Last night a few of us in the Monstrosity went out to some other off-campus houses to party. It was funny because we determined that the popularity of our parties grants us admission to even the most private parties simply because it is more likely than not that the people throwing this private party have attended at least one bash at the Monstro, and probably met their girlfriend/boyfriend there by hooking up on our balcony. With our newly discovered Golden Party Ticket, we headed over to another creatively named house called the Hotel California. They chose the exact opposite route of the Monstro in terms of throwing their party; they had one keg of nice beer and a well-lit dance floor. The Monstro tends to buy lots of kegs of cheap beer and make the dancefloor as dark as possible...you know, for the sex to happen. This party we attended also had a theme, though it was a fairly traditional "Jocks and Cheerleaders" theme. Nothing special there. What WAS special is when we left that party and headed across the street to another house that was having a private party. Their party theme was babies. They just left it at that too. Their theme was babies, and they walked around with a stamp and stamped "babies" on people. I am now intrigued by this new style of party theme. Just theme your party after anything...the more confusing the better. Throw a party with the theme "Choo-Choo Trains" and see what people come up with. You can really mess with people if they come to the door and you tell them "Why are you dressed like that? This is a choo-choo train party, not a staple gun party. Go change." and then slam the door in their face. You can literally do so much with these alternative themes. If you would like some help in this category, just pick one off this brief list, or just open a dictionary and put your finger down. There's your theme!
Alternative Theme Ideas:
1) Recycled Paper
2) Pagers
3) The Republic of Congo
4) Coniferous Forests
5) Ugly Babies
6) August
7) Ghengis Khan
I could continue this list forever, but I have to start prepping for the Super Bowl. I hope I gave someone out there a good start in planning your next bash.
