Instead, bouncers' job is to make you feel insecure and rejected for no reason.

Only bad ones at bad places. I used to be a bouncer for years.

I was a guardian of "you" and my bartenders. I got you home safe, got rid of sexual predators and creeps, and gave you a light for your cigarettes and joints even though I don't smoke either anymore. Someone to chat with at length when you were just there because you had to. I suppose I would boost the occasional self-esteem too :]

I would also beat people up and sometimes pepper spray their mouth and eyeballs if they were violent assclowns. Such is life!

I was only being half serious. I was mostly referring to "trendy places" that profile patrons, often racist etc. I do know many good bouncers at good establishments and they try to filter out dangerous people, like drunk/high dudes or bachelor/ette parties.

Glad to hear your safe from all those!

Is this the beginning of a horror movie?

Sounds like a typical "I reach you my finger and you take the whole hand" kind of situation

I'm no longer insecure, this guy SUCKS at guarding my insecurity

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 13 points 6 months ago

But... he took the insecurity away from you, and he'll hold onto it until you are ready to leave the club, at which point a different comment will give it right back, to you and only you, and even with interest.

Omg I can't believe you actually bought that line I said when you went in - you are such a dweeb, next time just stay home dumbass!

So does he suck, or is he a master at the game? :-P

He guards insecurity in the same way that a sneeze guard guards sneezes.
