oh my little man... my little little man... I can indeed own them... my blood and jizz make up that table top

7/19/2009 2:51:23 AM

when did the tequila shit start? after we rolled out?

7/19/2009 2:52:44 AM

yeah i guess...

all i know is, i was SHWASTED still when i woke up this morning. i had to call in to work, cause i was supposed to work a double. i ended up going back to sleep and slept until 4, went to work at 5 and am finally starting to not feel hungover...

starting

7/19/2009 2:54:53 AM

haha, well one of the hangover cures is to drink some more, so crack open another one!

7/19/2009 2:56:10 AM

soooo i think im gonna take my iPod back and go for the iPhone...

7/19/2009 2:57:05 AM

i thought that thing you hooked up was an iphone? or is that an itouchmyself thing

7/19/2009 3:01:42 AM

^^ how much music do you have?

7/19/2009 3:23:04 AM

were you there tonight?

shoulda said hi

7/19/2009 4:31:47 AM

i wanted to go there, and then i heard it was a hangout for hipsters and immediately didn't want to go there

7/19/2009 5:14:53 AM

it is. and that is why i can't stand that place.

it was already bad enough a while ago, but with the end of kings, it's the place where all the hipsters go now, with their tight pants and greasy hair. it's like some weird emperor's new clothes of a bar, where everyone says it's cool so it's fine that the place is an absolute shithole.

but hey, to each their own. the only time i ever go is when i have friends who drag me there when we're out.

7/19/2009 11:28:21 AM

is jackpot bourbon street?

7/19/2009 1:01:13 PM

Jackpot is the bar I go to 15 minutes before closing and manage to rack up a $40 bar tab.

7/19/2009 1:06:36 PM

ThePeter - I'm teaching yoga again (but not at state), you should come

7/19/2009 1:07:06 PM

aw I miss jackpot it's been almost 2 years since I've been there!!!

7/19/2009 1:18:00 PM

my favorite thing about the place is their GTFO music they play at closing

The reason that it's fine that the place is a shithole is that it keeps out most of the douchebags from downtown.

7/19/2009 1:29:48 PM

The reason that it's fine that the place is a shithole is that it keeps all the faggot hipsters in one place.

7/19/2009 1:32:22 PM

^^ hipsters are just as bad as douche bags from downtown

[Edited on July 19, 2009 at 1:38 PM. Reason : .]

7/19/2009 1:32:27 PM

yeah i really wouldnt mind seeing both sides of that debate catch on fire

7/19/2009 1:34:06 PM

I'd personally like to see a confrontation where the patio at Busy Bee meets the patio at Slim's. The douches have the high ground, but the punks have flanks to attack from.

7/19/2009 1:45:29 PM

rumble time

7/19/2009 1:48:11 PM

I had a good fucking time last night. Although, ThePeter and I were getting stared at by a lot of people because we looked 'normal'. At least the bartender recognized me after one drink because of my high and tight.

7/19/2009 1:50:02 PM

why exactly do hipsters drink pbr?

7/19/2009 2:16:37 PM

^ Cheap as shit. I drank PBR, but I'm not a hipster.

7/19/2009 2:19:22 PM

^ yeah but there are other beers that are cheap as shit that don't taste nearly as shitty. i just don't understand why an entire scene of people would choose to drink it to maintain an image.

Yeah, I recognized you, but didn't quite feel like bothering you and your DJ'ing.

I felt like a smoked a carton of cigarettes when I woke up though

I think one of the better things about Jackpot is the laid back attitude of everyone there. Good dive atmosphere

7/19/2009 2:27:23 PM

jackpot is fun! i love places like this & can't wait to go back

I think PBR tastes better than any other cheap beer. I think it's probably a matter of taste. As for the scene-sters, I don't have an answer.

7/19/2009 3:04:11 PM

^ i agree. I prefer it to pretty much anything that isn't an import or a microbrew. PBR>>bud light


i also think jp has a disporportunate amout of good looking chicks relative to some other places downtown

Slim's would beat the Busy Bee based solely on the fact that the owners and staff of the Busy Bee are Slim's people.

7/19/2009 3:16:09 PM

i do not like slims

you think jackpot is full of scene kids??

7/19/2009 3:17:26 PM

Have you ever noticed who goes to the Jackpot?

7/19/2009 3:38:54 PM

one day i'm going to go to jackpot before i'm too hammered to know i'm there

7/19/2009 4:36:24 PM

yeah, jackpot BLEW THE FUCK UP a bit after 12

like 12:30, the place was packed, when earlier it was stretched fairly thin

7/19/2009 5:02:23 PM

Some of the bitches there 'blew up' after 12 too.

7/19/2009 5:32:29 PM

i didnt go to the jackpot enough apparently.

i'll go next time im in raleigh for shits and giggles.

7/19/2009 5:35:41 PM

generally speaking, anything before 12:30 is early at jp

especially if there are shows

last night there was a rosebuds show in town, so lots of folks were at that, and then everyone rolled to jp including the band

i didn't know hipsters did this. whoops guess i'm a hipster!

and like others have said, i like pbr better (or at least just as much) as other cheap beers. way better than busch light and high life (imo). pbr and coors light are my cheap beer jams.

p.s. i did not go to jackpot last night. i was too hungover/tired from friday night. i was so drunk when i left on friday that i did not even write bartender josh a love note on my receipt and i usually always do that.

p.p.s sometimes i like being there when there isn't a huge crowd. perhaps i will go there tonight. i could use a cocktail or 10.
