here work in the nightclub game? Can you enlighten me? Am I most likely to have been mistaken for a poor person or a famous person.

    Club was dreadful, btw.

    Were you wearing a coal bag or a potatoe sack by any chance?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,778 ✭✭✭tallaght01


    There's no way in hell a girl like that thought I was hot.

    This place was full of "beautiful people". I was like a total knacker.

    But.....I still managed to start a conga line to the ****ty banal foot-tapping background music. I have an almost 100% conga success rate.

    It was the best dressed conga line I've ever been in :D

    Maybe she thought you were a drug dealer and thought you could hook her up to feed her heroin habit?

    Famous people should have to pay double. :pac:

    She thought you were the cleaner?
    She thought you were hawt.
    Ah, c'mon, there's no need for that kind of sarcasm! ¬_¬

    You might be onto something there, actually. When I was walking home, 2 guys came up to me pretty nervously when I was walking down a deserted dark street. I thought they were going to mug me. But they asked how much I was selling pills for!!!
    She thought you were the cleaner?


    That's actually happened to me before!!!

    You must have smelled of doctor or have saved her life previously.

    I think I just smelled of some pretty skanky aftershave, to be honest :P

    Well if it was one of the "Beautiful People" places and she thought you were too poor to buy in, I doubt you would have been left in at all because you wouldn't have been able to afford drink ?

    Either she knew you from somewhere, mistook you for someone else or just took pity on you after reading your "Christy has a bird" thread and was going to give you a sympathy fuck but couldnt find you after the club.

    Maybe it was every-fifth-customer-FREE! night

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    She definitely wanted cock.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,746 ✭✭✭taidghbaby


    was it naomi campbell and your part of her community service by any chance???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,312 ✭✭✭Daftendirekt


    You aren't painting a very appealing picture of yourself here OP :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    Were you wearing a long white doctor's coat? (and nothing else :eek: )

    Maybe doctors get in for free...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,331 ✭✭✭✭bronte


    Maybe she thought you were the world's most giant doctor (I love that show)

    "Don't ask him for money. He's the Conga King. The Conga King don't pay for no nightclub."

    Are you going to go back?

    No way am I goin back. It was such an effort to get that crown going :P Zero banter.

    It was like someone told all the girls "your ovaries are precariously balanced on your head, if you move an inch they'll fall on the floor, sterilising you forever".

    And all the guys were wearing suits. I mean who wears a suit to nightclub these days? last time I saw that was in wine bars in Dublin in the nineties.

    Nooooo!!! but what is it about that place? A few of my friends were there a couple of weeks ago and have been raving about it since.

    In order to acurately judge, we need a picture of you, in what you were wearing to accurately judge why you were let in for free.
