Hey! It's an amusing crosspost!
Yeah, what Kristen said. When I was young and went to bars for the sake of drinking, it was always dive bars. I could drink alone, and no one would bug me, unless it was friends also seeking the cheap comforts of home away from our own liquor cabinets.

Hey! I asked a legitimate question! Have you ever been off the bean since I've known you?

I like all kinds of bars from swanky to themed to dives. They each have their own flavor. As noted, dive bars do have the advantage of cheaper prices.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I got Juliana this book [link] as part of her housewarming present, and Amazon shows you can get them for NY and Chicago too.

A year in Maine and other shorter periods of time. (For the record, 2 days is a period of time-- it counts!)

Plei, my sistah!
My friend K and I used to go to this great dive bar - oddly enough, it was across from Bloomingdales - it was always empty and so cheap! You could drink all night and not need to take out a personal loan to pay the tab.
As opposed to, say, the bar at the St. Regis. I will always be profoundly grateful to the unnamed millionaire (and the bartender who conned him into picking up our tab) because he enabled me to still eat that month.

Thanks Msbelle.
I think Kristen and Plei should come visit me and the dive bars.

I like dive bars because they are unpretentious and usually not full of stupid people. I am just as fond of the neighborhood bar.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What's the difference between a dive bar and a neighborhood bar? I feel like they're both kind of dirty and cheap and like the kind of thing that I like. Until they get overrun with hipsters, and then I'm pissed.
