Not sure if it was a play date or what but it was very strange.

Oh and only one glass of wine per guest

What is wrong with you? It is a fun activity and you can make your pizza how you see fit. We have both hosted and attended dinner parties where this happened and it's a lot of fun.

People will complain about anything, I swear.

No one is disagreeing that it can be a fun party. It's not letting the guests know beforehand what kind of a party it is that's the problem. I don't get how so many of you (really just one of you) repeatedly can't get that through your heads.

OP. For one thing, know that sock-puppeting will get you banned here. I'm happy to report your posts. For another, you're the only one with the perspective you're putting forward. Multiple people here have called you out for being rigid, ungrateful, dependent on alcohol, cheap, and any number of accurate things that came across clearly in your original post.

It's time that you stop sockpuppering yourself, then. Pretty evident what you're doing. You're the ONLY one saying those things and multiple people are agreeing with OP and the PP you're mislabeling as OP. You sound insane, actually.

This is kind of funny. I can't tell if she's the party host or if she is just bored and trolling. Go ahead and report me. Jeff will clearly see I am not the OP. I do wonder what he would see, though, based on her IP address.

She is totally unhinged. Truly baffling.

I'm older too and I'd much rather stay at home, eat what I want and drink my good wine. I don't enjoy the company of cheap skates. To each her own.

Homemade pizzas like this aren't cheap. And their labor intensive for the host: making the dough (or buying and dividing the dough); making the sauce(s); cutting up all the toppings; investment in the oven and the accessories and the fuel. This sort of meal is akin to raclette or fondue. It's a social meal.

But I don't enjoy being around people so narrow-minded about experiences so I'd be thankful you won't be coming.

This is so weird. No one is saying it's a bad party. (Well, maybe the one person who doesn't seem to like people anyway.) It's about doing something that is labor intensive, like a game, that not everyone wants to do on their Saturday night after a long week. Maybe they do. Maybe they don't. They just need to know what they're getting into and get to make a choice as to how they spend their night out.

Labor intensive? Good Lord.

Sure, the host should have mentioned it, but OP's reacrion is still weird.

It is labor-intensive. And super impractical unless you have 5 ovens going at the same time. It's fine if you are planning on everyone eating at different times and if people know before hand what to expect.

It's less than 5 minutes of work. Labor-intensive, are you mad?

Tell me you've never made proper homemade pizza, without telling me.......

The dough and sauce was already made by the host, toppings cut up, so yes - assembling it is EASY.
But, if they had to make their own dough and make their own sauce and cut up all the toppings, it would be labor intensive. But that’s not the case here.

The dough was pre-made, genius. Roll it out (2 minutes?) and throw some toppings on it (about a minute). I mean, seriously.

Yeah, you have no idea how to make pizza properly.

Considering the pizza shops get the dough shaped in about 90 seconds… you have no idea how to make pizza properly if you think it’s that labor intensive after the dough and sauce are made and toppings chopped up.

I'm sure you're a pro. Just make sure you tell people this is what they're expected to do before they come over, so they can choose to decline to participate in your lunacy.
