Prom Night

[a completely inoffensive name]

My prom night is tomorrow. Give me suggestions on stuff to do at the dance (dance moves etc...) and I will do it. Or give me advice, either way its a win-win for me.

[pevergreen]

Pop, lock and disregard females, aquire currency.

[ICantSpellDawg]

Get hammered and then get kicked out. Also, complete alienation of your date is a must.

Depends on who you're going with.

[Rhyfelwyr]

Sit in a corner with the drunk people. Well that's what I did at least, for our prom-equivalent.

[Centurion1]

i just had mine. dude dancing for us involves standing behind your respective lady and letting them do all the work. there is no skill involved just dont like hump her

Edit: any of you oldtimers remember the days when dancing required real skill.

I'm 19 and I remember.

Yes. You know how to dance a waltz?

Behind?

I tend to want to face the lady in question.

I'll make that my advice.

[Centurion1]

Yes I can waltz I took lessons once.

I'm talking the American grind here gentlemen the staple of our high school repertoire

[Hosakawa Tito]

Don't puke on your date.

Classy.

[pevergreen]

Classy.

If you see a person under 40 dancing any other way in a normal event (prom, nightclub etc) they are weird.

Thats the social norm. Personally, I hate it.

Maybe we're just not quite as bad here, or the girls I know aren't as bad.

*Shrug*

[Ice]

Go with someone fun. If you follow that one rule you will enjoy prom.

[Strike For The South]

Just get hammered and hit on everything with legs

Unless of course you're one of those couples that waited to make it special in which case there is no advice I can give except to rub one out beforehand and wear compression shorts.

Good Luck

Nightclubs are pretty awful if your a female here. A women dancing by herself seems to be a cue for a drunk guy to go up and basically grind on her in a way which suggest minor sexual harassment. It's the main reason girls are always found in groups, protection in numbers. Unless their a major whore with no self respect, then they usually welcome such advances.

Then again I guess nightclubs in general are only really fun when your drunk. I mean most people wouldn't consider standing in a crammed room, with the stench of sweat lingering in the air fun unless they were drunk. Even worse, the dreaded nightclub toilet. Those places are a nightmare, at least round here. Full of drug users and excrement, yes, it is as bad as it sounds. One place which is pretty popular in the nearest major city to me actually has a shared male/female toilet. I will never forget that place, and not for the right reasons.

:laugh4:

Don't take my words on this subject as 100% true, I've never been in a nightclub...

[Rhyfelwyr]

We had to do celeidh (sp?) dancing here.

Which I managed to skillfully avoid by sneaking round the back at lunchtime and then sitting playing Pro Evo on the balcony above the lunch hall while everyone was dancing below. Good times...

I remember at 17-18 a girl basically using me like a dancing pole. Wasn't sure how to react, after a moment of enthusiasm I decided it wasn't for me. Today, most girls I know enjoy me flinging them around the dance floor, then reelling them back in and wrapping my arms around them. If you want to be more, ahem, riske you can do it without being obvious.

Just having a girl rub her backside against my groin doesn't appeal at all (at least not in public).

You missed out, silly boy. I love the grand reel, trying to time it so you get the girl you want when it stops :beam:

[a completely inoffensive name]

Thanks for the ideas guys. I'm going with my girlfriend and I agree with Philip completely about grinding. I really don't like it and I think it is nothing but a way for teenagers to stick it to the school by rubbing each other through clothes in a mass orgy. Not for me.

But then again, I think the majority went with getting smashed and Strike has so much experience I can't not do what he says. No this isn't supposed to be a "special" night.

Keep the ideas coming, im not leaving for another 2.5 hours or so.

Be cool (relaxed), don't drink too much. A good rule of thumb is to drink at about half the speed of everyone else.

Yes, I know you kids aren't allowed to drink over there. I also know you probably will be.

So, trust me when I say that there are few things as unattractive as being blatted when out with your girlfriend.

Don't worry Philip, alcohol is not for me. I've been ignoring peer pressure for 4 years now, so I really don't care if people give me **** over not drinking.

Oh, don't get me wrong, a little is a good social lubricant. However, if you don't drink tonight is not the night to start.

Refuse graciously, though.

[a completely inoffensive name]

Well I'm off to get smashed and grind on random girls! Bye!

[Centurion1]

^ thats my boy.

Argh. I hate places like that. It just ends up a mess.

[Hooahguy]

really? i would think that places like that would be awesome.

[naut]

really? i would think that places like that would be awesome.
No. Not really. What they usually are is a bunch of shared cubicles and shared wash basin space. But, as there are either no or limited urinal space it ends up being urine central, with it all over the place.

[Hooahguy]

ah. i thought it would be like making-out central or something.

[pevergreen]

ah. i thought it would be like making-out central or something.

:laugh4:

Thats just dirty.

Why make-out in the bathrooms when you can make-out on the DF.... =)

[Subotan]

A unisex toilet in a British club on a Friday night is most certainly not awesome

[Hooahguy]

privacy?

if i was in a unisex bathroom, id be sure to unzip my pants well before i got to the urinal... :smug:

[Beskar]

In Japan, the girls ask the guy out.

I wish I was in Japan. Far easier to turn some one down than to get turned down yourself then get tarred as 'desperate' if you dare ask some one else.

[Centurion1]

Turning people down sucks. I wish only dudes askded girls out but nooooooo sometimes girls just have to ask

[naut]

Hmm. I've had maybe one or two chicks overtly ask me, and then a few that were really overt compliments. Usually they ask with their body-language, you can tell what their response is going to be before you even ask. Personally I kind of like it when they ask, very refreshing.

Well, not all of us are amongst the best looking members on the org Pyscho.

:laugh4:

Best thing I have is a crazy almost cultish girl trying to convert me...yay? :confused:

Awesome. You should have gone after her. The crazy ones are the best ones.

Everytime I read your posts, I don't know whether to slip into "grrrr, feminism!" mode or laugh. xD

It's not just a heterosexual thing either; women can be prone to doing it to other girls (usually unattractive ones hassling the 'lipsticks'), and I assume the same applies to male-male situations also.

I've never seen a unisex toilet in Mancunian nightclubs, but they don't really sound pleasant; boys shouldn't be privy to our toilet conversations! ¬_¬

Go read any of my threads on girls. They feature a very crazy girl. Well, she isnt crazy anymore, but she was.

[Centurion1]

im just saying saying no really sucks. you feel terrible about it.

[Strike For The South]

Yea but you should be able to tell and try to avoid/be non confrentational

As Rythmic alluded to most girls pretty much tell you there life story through body language, coincedentally this is also why they are bad poker players.

[a completely inoffensive name]

I'm back. Didn't get drunk but I grinded on my gf. I figured I would try it out. It's a fun dance for obvious reasons, but not when you have music loud enough to make you deaf and literally no space to move because there are 200 people all around you crammed on a small dance floor. Also, jackasses kept almost ruining the dance by attempting to have sex on the dance floor. I had much more fun being off to the side of the mob where the smarter (AKA not likely to start having sex on a dance floor) AP students were dancing and I made an ass of myself by just doing a bunch of funny dance moves with my friends and gf.

i do and i never do it publicly thats for ***** little girls, but the girl is going to feel bad. and dealing with the friends..... ugh.

dude dancing with a seething mass of humanity is the best part man. moj pits here and there, grinding on people you dont even know, etc. its invigorating.

sex on the dance floor though, ewww dude just ewww.

I want to criticize this, but I don't have any rational argument against these actions. I guess all I can say is you do your mass semi-orgy thing and I do my personal, intimate thing.

[Centurion1]

But why can't we have a bit of both can we all agree slow dancing needs a bit of refinement?

There's slow dancing which I love when I'm with my girlfriend. There's regular lets have some fun dances where we all do stupid stuff for laughs which I love doing with anyone. Then there is grinding which is never singular but always in mass orgies, which I don't like doing with anyone.

It's weird, I'm the biggest social liberal in my school to my knowledge and I honestly think that others should be able to do all that kind of stuff and more if they are responsible and safe. But I see that stuff for myself, I'm honestly disgusted at the sight of 200+ kids who are all going to be voters in less then 6 months acting barely above animals like that. It's just...terrible for me and it makes me want to stay in my room and play video games because if that is the "social life" everyone tells me I need, then I honestly choose isolation.

If you want to have sex, have sex. If you want to dance, dance. Please don't mix the two as much as possible, although I will fully defend your right and ability to do so.

I find myself fully agreeing with ACIN, again.

Gah! Reading this thread makes me happy that my prom was pre-digital camera, and that there are no pictures of me in my fugly prom dress floating around on the internet! It seems like "dancing" hasn't changed much since my prom. There was the usual grinding. Our poor attempts at slow dancing were really just excuses to stand in place and make out. :tongue2:
