You walk into City Beach or some other "trendy teenage shop" and walk right out again as the music is too loud and " I can't hear myself think"...

If you don't drive somewhere on a night out in the city you spend the rest of the evening stressing that you won't get a cab home...
or
You look forward to a roast dinnner more than a night in a trendy bar
