am i weird?

Post by Fuzzy Fred »

i don't like going to big parties. admittedly, i'm kind of introverted, but i do like going out with friends, drinking, going to parties, but just not huge parties.

Yes.

;)


Just kidding, it's not weird to not like stuff. If you don't know most people at a big party it can be intimidating sometimes, especially if there aren't that many of your friends there. Basically, I hate them until I get sufficiently drunk that I can talk to anyone. :idk: Except sometimes if there are like no people I know, that doesn't happen and I just hate it until I go home.

I hate huge parties. I love small parties, though. Just a handful of people getting shitfaced. Hell yeah.

Unless it's one of those where I'm the only single one and toward the end of the night the party just ends because everyone went off somewhere to fuck.

Seriously. Fuck that.

Totally some kind of weird myth that people like big parties. I think everyone grows up watching movies and television where everybody is partying all the time but that's just not true, I think most people I've met in my life prefer hanging with friends to big parties.

In my experience, most people seem to like huge parties and massively packed bars/clubs when they are younger...and then seem to enjoy less crowded parties or bars as they get older. And that makes sense to me, as you have more to say and more interest in listening as you get more mature.

^don't listen to him. People are just obnoxiously obsessed with zombies these days (not trying to be a dick to whoever did say that, just hate Hollywood's conception of zombies. But that's another rant...)

More to say =/= more interesting things to say :p

lol, I like big parties, little parties, gettogethers whatnots, just so long as the I'm in the right mood for it. Sometimes I just dig being alone and brooding. Quantity of people is nowhere near as important as quality. If you're not happy at a party it might not be how many people you're around, it might just bet the specific people. The bigger the party, the more likely you are to find interesting people(assuming you know no one and have no idea what sort of people will be there).

Either way, get drunk, goof around, make out on a couple ladies and make the best of it. If it's not your thing, whatevs, you're not weird you have different preferences. Of course people who like being at big parties aren't weird either. I like being in a crowd because it's easier to get lost and not draw attention to yourself actually. Weird low self-confidence issues. :idk:

I didn't mean that I thought it was a zombified picture or something, he looks a little creepy in that pic and it was just a (bad) joke! :group:

Definitely agree about the mood thing, if I'm not in the mood I'm unlikely to enjoy being around any more people than 5-10 friends. Sometimes I am in the mood for a party/club, but then I'll gradually get bored of the shit music and not being able to hear anyone talking and I'll just leave early.

Yeah, on occasion being around a bunch of people is desirable enough to me that I'll put up with the bad "clubbish" or country (I live in a fairly rural area) music and idiots. Sometimes it just beats staying at home.

no you're not. fuck parties for real. fuck parties. fuck clubs. fuck dancing. fuck dubstep as well cuz i feel like it's tangentially related.

i fucking hate parties. i hate parties more than i hate most things. i would much rather hang out in a small group of people and drink casually then pound a bunch of shots then go to some party.

my friends who like parties only like them for the something to do/dancing/hooking up aspect.

What else is there?

monkeydancer, I figured that's what you meant. I was just being too lazy to explain it. I feel like I've been sounding like a dick when I don't intend to at all lately.
