i was with some bosnian friends at an absolutely terrible club on the upper east side, horrendous, a load of drunk people crammed into a room, it felt like the one club in a provincial english town, all the people with nothing in common except that they were in that part of town and didn't want to get home yet, waiting for ten minutes waving $20 bills to get a drink, security throwing out wasted girl-harassing young men, some guys who looked like they should be in the Sopranos standing behind a red rope, and two girls in glittery thongs walking along the bar and dancing, literally looking through her legs with a shaking arse in my face trying to finally get the attention of the barman, loud 80s cheese on a nasty soundsystem, making the peace after my bosnian friend told some girls to fuck off because they were annoyed he was dancing into them
