Feeling Demotivated About Going Out?

  • Start date
In summary, people often feel less motivation to go out and party when they are in their fourth year of university. This is because they are getting older and have more responsibilities.

As the title suggests...

you've obviously never been at a party with one of these babies: http://www.ekitchengadgets.com/shgldrchset.html

There is no better measure of a great mind than the ability to follow a game of chess bombed.— I know I can't... after a few turns my queen was humping one of the pawns, and the bishops were urinating on the king .

If this was true, you wouldn't have the time for this very post here of PF, pal. :biggrin:

What does that have to do with partying? You discover parties in your house..? :-p

Why, what's a typical night out in the States cost? On my last date I spent $75 Canadian (~$68 US) (tip included) for the both of us.. 12 drinks in total. I know that booze bought from a store is way cheaper in the states than in Ontario, but how does it compare to the bars?


In regards to the poll, generally during school I try to go out at least once a week and often twice. During the summer it's about 3 times a week. :approve:

Whoa! I rarely ever, well never, buy drinks for the ladies. If she was a date, then maybe one or two.

I never bought a random girl I met at a bar a drink.

I agree. If women want equality, that means paying their own bill.

Do bridal showers and baby showers count? Dinner with a group of friends? How are we defining party, and does alcohol have to be involved?

I get very confused by the word "party" used as a verb. In my younger days, it meant "smoke pot". People used to ask me "Do you like to party?" and I naively said, "yes, sure!" before someone clued me in on what it meant! :redface:

Yeah, that's what I think of party. It's either smoking weed or drinking or both.

I don't smoke, but when I think party, I definitely think alcohol.

I agree. And I'm fed up with that door-opening and coat-taking stuff. They should do it all on their own. :devil: :-p

Definition: anything that includes vices. :biggrin:

That's not the context of what I'm thinking about though.

I'll open doors for the ladies and do my best eating and such.

Sweetness. I loves efficiency.

Hm, I wonder how you would program drunkenness into a chess-playing program. That might be worth getting drunk for. At least I wouldn't have to beat it up when it tried to take advantage of me. :-p

I don't suppose you would prefer "since women deserve equality"?

Actually, Evo saved my day, since the number of votes for the "Never" option seems to be increasing rapidly. And I thought I was a weirdo because I don't go out all the time. :rolleyes:

Oh she offered to pay, don't worry. She got the cab rides last time and I told her she could get it this time, but we actually just ended up walking (stumbling) home together. It was actually very nice.

But if she offers, why not just let her pay? Otherwise, she shouldn't offer.

Meh, it wasn't a big deal and it's not like I pay for everything. Sometimes she'll pick up the tab, other times me. That particular case I just payed the tab while she was in the washroom before we left. She asked how much she owed me and I not to worry about it. I didn't really feel like doing a financial breakdown of who owed what at 3am, you know? :smile:
