When I go to a bar, I wanna chill out, relax and talk with people. The moment someone suggests we play darts/pool/ect.. the night takes a drastic downturn in fun, to the point I just wanna pay my tab and fucking bounce.

My local place had foosball.

I'm honestly amazed it hasn't led to a few murders.

Bar games are great for people with social anxiety to be able to relax and have a good time.

They're only horrible when someone takes them seriously. I'm terrible at pool, so I only like it as a means of just doing something while we talk and drink. As soon as it gets even mildly competitive it's like ewwww

That's fine for you, but other people like doing stuff instead of just sitting around. Especially socially awkward people.

These things. Plus, they're just better than doing nothing. None the games even stop people from talking. Unless, again, they take it too serious. I feel like conversation rolls smoother when you're also doing a lazy game

You gotta lean into it to let it be weird tho. If you just say you're not in the mood and leave it at that, they can say whatever they're gonna say and you just don't gotta play into it. I've never struggled with ending back and fourths by doing this. You can only respond to dead air so long. In the end, nobody you should care about will judge you for not playing a game. And if they do, who cares.

Pool and darts are great.

The worst part about pool is that nobody wants to just play one game and be done with it. They want to play like 10 games.
