I Hate Trendy Bars

I hate trendy bars, dive bars are where its at. I wanna go into a place and smell the musk of failure, i wanna see wall to wall women whose youth and beauty has faded. I wanna know that everyone in the bar is packing heat and that a brawl could break out at anytime.

Rapey Eyes = Hilarious!

hey andy warhol, i mean campbellsoup...she waits no time at all. five bucks say you like trendy bars.

This pod is simply AWESOME!

Old English saying. If your not funny, don't try and be. If she wants more soul and less arsehole then leave London

This had me in hysterics even if I do like the occasional cocktail in a trendy bar. Well done!

The only good bars are dive bars!

Great! This is what current needs more of.

"rapey eyes"

haha, best description ever

I'm sure trendy bars also hate pretentious girls like you.
Also why trivialize a serious topic such as alcohol consumption. If the piece had been funny i would understand the wasting of 3+ minutes of air time.

Give me a grotty pub with atmosphere any day.

I just turned 21 and I was allowed in to a trendy bar. I was there for around 30 minutes had already spent what I would have spent on a case of beer and the gas to drive to the beach and a hotel for the evening. and was barely having a good time... no wonder all those people I work with are broke on monday. They go twice in one weekend.

This is almost the same over here in Brazil, Rio. Believe or not all that can be a bit worse, under 40 degrees Celsius.

Love it!

great pod and sense of humour

perhaps the only thing that is worse is the people that go in them to be trendy!!!

I hope that when you go out you support small individual bars and pubs don't let the chains get all the profit!

I guess buying from the smaller venues owned by individuals is the equivalent to buying organic at your local market rather than the supermarket.

i'll have to agree. trendy bars suck. and this video was entertaining to the fullest, thanks holly!

this video was fucking hilarious lol rapey eyes haha

cambellsoup1, sometimes people need to let out agression

Campbell soup, if she was to talk about things she likes how on earth would it be funny ? or even slightly entertaining , she's found a fantastic angle and she suits the style , she's doing something right if shes getting these episodes on telly , I suggest Holly you should do an episode about people who don't get it !

U should talk about things that exite you and that are fun and cool (to you). You waste alot of peoples time, especially your own, talking about something that you think is stupid or that you don't like. Pump up the positive, intead of trying to open peoples eyes to the negative. Cuz really. . . . who wins?

fancy you !

effing hilarious!

HILARIOUS

I CANNOT stop laughing until my stomach hurts...EVERY TIME I watch this video. Cheers, cheers, cheers. Please Holly, keep it coming. You are a genuine comic genius.

This was really cute. I like it.

The bar in itself is trendy. People always go to bars.

Trendy/cocktail/coffee bars - anywhere there are hipster hordes is a scary and odd place to be. Of course, the latest trend is to hate hipsters (and dive bars are hipster hangouts, too). Get a good pint at your local or, better yet - party with friends at home. Avoid the stupid and pretentious altogether.

As always, you have another awesome rant!

DUDE I REMEMBER THAT!

Nik totally got turned away from the velvet rope. He had mad hat-hair, though. Seana's brother, visiting from out of town, also got turned away. The problem was his touristy walking sneakers. I begged the bouncer, though, I was like, "Dude, no one's looking at this dude's feet."

Rapey eyes! Haha! Hillarious.

Dive bars for me.

I absolutely hate not being allowed in or getting kicked out of a damn trendy bar or club for not wearing a certain attire...or...wearing a hat.

Good, because my whole neighborhood is one giant, dirty dive bar. I'll let you know the next time I am organizing an in-my-dirty-neighborhood alcohol field trip!

Some of the best times I had in college (and some of the most interesting people I've met) were in dirty dive bars. It's a good time.

This girl sounds like a lot of fun to grab a beer with.

I'm not into dancy-dance thump-thump trendy bars, but I'll certainly go into one of those "dive bars" that are cultivating dinge but in actuality are, in fact, secretly much cleaner than they look. Does this or does this not make me Satan?

"What happens when it's trendy to hate trendy bars though?"

Once its trendy to hate trendy bars, then THAT'S when I'll start going to trendy bars.

Nice job, Holly. Really funny rant. I prefer the low-key quieter bars, myself. Pretty much a coffee-shop atmosphere, but with booze. Whenever I'm in a popular crowded bar with loud music and 15 minute lines for drinks, I head for the exit as soon as I possibly can.
