I have $500, a backpack, and 3 days in Hong Kong, starting Monday, with nothing to do but wait for a visa (which means I ain't leavin'). Aside from standing around the Tsim Sha Tsui 7-11 eating Doritos and browsing the suitcopywatch collections and trolling Wanchai in the vain hopes of meeting someone who isn't a prostitute or looking for one, where are some fun, up-all-night places to go that involve cheap alcohol and good company for a 20-something?

I'll be in Hong Kong this weekend, just a short 2-day visit on Friday and Saturday, and I know virtually nothing about the city. I want to do a couple of the touristy things (harbor cruise, Mt. Victoria), but also some out-of-the-way-coolness. Any suggestions?
