Posting a video of bust-up in a bar in the UK (?) is not really a helpful answer, but thanks anyway.

If it's not exactly when and where they want, they won't go. The only exception is birthdays. Your bday is the one time people will put up with not having a say in plans.

Hmmm. Good observation. I hate that we're like this, yet I know I can be this way myself

I'm just an insular American so don't know the difference. They all look alike to me.

Shall I post a "Girl's gone Wild video"?

Would posting that tell us all we need to know about the American women?

Please stop making a fool of yourself already. You're really exposing yourself as dim.

Finally, you've offered us your real opinion / answer to the original question.

Here, let's make this a virtual pub. No beer in fridge, unfortunately. I'll grab a glass of Riesling, you guys get yourselves a Guinness and we'll take it from there.
Oh yeah, some background music:
