You grew up and all your friends with houses have families?
Right? I’m sure kids are still having house parties when they get their first apartments and when their parents are out of town, but now that we’re all adults “house parties” turned into dinner parties and a quiet bottle of wine with a few friends
Additionally, there are more things to do as you get established. My friends and I have been camping, on roadtrips, on a cruise... at home we have parties for sporting events and our kids birthdays. Hell, I work in IT and we have midnight launch parties at my house occasionally.
I'm thinking y'all just grew up.
Take it from a noise control officer, there's plenty of house parties around especially during the summer, it's just university (for Americans: college) students far younger than me blasting music, sometimes at smaller flats, sometimes in large houses rented out by 5+ students. I'm not that old either but man, not a fan of that new party music.
I'm in what most would consider a medium sized town and there are manyy houses parties per suburb (even the quiet ones) during summer. They're around for sure, just attended by people under 25.
I'm giving off get off my lawn energy aren't I?
No, you give off normal factual energy.
It's the OP in the tweet who gives off get of my lawn energy. I don't get invited to house parties, they must not exist.
Wait that's a full time job? I can weaponize my misphonia?
Where I am I do mobile security patrols on night shift which mostly include site checks at various industrial sites and rest homes, and for this company also noise complaints on behalf of the city council
We get older, and many of us don't want/can't get lit and wake up at 1 pm the next morning.
It's fine that young people do it. And when we were young and partied, older people at the time didn't like our music either.
That's how it is.
Also general decline in social/conversational skills.
Nah more the introverts were finally free to turn down social invites from overbearing extroverts. Why do introverts always need to accommodate extroverts, but not the other way? Cant have a night in chilling playing games… cant always be clubbing every weekend… but no… thats boring apparently….
Covid really made it okay to say no to these people and that’s okay.
I am an introvert and I’m thankful for that. However, I still think people have generally declined in their ability to hold a good conversation over the past decade, regardless of whether or not they’re introverted or extroverted. I didn’t view that factor as related.
My comment was not an attack on any personal disposition.
I wouldn't say it was necessarily a drop, but you can socialize in so many different ways nowadays, so getting lots of people you don't really know/like together in your parents house is probably less appealing.
Lots of younger people don't drink nearly as much due to costs, so that probably factors in too.
Same for garage shows :(
There's a house down the block that blasts psychedelic jam sessions out the garage once in a while. I love it!
I only have a house. I don't want to have any parties in, you lot will make a mess.
That and people steal too much shit. Can’t have a party anymore unless you know everyone there.
Even when you do know everyone.. I threw a house party last month, and before it I went around and made sure any prescription drugs were locked away. You just don't know who secretly has a pill problem..
I think people always stole shit though.
In college we had apartment parties regularly, no need for a whole house to house a party.
For me, it's more about liability. If I provide you liquor and you get drunk and drive home and kill someone in an auto accident, they can sue me. Hell, you can sue me.
Could sign a release form? Like Dennis Reynolds in IASIP
Got a house. Don't want to trash it. Cause then it's all on me to get if cleaned up again. Fucking responsibility.
We still do once a year, invite only or know someone with one. I assume they all went this route
kid n' play grew up and stopped making movies.
Kid is 60 and Play is 62.
That's less house party and more home equity line of credit.
I thought I just wasn’t getting invited, but let’s go with this.
I've never had nor been to one. Are they not a thing as much any more?
You just made me feel the oldest. I spent 2010-2015 in a constant stream of house parties. And yeah, they're not. Our society has been really rapidly breaking down for the last decade. I'm not saying it's because of the rise of fascism, but they're definitely correlated. I'd guess they both have a similar root cause of a vanishing middle class as the upper classes steal more and more from society at large
Oh, I'm old, I'm just not social.
We have assembled inside this ancient and insane theater to propagate our lust for life and flee the swarming wisdom of the streets. The barns are stormed, the windows kept, and only one of all the rest to dance and save us with the divine mockery of words. Music inflames temperament. When the true king's murderers are allowed to roam free, a thousand magicians arise in the land.
Where are the feasts we were promised?Still happens but not as often as people get older.
