I would not trust any seafood (a) served in a buffet and (b) that far inland.

Remember that time you hit Vegas, ate some bad buffet shellfish, threw up for a couple hours, and missed the Blue Man Group show? Here are 10 reasons to consider yourself lucky


Without RTFA, I assume "not sitting through the Blue Man Group show" is somewhere near the top.

What a Blue Man may look like:



/I just blue myself

Remember that time you hit Vegas...

I've been there over a dozen times subby, and I can barely remember anything after the off ramp from I-15.

That article was f-ing dumb.

I felt compelled to say that.

At what point did listing inane crap become the most popular format for writing on the internet?

Jonathan Hohensee: At what point did listing inane crap become the most popular format for writing on the internet?

The moment you started posting on Fark.

Is this a sponsored link? 'Cause that was REALLY f*cking stupid.

Really? A list of Vegas movies?

wow! I never knew Leaving Las Vegas was a sad type of drama!
I swear I thought it was an action/comedy kinda movie all this time!

What would we do without movies to warn us of dangers that exist in a fictional world?

The last time I went to Vegas it was a spur of the moment road trip with a couple friends and the girlfriend of one of those friends.

It ended up that there were no hotel rooms available, the girlfriend ended up throwing a biatch fit, everyone was miserable, and we drove home. By the end of the drive I'd been up for 30 some-odd hours and was hallucinating as I drove. It was awful.

Somehow though, I ended up marrying the girlfriend a few years later.

/cool story

No mention of Diamonds Are Forever, Sean Connery's silliest James Bond outing (until Never Say Never Again)?

There were only two things that made that film tolerable.




/well, yes, technically, four things

I'm pretty sure The Cooler took place in Reno.

How does that work - marrying a girl your buddy spent a weekend banging in Vegas?

Do you guys still talk?

He probably still regrets it. And not on account of the friend.

Bucky Katt: If you go to Vegas see Penn & Teller

This.

The only show worth seeing (I've only seen a few, but as a straight guy, I'm pretty sure I'm right).

Agatha Crispy: How does that work - marrying a girl your buddy spent a weekend banging in Vegas?

We drove up, ate some crappy food, failed to find any rooms, and drove home. Nobody got any banging.

Not that they never did of course, just not during that particular trip.

Agatha Crispy: Do you guys still talk?

Sure. Nobody has any hard feelings and everyone involved is much happier these days. They were a miserable couple.

Sigh, ignore my previous post, it was in Vegas.

I recommend 2 shows to friends who come to town:

Love and
Penn & Teller.

I almost forgot. I recommend they smoke some weed before the show - either one of them.

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of uppers, downers, laughers, screamers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.

mediablitz: No Nicky Santoro in Casino?

Not just Nicky but all the lead characters (and most of the supporting ones) ended up badly. (And Casino was conspicuous by its absence from the list.)

In the casino, the cardinal rule is to keep them playing and to keep them coming back. The longer they play, the more they lose, and in the end, we get it all.

I like this guy's take (new window) on buffets in Vegas

So I says to him, I said "Get your own monkey!"

I can't tell you how many times I've overheard some group of tourists, ready for a night on the strip, say "Bro, The Hangover is SOOO US!!!"

Please, if you come here and have the urge to say anything resembling the above quote, just don't. Chances are you're not the hilarious group of misfits about to have a wacky adventure that you think you are. It's much more likely you're just another run-of-the-mill douche who will get completely wasted, run out of money, and be tossed from a casino for groping your cocktail waitress.

Also, take a second to look down and see if you're wearing an Ed Hardy shirt. If you are, please proceed to drown yourself in the Bellagio fountain.

Thanks.

List sucks because bad Las Vegas movies begin and end with the awesomeness and awfulness of:



Featuring lines worthy of Shakespeare like this: "If you want to last longer than a week, you give me a blow-job. First I get you used to the money, then I make you swallow."

PaulieVegas just took this thread out into a corn field, beat it with a bat and buried it's still breathing body in a shallow grave.

Very Bad Things left me speechless after watching it in theaters. I don't really recall much about it though, and I think if I watched it again it would probably be tame compared to what the internet has shown me in the last 12 years.

Came here for the Showgirl reference and I'm leaving quite satisfied.

I thought this was going to be about Vibrio vulnificus.

Probably NSFW, unless you're at the CDC.

The ending blew me away. I remember my friend and I getting dirty looks for laughing so hard throughout the movie, but the ending put it over the top.

Do so. It's most excellent.

Nicky Santoro: A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you're talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who's gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all farkin' night.
