By “party”, I mean a physical social gathering of people for the purposes of having fun. It may be used in a sentence as “I am throwing a party!” or “Let’s party!”.
Basically what I am trying to say is the default “party”.

I’ve never been to any, and I have no idea how people spend their time on parties, so I am curious how you did.

    It sucks.

    The hoods and cloaks are claustrophobic and hot. They don’t serve any food. There’s a lot of chanting and singing in Latin.

    Everyone has to do this choreographed routine involving raising their arms at the right time and marching to different places and standing still.

    You aren’t allowed to talk or anything, unless you’re running the shindig.

    It’s basically a bunch of that until the goat gets sacrificed, and then at least one of the members will have some sort of seizure or something, and it’s overly dramatic.

    It’s kind of cool when the dude spontaneously catches on fire until they start walking between the acolytes and giving their ‘blessing.’

    Then there’s the week of lost time afterwards where you have no idea what your body is being used for, or even which entity is using it. Almost got fired one time for that.

    And you’re bound to ruin a few outfits with random blood stains, tears, dirt marks.

    3/10.

    Sometimes we get to eat part of the goat though, but it’s raw. So I guess that kind of makes up for the no food.
