is this seat taken?

picture me.
at a party.
sitting alone.
probably looking dejected.
wondering where all the people i know have gone.
and if i should maybe go meet some people.
until some guy comes up and says, "hey." to which i virtually beam with relief.
"oh hi!!" i say, "how's it going?"
"um... ok... is anyone sitting here?"
"hu? why no! so what are you up to??"
"not much." guy picks up chair and leaves.
picture me.
at a party.
sitting alone.
and laughing hysterically.

That's what you get for going to parties! If you just sit at home by yourself you never have to worry about not knowing anyone.

And you're never disappointed when no one comes up to talk to you.

And you don't have to worry about getting dressed cause no one ever comes over to visit anyways.

And there are lots of other sarcastic reasons for not going to parties too, but I don't feel like listing them.

I went to my gay co-worker's birthday party and left before the "entertainment" arrived at 10PM.

Count yourself lucky.

At least he said "hi" before he took the chair.

I hear that the first time you go to a party you should take a chair and beat somebody with it. That way nobody will mess with you later. Wait... were you supposed to do that at parties or prison? Maybe that's why I have a hard time meeting people...
