Wizzle Dizzle Pizzle Tizzle
So the fam(mom, sisters) are taking a week and a half long trip to Washington DC in 2 days.
I wanna have a party, but my house is kinda small and really cluttered(mom's a pack rat). I've never thrown a party before, ever. I need some suggestions. Translation of title: Washington DC Party Time

gather up all expensive/sentimental/fragile objects in the house, memorize where they all went, and hide the shit out of them. put them in a locked room or something. lock all bedrooms. keep an eye on the drunkest of party goers - they have a tendency to break things.

I'm more partial to smallish gatherings of people I can trust not to fuck my shit up. Wild raging parties are fun once in a while, but if it's at my house I'd try to keep it to a sensible amount of people so as to still have a great time but not have to worry about knocking/kicking out disrespectful assholes.

Carefully plan how much booze and weed you'll need, then double it for good measure.
Like hfb said lock away valuables and fragiles.

So much hooka love lately. Ya'll niggas best save that shit for my birthday on Friday.
Bearsy, be sure to have vodka on hand because for some godforsaken reason people love that stuff, so have lots of it on hand. Also some rail or slightly above whiskey (i.e. Kentucky Gentleman, Seagrams 7, Canadian Club) for people that like real drinks . I'd recommend a shit ton of Yuengling or something similar beer wise. Shit is cheap and doesn't taste like piss. Or just say fuck it and go dirt cheap.

I've never understood the mechanics of people actually showing up to your party.
if people know you throw badass parties, they'll come. but if nobody has ever shown up to what would be a sick party, any future parties won't get off the ground. maybe people just don't want to be around me.

1) get a lot of beer. 3-4 cases? don't expect to get all or any of your money back. you're pitching in for the cause.
2) call a handful of people. tell people that there will be some booze, but to byob anyways 3) text/facebook a bunch of girls, tell them you love them and want to rage with them. 4) get party cups and ping pong balls / cards / dice for casual drinking games before the party gets big. 5) call some more people the day of, and call others to make sure they're still coming. 6) don't drink liquor before people start showing up. you've gotta make it to the end of the night to watch over your house. if it only sounds like a really small group of people are coming from the initial round-up, then you might wanna bail. no party is better than a weak party. |

my advice is never have a full blown party unless you want your house to be trashed. even with a house full of sound people stuff gets spilled and things get smashed

Sweet Baby Rays is by far the best BBQ sauce I've ever had.
I'm probably just gonna have a few people get together. When I get a bigger place I'll do some blowouts. So for about 10 people I should have like 2 cases of beer, a bottle or two and like a half O right?

Depends on how much hard liquor you drink. My friends and I drink way more beer, so it would be more like 3 to 4 cases and then maybe the bottle.
Half sounds about right, make sure not to forget the box of honey dutches. Oh, and Mr. Chi City is some real talk. |

Be careful, first time party-organizers can be taken advantage of pretty easily.
