Explain to me the desire to go to a ‘Dive Bar’???

Seems like it’s some big craze I hear people mentioning about a dive bar room.
“Ooooh I found this really cool dive bar!”
“I just discovered the best dive bar ever!”
“We have to go to this new dive bar!”
Tell me, OT, what exactly is a dive bar room? To me, calling something a dive always meant it was a dump. I don’t get it. A bar room is a bar room so why wouldn’t I want to go somewhere nice and not a dive?

Cheap drinks where you can get fricked up without running into anyone that matters.

This is pretty much it. Bonus points if the music suddenly shuts off upon your entrance.

Do you prefer diners and drive-ins?

Stiffer and cheaper drinks at dives.

A dive bar reminds me of the bars I grew up going to. Nothing fancy, usually a good jukebox, cheap drinks and you can drink in peace.
You may also run into some very interesting charactrrs.

There is a dive bar near my house. A manhattan is $4.50, and they use makers mark. Their jukebox made the list of best jukeboxes in america. And you get 25 songs for $5.
I always have a good time there.

Did you just recently start going to bars for the first time in your life?
There is NO substitute for a great hole-in the wall dive bar, if you cant appreciate that, there's nothing anybody can say

No frills, cheap drinks, great stories, interesting characters, some sad sacks at the bar stools, a flirty bartender, a smoke covered pool table, just enough desperation to make closing time worth it.

I grew up going to dive bars with my Dad and his buddies. Extreme low lighting, 8 foot ceilings, full of cigarette smoke, pool tables, and walls filled with posters of bikini clad women.
I don't see a down side.

Sometimes you’re better off dead
There’s a gun in your hand and it’s pointing at your head
You think you’re mad, too unstable
kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
in a restaurant in a West End town
Call the police! There’s a madman around
Running down underground
to a dive bar in a West End town

Because you're not an alcoholic.

Go to the end of my block, turn right and walk 4 blocks. Its on the right.
Technically its a lounge. Pete, the owner, told me its for insurance purposes.

The appeal is you get to miss out on the heavy douchebag crowd and bumping into people as you walk around. Sometimes you just want to go drink beer and hangout. For those times, the dive bar is for you

Cheap beer and since I hate people for the most part I can pretty much drink alone and smoke cigs inside.

I want to drink cheap drinks in a shithole that looks how I feel (but still has character) until I get drunk... Is that a problem???
