> In your case, you seem to not want to go directly from a strip club to a social establishment and get crunked.
I don't mind the partying, but even in a club, a lounge is usually more intimate and people tend to strike up conversations more easily. If a few people out of the group do it it's easy just to say "fuck this bullshit let's party!!!" and you can be relatively sure that the others will agree and the conversation dies. There are times though that people just want to relax and have "serious" discussion (especially if your life revolves around partying). And it's usually these times that I just want to turn off.

Oh and in case you were wondering, I don't usually go to strip clubs. One of my friends who owns a club was invited to check the place out and a few of us tagged along.
