No thanks. With the way most “men” are these days, that sort of event is more along the lines of a bunch of dudes sipping craft beers and talking about “my wife this” and “my fiance that” while Coldplay is playing in the background, rather than mainlining cheap scotch and throwing crumpled-up dollar bills at overworked strippers. I don’t want to go to any sort of social event where I have to spend half of my time defending myself from having “so, when are you going to settle down?” claws sunk into my back, like I’m having an intervention from all of my 60-year-old female coworkers. To me, anything that is a “party” involves spirits being served with a ladle, the presence of at least one big game animal, and isn’t something I’d be able to remember after it’s over.
So to answer your question: no, I’ve never been to a party.
Back in the 70s I threw one for one of my friends. No one showed up. lol. I gave her presents, they later called off the wedding and she kept the stuff I gave her.
@sammydog01 Nope, it was out of my parents’ house, I still lived there. We were barely out of high school.
I didn’t have very many friends, that’s what it’s like when you move into an established community. My dad was in the service and he’d retired from the Air Force the previous year. We lived at Edwards Air Force Base for three years, then moved to San Diego County. My senior year was here. Lots of cliques, really hard to fit in anywhere.
I really thought she had more friends, since she’d lived here all of her life. I was wrong.
Uhm yes I helped plan a bachelor party for one of my best friends. We went fishing in the morning then out for burgers and beer than to a baseball game more beers and food .It was coed since the groom’s friends are coed. No stripper lots of stripers(a type of fish)
The last friend of mine that got married… I wasn’t invited to the wedding even. I was asked to dog sit.
So no parties for me this year. I don’t know anyone getting married anytime soon.
The only party I’ve been to was my own, and it was my own kind of personal hell. I was taken to a country bar.
The wedding shower was worse. It seemed like a normal party thrown by my mom’s best friend. Well, she decided to hire a stripper(without even consulting my mom) I was fucking mortified. He wasn’t even remotely my type, and if he was, I didn’t want a bunch of family there watching the dude grind all over me. I forced the guy to hump the lady that ordered him. She was pleased.
Never been to one before so don’t know what I’m missing lol
Bachelor/Bachelorette party is over rated.

I think the sun has set on that era of my life
@matthew So what you’re saying is if any mehtizens get married they should invite you to the bachelor party.
@cinoclav If any mehtizens get married they should invite me to the bachelor (bachelorette) party. I’ve never been to one.
/giphy sob
I got married this year and actively worked not to have a bachelor party. It’s just not my speed anymore.
I take it as my solemn duty to help the groom do whatever unspeakable act that will prevent his imminent servitude from coming to fruition.

our group isn’t the marrying type, so no. but i’ve seen plenty of bachelorette parties in the club nights i work at/attend. that’s more than enough.
@jerk_nugget You go to nightclubs? Nice.
/giphy thumbs up
@sammydog01 coop!

That was my last bachelorette party.
Good times.
@lisaviolet I would have come just to hang out with you and make snide comments about the bride-to-be.
@lisaviolet wait… The bride didn’t show up either?
@RiotDemon Besides me, she was the only one there. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gotten the stuff I bought.
@lisaviolet I hope there was liquor.

@RiotDemon Dog-sitting counts as a wedding gift, right?
@sammydog01 they paid me, and I’m such a nice person, that I did actually get them a gift.
I was really, really, hurt though.
