Side note, I hate it when my post is first on a new page because then EVERYONE will have to read it each time they come to post. And ugh, that just makes me feel bad.
 
I will be the token sober friend! :D (I don't drink.)

I just feel like I need to take a bunch of pictures and document my experience, since maybe, you know taking a guess here, most everyone on here aren't big party goers.
Treat it like a documentary, with you infiltrating the mysterious party tribe to observe and document their ways.
 
If you do not drink at this party, you will have an unfair advantage over your countrymen.
Try to be tolerant of them as they slip deeper into inebriation.

If I don't get a face in my boobs (which was all fun and games and no one was offended nor did I need to punch somone), like the last party I went to, I'll consider this one a success.

Because in my experience, no one in the convention is drunk.

I know what to expect when it comes to space, what I'm unsure of is behavior, especially since con's have strict rules. Parties? Not so much.
Most of the larger parties I've been to where alcohol was served did not involve many drunk, out-of-control, people. There are always a few in the crowd who make asses of themselves, but they are the exceptions and not the rule.
 
I have been to large house parties (around 80-100 people) where there has and hasn't been alcohol, and in either case, my biggest complaint was it can get too loud to talk sometimes, and occasionally hard to find the people you do want to talk/hang out with. I'm a fairly social person and have never been a big drinker (the only times I ever have more than 1 drink are in tiny gatherings when I'm staying over anyway), but I usually prefer parties that max out around 40 people, tops.

When I was single it was a bit more fun to have a lot of people in case I was [ahem] looking to meet someone, but even then, it can still come down to being hard to talk/meet up in a huge group.
 
Ehee! My best friends asked me to design tattoos for them! :heart: (They knew I wouldn't get a tattoo, but wanted me to be involved.)

My ideas were received really well and...just a general yay! I feel like a happy friend.

Also, I feel like it's been a while, since I've offered, but hey free hugs from me to anyone who needs one today.

My goal for The Dame was a Tad Polish was roughly 50,000 words. It looks like I'm going to make that goal, as I'm hitting the home stretch at 40,500 words as of this writing. I don't know what it is, but I feel like the writing in this one is better. Maybe it's that I'm not juggling near as many characters as City of Smoke & Mirrors. Maybe it's because this book is shorter and more focused. Or maybe it's having one book under my belt and I have some idea of what I'm doing this time around (Spoiler: I really don't. :p)

Still, I just finished Chapter 20. Chapter 21 is titled "It Got Weird, Didn't It?"

And boy, did it ever. :D

No, no, no. *plugs ears* La, la, la! I can't hear you. Cartoon Network is not going to turn PPG into a bunch of villains like they did the Teen Titans. NOPE!

Search your feeling pigmentFez, you know it to be a possibility! Where instead of being the smart capable leader, Blossom will be a boy/candy obsessed bimbo who is so dumb she needs a robot to help her with her homework! A character who could understand prime numbers at fucking FIVE turned into a character that needs a robot to study!

Turning them evil won't happen. Ringo Starr wrote the reboot intro. He'd raise holy hell if they went evil.
If they do it the way the did the Titans, they'll still call them the good guys, they'll just do such awful things for the sake of the "jokes" on the show, that they might as well be evil villains.
 
And they'll give Buttercup ice breath, just to annoy the fans who remember that that was Blossom's power! Actually I thought that was funny, they can totes do that.
