I need to invite you to the next shindig. You can bring everything with you.

No it isnt that serious, which is why we are not calling the police on her lol.


It isn't worth getting angry about, but it is something to think about. It is one thing to ask a friend to bring some extra meat but asking all people invited to bring all the staples of the cookout is a bit much.

Ooooooh, bring meat and a chair. SUCH a first-world problem. Only wealthy east coasters would be so fucking uptight as to view this as a dilemma worthy of an internet lynching.


I think we found OP's "friend". Hey- word to the wise, when you invite people over you do not ask them to bring their entire f-ing kitchens with me idiot.


Not the OP's friend; I live nowhere near the East Coast.

If your definition of your "entire f-ing kitchen" consists of meat and a chair, God help you.


It's raw meat for the entire family, x number of chairs, a side and/or dessert, and beverages for everyone in the family. That is a lot of sh*t to haul over.

OP, if I wanted to socialize with any of the guests I might say I had dinner plans (ie, eat at home), but would join them for dessert.


It's your own meat and chairs. Personally I would consider a side and/or dessert optional in spite of the wording on the invite. No mention of beverages in the invite.

Right, their own meat and chairs they have to haul down the block, and it was BYOB, hence the need to bring beverages.

I never saw where it was "BYOB", but nice job of keeping the drama alive by using the word "haul". It must suck to live life as a major priss.

Nope, I have quite a good life; one where using a perfectly appropriate verb is not considered "dramatic." I think YOU might be a drama queen, though.

If by "drama queen" you mean someone who'd show up at a friend's get-together without my panties in a twist about not coming empty-handed, then... I guess.. guilty as charged.

You all are crazy. I don't care what I was asked to bring if I wanted to spend time with the people.


I call BS. No one doesn't "care what they are asked to bring." People just have different levels of tolerance for what specific items are requested, which is fine, but the iinviter here should have understood that what she was asking people to do was on the higher end, and some people probably would not want to do it, and not come. Spending time with friends is great, but if a particular activity that they suggest isn't going to work for me, I just say no thanks. There will be other opportunies to do things that work for both of us in the future.

^^^Panties may not be in a twist but you definitely sound twisted in the way you jump on everyone because they disagree with you. Big deal so you show up with goodies at a party so that makes you the Queen of Sheba?
