I like going out. That's no secret. Because I recently started asking myself why I go out every week, I was determined to find out. Here are nine points speaking for going out every week to make myself feel better.
1. The social aspect
For centuries the bar has been THE place to make friends. The vikings were constantly drinking with their fellow warriors. Of course they also raped and plundered, but lets try not to think about that for a minute. Today it's the exact same thing. You go to a bar, talk to awesome people, expand your network and stare at your next rape victim. Just kidding. Kind of.
2. Job opportunities
Lets assume that you don't get totally hammered when you go out (I know it's hard but stay with me) then you will start meeting people that know other people. Talk about your general interests and subtly make the point that you are actually looking for a job. You will most likely find job openings such as gigolo, hooker, stripper or personal slave, but hey, we all have to start somewhere.
3. Less stress
Just like masturbation, going out releases stress. No joke. When you go out you don't think about work. If you do think about work then you're doing it wrong, but who am I to say what's right and wrong. It's always good to go out and have a good time, except if your definition of having a good time is showing up at a playground in a trench coat with candy.
4. The more you drink, the more you can drink
Like being the lightweight that passes out at 11 P.M? That's what I thought. Going out every week makes you more tolerant to alcohol which means that you can have more fun and now YOU are the one drawing penises on other people's faces.
5. Coolness factor
Know any cool people that don't go out on a regular basis? Didn't think so.

6. Save money
This is a long term investment. In the beginning you will see your bank account half empty, or half full depending on what kind of midget you are, and you will start getting depressed and asking God what you could possibly have done to deserve this form of torture, but don't get discouraged! This is normal. However, once you have befriended the bartenders and bouncers you will start seeing the results. Bartenders will start giving you free drinks and the bouncers will let all of your friends, yes even the chubby one, into the most exclusive clubs.
7. Get laid
Of course the more you go out the more likely you are of getting laid. Not just because you expose yourself to a situation where getting laid is possible but also because the bar is now a wingman in itself. The more at home you feel the more relaxed you are which ultimately will result in girls thinking you own the place. Owning a bar = tons of girl. Pure science.

8. Time management
Time spent going out is time you'll never get back, but why would you? You had an awesome time! When you choose to go out every week you develop excellent time management skills in order to get everything done. If you know beforehand that you're going out then plan things around that. Going out is the most important activity in your schedule. Don't forget that. Going out is a great way to reward yourself when you have been studying for like an hour.

9. Remember your youth
You are probably more likely to forget it to be honest, but if you are party animal you will probably have more crazy, awesome and embarrassing stories that every body else. Who doesn't love the guy with the stories that sound so crazy that they can't possibly be true, but are. Remember: It's better to regret something you did than regretting not doing something.

Why 9 points and not 10 you ask. My answer: It's too cliche. Alright, maybe I didn't highlight the risks of binging every week but my general philosophy is that you have your whole life to sober up, so why waste your time being a buzzkill when you can have fun and make friends while you're young.
