  • I don't go out that much...which is ironic cause I live in Australia...one country that is known for drinking a lot. I go to the occasional rave which is fun, they at least play good music, and people don't grind, because its not cool there and you don't have to drink to have a good time, that's the best part.

  • its just the way the achohol makes it, or hanging out.

  • Here in Belfast there's this one bar I go every Saturday because A - free entrance, B - reasonably priced drinks, C - cool music (for a bar anyway) and D - the female crowd there seems to like me. Also, it's about the only place where I actually let loose enough to dance.

  • everytime i go out i do quick look and a try to find some normale people that i actually can talk too

  • My grandma's 62 years old and she goes out to bars every Friday night with her sisters but they go to a old drunk kind of bar were it's just sitting around the bar table

  • Butt Nuggets Rule Baby!

  • the only time i ever go to bars is to see people like deadmau5 and skrillex. i know you people will bash on my sense of music but i admit it. i like dubstep and electro and all that stuff

  • @SpicyTofuZ9 omg i play bass too o.o

  • I don't really see the whole point of going to clubs or bars either and I live in Las Vegas!!! I prefer going to coffee houses or tea houses to hang out. Their quiet and you don't have crappy club pop songs with people fist pumping to them. I would just sit there on their comfy little couches or sofas reading a book and enjoying the local musicians or the indie rock songs playing in the background.

  • @Beaglegirl19

    i live in vegas too ( at least now) and i for one hear you. I hate the superficial bs club scene. i like a nice lounge to chill at, but overall, I'm a coffeehouse kinda dude who loves to just chat.

  • i just sit there akwardly in the corner when i go to a and observe people. every now and then i'll try to dance and some freak will try and grind up on me. that's why instead of going to bars i shop or go to work.

  • oh yeah and as for dancing i rather do that in the privacy of my own home

  • yeah i don't fit in at bars or clubs or any of those so when i go out i just hang out with friends and we have our own little party

  • Well I know where I'm not going when I turn 21

  • i dont like bars ether

    

  • Go to an Irish pub

  • Meh. Fuck the bar. I'm staying at the pub.

  • Going to raves or massive parties ^_^ TAKING LOADS OF SYNTHETIC DRUGS.

  • "butt nugget"

  • So tired of booty shorts. It is not just bars, its Walmart, its the Mall, its anywhere. I don't go to bars anyways (I am only 19 not legal but don't think I would anyways inless i was like with someone I knew and they wanted to go) And, as stated in other comments I love your rants.

  • I get semi-drunk and try to muster up the courage to flirt, but never succeed because I'm a nice geeky guy.

    As for that dude grinding, he was probably out to make a point about how good he was at getting women, that they would all flock to him. It didn't really matter whether or not you gave him signs, he would do it anyway to prove his point.

  • i know what you mean! i don't like going to school dances, and everyone thinks me and my boyfriend are weird for not going to dances

  • Personally, I don't go to bars. Screw that garbage. Last time I set foot in a bar was when I was in the Army. That was about 16/17 years ago. Now, I just buy a 12 pack once every two weeks, and drink at home. I hate people, and hate crowds of them under the same small, roof, drinking booze. Bad combination. I'll wind up killing somebody.

    Bars to me are the "living" Facebook....or Myspace. Just say no.

  • @Bllackguard666

    brilliantly put!

  • I don't drink meaning I don't go to bars which is good because 99% of the people there are douches or retards. What I do instead of going to bars

    -Watch movies or anime

    -Play video games

    -Take a walk outside during a quiet night

    -Go to the gym

  • Meh, I don't drink. I don't like crowds in general anyways. I'd rather go do something outside by myself or at the most 3 or 4 friends.

  • I still hate you.

  • the people getting all over eachother at bars are prolly rollin on ecstacy..espesially dance clubs thats what they do in utah then there always like"you wana light show"? point is theres always a raver at any club in mormonville

  • XD I really don't like booty shorts. Lol. I love wearing skirts over skinny jeans...yes I know it's weird...but I love wearing multiple layers of clothing. haha.

  • First vrant I ever watched of yours. <3

  • I go to a small club, a shisha club with my friends, have a few beers, smoke a shisha and just have nice chats with them. I love going to that place.

  • I cut down trees, I skip and jump, I like to press wildflowers. I put on women's clothing, and hang around in bars!

  • Booty shorts are fucking awful. The people you see wearing them are teenage girls anyway.

  • can u do a glee vrant?

  • lmao so much. i think my jaws going to pop out. pain

  • do a vrant on ppl who show off because they posted the first comment of a video

  • Just gotta say that I, personally, don't go to bars. Did when I was younger, living in BC. It's just a thing everyone there seems to do. Grew out of it pretty quick. I spend most of my time now either working, or trying to enjoy life. Hiking, horseback riding, tinkering with things (I'm a guy!).

    As for the butt dancing thing...maybe a fetish? Still kinda freaky. You are also not the only one who detests drunken sweaty people groping all over them, and I hate the smell of beer.

  • drunken paintballing sounds amazing

  • bahahah im inlove with you for this video!! totally agree, bars are over rated..id much rather go out to a restaurant or chill at a friends place and drink at home. atleast there is no akwardness involved and annoying drunks..you know the ones that are proud to be drunk

  • I live in perth Scotland so everyone I know goes there to get their rage out (i do as well) you drink pick a fight puke on your shoes the night is complete.

  • How do you change the picture in your thumbnails? Are you a partner? If you are, you totally earned it.

  • Mmmmmmm Vodka crannberry! Yumm :)

  • the butt nugget...whenever you get shirts, get one that says that :D

  • the but nougat lmao please vrant about the but nougat :D

  • im scrolling through ur damn videos and almost everyone is a vrant holy shit people arent perfect all you do is complain about shit no one cares hun find a new hobby and what you said to blood on the dance floor thats my fav band and arent you supposed to be setting an example how do u think they feel if they saw that video

  • I don't go to bars--I don't drink. Not that I'm moralistic about that; I just can't find an alcoholic drink I like the taste of--and I'm not much on bar culture (this vid amply illustrates why xD).

    For social outlets, I'm really getting into contra dancing this year. But if you have bad knees, that could be a problem. Then again, my right knee isn't in the best shape, but I feel that contra actually helps it some.

  • I think you are great! Lol I love the twilight rants! OMFG! LOL!

  • I've never gotten the idea of bars. I don't see the "fun" in them; I guess me not drinking, smoking, or generally doing stuff that "cool" kids do has something to do with it.

  • @NirvashTypeSeven Neither have I, forget what the "cool" kids are doing, be an individual!

  • Drunken paint-balling sounds like an extremely fun time thank you for putting this idea in my head.

  • What do I do? Start in a decent pub, all is well. OH but then people decide to go to those kinds of places, so I either look like a dick when I get dragged around with them, or I look like a dick when I draw the line and refuse.

    Guess who stopped bothering.

  • ok I gotta ask ... its been bothering me... whats with the "v" its rant! lol

  • @FireflySkateboarder V is for Video. Like vlog = video log.

  • ive never been in a bar.ok thats a lie mabey with my mum,but what i do no is they make me feel annoyed i agree with this rant,everyone at bars are just drunk fuckheads sorry about my choice of words but its true..there just a bunch of drunk people wiv problems and of story dont go to a bar to have fun im sure theres other things to do then to waste ur time on drunk people :)

  • Drunken Paintballing sounds EPIC!! to watch...

    I love paintballing

  • I hate bars , there's this whole meat store thing going on. People go there to hookup and they are the worst assholes on the planet so why would anybody want to meet these people.

    Hell I'm down for drunk paintball , you form a league and I'll go. Start with a 10 drink minimum.

  • I like going to the bars because they are way better then going to clubs. I don't dance and I hate dancing so I hate being in a place where I'm forced to dance by random females I meet. Plus every time I go to a club a fight alway happens or someone shots the place up. Other then that at least at bars I can chill and enjoy myself with my friends. The only draw back to bars are the people that randomly want to hug you and want to tell you stuff. But hey thats just me lol

  • Men tip better then women, that is why they are served first.

  • go to nyc, sit in a lounge, get a 12 dollar makersmark, and discuss personal philosophy. my pasttime.

  • @postjam maker's mark is so delish!

  • @postjam F A G

  • @discordantconsonance

    that's a shitty chord progression

  • I beg you to make more videos PLEASE!

  • Thank you for the new rant, it kinda made my day :-)

  • Ever since I've been watching your videos I've been saying things like "Fuck that!" and "What the fuck is that!?" a lot more. Your vrants are staring to rud off on me and I like it. lol

  • You a partner already?

  • id definitely choose drinks at a friends house than going to a club. though i dont mind quiet bars where it's civil and easy to talk. i dont have that dancing gene, im more of a 'sitter-arounder'

  • I went out to the nightclub last night for the first time. this stupid drunk bitch was yelling in my ear. told her to shut the fuck up. got in a fist fight...well i guess i was the only one punching after her first attempt missed. and got arrested....eh. decent night though :]

  • I don't drink and I'm not interested in having sex 40-something smokey divorcees with two kids and tits that sag to their knees, so why go?

  • Drunk people are funny.

  • I like you because you are the kind of girl I would want to hang out with, and we would go shopping, and talk about stupid people, and MST3K movies, and drink scotch.

    I refer to the butt nugget as the thighbutt.

  • @insanitybook A girl who likes MST3K is a keeper. :)

  • @insanitybook mst3k is the best.

  • @gineriella when i go out i go to cool places like the movies or barnes and noble everywhere i go if its a bar they do play that song shots and they do the fist pumping or whatever i try to mind my own business whenever i go out but where i live in florida its full of trendy people and weird bars its like one big shithole i use to live up north but where im living now its pretty bad but in the end i wish i could go paintballing

  • Last time I went to a bar, some 400lb gal kept trying to grind on my friends & I. After all of us turned her down with "Die. Now." looks, she slipped twice in the puddle of beer she made while "dancing". She decided to blame that second slip on her friend whom she punched after regaining her footing. It was dark, too loud to hear the friends I was with, the drinks were too expensive & I was constantly bumping shoulders with people I have no interest in talking to, let alone touching.

  • @ConalCochran get off the computer andric

  • @SuperGameGames Daddy won't let me.

  • I never been to bars/nightclubs until i went to university, i don't like , too loud and kinda boring.

    I much rather go to a movie, or have dinner, is there such a thing as a late night cafe? I would go to one of those and read a book and talk.

  • hey what do you think of raves?

  • I'm 17 so me and a few friends buy a few beers each maybe roll a spliff and kick back and relax :)

  • I don't go to bars (I'm only in High School) and never will, but I agree with the booty shorts, I HATE booty shorts and the fact that they're the only shorts made nowadays, I have not worn shorts since I was eleven because I can not find regular shorts anymore. Besides, the only girls who can wear them are tall, skinny ones, and even they do not look good in them.

  • Booty shorts make you wanna drink more...or scrape your eyes with a vegetable peeler.....I'd rather hit up a liquor store, buy my stuff, go home and drink there! No worrying about driving home, no dealing with drunk assholes, guidos, guidettes, creepy old guys and you get your drinks when YOU want them cause you're your (see what I did there? I paid attention to your "your, you're" vrant) own bartender!

  • To get laid.. That's the only reason Ive ever gone.. Sometimes with great success.

  • i dnt get it either...i ask my friends n they say....s'fun init.... ¬_¬

  • I avoid bars and shit but yes drunken paint-balling is fun. As well as stoned paint-balling!

  • I wish I could hang out with you gineriella..too funny.

  • Nothin' doin' tonight. I love ya. You fun.

  • I have advice for you Gineriella, go to pubs. I don't mean regular bar type places, but real english/irish style pubs. You get to sit down with a beer and friends and sometimes there's live music. It's WAAAY better

  • Friday nights, I'm at home doing reports. College life is hell is certain doses.

  • Butt nugget and whirlwind of douchebaggery are amazing phrases. Well done.

  • I really want to go to a bar. Sadly I'm 17.

  • Man you are going to the wrong places to get drinks. $6 Beers? Last night the place I went to had $5 Domestic pitchers and $10 Liquor Pitchers!

    For me, I don't always like Bars. You are right they get crowded and there are a lot of assholes, but I do enjoy them from time to time with friends. Its more about the camaraderie with my buddies than the actual atmosphere. However back when I was single it was a good place to meet chicks who were DTF...I'm just Sayin'

  • Great rant. Also i must say, you have a nice ass :)

  • @corpen11 well in america you are but if you come to england u can drink at 16 aslong as your with parents or in your house at 18 anything u want!

  • @SheIbyCobra That's another thing about the States that is so different to Ireland, here nobody in their right mind would dream of driving home, but from TV and friends apparently people do it all the time! If I tried to drive after 2 drinks my friends would eat me. Madness!

  • i have arthritis in my right shoulder

  • Thank god I've never gone clubbing. I hate my personal space being blown apart with guys riding all up on my shit. I prefer to go bowling with friends or see a movie or just invite them over and make them bring their own drinks and sit and watch shitty movies for the hell of it, sometimes with a drinking game attached. And yeah I've even had an xbox drinking party, that's a real good laugh!

  • i concur with your rant biatch

  • clubs that are full of 17-20 year old college people and degenerates. Never heard this shots song sounds funny though. Irish bars tend to be a bit of a cattle mart at times which is the downside, apparently in the US you don't get so many people kissing in bars but here it's everywhere, which is the only part I'm not a fan of. I'm rambling and forgot my point. Oh well great video. :)

  • @Asho87 Dude, in the States we laugh at people kissing in bars. I saw some guy PROPOSE in a bar. I had to run out just so me and my friends could hysterically laugh.

  • @VELOCIRAPTOR247 Haha really? I guess it depends on the custom or what have you. In Ireland grinding on the dancefloor is such a no-no, and n the States from what I've seen that's just what you do on dancefloors! :)

  • @Asho87 that IS true...all I see nowadays are the failgrinders. I still try to find the clubs where actual dancing happens. They do exist, if you're willing to devote a couple weeks to it

  • @VELOCIRAPTOR247 Haha well I do enjoy a drink so would probs be dedicated enough to shop around! Dunno if you have it there but a lot of clubs here you have to pay 10 euro at the door, that drives me nuts!!

  • how come you videos are at night with nice clothes on? lol

  • I'm from Ireland and obviously we're quite famous for drinking but theres such a broad variety of places to go here that you can definitely choose what kind of night you're going to have, theres your pubs, your pub-clubs, your bars, your fancy bars, your young clubs, your 20-something y/o clubs, you can even pick the music you want. i'm 23 (our legal drinking age is 18) so been around the scene for a while and the behaviour you're talking about really only happens here in the...

  • @gineriella

    I've got three words for you: funny, smart, and gorgeous

    And I do like your personnality.

    Keep it up.

  • I cannot help you with the appeal of bars like those...I don't see it.

    If I met you in one of those bars, I'd invite you out for coffee.

  • i think everyone fist pumps to shots, jersey or not

  • @398378076

    At tables the drunks always talk to me about THEIR LIVES, not "there lifes". Check out her preceding video "Proper Grammar Vrant" that was meant for people like you, it could help.

  • Bars annoy me because of rap music.... Its like a bunch of MTV drooling retards.

  • At tables the drunks always talk to me about there lifes, i guess i have one of those faces :D

  • Totally with you there, Gina.

    I only go out to a bar when I'm with friends but I stick to them like glue. I NEVER go to a bar by myself. I always get the weird looks when I go to a bar. It's just really not my scene. I'd rather hang out and drink at a friends house and watch some movies or something.

    Keep on doing what you do, Gina! :D

  • "A whirlwind of Douchebaggery"

    I have to use that phrase at least once in my life.

  • I don't go to bar.... way to many annoying people and mainly because i don't drink... i do go food hunting, mmmm :P~~

  • i never go to bar alone cos its lame and boring.

  • Love this!

  • hit on drunk chicks

  • I don't understand the appeal for bars either. I don't *hate* bars, but they're not really my thing. I like pubs, restaurants and cafes, and places where I can hear myself and others speak, instead of going half-deaf from hearing the blaring top-40 tunes in your typical bar. I like to dance and have a couple of drinks at a club once in a while---but certainly not every week, or even every month. And yeah, it's not likely that I'm going to find awesome boyfriend at a bar or club, so...meh!

  • aww manu lucky u get to go to the bars abd the clubs girl shit!i still cant go to those places cause i i either usually have work or its alcohols wayy to expensive and i gotta wait till like next year till i get the fuck outta my parents house to go to the clubs and bars as late as i want so my mom wont be on my ass lolz

  • I think i would of linched the bar tender and punched him if he said that to me.

  • your ass is wonderful.

    also, drinking in bars is bad. i'll end up like my father, smashing a guy's head through a juke box nine times, or attempting to and getting destroyed.

  • I rarely have enough money to blow at bars. Also Im a little anti-social (small-talk sucks). But I went to this huge 100 classic car show in the town next to mine. It was hot that day, so I went into the bar, and to my surprise the bar was packed....At 2:00. But I luckily got a seat at the bar and I just chilled for an hour talkin to people old enough to be my parents. Good times.

  • I don't go out anymore, because it's fucking retarded to pay for overpriced drinks/beer, listen to retarded music and hang around retarded people. Some might enjoy it, I understand but I prefer weed with my friends and some good ol' 80's action flicks. Add beer to that and that's all I need!

  • 1 thing that pisses me off the most is probably "Guidoism" has now taken over the whole world, Ive stopped clubbing, Ive substituted it with getting stoned at home, couple acid tabs and a lotta munchies. Call your friends and that's that. But those Techno pop DJ loving alcohol fueled superficial cunts i cannot stand anymore.

  • I would so Fellatio you.

  • Considering im 14 i have only gone to 1 or 2 bars :P but not drinking (: But nice Vrant

  • Gina,

    Like you, I prefer the more chill bars. For instance, here in Bowling Green, KY (yeah great bar scene, you can't even buy cold alcohol on Sundays here, but it's where I go to school so I have to make due) there is this bar called Utley's. It has the aspects of a place that was, once, not too bad, but has now become a bit of a dive. However, there's lots of space, pool tables, dart boards and a touch screen jukebox. Even when the place is hopping, it's not overly insane like a club.

  • @jw870206 Anyway, I do also go to this one bar in Louisville on 4th Street Live! called Sully's Saloon. It has more of a club-like atmosphere to it, because there's a DJ, the music is really loud and there's plenty of dancing. But I go there anyway just to have drinks (I conveniently pick a table close to one of the bars as there are multiple bars within the saloon) and get tipsy or drunk because I get these happy hours from them (2-3 hours of free drinks, who can pass that up? lol).

  • @jw870206 I went to a club called O'Malley's, also in Louisville. Not the best night. Why? First of all, the dumbass bouncer at the front was a total douche. He told me to either ditch my sunglasses in the trash or take them back to the car. I tossed them. I did get to dance a little, but after that it just wasn't cool. Then all the drunk sluts got up onto one of the bars and were flashing their shit to everyone, and guys were touching them. Then two of these hussies got into a fight on the bar.

  • @jw870206 Let me tell you, that was classic. I laughed my ass off. Other than that, though, that place can kiss my ass. I'll stick to the smaller dive bars where it's more about having some drinks and being chill than it is about grinding up against some girl you just met or blowing your eardrums out to the generic rap and pop music that's being flooded over the radio as of late where everyone sounds the same because of auto-tune. So, in conclusion, I salute this rant. There is hope, after all.

  • I never been to a bar.

    But I always had an idea of how crazy it can get from the stories I've heard.

  • I don't go to bars because my neighborhood is full of crack whores and pregnant teenagers.

  • don't go to bars because I don't drink so it really wouldn't make much sense for me to go to a bar if I don't drink

  • I get drunk and dance with girls that are out of my league. When i get buzzed, i become more outgoing and i guess my confidence makes it easier to ask girls to dance. PS I'm a big guy too. That's why i'm so suprised these girls will dance with me.

  • We have one bar in my town. It's a small little bar where mainly rednecks come to. It's called Negs.

  • bars? meh, you can get waisted with your buds, its much better than being there...

  • i agree with you about bars

  • ppl taking pictures? Were they making the horrendous duck-faces? I can so imagine that being popular in bar/club culture >__<

  • butt nugget!

  • Could have sworn that said bras. 

  • i will now use the term photo bomb for randomly jumping in photos :D

    thank you for making me lol, everytime

  • Drunken paint-balling is fucking awesome!

  • @MmmScruplez i know! The smell gives me a headache when i go in. Hey, maybe thats why the abercrombie employees are so stuck up and act like fucking idiots, like how the like sales girls like say like like every two words. Its because the fumes kill so many brain cells.

  • Dresscode? Egotistical cunts posing and swinging their dick in the street? Expensive drinks? Having to listen to someone else`s shit taste in music? No thanks. I prefer to have "fun" in the daytime when most of the bar cattle are still either asleep or at work. Sadly, most people feel forced to partake in bar culture because it`s one of the few places where meeting a potential spouse is relatively easy. I`m sure some really nice bars exist but it`s just not my thing.Maybe if I was an alchoholic.

  • @ButcherWing369 Agreed all the way. Not that I don't prefer the night life, but I spend that by touring around a busy city. It's fun to see the lit-up streets and buildings. Bar culture is not my thing either. Some clubs are okay, and I like my sweet wine. Other than that, I'm a morning nature-hugging lovebird with a nerdiness for museums and galleries.

  • @JTeamjesters Yeah, I`m probably just slightly bitter that I don`t fit in with the crowd lol. I do enjoy the atmosphere and energy that nightlife can project but I can`t tolerate being amongst it all. It`s all just a bit too much for me to handle. If I`m near any music or people I don`t like I have to get away from it.

  • @ButcherWing369 Oh don't worry, you're not the only one. I'm not like my collegiate crowd either. I get really agitated when someone mentions bars. I rather spend my time alone with my "good" music of smooth jazz, classical, or other of my miscellenious collection, corner myself with a book or artwork, and I'm in my happy place. When it comes to night life, I don't stick around for long; sometimes it scares me. Don't feel bad to be "out" of the crowd.You won't regret it in the future :)

  • LOL not all bars are like this, once again gineriella your from jersey, everything is different in Jersey. Not in any offense, but its the truth haha.

  • I go to the casino and play cards :)

  • Eh, I don't drink so I don't really have a point to go to a bar.

  • bars are gay unless ur looking for sluts or getting into a fight. just buy drugs and hang with friends

  • I Just think your personality isn't suited for bars and clubs. You're more of a dinner and a show kinda girl in my opinion.

    The reason people enjoy bars is because they just let themselves go and enjoy the moment, but you're not someone who seemingly can do that.

    Personally i am with you on this one.

  • Trust me, the fist pumping is not unique to New Jersey. EVERYBODY fist pumps to that song, no matter where they're from. Douchebaggery does not discriminate.

  • @curtis222 i live in washington state and have been to clubs, raves, and bars all along the westcoast. California, oregon, and WA. Even when 'shots' comes on there is no actual distinguished fist pump like in New Jersey.

  • I belong to a private club. Cheaper drinks + no overly obnoxious regulars to contend with.

  • I'm a nerdy bastard so I don't like bar scenes :/

  • OMG, I sooo totally agree with you! You know, in my single days, I went to a bar only twice, and twice to a night club-- and it was NOT fun. The first time was awkward because, well-- it was my first time, and I was not used to the creepiness. The second time wasn't fun either. Or the club, it was tiring. I'd so much more prefer staying home reading a book... and now that I'm married, we'd rather stay home and cuddle, or watch YouTube videos. :) We don't like bars. We TOTALLY agree with you!

  • I've searched the earth and found someone as interesting as K80blog.

  • I dont drink so no bars for me.

  • I love your videos, but you should stop doing the random auto zoom thing. It's REALLY obnoxious.

  • Drunken paintballing sounds fun.

  • 1:21-1:27 i didnt know u had arthritis, i hope u feel better

  • that bar tender is a jerk!!!

    way to turn me off from bars(though i was never really ever go).

    I don't go to bars.... too young.

  • Nobody Photobombs like Michael Cera, lol.

  • You rant about everything, it's amazing/hilarious. You're gonna rant about how like, your kitchen table isn't good enough to suit your dining needs. :P

  • I worked at a college bar for 3 years, and the stories I could tell!!

  • STFU PLEASE!!!

  • you photo bomb as well, best time to photo bomb is the prom

  • I would rather go to a bar then a club! I HATE dancing.

  • @morganthedog1 i like dancing, im not a artistic or really sexy dancer. I just like to dance to the beat however way i chose, and whomever will dance accordingly to their capabilities and go crunk and outta control with me. If you let yourself go, and not worry about being a good dancer, having people watch you, ect... you will have alot more fun in the long run. With or without the alcohol induced coma they call 'nightlife'.

  • I watch your videos and laugh. Lawl. :)
