I hate New Years eve

I hate the fact that pubs charge £25 just to gain entrance! I also hate the fact that the entire City is filled to the brim with drunken trendy idiots all out for a fight because they can't take their drink!
 
My mum doesn't drink and the past couple of years hasn't been out with me on new years, and I've always ended up at family events, so cue Auld Lang Syne and I'm all alone, I don't hate it but I've really not liked it the past few years.

I'm at a house party this year where we all intend to get ridonkulously merry, playing poker, watching Jimmy Carr, trampolining in the dark, all a recipe for a good time imo. :)
 
nah it's great. everyones out for a good time. A lot of pubs don't charge. So just avoid the ones that do. Most people are far more friendly on NYE and just out for a good time.

It's great.
 
Everyone is expected to have a good time.When in reality most are drinking themselves numb to hide the fact that their lives are indeed dreadful with their mundane jobs just days away.

And the cycle of life continues again and again and again.

You obviously haven't been out for NYE here in Stoke! The last three times we've ended up in A&E with friends who've been attacked by drunken thugs. Nothing says "happy new year" more than sitting in the emergency room whilst holding a mate's severed finger in a glass of ice.
 
nope never been out in stoke. been out plenty in bristol. TBH most 99% of the time yu can spot trouble makers and just avoid. the only exception, is when someone for no reason launched a glass bottle at my mate. Which ended up in hospital.

But most the time, people who get in the trouble don't do anything to avoid it either.
 
I don't see the point in drinking at any occasion. Birthdays, christenings, weddings, christmas, NYE etc... The odd one is fine but some people just go OTT and use any excuse to get plastered.
 
I was in a taxi one New Years and somene through a brick in the Taxi window covering me and 3 mates with glass.

Having each eyeball cleaned by a eye specialist at the Hospital was not my idea of a Good New Years night out.

Then to be told I had scarring on my retina just put a dampener over the whle evening.
 
Yes I hate it, and the fact that nobody is actually celebrating the new year at all (as if there is anything to celebrate about it anyway!) they're just using it as an excuse to drink too much and act like bloody idiots.

Isn't that what Stoke is like every weekend though, it seems people from there are a bit 'weird' and generally angry inside judging by the football fans I've seen from Stoke when they play my team.

Hahahahahahaha. You could carry on thinking like that...or you could just go and have a good time like everyone else.

There's a time and a place for philosophy matey, surprisingly enough a lot of people aren't drinking to hide the fact that their lives are dreadful. My life is great right now, which might be why I'm well up for a good night tomorrow.

I won't be shedding any tears for you while you sit at home feeling glum, and telling yourself everyone else is out and about because they need to fill some major void in their awful awful lives, and I'm rockin' out to Erol Alkan, having a boogie, and chatting with all my mates.
 
I agree some people will be glad to see the back of 2007 and will be hoping for a better year, I know i'm not sorry to see the back of 07. But as already said why some people see it as an excuse to act like tools is beyond me. Then again all the above incidents could be any saturday night as far as i'm concerned.

I've been out drinking a lot of times in the last 14-15 years in stoke on trent and never had trouble, it must be where you drink to be honest.
