how about: “may the fleas of a thousand dogs infest your home” btw, what parent in their sane mind would allow their child to go to the Dome? Have you been there lately? Oh wait you’re old…oh and as for an asshole stealing your kid’s coat, well how pathetic…I don’t blame you for being angry but thats the type of crowd the Dome will attract…trashy pathetic people, btw, are you too poor to afford a dollar for coat check?
Wow….For one, if the child was at the dome then obviously they are of legal age and able to make decisions for themselves.Tis the season for being ripped off it seems – karma WILL get them.
Considering that its “The Dome”, have any of you considered that this is a MILF/Daughter combo? Makes sense to me.
I have a real hard time having sympathy for anyone that goes to the dirty do-me.
So if this person was sipping $50 bottles of wine at Seven or similar fine eatery would you then feel sorry for them? Interesting logic.
I do hate throwing out blanket statements, but if you can’t distinguish between the client base of Seven and that of the Dome then a person shouldn’t be going downtown in the first place.
To A, Carnate and Raoul: What a bunch of nasties you people are, Is it because you’re so miserable about your own lives you have to shit on someone who writes in to express the benign and inoffensive topic of their dissapointment about their daughter’s jacket being stolen? Get a fucking grip would you!!!
^^^^ please learn to read what Raoul wrote as you’ve clearly demonstrated that reading comprehension is not your strong point. Let’s be proactive and actually prevent crimes from happening instead of being victims and just reacting to a crime.I believe that if you were going to a place like Seven, they would ask if you would like to have your coat checked, whereas the Dome does not offer that level of service. You pay for what you get, and in this case, since it was Wed night at the Dome, you got ripped off (your daughter did). Moral of the story: Coat check or better yet, keep an eye on your personal belongings at all times when frequenting establishments that attract people looking for dollar or cheap drinks.
Thanks Mike for taking the time to read and understand what I wrote. NMH, perhaps you should try your own advice on for size and while I’m at it …. Merry Christmas!Agreed, coat check is the way to go when out on the town. Why so many people are adverse to dropping $2 on a coat check when they might drop 10, 20 or 30 times that on drinks is beyond me.So if there is no sympathy for someone who has their jacket stolen from the Dome then where, mayhap, is a sympathetic location to have your belongings stolen? I didn’t know there was a protocol for sympathy.
I have no sympathy for someone going to the dome on wednesday to get stinking loaded drunk. That’s the only reason anyone goes to the dome on wednesday.And again, as the coat check is a dollar (the same amount as drinks) maybe you should be giving your daughter more of an allowance because for some reason she thought that rum and coke was more important than her jacket.Raoul, I guess seeing how people conduct themselves at the dome is the reason why I have no sympathy. I’m no hypocrite, I’ve been there, I’ll be there again (although I usually stick to cheers… not that its much better!) and I suppose my outlook is, there’s no reason why you should allow your jacket to be stolen. If someone at say, the keg had their jacket stolen, I’m assuming it’s because not because they crammed it into a dark corner because they’re too cheap to foot a dollar for a coat check, but because someone turned their back/went to the bathroom and returned to a table sans jacket. I’d certainly have more sympathy for the keg victim out for a family dinner than the dirty daughter/mom combo in skanky clothing trying to pick up guys together while stumbling around pissed drunk on dollar drinks, if that helps clear it up.
I need to proof-read, I put the word “because” in a sentence 3 times, two of which didn’t make sense… 😛
To Raoul, I’m really sorry, I didnt mean to include your name, it was Cranky I meant to address. I agree with everything you said, so I really do apologize. And Mike, my reading comprehension is just fine thank you, so chill out with the insults.
I was only kidding, but the situation I described is plausible, have you been to a mall lately? Maybe I don’t get out enough but do Moms out there really think its cool to dress like their teenage daughter and go shopping with them?Anyway, yes, it sucks to have a nice anything stolen.
I worked at the Dome and I don’t agree with a lot of those negative comments about it! If you don’t like it, fine! STAY HOME and keep it to yourself! As for the person that stole the jacket, Karma WILL get you!! But please, keep your opinions about the establishment to yourself. A jacket could be stolen from anywhere, a doctor’s office, your own work, and any nightclub or restaurant! The point is, yes, it’s horrible that your daughter’s coat was stolen, especially at this time of year! HOWEVER, had she taken care of it in the first place, it would not have happened!!
