    Well, buck, I've never paid for anything in Vegas. Always comped or won enough to cover. But Damn, that's a lot for drinks anywhere.

    Yeah, I remember the feeling.

    Oh, recently I paid $8.25 for a Seven & Seven at a local steakhouse. Needless to say it was the only one I drank.

    Did that back in May. No shaky handwriting because this is the third one I've paid cash for (first over $25K, though), but still a deep breath or two.

    But dayamn, doesn't it feel good when they start to ask about financing and you say, "gee - I was just planning on writing a check." I wish all you young'uns that same feeling someday.

    A Seven and Seven? Did you take your date home and fuck her on her plastic-covered couch? Damn, you're old.

    Hey, don't knock the plastic-covered couch. You pour some baby oil on that and it's like the Playboy Grotto, minus Fred Durst masturbating in the corner.
     
  10. I once unwittingly paid $12 for a Long Island Iced Tea - which is even more than what I paid for a Hurricane in New Orleans. I ordered the tea in South Carolina when it was against the law for bars to use anything but mini-bottles, so I ended up paying for all the bottles of liquor they stuck in that thing.

    Got a nice buzz but it's the reason I only order beer when I go out now.

    Shit, I've paid $9 for a domestic bottle of beer.

    Those strip clubs just gouge these days.

    Within a one-night, not-necessary, non-bill-paying way...

    No. 1 — I was drunk. In a casino. In Puerto Rico. (Bad times when I saw the credit card bill)
    No. 2 — Picking up the bill for dinner and drinks at The Precinct in Cincinnati as a a college student. (Good times when we got to the apartment) (Bad times when I saw the credit card bill)
