club politics post danah-akon scandal

i walked with my drivers license friday night because i know that i look 16 on a good day and 19 when i'm all tricked out.
and i wasn't about to torture my feet in skank-ho heels that night, so i knew it was a 16 year old night for me.
well, as i expected, the bouncers checked. and i had to rhyme off the date cus ontario drivers licenses are kinda scarce in the caribbean. who knew?
inside was quite amusing.
one of the reasons why i didn't wear a more revealing top was because a student told me that she saw me at the (same) club the last time i was there. she was giving me a compliment, but still. it made me a little uncomfortable.
however, thanks to 15 year old danah's shenanigans that became an international scandal and a joke for the americas, clubs are actually being vigilant about asking for and checking ID. (for now)
which means that inside the club was a mega sausage fest.because on a good night, there are men of all ages there in addition to underage girls and women. without the jail bait to balance the scene, the male presence was more prominent. and to quote my friend, it was not just a sausage fest, but a "wrinkly, dried up" sausage fest. yep, grampas were out in full force.


-------in other related news,
i learned something about group vs individual dancing. and i've developed a hypothesis about it. hopefully someone will challenge me on that. i'd like to know. but more on that next time.
