I simply hate eighteenth street lounge

According to city guide 18th street lounge is supposed to be a great and exclusive dc hot spot:


"This ultra-hip club has no sign and a strict door policy. If you get in to ESL -- voted "Best Lounge" in washingtonpost.com's Best Bets 2006 Readers' Choice contest -- you'll find beautiful people, couches and some of the city's best DJs"


That is the biggest lie i have ever heard.


I've been forcefully dragged to 18th street lounge a few times this year. Each time I am amazed to find such a large collection of dirty and self absorbed hippies, free spirits and tree huggers. Why are these people not restricted to only travel freely in Adams Morgan? Is it safe to have them running around? Oh, 18h street lounge is also the home of quite the large number of international students from American University. Not the cute, intellectual upperclassmen - merely the ones who are still fresh off the boat. They don't know better. Give them a few more months to discover locations such as Josephine's on Thursday and FLY on Tuesday nights and they will soon leave behind the under-deodorized, unshaven, jeans-wearing 18th street lounge girls in exchange for the beautiful designer-dress-wearing European woman you find at the K street clubs.

So if your an idiot, or a tree hugger and you still wanna visit 18th street lounge its located at 1212 18th street nw, washington dc 20036...enjoy.
