I unironically miss those days so so much.

I was 21 years old, and actual night clubs were still a thing.

In University, still living with my parents, so fuck all else to spend my money on from my part time job in the Sears men's wear department.

You couldn't have told me back then how much adulthood sucks in comparison.

Are night clubs gone now? If so, fuck. That's saddening.

I don't know if it's everywhere. But from what I can tell, these new generation of kids just don't go out clubbing anymore.

Lounges, Bars, etc.... are still around. But in the city where I grew up, for example, the good old fashioned loud music, strobe light, dance floor, shooter-girl "night clubs" have all shut down.

Well I mean, the average wage for an American under 30 is $0.34 a year, and any club or bar has a $900 cover charge and a 3 drink minimum.

Not gone, but less frequented.

airing out the smoke smell from your clothes before the next weekend.
