Fun ideas for my Dad's stag do

Because in my view it's portraying people with dwarfism as a figure of fun, to be laughed at and demeaned. The reason they do it is obvious, because they can earn up to £500 a night the same way an escort can earn money sleeping with men she has no attraction to. But this is derailing the thread so I'll leave it there.

Just because of this, I think I'm gonna get the lads to have a whip around for our next night out so we can hire a dwarf and post pictures just for you.

I have no business replying to this thread, as I've not been to Liverpool thus have nothing to add to the OP, but christ on a bike, some people...ffs, if they weren't interested, then they wouldn't do it, unless you're inferring that dwarfs have some sort of addiction or something that they need to feed?

I bet your parties suck.

EDIT: I've seen LotR and the Hobbit films and Dwarfs look like they love a good night out *and* money, so why the butthurt?
 
I agree. If someone routinely uses a drug to such an extent that they have developed such a large tolerance for it, they have a drug problem. Particularly when the drug in question is toxic, causes cancers and other diseases and can be fatal with repeated sub-fatal doses.

The worrying thing is a lot of people do. When at uni, so age 18-21 we could easily burn though around 23 units before even going out. Half a 70c bottle of vodka and around 4 pints.

Looking back its quite worrying as this was actully less than when there was an an site student bar at our halls of residence and drinks cost peanuts - £1 a pint, £2 double vodka orange
 
Silly hats with "antlers" on for you all, since it's a stag night.

Is there anything you all like doing apart from being drunk? For example, canoe polo (which is a thing and apparently quite big in Liverpool since they hold canoe polo tournaments there) would be a good laugh to some people and crap to others.

Your outrage at his reaction to the dwarf suggestion seems a bit exaggerated. He was annoyed out of compassion for another human being, and his annoyance was driven by his empathy for others.

You, on the other hand, appear to be annoyed because someone got annoyed. Very strange indeed.
 
At a recent stag do I went on one of the guys decided to get a dwarf for the stag despite him being pretty unhappy about it. What followed was a couple of hours awkward conversation between the stag and the dwarf in a relatively quiet pub whilst handcuffed together. Honestly it was weird. The guy even brought his girlfriend along which just made the whole deal even less funny.

To be honest, if people want to handcuff someone with Dwarfism to themselves for a laugh, they might as well go the whole hog and get a dwarf with down's syndrome and a stammer.

I really don't see where the comedy value is, and when I read the OP it was the first thing that struck me... "He wants to handcuff a dwarf to his Dad, because it would be very funny?" :confused:
 
Painballing is always a fun thing to do... just make sure it's not the night before the wedding :)
 
Been to a large number of stag dos in the past 5 or so years. Some in the UK, one in Miami, one in NYC, one in Prague, one in Tokyo, two in Singapore and one in Hong Kong.

Numerous events (paint balling, clay pigeon shooting, karting, hiking etc), all of them had one quintessential truth to them though. The highlight was always the strip/gentleman's club.

P.s : we did the dwarf thing in Miami. It was great fun for us and the stag.

You just took something that was a laugh, into a whole new dark place. What the hell is wrong with you?
 
I get the potential issue with the whole dwarf thing, but as mentioned we did it, I never felt as if we were exploiting someone who didnt want to be there.

The guy with us used to work throughout the week as a software developer, and used to do this to supplement his income.

Going back to 2011 I think we dropped close to a $1000 for his time. On top of this, all of his drinks and club entrances and travel were covered by us. For all intents and purposes he had a good time IMO.

I appreciate that, but I can imagine that most of the typical lads stag nights will just see the fun factor of taking the **** out of the "midget" especially when under the influence. Imagine being that guy handcuffed to some tools arm all night who has the sole intention of getting as drunk as possible. They do get paid well but we shouldn't exploit them in this way.

If this view makes me boring I couldn't give a **** :cool:
 
See if you can hire some bar babes, we've had them on a few stag dos they're normally strippers who do it before they head off to their club.
Good laugh, take you to some decent bars and easy on the eye.

Even better when one of the younger guys on the stag decides he loves one of them and we end up in her strip club later on and he almost ends up out on his backside by the door staff because he thought they had something special :D

Also 30 units is no great shakes over a days session, I rarely drink these days but can still put that away without coming close to death.

Also unless there's some dwarf trafficking I'm unaware of which forces them into jobs then it's their choice and they know exactly why they're being hired whether that's right or wrong, in the same way bar babes and strippers are using their physical attributes.

Dont think it makes you boring, and I do appreciate the point you are trying to make.

As mentioned, apart from the company you are with the highlight for me is always :

1)The venue(which city)
2)Which bars
3)Which strip clubs

Been all over the world it seems with stag parties, but the highlight for me was Newcastle. Fabulous city for a stag do. The stag is a hard core Schwarzenegger fan, and we hired out a screen and got Commando on the go, followed by Predator.
