  • What are the warning signs that you should leave a party? See all answers
    • Crying = time to leave the party

    • someone is crying
      This is kind of a bummer.


      there's no food or snacks out
      Maybe this is the 1/4 Italian in me talking, but social events = snack time in my mind. No snacks, no party.


      someone asks if you have a razor blade and/or mirror
      Yikes.


      the TV comes on
      There's nothing quite as party-killing as turning the music down, the lights up, and shifting focus from socializing to staring at a box.


      no one is shotgunning Tecate Light
      Well, this one isn't always true, but it's why I leave family parties pretty early most of the time.

    last item: can it only be tecate light? or can i shotgun bud light, natural light, etc etc? Tecate Light is just a little too high quality for shotgunning.

    What if staring at the box means playing Wii? Running out of food and drinks would never happen at my place. The 100% Lebanese in me would put myself on Time-Out if I ever let that happen. And Tecate Light is a must-have at any taco party or Cinco de September celebration. And it must be said with an accent and with one shrugging one's shoulders.

    Erika: That's true, but if the person is shaking, sniffing and looking rapidly from left to right I usually just head for the door.
    Charbel: Depends on the kind of party. In many cases Wii is appropriate (as it was on Saturday).
