What's Your Edge
Three of my friends and i took a trip thurs-sun this week to Columbia, SC. One of our friends moved away to SC a few months ago, so we are here to visit. The weather sucks here today, but it was nice yesterday so we laid out by the pool for a bit.
We woke up, ate at Waffle House (always been a goal of mine), then drove around the town a little bit. I got a pretty good amount of work done during the late morning and afternoon, as most of my friends went back to bed or to the pool. Later I got a workout in, then we went out for dinner at this place called Mellow Mushroom. After coming back home and drinking a fair bit, we headed out to some random college bars. The cab ride over was unbelievable, this young cab driver had a laptop mounted in her car with a huge list of music videos. She let you pick whatever you watned to listen to, and then asked, "do you guys like loud music??" We were like, sure, and she proceeded to blast music so loud that my body was shaking. It was cool to watch the music videos on the laptop, tho.
We bounced around to like 4 bars, then felt mildly old being 23-24 in bars with kids that are mostly 19-22, and came home around 130. If anyone has good suggestions for dinner or bars around here, let me know, we'll be doing more of the same tonight.

Columbia SC is a shithole...Clemson is way better obv.
Charlotte is the best tho imo.
Anyway as far as places to eat at down there...anything downtown that's really busy is always really good but service usually sucks. Sorry I'm not more specific.

Im 21 and go to school at USC. For dinner, go to Gervais street, which is the Vista, and try Sakitumi for sushi, or Liberty for regular food. For bars you either have 5 Points which is the younger scene but good bars like Sharkys, Red Hot, or Bays if u dont want all the freshman. Dont go to jungles. The Vista is kind of an older crowd, more expensive, Clubhouse is good. I would say go to 5 points if u want to party more. Have fun in Columbia.

I think Speakeasy is the place to go in Five Points, but that's just my personal opinion... just don't hit on my girlfriend if she's there ;).

Davidson, do you play live at all around Columbia, I'm 23 and just graduated...
and that is annoying that I didn't read this until now because I was getting drunk downtown all weekend.

Bojangles in Ahoske, oh soooo good. OK I want to say something that I know a lot of people are thinking....Can we please retire the following:
IMO-Do you really need to say this? If you are saying something, obviously its your opinion! Way overused.
Baller-This is just a gay term from the get go.
Ship it-Old,used, needs to be replaced....
Thanks for you time people.

I grew up in Columbia. You should go to Maurice's for BBQ. Goatfeathers was a popular hangout back in the day, dunno if it's still there.
Oh, just noticed you were only there through Sunday. Oh well.

Is it bad if I root for the athletes of other countries to fail? Like hoping the gymnasts fall off the uneven bars? It's pretty funny to watch in slow motion when they do...

I got to college at SUNY Delhi but theres nothing to do so a lot of times i drive 20 miles to oneonta to go to parties and bars and such. Last night just happened to be one of the craziest times, i got completely shitty at my friend from poughkeepsie's house playing some civil war and a game called hockey. Then my roomate and i went to meet up with his x girlfriend who was at some frat and soririty only party but we were allowed to go. After tons of punch and wilin out we went to the bars where my night ended in mad jeagar bombs and so co shots. I lost my rooomate and his x girlfriend and i wound up sleeping at somebodies house i dont even know. i went back today to get shitty again but i thought better of considering i still feel sick and i spent mad $$$. poker is going pretty good too but ill post an update of that soon.
