Talking to people at bars and parties is a skill you can get better at, though part of getting better at it is learning your way through the awkwardness that happens every time
bars just…
u know. serve alc, mostly.it feels like one weird place to go and like its the wrong place to look for… nice smart peeps and more loud party kinda peeps.
That’s fair, I’ve definitely found plenty of smart folks there, just drunk ones. But I’m also a bit of a party girl myself. Ok maybe more than a bit… Go to the sorts of place you suspect the folks you’re interested in meeting go to. But don’t discount the bars and parties, I’ve discussed more literature at gay bars than you’d think, and there’s a certain vibe to a bunch of drunk lesbians gushing over The Dispossessed

Yes. Also, pub quizzes are a thing. I’ve met half of my friends on different kinds of pub trivia things.
