Lest You Forget That Buckhead Saloon Is Thee Meeting Point For Philly’s Douche Class, The Situation Will Be Here To Remind You On Friday
Over Snowmageddon Weekend, we finally got to sit down and spend some time watching the Jersey Shore marathon on MTV — we were kinda tired of just hating these people for no reason — and here is what we learned: There’s a Snooki in every crowd — the braying, bossy chubby girl who can’t let anybody just be happy; Sammi Sweetheart is straight up damaged goods and maybe a little, uh, what’s the best way to say this, challenged to boot; Pauly D is hangin’ on to that Serato shit like it’s the only thing that understands him; Vinny and Ronnie are nice boys who will be the only ones to survive all of this just fine; and The Situation aka Mike Sorrentino is basically just a fucking timebomb sociopath. He’s the Spencer Pratt of Jersey Shore, but whereas Spencer has that whole American Psycho panache, The Situation just comes off as common street trash. This notion was confirmed when we got a press release announcing The Situation’s appearance at Buckhead Saloon in NoLibs this Friday night, in which he will… “appear.” We’ve written about Buckhead Saloon before, and if our impressions are correct, this is the kind of place where the bouncers probably have to break up a handful of douchebag fights every weekend — God, it’s like these things are becoming our primary export — so it’s only a matter of time on Friday before somebody (laudably) will try and take a swing at The Situation. For the guy who punched Snooki, it’d be a step up, at least. Maybe he should consider the drive.

You won’t catch me defending Jersey Shore at all. However, I have to say that the few times I’ve been to Buckhead it seemed like the sort of place I’d expect to be super-douchey, only populated with mostly normal people you could actually say hello to or dance with for a minute while your friend is in the bathroom.

Can you do us all a favor and figure out which place is “thee” meeting place for philly’s doucheclass? Tis be many o’ place that are “thee” place, so can we just list them all out already so one more new-to-philadelphian can make the right decision and avoid them all together? G, Strongbox, most of old city, Buckhead, Finnigans, Cavanaughs, Octo, etc…

Been to Buckethead once and that was more than enough. Some girl ordered a drink on my tab, just sort of assumed I would want to buy her one. Wtf? How can that even happen? Go ride the mechanical bull.
