No, it doesn't compare at all. There is no bus line that goes straight from the bar to my apartment. Hell, after 11:00PM, there are barely any bus lines running

No, it doesn't compare at all. There is no bus line that goes straight from the bar to my apartment. Hell, after 11:00PM, there are barely any bus lines running at all due to low ridership at that hour. And this is in a major European city. It just doesn't make sense to run a bus when it will only have 1 or 2 riders throughout its route. That's why it makes sense to have an individual car service. That's why taxis/Uber are doing so well.
