Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons?

Pub culture is definitely a thing in the UK though and I wish we had some of these neighborhood meeting places in the US too.

Fraternal/Sororal organizations used to be a big thing up to the 60s with the Elks clubs, Odd Fellows, Shriners, etc. We’ve lost a lot of that community glue.

Car centric urban design and pub culture are incompatible.

though alcoholism is bad, the lack of thirst spaces is a much bigger problem

  I can’t decide if this is a joke or a Freudian slip.
