Friday Night! Pick Your Poison!

Sup beautiful babies?
Tonight, I provide you with two possible options for doin' the damn thang on a friday night.
First off is "NO TIGHT PANTS", a dance party at the Khyber's upstairs room, located on 2nd and Chestnut in Old City. Option two is cheap drinks at Handle Bar, a cheap little corner joint on Frankford and Wildey, directly between Johnny Brenda's and The Barbary in Fishtown.
In order to try to keep things fair here, let's play the pros and cons game.

Khyber:
PROS
• awesome 80's/90's r&b and hip-hop.
• Old City location assures plenty of other crap to do afterwards.
• cute chicks love goofy ass dance parties.

CONS

• dance parties at The Khyber tend to be loud as shit. Good luck striking up a conversation with anyone/keeping the fillings in your teeth from being rattled out.
• Old City location assures plenty of horrendous skanks that are somehow simultaneously overdressed and underdressed.
• crowded. i prefer to keep my drinks in my mouth, not on some dude's shirt.

Handle Bar:

PROS

• $1.50 domestic drafts from 9-12. $3 well drinks. Can't beat a deal.
• Smoking allowed inside.
• The lovely Sharon is bartending.

CONS

• Maybe you don't like drinking domestic brews out of a cup? I dunno.
• Smoking allowed inside.
• It is kind of a scummy dive bar with all manner of unsavory characters/maybe your dad shows up.

Really, I have little to no problem with aforementioned cons, having a predilection towards scummy scumhole bars and weird old people. So you see which way I'm leaning, however, there will be other deciding factors involved (i.e. if my whiny friend who I'm taking with whines too much about there not being enough glitter or whatever at Handle Bar.) but now you've got your heads up.
Can't wait to see you there, wherever there may be.
