Honestly I can't remember the last time I did something on NYE...actuallly wait I can it was like 5 years ago. Being an adult with hardly any friends is usually not a huge deal since i"m pretty busy. But on nights like this I miss the old days, not that I was ever a real party animal or anything.

Anyway, who else is ringing in the new year at home? At least I have a new bottle of cheap wine to tear into.

Tonight is the anniversary of when I asked my wife to marry me 16 years ago. We are watching the addams family on the couch and I’m about to fall asleep. We haven’t done anything for New Years in probably 10 years. After a while it’s just another night. You aren’t missing out on much. Probably.

Back when Mark Wahlberg was Marky Mark
This is how we used to make the party start
We used to mix Hen with Bacardi Dark
And when it kicks in you can hardly talk
And by the sixth gin you're gon' probably crawl
And you'll be sick then and you'll probably barf
And my prediction is you're gon' probably fall
Either somewhere in the lobby or the hallway wall
And everything's spinnin', you're beginnin' to think women
Are swimmin' in pink linen again in the sink, then in
A couple of minutes that bottle of Guinness is finished
You are now allowed to officially slap bitches
You have the right to remain violent and start wilin'
Start a fight with the same guy that was smart-eyein' you
Get in your car, start it, and start drivin'
Over the island and cause a 42-car pile-up
Earth calling, pilot to co-pilot
Looking for life on this planet, sir, no sign of it
All I can see is a bunch of smoke flyin'
And I'm so high that I might die if I go by it
Let me outta this place, I'm outta place
I'm in outer space, I've just vanished without a trace
I'm going to a pretty place now where the flowers grow
I'll be back in an hour or so

I’m in bed, hearing fireworks alongside hooting and hollering outside. It’s 37 fucking degrees. My bed’s nice and comfy.

Yeah, HNY and all.
 
Dude, it’s just another day. I was redoing my resume’ and didn’t even realize it was New Years already until the fireworks started going off. Scared the living shit out of my dog but didn’t wake my wife or daughter so it’s all good.

I feel like a fucking loser everyday. Welcome to the club op. PM me your address so I can send you your membership card.
If brap sends you something in the mail, open it with gloves. The white crystallized substance making the letter stick together isn’t glue, it’s dried semen.

Anyone who thinks they are losers for not being out drinking and spending dummy money on drinks for NYE is an idiot. As long as you're enjoying what you were doing at the time, that's all that matters.

No, I never liked New Years and only ever celebrated when I was dating someone who cared for their benefit. The date on the calendar has changed, that's it. And I dislike resolutions worse. Wanna make significant changes in your life? Do it because you truly want to. Not because of an arbitrary change in a date of the year.

Everyone vows they will be nicer and better and by January 2nd they'll be trashing their fellow man for things like using wrong pronouns and liking the wrong comedians or standing and smiling while some dude chants in your face.

i haven’t gone out for New Years in like 10 years

Once they started charging to go into pubs for NYE I was no longer interested in going out. I'd only started going to pubs because the clubs were charging more AND they were over packed. New years eve for a long time has been at home with friends and going up onto the roof at midnight to watch the fireworks.

I’m old enough to know I can’t run with the young folks, so I choose to spend time with my family instead of worrying about what everyone else is doing. Once my kids get old enough and don’t want to spend hoildays like this with me anymore I might start feeling bad again.

Until then I’m getting the love I need from people I actually care about. Instead of trying to count how many strangers I’m hanging with.

My first time getting wasted was when I was 15. My first time getting stoned I think I was 16. My friends and I were going to college campus parties by 17 because we knew some older guys from work and there were always these crazy huge block parties on the OSU campus.

By the time I was about 23, I was fucking done partying. I'm not sure if I've gotten drunk on New Years in the past decade.

Seems like projection by one of our resident frustrated virgins that needs to talk about sex or sex related things in almost every post they make.

And you feel the need to bring that up now why? I touched a nerve.

it’s alright, I lost my virginity late too. You’ll get there when it’s time

I mostly celebrated new year and other holidays at home sitting on my computer playing games, watching yt videos or mastrubating. I just don't like people very much.
It's not a loser thing to do OP. It's perfectly fine.

But I did celebrate this new year with my buddy barbecuing on top of his garage. It was solid, 6/10. If there were ladies present I'd give it 10/10.

NYE is a load of bollocks. I'd rather be at home playing a game than in some bar or club exchanging false niceties with strangers just because it's perceived as 'the thing to do.' Being on your own on NYE doesn't make anyone a loser.

I got fuckin wasted last night playing quarters

I find no one plays quarters anmore but its sweet

then we all yelled happy new year and i left and bought a breakfast sandwich. i felt bad that there were people working at the place when i went to get it
 
I used vacation time to take the night off with the sole intention of kissing my old lady at midnight and we were both asleep before the ball dropped.

I’m at home, doing my best to ignore everyone I know, patiently waiting for the holidays to end so I can get back to my normal routine.

I said this is another thread and many disagreed. I really dislike this time of the year as it feels like social pressure ramps up to the nth.

Quite frankly, I can see why a lot of people associate the Christmas and New Year period with depression. While I had a good Christmas day with family, many of my friends went home for the holidays and the whole thing has left me feeling bored and a bit isolated. If I were a smarter man I'd have booked a trip away somewhere nice.

The rest of the year is fine.
