VIP sections in clubs

Tuco [Edit] [Delete] 32 replies 16:54, 6 August '06

i met a girl i work with last night whilst out and got persuaded to go to a quite pretentious nightclub. we ended up in the 'vip section' which was full of people up their own arses and standing about sucking their cheeks in and trying to look vital.

some bloke randomly started talking to me and within a minute, asked me what i did for a living and how much i earnt. i also saw this fucking posing arsehole who i went to school with, complete with skin tight shirt and spray tan. he actually got my name wrong when he was talking to me which i am sure he did on purpose. i should have smacked the prick but i really couldnt be arsed.

    Been there. I just lied. Lying is easy and fun. And now I own a Bentley. They don't need to know I don't drive.

    • boo hoo for icedgem

      she's never been in a VIP section apparently.

      jp100 @icedgemuk | 6 Aug '06, 17:01 | X
      • Yep. Boo hoo indeed!

        Hehe

        icedgemuk @jp100 | 6 Aug '06, 17:01 | X
        • maybe we could all donate some money

          to the icedgem VIP fund?

          jp100 @icedgemuk | 6 Aug '06, 17:05 | X
          • Have you been in one

            then, John?

            icedgemuk @jp100 | 6 Aug '06, 17:06 | X
            • :( no

              i've been NEAR one...

              jp100 @icedgemuk | 6 Aug '06, 17:07 | X
              • We should make our own

                VIP area then :oD

                icedgemuk @jp100 | 6 Aug '06, 17:09 | X
                • i'm not very important though

                  would i be allowed in my own VIP area?

                  jp100 @icedgemuk | 6 Aug '06, 17:10 | X
              • I once ended up in one

                in Liverpool barfly and got free drinks for the night - ace.

  • VIP fackt

    I got homesick_a and fionaps v.v.v. drunk on vodka red bull in a VIP area once. tom then left his jacket in the place.

    you decide:- is it my fault?

    crablin | 6 Aug '06, 17:11 | X
    • hell no

      the whole 'getting people drunk' thing just plays down the notion of personal responsibility. stroll on with a clear conscience.

      ex_cynic @crablin | 6 Aug '06, 17:16 | X
    • I'd like to pretend

      that evening never happened.
      please.
      I miss my jacket though. :'(

      homesick_alien @crablin | 6 Aug '06, 17:17 | X
      • but matty played animal collective!

        and my heart nearly exploded from caffeine!

        mmmm.... free bar.

        crablin @homesick_alien | 6 Aug '06, 17:18 | X
        • the free bar might have been better

          had we already not been buying lots of HORRID £15 bottles of wine from the not-free bar. :(

          I remember animal collective though.

          homesick_alien @crablin | 6 Aug '06, 17:26 | X
          • that's not my fault, alan

            anyway, how were apple?

            crablin @homesick_alien | 6 Aug '06, 17:31 | X
        • my heart actually nearly exploded from caffeine that night

          stupid VK secret caffeine bastards.

          nice_squirrel @crablin | 6 Aug '06, 18:46 | X
    • yes

      we also lost Fiona for about THREE HOURS.

      nice_squirrel @crablin | 6 Aug '06, 17:17 | X
      • she's only wee

        crablin @nice_squirrel | 6 Aug '06, 17:18 | X
        • you're only poo

    • All VIP normally means is that someone

      simply paid more to get in, surely?

      babykim | 6 Aug '06, 18:18 | X
      • no way

        it not only means that they paid more, but that you, the envious onlooker, paid less.

        ex_cynic @babykim | 6 Aug '06, 18:31 | X
      • pay MORE

        i thought the whole point of VIP was that I never pay for anything. ever.

        -Raz- @babykim | 7 Aug '06, 00:56 | X
    • I've been in one once

      and left after about 10 minutes because I really couldn't be arsed putting up with all the wankers in there, people who I have met and spoke to many times before were there, for some reason they suddenly think they are some kind of lord as soon as the term VIP is introduced. Wankers.

      Dalkin | 6 Aug '06, 18:41 | X
      • the fuckwit

        who i know that was drinking in there, is the biggest kind of wanker you can get. a steroid filled pretty boy that stands about either trying his greasy lines with women, or supping a non alcoholic drink because he likes to stay in control. the worst thing is, i think people almost see him like somekind of celebrity...everyone seems to know him and they almost seem to look up to him

        he asked me how things were and half way through telling him i could see he didnt want to know and he could see i didnt want to tell him. the conversation just fizzled out

        Tuco @Dalkin | 6 Aug '06, 18:54 | X
    • They suck don't they?

      A mate of mine in Leicester runs one and said I should pop along to see him, so I did with a few other mates.

      It was boring as hell really, all the otherpeople there were either annoyingly drunk or coked up to their eyeballs, the only fun part for me was that I was given free drink all night.

      tom_from_sparks | 6 Aug '06, 18:57 | X
    • fuck that shit

      VIP is fucking brilliant if you're there with people you like. it's free. plus it's free. and it's free. and you have good company.

      -Raz- | 7 Aug '06, 00:57 | X
    • VIP areas in general

      are just a shit idea.
      i hate them.

      guntrip | 7 Aug '06, 11:37 | X
      • I'd like to believe that even if by some miracle I get famous...

        ...I'd never go anywhere near a ViP area.

        The whole idea that some people are considered more important than others is genuinely horrifying to me and goes against pretty much everything I believe in.
