Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Enjoying Parties
If you're unfortunate enough to receive an invitation to a get-together, don't go out chopping firewood, lighting a fire, and then dramatically throwing your invitation into the garbage next to the fireplace. Instead, follow these handy party-attendance tips:
- Show up fashionably late—approximately 15 minutes after enough coats have been collected on the host's bed for you to hide under.
- Bring a small gift, such as a bottle of wine or a newborn baby.
- Hit the dance floor with as many hammers as you can to prevent dancing.
- Trade boring small talk for boring regular talk by having no opinion on anything.
