Bars/Clubs that play good music and probably won't check ID? and Q about foreign IDs

[azureee]

Yes, let's all just chill and disregard the rules whenever it's convenient for us. That's the right thing to do for everyone involved. Right?

One word. Prude.
You've blown this completely out of proportion. How about you get off your moral high ground and take that pill like I said. Sounds like you really need it.

Being able to drop well over half a million US$ on a pad for you and your sister to live in while you go to school puts you in something like the top 0.2% of the world's population by wealth. That's "rich" by any reasonable definition.

yea, but millions of people live in places without clean water, shelter, health care... and aren't you better off then them too? Well I hope you are at least, cuz yea I am richer than millions of people like in China, or Africa or developing countries, but it doesnt mean that I'm blowing off my parents dough on private jets and yachts. So according to you, I'm like in the "top 0.2% of the world's population by wealth" but the rest of the 99.98% are living on minimum wage, or less, and just because I'm wealthier than them, it does not mean I'm rich. And for some reason, you've been reading all my questions and posting things that are not even close to an answer.

Azureee and Boro Boy, thank you! That's very helpful And Sunfire, calm down, I'm just trying to get some advice here, if you have a problem with it, you really don't need to be a part of this thread.

You're putting me off coming to Hong Kong stop it...

I get the feeling that there could be a lot of Kates in HK am I right?

So how does one avoid the ex-pat brats and nouveau riche Chinese in such a small place?

Serious question folks..

...stay where you are, if you are "put-off" ...in my experience, there are "Kate's" in every cosmopolitan town/city the world over...and i reckon the "Kate's" contribute quite strongly to the local economy...were you ever young, and wanted to find out what the scene was like, before you were "old enough...?"

Kate seems pretty normal compared to a lot of the ex-pat brats in HK.

You can't avoid them unless you move out to the New Territories as they're pretty much everywhere on HK island and Kowloon side.

jimbo, yeah, don't go to HK then... i have no problem with that.

Touché. Maybe HK is not the place for you.

Sorry to disagree with your very convincing argument, but you're rich.

...HK [B]is[B]the place for me, or i wouldn't be here, pal ...
