Why the hell do people party?

[Doubting Thomas]

Because everyone needs to blow off steam and knock back a few once in a while. What else did you have in mind, bible study? Because the question as posted sounds like something a young Christian would say.

LOL, forgot about AC/DC's classic.

Some balls are held for charity,
Some for fancy dress.
But when they're held for pleasure
They're the balls I like best.
My balls are always bouncing
To the left and to the right.
It's my belief that my big balls
Should be held every night.


Sheer poetry, people!

Talking about parties....

I've always wondered how it feels like to be drunk.

Alcohol is a central nervous system suppressant, so the effect has been known to vary. As a general case, most people agree that they feel a bit "dumber" and more "sure" of themselves. The latter is why people drink, especially at parties, when talking to strangers can be quite intimidating. Some people feel "happy" or think they feel happy with alcohol, others become wildly emotional.

For the most part, you drink until you feel "buzzed" or gain a slight euphoria. Drink too much and you'll become drunk, aberrant, vomit, etc,. Some people drown their memory centers into oblivion using alcohol.

Personally, I prefer pot. Can't over do it (the worst you can do is either smoke yourself to sleep or be uncomfortably high for a short bit) and little hang over.

Some people (what I used to do) will drink and drink like fishes during parties, and then when one is nursing a horrible stomach ache, etc, they smoke marijuana to obtain the anti-nausea benefits, allowing even "my stomach is gonna hurl chunks" cases to progress through the night by transforming it into the "Stomach aches. Smoke pot. Wait hour or sleep hour. Wake up. Repeat until all alcohol is gone."

Hope this explains enough.

Just because dear Brian should get equal attention.

I can imagine you doing all those. But I'm going to just watch you make everyone jiggly and funky and I'll clap after it's over.

Thats cool man. In no way was my post meant to make fun of anyone who isnt extroverted, by the way. Some parties I go to I do exactly what you do.. it really depends on how I feel at the moment. Who knows I might be the one in the back of the room chatting with you. You wouldnt even know I was the entertainment until they called me to the stage.

I just kind of let the chips fall where they may for many things.

I know that. And everyone is different. Who really cares what I do?

Good question, but I never got drunk and I don't even want to. It's just not good for you. And not even cool.

Plus, I don't even drink any sodas. I don't like the gassy feeling in my stomach. Only water satisfies me the best after a meal.

Wait, did you just give an opinion on an experience you've never felt?

Glad that you like water. The rest of us are free to enjoy as much soda as possible.

Vodka looks like water. Except that it's poured into a pretty martini glass with tasty olives.

My favorite stupid juice. I prefer to stick to beer, but when I get the urge I LOVE screwdrivers and long island ice teas. Martini with an olive sounds good to me as well. Its a salad you can drink! LOL.

[thesummerqueen]

Dirty vodka martini is my party drink of choice. Cold enough to have ice flakes feathering across it and just a breath of vermouth along with the olives.

I might have to take my hot self downstairs and make one of those...

Not that there's anything wrong with beer. Revvy, you ought to bring the wife down here for a weekend. We'll hit up the Saucer. Beers. Wenches in short pleated skirts. Inappropriate conversation for Bible Belt restaurant. It'll be awesome.
