Much like the Oracle, HipGuide answers visitors' tough questions here.

Pet the Pet Peeve
Q:What could I do that would really annoy you?

-- "Sara D, Houston TX"


A:Sara

Why?
It's getting too hot to think straight down there in Texas again, isn't it.
We should tell you so you could bug us?
Wanna drive us nuts?

Just ask us where to throw a bachelorette party for 40 on a Saturday night in a major metropolis at a hot spot with velvet ropes where you want tables but don't want to pay a cover. And oh by the way, the bridal party is not chic and will be wearing jeans.

Better yet, wait for the first time you meet us, hopefully one night after we've worked 12 hours to provide you with all kinds of other free advice, say a city guide, maybe after we've just ordered our first "we're not at work" drink.
Yup, just ask us.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

WHAT do we LOOK like! We're not bridal party planners.

You asked!
THIS is our number one pet peeve.
We don't know! And we're not going to do the research to find the impossible of impossibles for you!
Call an event planner.
We track only what's hot and cool.
This does not make us the end all be all phone directory, walking Google function of event spaces.

Let's see.
It's the equivalent of asking a librarian to write your thesis for you.
Of asking a cab driver to deposit your check for you.
Or asking a bartender to teach you to cook.
Maybe we could do it, but it's rude and we're not going to.

See.
Doggone it all.
Now you've made us crazy.
