Rounds are the best if you have like 3-4 sensible people.

I suppose it depends who you go with, Football and stuff, everyone drinks pints because they're manly, so a kitty works.

If you're going for one drink, with five people, fuck rounds. It's ok if you know you're going for a few, and there's 3 or 4, but when there's 4 couples and the girls want fucking Cosmos then fuck that.

THANK YOU.

Been accused of being a tight Scotsman because of this. Girls drink ridiculously priced cocktails at £8 a shot, guys drink pints at £4.50 a shot. Given the girls drink more of them, you get fuck all return for your massive kitty investment.
I don't force people to join the kitty and would tell any one getting a double priced drink to put double in. It is the easiest way to even out getting rounds though. And it means the prick who always goes for a piss or drinks his pint slowly when the next round is his does not drink for free all night. If you want to do a round then easy it is kitty time if you want to sort your own drinks out then that is fine.

Don't have a problem with my group of mates.

Rounds of ten people, maybe 5 or 6 drinks over a quiet night, blokes and birds, will pony up for whatever anyone wants. Next time round my mates who were out but didn't get a round in last time forcibly tell people that they didn't do that, and that it's their round.

Nobody skips a round. Ever. New members of the group learn very quickly that this is how it is, or they'll no longer be members of the group...



Edit: Kittys are shit. Used on stag do's only. Everyone gets a drink bought and drinks it or gives it to the stag. Job jobbed.

You're a tight Scotsman.

I seriously never worry about shit like this; I view it as general Karma, some nights I'd lose out, some nights I wouldn't. You have to keep an eye out for the serial pisstakers obviously, but in general, life's too short.

Our neighbours have decided to put some Xmas lights up on their hedge, and very nice they look too.

Only problem is theyre right below our bedroom window, and the OH can't sleep because they're flashing away all night.

To Scrooge or not to Scrooge, that is the question....

Tell them to turn them off at night because you're concerned about their electricity usage and its effect on global warming.

Me and the missus were talking about this the other night; apparently you're supposed to turn them off after 11. Personally I think the flashing ones are the preserve of complete dicks anyway.

Ask him nicely if he can just turn off the flashing, he'll probably switch the whole lot off.

You'd go to the bar and get a round of four cocktails and four pints if you're having a Diet Coke?

Utter bullshite.

Bloc Party have apparently removed Silent Alarm from Spotify, and you can't buy a copy of it anymore.

Wtf.

Well, you've changed the Rules of Engagement a bit there chief; can't really imagine a situation where I'd go out with four couples on my own and drink diet coke (I would imagine I'd be drinking heavily in that situation), ; but more realistically, if I was in one of the four couples, yes I'd get a round in even if I was drinking coke.

...and nobody would step in and be like "don't be fucking daft mate"? You drink with the wrong people. Non-drinkers never pay (in my opinion), soft drinks are small fry in the face of £5.50 craft pints and wanky £8 (at least, this is central Edinburgh we're talking about) cocktails.

Not actually the point. People may indeed say forget it, but I'd always offer and wouldn't get my panties in a bunch if they accepted.

I own it on CD

Besides the point, I think as a band they've removed it.

I would explain why but you're probably not too interested.
So why is it annoying if you still have it. I guess they dont get paid enough per stream to leave it on there. As its only points of pence or so for each stream.

And i never heard of them.

Because of the reasons why I think they've removed it.

It was their best album, after that, they made pretty shit music, like 2/4 of the band left.
