10 Weird Things about Vegas

​Those comments might demonstrate my rather plebeian upbringing, but bear with me.

#1) Groups of ladies going out. They all are dressed the same. (dress/mini and wedges and same exact hairdo) Kind of strange.

#2) Back fat is apparently something to be very proud of. And flaunt.

#3) Back hair is apparently something to be very proud of. And flaunt. (dude, please, just…a shirt, that's all I ask)

#4) Trucks with mostly naked people depicted on them, driving up and down the strip. Marketing must work, or they wouldn't be clogging up 6 lanes of traffic with these rolling, gas-guzzling billboards.

#5) Tourists. From tour buses. I will not name ethnicities, but holy smokes, they're like lemmings, all grouped up, stranded on a traffic island, snapping pictures at -- what? the sky? lights? -- and then doing weird semi-glamor shot poses with their besties. 

#6) Lots of ambulances. Makes me nervous to walk around because if someone drops in front of me, I'm kind of obligated to help. There are a lot of ambulances going around here. Probably communicable diseases as well.

#7) Fake hair and makeup. And I'm not talking about on the ladies.

#8) My husband, an area 51 aficionado, completely obsessed about the Janet terminal. (If you know that reference, then you're just as much of a conspiracy theorist as he is. And you probably watch Ancient Aliens on the History channel. Which, by the way isn't really HISTORY, is it? Anyway.)

#9) Did I just seriously pay $3 for a bottle of diet Pepsi? Why yes, yes I did. And apparently, I said "Thank you". Ugh.

#10) Ok, so please don't judge. But how in the world are people ok with making bets of thousands of dollars, where more often than not, that money just >poof< goes away? I watched one guy at a table drop $25K and all I could think was "that money would pay for a lot of student loans and JCPenneys outfits". Obviously, I'm a real high roller. Yup.
