As one who must regretfully say that I've been into both establishments, both are rather good at separating you from your money.

Normally the show is much better at the strip club tho, YMMV...

THIS

both nickle and dime you to death. At least Catholic churches generally don't tithe you 10% any more but the special collections add up.


That they do, but at least the Catholics don't water down the booze.

Um... I think I know what club that is! It's called Club 390...

Oops! Just read another article, appartently it is NOT Club 390. Never mind! :)

littlett's: It seems that there are a lot of uncomfortable people at either place. Some of which just look lost, others are just a little bit too excited.

True, though I would say that the ones in church are generally 'cleaner' and the ones in the strip club are generally less hypocritical.

Why would I expect that? The people at the church are almost all religious people (or drug there by a religious person). Why would I expect them to be *better* than anyone? They already have one major count against them.

"After the man started helping out his strip club friend by paying some of her bills, Klootwyk allegedly learned his bank account information and began using his funds as her own."

I'm still amazed by the lack of security around our bank accounts. All you have to do is remember a single 10-digit number, and maybe an address. Worst case scenario, your target's mother's maiden name.

It is a very rare bartender that doesn't want to see me come back. I used to be one and if you have spent time behind a bar you know how to take care of your own. Actually dated a stripper for a brief period while I was mixing in Myrtle, but I learned my lesson there quickly.

I would say that you are correct.

Also the conversation in a strip club seems to be a little more light hearted. At church, especially with older folks, it tends to be more serious.

This "stripper" thread is sorely lacking in pictures of strippers.

Here's a dollar befitting of a strip club... now show me some thongs and boobies damn it - I'm stuck at work!

Over here in St. Louis the churches are the most segregated establishments around. I've pointed to more than one regular churchgoer that my strip club is more integrated than their church. They absolutely hate having to think about this. Some black women come up with the "I just need some time apart with people like me" answer - to which I understandingly nod and say "like white people and their country clubs, huh?"

madblader: But you also meet crazier and most definitely uglier people (especially the hideous dogs you call women) at church than the t-t bar.

I can only assume you don't go to church much. Religious views aside, as long as it isn't an exclusively old folks church I can't recall having gone to any that didn't have a good number of hotties. There is a lot of church hate here, and most of it is usually deserved, but you are just wrong about this one.

Actually, you can get the best of both worlds at a Pagan Festival. Religious and ready to go.

Ya must of liked living dangerously, I glad for you it was short. I hope it didn't cost ya much ;o)

I have stripper friends even they joke about it.

I would rather a stripper take my money and use it for her kids, school or blow rather than a preacher take the money and buy more Armani suits and Cadillacs.

Um, the behavior described in the article is 100% consistent with women you can meet at church.

You must really like living dangerously if you regularly have frank discussions about race with black folks in St. Louis.

What about strip church?

If I had to choose between the two, I think I'd go with the strip club. At least I have some idea of what to expect.

When I think back on a couple of crappiest human beings I'd ever met, one was a minister and the other a chuch elder.

I am 100% in agreement with you. (Okay, I mean to say "THIS.")

Man, this thread has been disappointing thus far. I'd post pics, but conducting a GIS like that (at work) is probably a bad idea.

/Step up, unemployed Farkers

Apik0r0s: Would give my money ten times over to a stripper rather than a Jesus freak.

At least the stripper probably won't be using the money for hookers.

If you really, REALLY need a drink, Catholic churches offer wine before noon on Sundays.

Strip clubs do pay taxes.

Only 86 posts? Geez. Most of Farkdom must have taken the day off work to get a head start on their Monday hangover. I'd have figured this one to go off the charts with people defending teh strippers.

Somacandra: Actually, you can get the best of both worlds at a Pagan Festival. Religious and ready to go.

This. I'd rather listen to pagan rambles about the solstice than the dogmatic rants of a churchgoer anyday. At least the pagans don't waste their time aggressively trying to convert you.

Plus, a lot of the pagan chicks I've met are pretty hot and are more likely to put out. Can't exactly say that about the Xtian women I have met during my adulthood.

Yeah, those were some crazy days. It's funny though, to this day my buddies cannot fathom why I don't like going to strip clubs.

What the hell? A lot of the people at strip clubs are "good church-goin' folk". I've met more crazies at any church than I have at a strip club. The guys at strip clubs are just drunk.

The clubs are fun, then again I was friends with some of the girls and regulars so YMMV.

The drama is hilarious when not its not happening to you. Even the sane ones (those not seeking trouble or drugs) have drama follow them around like a dark cloud.

Billy Ligue, you've done it now...

I met my wife at a strip club, so I'm getting a kick...

/she wasn't a stripper
//she worked the table dance desk

stickindamud: I met my wife at a strip club, so I'm getting a kick...

I met my wife at a brothel.

It was kind of awkward because I thought she was home with the kids and she thought I was out having a beer with the guys.

waypat68: I would rather a stripper take my money and use it for her kids, school or blow rather than a preacher take the money and buy more Armani suits and Cadillacs.

But in the case of this dude, it was both. WHY CAN'T IT BE BOTH?!

The clubs were fun in my 20's when I knew the girls and the game.

At 39 and married, not so much.

That drama bit is true. Because of my work and my old ways I have been in clubs from Montreal to Tampa, LA to NOLA and Vancouver to Mobile. I have seen it all, but I have never, ever met a stripper that should not be avoided like the plague outside of the club.

True for 99.99% there got to be a couple out there that are decent once they have been deprogramed. I had plenty of fun in strip clubs too. The game is much the same where ever you go. Hell even the club owners get wrapped up in the stupidity.

crazytrpr

Sorry, that should have read "When I knew the girls and played the game." Missed a rather important word there.

Amazing how many clubs around the country are owned or run by former dancers.
