You’re allowed to say strip club on the internet believe it or not.

I like ‘midnight ballerina’ more though! Sounds delicate…

u/jeepsaintchaos 18h ago

I didn't connect the dots and thought it was something really cool, like goth ballerinas dancing to Korn or something.

You may be on to something there.

RIP Jumbo's Clown Room

u/LogiCsmxp 13h ago

They might actually do that some days, just with less clothes than usual for ballerinas.

u/LifeguardDry7372 17h ago

I'd pay for that. Although Korn might not be appropriate

The best stripper I ever saw danced to living dead girl. Sure were the good old days. Now they've closed all the strip clubs near me except for one and it's....it's not worth going to let's just put it that way lol

I appreciate your taste for delicacy, vaginadeathsquad!

u/bullfrogftw 19h ago

Me too, I find it hilarious, and I worked in strip clubs for a decade

u/thejoeface 19h ago

I also worked in a stripub for a decade and most of that time I used ballet flats so I also really loved your title

u/Intelligent-Hunt7557 18h ago

Guessing “stripub” was a typo? Would patronize a strip-pub tho!

12

u/meesta_masa 13h ago

I'd rather patronize a strip-pizza joint. Just women walking onto the stage wearing pizza slices and tossing them at patrons.

u/thejoeface 9h ago

Lmao yes it's a typo

u/Practical_Maximum_29 6h ago

Honestly, most of the strip clubs I ever visited were basically pubs with strippers/dancers. I think stripub is less of a typo and more a reasonably fairly created portmanteau!

It didn't really apply to my club since California doesn't allow alcohol in full nude clubs. But we were a pretty comfortably small club that had a dedicated group of regulars.

u/HighwayApothecary 19h ago

it did make me think it was a reference to Swan Lake though

u/SGM_Uriel 17h ago

Made me think it was a burlesquery or something

Username checks out. LOL!

u/-GoodNewsEveryone 16h ago

You're also allowed to say otherwise without pointing it out believe it or not.

People who make their whole personality policing other people's word choices are a whole new level of cringey as all hell.

Anyone using this censored language gets a downvote from me.

u/bazderoman 16h ago

i mean it's creative, at least it's not str!p mall

u/OneValkGhost 16h ago

Brains are important things to use.

u/EmbarrassedAnnual66 11h ago

Then you are the one policing language choices.

u/Zran 8h ago

Yeah but as a title it would get suppressed for sure.

I literally cannot stand self censorship cowards.
