when i was a sophomore in college, we threw a homecoming party at our house (3 kegs). it was a pretty big party. later in the night, the cops came by. all my roomates locked themselves in their rooms and wouldn't come out. I was the only one left to open the door. (it would have been REALLY bad if the door was opened and no one who lived there answered). the thing is, the others were 21 and i was not and i was drunk. we ended up getting a noise violation, which was common for parties in the town where i went to school. when it was time to go to court, no one in the house made time to go with me (of 8 girls). i agreed that we would do community service but as the alloted time went by no one seemed to care or make time to do it. so i went back to court and when they asked why we hadnt done it i basically said we were slackers and requested a fine in place of the community service. fortunately, they all gave me their share of the fine. but it was a shitty experience.

+1. i didnt realise how stressful it was. you couldnt relax, b/c you dont want stuff to get ruined, but you also want to make sure that it is going good, that your guests are happy, etc.
we were planning another party, but are waiting for the summer time when we can use the backyard, that way, people will stay outside and any mess wont be that bad....but now we know what to do...

well i think that's something you have to bear with when you're making a party, and i think people don't drink/eat/brake everything in their way purposely, it's alcohol, it happened to me many times, and now im trying to avoid making parties at my own house :>

yeh, ive thrown a couple that have gotten a little out of hand. i don't mind people that i don't know showing up, as loong as they already know someone there and just want to chill. now, when mother******s i don't know start going inside my house for no reason, or thibnk they can just enter my kitchen, i begin getting pissed off. my FRIENDS ask me before going in the house or taking something from the fridge, but fucking strangers think they can do it as they please?
cigarrette buts all over the lawn and terrace floors, when i got ashtrays all over the place. empty glasses all over the place, when all they need to do is put it on a table. meh. this is why i stopped throwing big parties and now only respectful friends (and as money hot women as god permits) are allowed.

So my house had a housewarming party. I invited a few people, I just moved here a few months ago so I didnt have that many guests, and my housemates invited lots of people. So it was pretty big party, one of my housemates got pretty drunk, puked, had his eyes rolling in back of his head so we called the ambulance. he was fine afterwards.
so my point is this....have you ever had a party where there were just rude people and they have no respect for the house or anyone that lives there??? we cleaned this morning and i was just astonished that people go thru refrigerators and pantrys and eat and drink whatever alcohol there is to be drank when it isnt even their house????
and it wasnt like we didnt have anything offered, there was chips and dips and we had some alcohol, but it was mainly a BYO party.
i dont know maybe i am just overreacting, but it really sucks when you spent money on your food for the week and now it is all gone....
oh and the music was total crap...
You just have shitty friends. Make nice ones.

At one of my mate's house parties there was about 60 people there and he put me in charge of making sure people didn't get too out of hand. There was this one girl with a bottle full of water just pointlessly squirting it all over the carpet. When I asked her what the hell she was doing she just said "Oh, it's only water". So I snatched the bottle out of her hand and drenched her. "Oh, it's only water." Then I told her to get the fuck out of the house because she was dripping on the seats.
She wasn't too happy. Stupid bitch.

I think it's a bit your own fault. you invite friends for a housewarming party, with little alcohol, to make things even worse you let you friends invite their friends (who you prolly even don't know).. anyways what's a good party without alcohol, you could have guessed on your own, that they would look for it after a while
hope you had a great time
