The Worst Parties Ever

Parties are meant to be enjoyed and forget about the things that have been bugging you and let loose, but these are the WORST! Parties! Ever!!! If you've ever been to a party that has taken the wrong turn, you might relate to these shocking tales.

1. It was a piece of cake for our company to let us go

A long time ago in December, I was working for a company when we got a piece of awful news. We suddenly discovered that our whole division was getting laid off days before it happened.

Most of us knew that it was happening a day before the Year End party, which meant that it would be our last working day before the holidays and then we wouldn't be coming back.

We were all bummed...and then our manager came in with a Christmas cake. He was going to be let go too. And he said, “At least we could have a cake to celebrate the season”? By keeping aside our broken spirits, we agreed to the celebration.

But the most humiliating part was about to happen. He didn't bring any plates, spoons, knives, or even napkins. So we all just had to scoop out a bit of cake with our bare hands, and just eat it. All the while, we could feel the dark clouds of sadness over us. It was quite depressing.

2. “Sell me this Cream”

I had a friend from high school who had invited me and my three other friends over for what he had mentioned as a "party". We thought that it might be a small gaming party with some nerdy board games or a console, as there were only the three of us plus him and his wife.

His wife then outta nowhere started an hour-and-a-half presentation about Arbonne and tried to sell women’s beauty products to a group of males between the ages of 19 and 22. I was astounded.

3. Look at these Ugly Scores

When I was in college, an attractive girl in one of my classes asked me out to a party. Soon, I discovered the twisted truth. It turns out it was a "Bring the ugliest guy" themed party. However, in her short-sightedness, she forgot that I was the curve setter in the class and also her source for notes and class details.

She failed a required class in that year which threw her off a year.

4. Dance 101 - Dance and Its Surprising Advantages  

I had an awkward date that was meant to be formal. She started with a lecture about endangered free-range cows. Then asked me random questions like "What brand of sandals do you prefer?".

Then she got into a religious debate with a kid who was Muslim and claimed that he was "worshiping a false God". Then when I finally got her to come dance with me, she sprained her ankle.

5. Choose the Odd One Out

I used to work for a big company, a very large cable provider which was hated. They were dedicatedly cheap and pinched pennies in every way imaginable. One year they celebrated the anniversary of their founding with a mandatory company picnic.

If we didn't attend, we'd be written up. No time off was granted, so it came out of our PTO. On a dull Friday afternoon, we bundled off to the "big party".

It was scheduled in a park by “The king of awful bosses”, our awful boss. Lo and behold, the park was directly across from his house. And this "park" was a patch of grass next to a huge highway overpass. But it got worse. It started raining, and instead of rescheduling the party, we were all told to attend.

It was held under the overpass, with all the bums in their tent city. Who, by the way, ate better than us because we were each allotted either one burger or a hotdog. They were frozen burgers and dogs from the local supermarket. No drinks permitted.

The highlight of the party was a raffle drawing for which, we'd been told we were getting rewarded with great prizes. This at least wasn't too flimsy, since vendors from big companies would send us extravagant gifts to try and persuade us to buy their stuff.

It turned out that the big prize was an R/C car,  which was gas-powered and pretty expensive. Everything else was little grab-bags full of company-branded tchotchkes or t-shirts or whatever.

Naturally, the boss drew his number as a total coincidence, he promised us the big prize, which he took. There were exactly enough grab bags for everyone who was invited, except one.

Guess who!? Naturally, I was the only person who didn't get one. Mind you, I didn't care to have a company-branded t-shirt, but it was the cheap attitude that went with it that irked me. That, and the boss walking over, pointing and laughing at me whole-heartedly and brushing tears from his eyes, saying, "Sucks to be you”!

I exercised some willpower and without uttering a word tried to leave the party. He yelled after me, "You haven't been dismissed yet, you have to stay until 5”! And then pointed at me and laughed some more.

Yeah, that was the worst party I ever went to.

6. Every Other Nerd Party 

In grade 5. The nerdiest kid in our class sent out invitations to almost everyone in our grade.

His mom had planned a huge pizza party and had strung streamers and decorations everywhere, and we were going to Laser Tag after. I was the first one to show up, so we ate some gummy worms and watched Digimon while we were waiting for everyone else.

Long story short, no one else came. She made us wait a couple of hours before driving us to Burger King and taking us home to play Nintendo.

All in all, it was a pretty awesome party because, you know, Burger King and Digimon and Nintendo. I even got to take home three treat bags. I could’ve taken more but wanted to look polite and not like a candy-addicted diabetic person, you know? 

I later heard from one of my other friends and a group of kids with whom we were hanging out, that most kids had thrown out their invites or hidden them so their parents wouldn't force him to go hang out with the unpopular kid.

The moral of the story: kids are not adorable bundles of innocence. Kids are the worst.

7. Saved from the Representative Duties

About a year ago I went back home to visit my parents and some old friends. It went well except for one night when I went to a birthday party with a friend. This was the setup: My friend and I had been playing pool since noon.

It was creeping up to 7:30 when my mom called and asked if I wouldn't mind going to So and So’s birthday as a representative of the family because she was stuck at work and wanted someone to go.

I asked who it was and how old they were, and my mom informed me that it was Caleb and he was probably turning twenty-one. I asked my friend at the bar and we both agreed that 21st birthday parties are usually pretty fun, so why not?

We walked to the store and split a bottle of mid-shelf Scotch for good ol' Caleb, whoever the heck he was. We decided the easiest way to get a card was to have the cashier print off some blank receipt paper and quickly scribble out, “Happy birthday from [my] family,” and tape the “card” to the bottle. Good to go!

We took a cab to the address my mom had texted me and rolled right into this rager of a party. That’s when we realized where we’d gone wrong. It was a rager...of a fourth birthday party. It wasn't Caleb. Caleb wasn’t even living there anymore. It was Jeff.

We had already plopped our generous offering on the gift table by the front door before we had walked into the party proper. So here are two twenty-something dudes and we have just interrupted duck, duck, goose.

We left in such a panicked hurry we didn't even think about the Scotch we had both dropped $18 on. We just got out as fast as we possibly could, walked as fast as two idiots could for a couple of blocks, and called a cab.

I got home to my mom laughing hysterically about the phone call she got from the family about our family's odd choice of gift for a four-year-old. She apologized to me and decided that she wouldn't choose me as a family representative for any future get-togethers.

8. I’m Cursed, Cursed!!

I went to this Super Bowl party at this church. I don't go to church at all, but I went because this chick that I had been crushing over since the day I got into high school was going to be there.

So I get there, the game is on, there's snacks and video games, overall it was alright the whole time. And then the halftime show is about to start, which is always the most interesting part of the Super Bowl. Well, we didn't get to watch it.

The church shut the projector off, and instead, this dude started preaching Jesus and heavenly things. Granted, I was in a church, so I shouldn't be too surprised, but I was pretty angry. I felt like they were keeping me from the most entertaining part of the Super Bowl.

So whatever, I just go home and try to forget it. I went to school the next day, and everyone kept asking me the same thing: "Hey man! Did you see Janet Jackson's ‘wardrobe malfunction’”?!

9. Is Law and Order that bad? 

So there was I, an ambitious and fun-loving 19-year-old in my second semester of college. I had been the typical good student in the first semester, but quickly, over winter break, I’d discovered the wonders of drinking.

My roommate had a pretty and quite attractive girlfriend who would come by our dorm room regularly and would go out with us to various parties around town. She always seemed to have a good time, but the next day she would talk about how bad she felt, despite appearing to be completely fine. I should’ve known something was up. 

Then one weekend she excitedly arrived at our suite and came bouncing into our room. She was amazingly excited to invite us to a party. Some of her friends were throwing a party at their house and she wanted my roommate and me to go.

I had met a couple of her friends in passing and they seemed to be nice girls and were also quite attractive. The 19-year-old male in me was up for going to this party.

That night, my roommate and I walked over to his girlfriend's dorm room to meet up with her. She is driving and we excitedly head off to this party. Now let me preface the rest with an important fact. I had decided to put on a pre-game for the party. I had a solid buzz going.

We arrived at the house and there were few cars in the driveway. It's only about 8 PM so we are pretty early. The number of people already there had been a good sign of the night to come.

I was lied to. As we enter, I get my first glimpse of an idea that what I was hoping this party, would in turn be the worst pre-game I’d ever play.

I walked into what might have been the largest collective look of distaste that I have ever witnessed. I was the sole attendee who had brought drinks. And that would be the case for the entire night.

That’s when I found out the truth. It was at this point that my roommate's girlfriend took the opportunity to inform me of what I determined to be an important piece of information.

At that moment I learned that she and all of her friends at this party were Mormons. So there I was, stuck at this house with about 25 Mormons and my roommate. That is all that happened.

They didn't play games. They didn't listen to music. They were offended by Law & Order as my choice for something to watch on TV. I had the joy of sobering up while listening to them talk about church. I had asked my roommate to punch me twice and knock me out so that I could just wake up when it was over and we could go home.

10. Our company Doesn’t Have a HR

I had a Christmas party at my workplace, where we were sent a stern letter saying if we didn’t stay an extra hour to make up for the time we spent at the party or didn't use PTO, we would be at risk of being fired. Oh yeah, then the budget was cut to $50 and everyone was told to bring their food. Yay, company morale!

11. Attack In Black

I’d been confused about the address of my friend’s new house, as he had invited me over for a party. I'd never been to or showed up at a place with balloons around the mailbox with an address literally like 2 digits away.

I’d got my friend a cheap katana from the swap meet and brought plenty of all-black, very real-looking airsoft guns, it was supposed to be an airsoft party.

As I walked in nobody was around but I heard people laughing and stuff out back so I set the katana with a little Hello Kitty bow around it on the entranceway table with a loud metallic clack, whipped out my 2 all-metal airsoft, pulled my bandana over my face and my aviators down and walked into the backyard.

As I went ahead I saw about a dozen of concerned and confused parents looking back at me with three or four toddlers sitting in a sandbox looking back at me with a horrified look. "Oh…umm…oops, the wrong party. So sorry everyone. Have an excellent birthday". And then I got the hell outta there.

12. Blind Teen Love 

At my 18th birthday party. My crazy ex had just about disassociated me from any of my remaining friends I had. They were so sick and tired of her, and me sticking up for her as I was blindly in love, they wanted me no more in the group. Although I was in the worst phase of friendship with my friends, My ex had some other plans.

She invited them all to my 18th birthday party at her place. She sorted out a load of food, cakes, etc., and music. But, none of my now ex-friends were going to make any effort to go around to a psycho’s house for a party and it made sense.

So as you can imagine my 18th birthday party was her telling me "See, you call them friends? They don't even bother turning up to your 18th birthday party just because they don't like me”!

She later admitted and confirmed my suspicion that she fabricated the whole thing on purpose, to make me realize that I had no one in my life other than her, which would make me unable to leave her.

13. Talk, Talk and Talk

I asked this girl out for prom, whom I'd never spoken to but had a huge crush on her. After I had asked her out and walked ten feet away my friends gave me a loud cheer complete with multiple high fives and huzzahs. It was the best feeling in the world—only to be followed by the worst party ever. 

The next few weeks as the prom came closer were terrible. I tried to talk to her between classes but it just couldn’t happen. The prom was even worse. My parents made me spend way too much on photos.

I have a yearbook full of them, at least I look fantastic. She said she didn't want to dance which I was fine with because I can't anyway but she also apparently didn't want to talk so we spent the entire evening outside, cold and in silence watching other people dance.

After that, we went to an after-party that neither of us were sure we were invited to. She didn't want to drink so we sat and caught stray ping-pong balls while struggling to make idle chit-chat. Then her ex-boyfriend showed up and she decided she needed to go. She drove me since I didn't have my license.

The whole ordeal was very painful, but it helped me realize I need to get to know people before deciding to like them instead of just staring at them all semester. My prom date turned out to have no personality and the sense of humor of a six-year-old. I'm AT LEAST on the level of a seven-year-old.

14. Santa by Mistake 

My buddy said he was throwing a Christmas Eve party and that I should be bringing two birds because everything else was covered by people.

So I paid my $20 for some fine stuffed chickens and got some of the most delicious as well as expensive hot sauce in the country too, because why not go out for your closest friends around the holidays right?

I showed up early, and from the driveway, I noticed the lights were off. I thought that I must be the first or even better that my dear friends had lit candles and we're caroling or playing Yule-time games.

When I let myself into the living room, I was shocked. The house was completely bare.

From somewhere in the dark came my friend dragging himself down the stairs dressed in nothing but his boxer shorts, wiping the spittle from his chin, his cheek still lined with bed marks and his hairy stomach grumbling like a rabid mongoose.

He mumbled something to me about the lights being shut off before he began tucking into my delicious poultry, ripping great strips of meat from the birds and stuffing them into his mouth.

Though I didn't want to admit it, my mind was beginning to realize that the whole thing had been planned by this obese sloth to get a free meal.

He remembered his manners long enough to offer me a glass of water and then he was back at it, half-dressed, hunched over the living room table gorging himself on my chicken and gargling down the special sauce.

He was lucky he was late on his electricity bill because he didn't get to see me sitting in the dark, with the glass of water in hand, shivering with rage.

15. Alone with Everybody 

At my 21st birthday party, my parents went away for a month. I was crazy for this girl who kept telling me "It's not the right time for me to be in a relationship now".

Rather than hear the "no" that she implied, I'd just wait another month or two and ask her out again. My friends and I partied all summer and my parents left about a week before my birthday. My house was now party central.

All week long I had people trashing the place, crashing over, waking up and we'd all pitch in and get the house back in shape. It was working out well. Additionally, my crazy affection slept in my bed five nights in a row...just slept mind you.

Saturday was my birthday and we were set up right. My brother got us a keg, and my band was set to play in the basement. People showed up and things were rocking. While the band is playing I notice no one's hitting the keg. Some dude I didn't know showed up. Whatever, the more the merrier.

After my band was done, and I felt like Mr Cool Guy Guitarist, I went to find this girl I’d been crazy for. We've been spending time together after all, and I just rocked the house. She was in the backyard hooking up with a guy I didn’t know.

I got depressed. At about 9, a bunch of my friends, the girl included, left. They headed over to our bassist’s house. I kept my downward spiral of depression going. They got back around 2 AM. I had spent the last few hours staring at the ceiling from my bed. I go out to the back porch to smoke before the confrontation.

I then walk back to my room. There's the girl and four of my other friends passed out in my bed. Every bed in the house was taken. Every couch was taken. Every comfy chair was taken. I was beside myself with self-pity. I slept on my parents’ kitchen floor feeling very alone in a house full of friends.

16. No DNA test Required 

My former roommate had a Memorial Day barbecue party and had invited a metric ton of people, including his cousin and her two-year-old. Along with his grandmother and aunt. I adored Grammy and Auntie, such magnificently eccentric people but had never met the cousin.

Well, I'd just come off a horrific 10-day stretch of 10-12 hour shifts waitressing, dealing with rude people and even ruder kids, and was very much needy to get tanked and eat barbecue.

What happens next? Cousin shoves her kid at me and books out to the backyard, roommate follows, grandmother and aunt follow, and somehow they've all seemed to assume I have a burning desire to watch this kid. Which I certainly did NOT!

So I went to my cousin and explained I would not be a babysitter, now or ever, and said to watch her kid. Her reply was infuriating. She told me, in front of everyone, "But it's a party! I want to have fun”!

I could not believe this guy was telling me this in my own house, seriously. I snarled something along the lines of "So do I, watch your kid”! and walked off.

Half an hour later, I went to use my bathroom and shrieked the house down because there was little cousin Junior, taking a messy #2 on my bathroom floor, right next to the toilet. People came running from all directions and my cousin had the nerve to yell at me for not watching her kid that I told her I wasn't going to watch.

I yelled back that she'd better clean that mess up, and she snatched up her kid and bounced.

17. I’d rather attend a wild Las Vegas wedding

After attending the worst wedding, here are some of the highlights: Flowers were falling during the wedding, and they had to break out duct tape during the ceremony to put them back up.

The bride showed up 45 minutes late to her ceremony. There’s no carpet down the aisle, so they roll out a giant sheet of cloth, and more duct tape to keep it down. This is after all the guests were seated.

Then, there was a limited amount of food during the cocktail hour, and once it was done, they didn’t refill. So bye-bye shrimp salad. There was no meat option for dinner.

The priest said, during the ceremony, something along the lines of “It doesn’t matter if it's your 1st, 2nd, or 3rd try at it”. It was her 2nd wedding.

The DJ/band was terrible. They didn’t play one good song. And the worst part? They told the father of the bride they didn’t have the song he wanted to dance with his daughter to. The whole thing was just really poor planning.

18. For once it felt like “Sweet Home Alabama”

I attended a party with my friend from the restaurant I was working with. It was another employee’s house and he invited several others from work. It sounded alright until I found out it was a place known to be a little…backwoods.

We barely find our way there and it is about ten at night. No one else is there yet except for the guy hosting it. He told us people were on their way and showed us around the house. He lets us know that his kids (5 and 3) are asleep in the backrooms and that his wife is at a girl’s night with her friends.

A few people finally showed up from work, including one of our bosses, who showed up with one of the cooks they were sleeping together.  Which made things a little awkward, but it was nothing compared to what was about to happen next.

The guy's sister shows up and starts yelling at him for throwing a party while he has his kids there. It’s awkward because he is acting like he was caught red-handed and is super quiet the whole time he was getting yelled at.

She is yelling at everyone to leave while my friend and I slip into the basement with a few others. I feel like we were down there for YEARS with the awkward couple but I am sure it wasn’t very long in hindsight.

Eventually, we hear no more yelling coming from upstairs so we go check on things. That’s when we made an utterly disturbing discovery.

We go to the living room and find the host making out! with his sister on the couch! My mind is screaming at me at this point but the awkwardness keeps me quiet and we just stand there…watching things escalate until clothes start coming off.

That’s when I say “Oh heck no” and my friend and I start tripping over ourselves to make a break for the door. We stumble in my car and I get to the end of the driveway and realize I’m in no condition to drive. The host comes out and I refuse to roll down my window, to face the situation. That’s when I finally learned the truth. 

Eventually, I rolled down the window and he told me that was his wife, and I woke up the kids. We went back inside and played Wii bowling.

19. The Dark Night 

In high school. The awkward kid threw a party and invited everyone from our class, every   Single Person was invited. The party was at his home, which by no means was big enough to fit our entire class, but the party went ahead. About 15 people showed up.

The guy who was having the party was busy losing it because he invited girls, we were juniors at that time, and he lived a sheltered life, while everyone else was playing some game with dice to break the ice. Eventually, we had a Wii boxing tournament. I won and got a $3 gift card to Sonic.

As the night was getting dark, I accidentally pushed a friend into his stairwell and broke one of the supporting beam things. Then when everyone was leaving, we each got to take an ornament from the Christmas tree at his place.

20. Playing God without Permission

In my freshman year, I joined the Speech team at my school. There was a party after almost every meeting, but I was kind of introverted back then, and I didn't feel like I knew the rest of the team well enough to go to any of the parties, most of which were upperclassmen.

One weekend, I finally got the nerve to go to one of the parties. My mom drops me off late, which she considers to be fashionable. I knock on the door. The host, a senior, is visibly relieved to see me, and that is my first indication that I've made a terrible mistake.

There is a huge spread of food set out in the host's living room. Enough for at least thirty people. There are 15 on the speech team, and the only guests right now were me and another girl, also a senior, who is just not very fun to be around and who emits the vibe of Karen.

The host is urging me to eat some of the food, so I have a piece of frozen pizza, which had been cooked in a microwave, so it was limp, soggy, and by now, stone cold.

The host then gets out some Eurogame with movable stackable tiles and plastic army units. It's confusing, it's difficult, and the girl is getting increasingly hostile toward everyone because she's frustrated.

Eventually, one of the coaches arrives, and when he walks into the party room, he physically recoils. He sat down and joined our game out of obligation, but he said that he had to leave 15 minutes later. I take a cue from him, go into the bathroom, call my mom, and leave a few minutes later.

From what the host told me later, the other girl didn't leave for hours.

21. Couldn’t they see the Explicit Content label

Recently I’d attended a wedding where the groom was karaoke-ing "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails, uncensored. The bride walked up to him as he was singing and we thought she was going to stop it. Instead, she joined in. The older wedding guests were not impressed.

22. The True lies

A long time ago, I noticed a correlation between how I spend my New Year's Eve and how the entire new year ahead goes. Crazy wild party? Crazy wild year. Didn't bother to celebrate? Boring year.

Well for the millennium, I couldn't have been more stoked to have been invited to a rich friend's apartment, who spared no change. He lived in a two-floor penthouse on a very rich street in Boston that overlooked Charles. The elevator opened up directly into the apartment.

Every guest got a starter bottle of Dom Pérignon upon entry, with unlimited booze flowing the entire evening. Everyone, myself included, was dressed to the 9s. I had just graduated college, and it was a very good sign of the kind of life I was to begin leading after all that hard work. I had no idea what I was in store for. 

Five minutes after we got there, my ex-girlfriend excitedly bounded up to the host, who promptly told her something along the lines of "Please don't talk to me for the rest of the evening, I am very upset with you”.

She did not take it well. I spent the majority of the party consoling her in the coat room, which involved drinking. She refused to leave. She wanted to keep making a scene until she got an apology, and the longer she waited, the worse the drama got.

The host's boyfriend took a shift consoling her while I sought out the host, and when I confronted him and defended her, he explained that she had done something that had violated his trust. That’s when I found out the dark truth. 

As a result, he had uninvited her, but he didn’t mind that I showed up. And that he would appreciate it if I would either stay upstairs and have a good time, go back downstairs and do more consoling, or just leave. As hot as I was, as quick as I was to defend my lady, it seemed like a reasonable request, so I stayed upstairs a little more.

I knew I was being the worst, but I had been down there for like two hours. Enough was enough. I started being social, which was always a little hard for me to do back then, and then suddenly some of my anxieties started melting away. I was chatting, laughing, having a great time, and then we all watched the ball drop on TV.

Shortly after midnight, I resumed my responsibility, and I took my girlfriend home. We decided to take the subway, the transit authority had buses running all evening. When we got to the station, we just missed the connecting bus that would have brought us the rest of the way home.

It was the last straw for her. She started screaming about how everyone betrays you. She started kicking one of those wooden boxes where they keep the sand for when the roads get icy.

A bus driver saw this, drove up, and said he felt bad and let us board his bus and took us back to our place, he did it just for us. He turned the whole empty bus around after we got to our apartment.

It was so affirming to me, that someone could be so kind, but it didn't matter to the girl. I put her to bed when we got home and stayed up and went to bed after watching the sun rise through the buildings and trees from my back porch.

I should have realized then and there that she wasn't the right person for me. But I let it slide. We had so much in the bank. So many good memories. I wasn't going to leave her over a stupid party. Later, I discovered what had happened between her and the host. 

She had promised the host that she would write some sort of letter to a grad school he was applying to, and she said she wrote it, but she never did. I had caught her in a bunch of similar lies in the past, and I believed his story.

I felt bad that I had defended her blindly at first during the poor guy's party, that he had spent so much time and money on. I also later found out that she knew that she had been uninvited, but she showed up anyway.

The rest of the year was, unsurprisingly, full of drama, but we eventually broke up, but not before moving into another apartment together, not before I caught her cheating on me and let it slide again and after we broke up every day I had to overhear her rants "wasting years of her life," using her power of dramatic storytelling and half-truth spin to make me look like a horrible person to the point where I lost half of my friends. She whipped everyone up into a frenzy, she had strangers online affirming her strength daily. I've seen her do it to other people. I should have seen that coming.

23. Come and get me IRS

Just out of high school, a girl I knew was throwing a big birthday party at her house and her parents "totally won’t be there". Not only were her parents there they also stood on the staircase and watched like hawks the entire time. Eventually, it became a room of staring 19-year-olds vs bird-like parents from above—but that wasn’t the most deranged part.

The girl went upstairs to try and talk to them and when she came down she told us that her parents said we all had to pay $5 because "parties aren't free". I promptly left.

24. The Party Pooper

While I was in the 7th grade, I went to a party where everybody started randomly kissing, and I was the only guy not getting any of it. I was the odd one out, so I went upstairs and told the host’s mother about the situation downstairs. She stayed in the basement with us for the rest of the night, with no more kissing.

25. The Red Face Redemption 

I was at a party with my cousin. She starts making out with a guy, who then follows her around like a puppy, randomly telling her how great she is and what an awesome DJ he is. She gets tired of him and says, "Well go and get on the decks then!” So he goes to the kitchen to get up on the decks.

Minutes later he runs past us holding his face in pure embarrassment, Portraying that he doesn’t want to see my cousin again. About 20 minutes later we heard banging on the door, "OFFICERS, OPEN THE DOOR". For your information, this is the UK, and the authorities don’t generally raid parties or bang on the door like that.

In response to that, every one out there starts laughing and shouting go away and other things like that. They kick the door open and it is a bunch of officers. They started shining lights in everyone's eyes and asked random questions; "What have you taken? Do you know where so-and-so is? Where's the blade”?

What?! At this point we looked around the room and seemed to be taking it all in for the first time, there was blood everywhere, all over the floor, all over my friend's handbag, and all over the front door. Then one of the officers comes past with a bread knife in an evidence bag. That’s when we realized what had happened. 

It would seem that my cousin’s romantic friend was not embarrassed when he left but was holding his face together. It turns out that the DJ decided that he was not going to let him have a go on the decks.

That was probably a good point to leave.

26. In The End, it Doesn’t Even Matter

At my 16th birthday party. As a girl, It’s supposed to be a big thing, so I had it all planned out! I had a pool party planned, and my dad's band was going to play with me singing a Linkin Park song. It was super popular back then, ok!

I invited everyone I knew, yet only a few people showed up. My best friend, two girls who left about a half hour after they showed up, and a boy whose mom made him attend because she was friends with my mom.

Talk about an epic fail. Still, my best friend and I tried to make the best of it but it never helped my wounded pride.

Funny though, my dad told me the other day that a girl at his work knew me in high school, because of the flier I'd given her for that party. I'm 26 now, and this happened just the other day. Funny that she kept it all these years but never showed. Life is weird.

27. Always Pray before Playing Charades

I was about 16 When I had a crush on the neighbor girl. One day we were talking after we’d gotten off the bus and she said: "I am having a little party tonight, you should come over, it'll just be a few of us girls". I said yeah! I arrived at the party around 8 pm and noticed there were only three girls.

While hanging out I realized there were no drinks and there were pictures of Jesus and crosses all over the wall. Well, being born completely atheist, I knew nothing about Christianity and honestly never cared to study about it. So we got downstairs and she suggested we play charades.

I wanted to leave at this point but I didn’t want to be rude, so we played. What happened next still makes me shiver with embarrassment. I received my card and it said "missionary". Now, in my 16-year-old atheist young mind, I began to think of something else.  Needless to say, I acted out the missionary position for what felt like forever and got weird stares.

Finally, one girl asked what I got and I told her and she told me what an actual missionary is. I grabbed my jacket and left. I even started catching a different bus at a different stop after this.

28. Crushed It 

In high school, I was invited to a party that included a girl, whom I had a crush on. I was a heavy kid and suffered from a lack of self-confidence, so I never made a move. When she snuck up on me and jumped on my back, she later admitted that she had a crush on me. I laughed and attempted to lean back and set her down.

She didn't put her feet down.

When she kept hanging from my neck with my balance out of control, I kept going and ended up falling completely on her.

29. Rewards of Trespassing

I was 17 years old and a senior in high school when my friends and I knew of this abandoned house in a very prestigious neighborhood. The house was probably worth above $2 million. We decided to check the house out and see if it was legitimate.

So we walked up to the place, it wasn’t visible as it was on a hill. As we got closer to our surprise, the back door was unlocked and we just walked right in. The place was huge! It had giant empty rooms with no furniture or anything inside the house.

So later that week, I decided to tell one of my more popular friends about the house, and they recommended having a party over there. So about a week later on Friday, I logged into Facebook and almost every status was something along the lines of "Huge Mansion Party! Text me for details”!

I assumed that he just went ahead and decided to throw a party there, he was living right down the road from it. As I walked to the party to find at least 200 people there raging out. Now this is where it all gets interesting.

I looked over behind my shoulder and saw a kid sink a Beirut shot from probably 30 feet, and he went wild out of excitement. He started smashing things, he was punching and kicking walls and even put his head through a wall. All of a sudden, every  person there started to destroy the house.

Windows were broken, the staircase was damaged, the chandeliers were ripped down, walls were destroyed, the entire kitchen was pulverized, and there was garbage everywhere.

To say the least, the house had A LOT of damage. Amid the destruction, we heard sirens. Everybody just bolted out of the house and the party was over, I stayed a little bit longer to realize that no one ever actually came.

The next day I drove by the place and there were 5 or 6 squad cars outside of it inspecting everything. I know that so far this party sounded great, but I'm about to explain why it was the worst party.

About a month after the party, I'm sitting at home and there's a knock on my door. I opened the door to find a couple of officers standing there and they said to me "We have a warrant for your arrest, you have the right to remain silent... blah blah blah".

So they took me to the station and explained that they had pictures of me at this party and what I was being charged with. I ended up pleading guilty to the charges of trespassing and mischief.

The consequences include more than $3,000 worth of fines, a 14-week class on underage drinking, 60 hours of community service, and 6-month probation, all just because I attended this party.

Turns out there were 84 other kids who got the same punishment as me, and yeah, a total of $200,000+ damage to the house. Yeah, the party was fun, but not worth the consequences.

30. Free Buffet

It was my birthday party that my girlfriend was throwing for me. I knew she was doing it so I asked her, "If you are going to do a party can I give you a list of my friends to invite”? She acted out like she wasn't planning anything.

Long story short. The "surprise" party was all of her friends. The worst part is they were eating all of my food that my girl had bought using a gift certificate of mine to a local restaurant, I was saving that gift certificate!

31. The Consequences of Courage

I was at my friend's birthday party, and when it all wound down there was a group of four guys who refused to leave when they were asked to. One of the guys said, "Who wants us to leave”? to our group of friends, and I saw that no one cared to stand up to them, so I put up my hand.

I was surrounded by him and his four friends pretty fast, and me and my friends were being pushed towards each other by a huge group of people.

I remember being confident in the fact that I was surrounded by my friends who would back me up, and none of these guys were particularly big, so I wasn't going to back down—but there was something that I forgot about. 

When punches were being thrown, I realized the huge group of my friends around us consisted solely of females, who in no time cleared the area, allowing me to take a decent beating from four guys. Some of my male friends heard the fight and stepped in to save me. I got a fractured nose and orbital bone.

32. I think it Was My Cat’s Doing

I went to a Halloween party a few years ago, at my friend's apartment with a couple of friends. Everyone was already going at it, being obnoxious deep into their characters. So we tried to figure out a way to get out before people would make a scene over us for leaving within five minutes after we showed up.

So, I acted like I got a phone call, threw over my best "oh no" shocked face, and said "Oh lord, we gotta go, my dog exploded", and just left. No one said anything.

So, now whenever we're in an awkward situation we want to get out of it, and someone's dog explodes.

33. The Silent Gaze

My friends were always amazed when I talked about this one time, I went to a mute party. There were about 10-15 people at this girl's house, and nobody was allowed to speak or even write(how else could one communicate clearly in this situation). We could communicate only with gestures.

I only knew one girl there, and it was awkward with almost everyone out there. I didn't know what to do, so it just ended up in a very long staring contest. The weirdest or the best part was when I decided to leave, but couldn't say it to anyone, and I just took my coat and went out, without uttering a word.

And yet, like every time I've been to a party, I had imagined I would meet a girl there.

34. Hey Netflix here’s your New Documentary 

Years back when I was at a pool party, and by nightfall everyone was pretty drunk. One of the guests thought it would be funny to fill a Jagermeister bottle with ipecac. And offer shots to the people in the pool.

12 or so people did the shots and didn't mind that it tasted funny. A few minutes later it was a total puke fest, in the pool. Kinda like that scene from Family Guy, but in water so everyone was screaming and scrambling to get out as the puke swimmed around with them.

35. A Divine Calling  

My worst party experience was when I was invited to my classmate's 18th birthday party in high school. I didn't hang out with my classmates regularly but figured that it was kind of a big deal turning 18 and that it would strike awkward to say no, so I said I'd join.

I knew that this girl and several others in my class were religious but not in a particularly annoying way, but in Sweden it's kind of weird to go to church every week. As I arrived at the place where her party was supposed to be, warning bells went off. 

It was a church, and it was starting to feel weird by now, but I stayed and eventually found there were only two people from my class that I usually talked to, and these two were Muslim girls. I can't say that anything exceptional happened but I felt as if I was in a cult.

Everyone just seemed like they were over-the-top nice and friendly, in a creepy way. After an okay amount of time, I called my dad who came to pick me up. I said goodbye to the birthday girl and excused myself and lied and said I needed to get up early in the morning. But instead, I went to another party.

Fast forward to Monday in school. My two Muslim friends told me what had happened after I left and it was horrifying. They started playing soothing music and everyone was supposed to lie down on the floor and think about god. They found it a bit odd but decided to just play along.

This worked out well until one of the girl's phone went off. The birthday girl's father then barges into the room, takes the girl's phone, and proceeds to lock it in a drawer. He gave her an angry look and said it was necessary, so she wouldn't ruin the moment for everyone else.

36. Friendship at First Sight

At my friend's 11th birthday party. She decided to plan it at a restaurant or an arcade and invited people accordingly. I was the only one who showed up. Her mom had rented a section of the place out and had awesome gift bags set up for everyone that had RSVP-ed saying they'd be there. She and I still had a great time. To this day we're still best friends.

37. The Beauty Behind the Beast

I used to live with my girlfriend and she threw a big party for her co-workers that year. She was a cashier at a well-known supermarket chain, and she must have invited over thirty people.

Some necessary backstory, She had a Siberian Husky that was partially housebroken. By that I mean she had him trained to do his business in one part of the house. I couldn't take him out on walks because I was in a wheelchair, or I'd have taken him out, and my girlfriend was working long hours, so she wasn't able to take him out every time he needed to go.

So she designated a 3 x 6-foot area behind the couch as his toilet, and she put flattened cardboard boxes down for him to go on. It wasn't great, but it was the best she could think of.

So, on the day of the party, I cleaned the house well, and since we couldn't have a big piece of cardboard behind the couch, we just pulled it out and left the floor bare.

My girlfriend decided to make some blender drinks. Well, she overdid it, and I was pretty much left to host the party myself. Even though I barely knew any of the people, my girlfriend went to bed so that she could vomit loads onto the floor.

Other than that, every one else seemed to be having a good time, and the party seemed to be going pretty well, even though there was hardly any seating. I didn't mind that since with my wheelchair, I always have a set, but for everybody else, it was standing room only, other than three people on the couch, and two people on our kitchen chairs.

Since the dog lived in the house, he was there too, and sure enough, he decided he had to take a dump. Do you see where this is going?  There wasn't anyone behind the couch, so the dog went back there and got himself hunched over, and dropped a big dog log on the bare floor.

Nobody else saw him do this except me, and by the time I noticed what he was doing it was too late to stop him, and so all I could do was laugh, as I watched the party unravel.

The smell was pretty remarkable, but there wasn't much in the way of air current, so the aroma just sort of hung there in an invisible cloud of rank. I could tell though, when the folks on the couch smelled it because in unison they all screwed up their faces. One of them turned around and looked behind the couch, the dog was done and gone by then. And he said "Oh no" and all three of the folks on the couch got away from it.

As soon as three people were off the couch, three more people had been standing around with nowhere to sit for an hour. Saw their opportunity and they jumped over and sat down before anyone else could grab a seat. They lasted for only 45 seconds to a minute before they realized why the couch had been vacated. As soon as they got up, three more people grabbed a spot on the couch.

The cycle went on for about three or four turns before the smell had drifted far enough to empty the room, and thus the house, and that was it. The party was over, and everyone drove home in the rain without saying goodbye or even leaving a note for my passed-out girlfriend.

She never threw another party as long as I knew her.

38. The Unattended 

When I graduated from high school three years ago, I wasn't invited to a single party afterward. Now the optimist in you might be thinking "Oh, people must not have had any parties, every one gets invited to graduation events" Well my friend, my friends, the sad truth is that there was one. It was held at a local country club. There were over 200 people in attendance, for a graduation event of my class of 192.

How do I know this you might ask? I was present when everyone was invited. I was watching the computer when the Facebook Event creator, who was our class president, sent out the Facebook invites, and I watched her uncheck my name and one or two other kids' names before sending it.

I was also present when the paper invites were given out, the school permitted to hand them out in the homeroom. I was the only one that wasn't given one in my homeroom.

On top of that, my school doesn't even have official graduation events outside of the usual honors day, commencement, and such.

39. Party Wars

On my "Sweet 16", my mom and I had planned out this whole theme of a nightclub and had a party planner come over and decorate our warehouse with white curtains to white everything out, a disco ball, a DJ with lights, and a lounge area that had tables with glowing centerpieces.

I'd been having some family troubles so it was an amazing thing for my mom to do for me, and a lot of money. I passed out the invites at school to all of my friends and didn't invite the jerk who had made a point of trying to make my life miserable. I had over 100 people coming.

On the day of the party, I got a flood of texts telling me that people "couldn’t make it”. I knew something was up, but I didn’t know how bad it was. The jerk had planned a party of his own and invited everyone who was coming to my party. I ended up with about 30 people there, out of which 20 of them didn't go to my school. Almost everyone I went to school with didn't show up.

My mom even called that kid and told him he could come if he wanted to but to please not do this to me on my sixteenth birthday. I will never get over the humiliation from everyone at school the following Monday. I transferred schools after that. I will never get over that feeling.

40. An Hour’s Drive Away

My friend had his birthday party yesterday. The plan, for weeks, had been to go to a huge shopping mall for dinner, drinks, and fun. About 20 people had been invited.

Well, I show up at the appointed time, and no one is there, not even the host! I call him to ask what's going on. He tells me that he changed his mind at the last minute, and now everyone is going to just meet at his place.

On the other side of the city, an hour's drive. So I asked him if he needed me to help him call people to tell them about the change, and he said, "Nah, every one is already here”.

So I said to myself, “Guess I’ll just go home then”.

41. Talking Clock

It was my 11th birthday party, which my twin brother and I had planned. We had no idea how parties worked and ended up brainstorming a series of activities and games at specific times. I kind of ruined the fun when I would constantly watch the clock and then freak out saying, "OMG GUYS!, IT'S 6:31! THE GAME IS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE!” Gosh, I felt so lame.

42. Honest Mistake 

I used to work at a furniture store, wherein our manager’s wife had decided to throw a surprise birthday party and invited all employees over to their home. When we got there we were 15 of them, and we realized that the whole house was furnished with stolen furniture from the company.

It was very uncomfortable as we all waited for the husband to arrive. When he came in, the surprise changed into shock right away. Everyone left 15 minutes later. The manager was fired the next day by the owner. He was then given the choice of returning all furniture or being charged with theft.

43. Was It Snoop Dogg’s Kid?

Both me and my girlfriend used to work at a movie theater, and another girl we worked with invited some people over to her house. First off, let me just say that this place is in the middle of nowhere. So here we are, driving out to someplace where modern medicine hasn't made a foothold yet. We get there and the girl isn't even there.

She gets there an hour later and at this point, it's still just the three of us. Some more people finally show up, including her 40-year-old sister, her 8-month-old baby, and her trashy husband. Anyway, the girlfriend and I decided not to drink because at this point we want to leave as soon as possible without being rude.

This 40-year-old sister has no intention of leaving anytime soon apparently because she precedes to knock out more shots than there are minutes in the day. Fast forward 30 minutes and she starts screaming at us because she has forgotten that we were even at her house. Which wasn't her house.

It turns out that babies don't enjoy yelling at 2 in the morning, so her baby in the living room started screaming and crying. Her kid must have the vocal cords of a full-grown adult male lion. We thought we needed to get outta here at this point.

Before we make it out, the husband over here pulls out a baggie of weed and a one-hitter. "Wanna hit this?” he smugly asks. We decline because we are honestly thinking about breaking through the kitchen window to get to our car.

Everyone, except us, passes it around. Out of nowhere, a 9-year-old child enters from the back of the house. I’ll never forget what happened next. He confidently picks up this one-hitter and finishes it out, packs another, and finishes that one too. I honestly had no idea what to do or say at this point. The girlfriend and I promptly leave and go home.

It honestly felt like I was about to be on Cops. It was the perfect people, setting, and time for an episode.

44. The Best Worst Party ever

When I was in high school, maybe my sophomore year. This kid began passing out invitations to a party he was throwing. He was in a few of my classes, and everyone knew him, but he was one of those weird Reserve Corps kids who lived, breathed, and ate ROTC. High and tight and all. Anyways, like I said, he passed out invites like a week before.

As the night of the party came closer, he told me, "Dude, there are so many people coming, I might have to un-invite people”. I was pumped about this huge party. With a curious excitement, I showed up with one of my buddies, to the kid, his parents, and a table of party food. No one else came for the three hours I stayed there just to make the kid happy.

While I was here, his awkward step dad showed us his saber collection, proved to us that he could do handstands, and watched The Last Samurai. The next week at school, I told everyone how fun the party was, and made the kid feel like a champ.

45. We Felt Higher than the Roof

I went to a party in college that a lady friend of mine had invited me to. As soon as I got there she was headed out the door because she had to leave because of some unexpected reason.

She handed me a fresh drink in a red cup and apologized for leaving urgently, but told me to enjoy the party without her. It was a pretty fun party as far as I remember, but I only drank that one drink that she gave me before I headed off to another party with my roommate.

That's as much as I could remember. When I woke up, I couldn’t believe my eyes. In 40-degree weather, I was in only a shirt and shorts, cuddling with a minivan in a random parking lot.

Confused and still a little messed up, I dusted myself off and walked three miles home. On the way back I stopped at a cafe and got a free breakfast burrito because they took pity on me, so that was nice.

As it turns out, my lady friend got the free drink from some rando at the party and didn't get the chance to drink it. Lucky me. That night remains one of my most entertaining college stories and the biggest mystery of my college career. See, the story doesn’t end there. It turns out the roommate I left with also got roofied that night.

From what we gathered, we left the party with the intention of walking home and going to a neighbor's party when it hit both of us. Everything is a huge blur up until the next morning. I woke up in the parking lot with the van, his destination and circumstances were even better.

He woke up in a forest nestled into a nice den he made for himself out of sticks and tree branches. He has a picture of it somewhere,  it seriously looked like an animal's residence.

We only know what it looked like because we collectively spent the entire next day trying to retrace our steps from the party to find where we ended up, neither of us remembered where the parking lot or the forest was. We had to find where he woke up because he left his hat and phone there.

Through the tiny memories we had from the night, we traced our steps back and found where we ended up. I remembered a colorful wheel from the night, and he remembered walking through construction.

That was all we had to go on. We found the construction and a nearby forest, and as we walked down a path there was a large colorful wheel in someone’s backyard that was some sort of children's plaything.

When we got to the den he made himself, there was also a 2 liter of Sprite and a bottle lying by his things. We got his phone and stuff back and were going through his call log and found that he called a friend of ours at some point in the blackout.

We called her the next day and she said that we were being ridiculous when we called her and some girl kept saying weird stuff in the background. Neither of us had any memory of a girl being with us, and we still had absolutely no idea who it was.

46. My New Group

I was trying to break into a goth party when I was a younger boy, and it led to a seriously embarrassing moment. I hung out for 10 minutes at a wake that I mistakenly assumed was the party I was planning on attending. Thanks in part to my outfit, nobody suspected anything until I opened my stupid mouth. "Jesus, you guys take this stuff seriously. You even brought a…oh”.

47. I’m An Adult 

On my 18th birthday. My mom thought it would be funny to have everyone dine and dash, sticking me with the bill while I went to the bathroom. But she didn’t stop there. Then when I got home, the locks had been changed and all my stuff had been bagged up in garbage bags and thrown out across the street.

That was awesome. The joke was that since I was an adult I could pay my way in the world from now on.

48. The Wounded Caretaker

My girlfriend of two years ended our relationship a week before her birthday. I had already spent quite a huge amount of money on a surprise party for her and her friends.

So I decided to forget it, I threw it anyways, no sense in wasting all I’d done. So her birthday rolls around and I get everything set up, $200 on drinks, $100 on food, all kinds of decorations, and much more.

She and some of her friends get there and she pulls me aside. I couldn’t believe what she said next. She tells me that she is thankful but wants me to leave because it will be too awkward.

So I did as she asked me to do, as I’m a gentleman. The next day everyone who was at the party asked me why I wasn't there and said they wished I had been, even my ex said the same.

So a couple of weeks go by and one of our close friends wants to have her birthday party at her place as well, I get invited and all that. Things between my ex and I had been alright, we'd talked and stuff felt normal as if we were becoming friends and such. Night of the party, it gets awkward. We are all trying to have a conversation and act normal as if nothing ever happened, but she is just sitting there silently the entire night texting.

Whenever I would leave to go to the bathroom or get another drink, she'd snap out of it and talk to people but as soon as I sat back down she'd get quiet as a mouse.

Next thing I know, some dude shows up that no one invited. Turns out it was the person my ex was texting all night and she invited him over to hook up.

Needless to say, once he showed up it wasn't long before the party ended, but the nightmare didn’t end there. The next day I got a text from my ex complaining about how I ruined the party for everyone. I felt like a fool for caring about a person like that.

49. How Much for The How to Make Friends Course?

At our college, my lab partner had invited me to a party at a hotel with her "camp friends". I didn't know too many people in the area so I didn't think much of it, it sounded like a great way to meet people.

Turns out, it wasn’t as good as it sounded.

She brought me to a cult. First, there was a lecture. It took all of my willpower not to ram my palm through my forehead. Being a little introvert in a new city I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and not ruin any kind of a friendship with this girl. After the lecture we were split up and asked very personal questions, I was asked to sign up for more courses and to give money.

Politely gritting my teeth through the entire ordeal, about to leave she decided to stay, hang out, and get a ride from the other cult members. I had been her ride there, it was a long drive back to my apartment alone.

50. Just Fight Will You

It was my seventeenth birthday. It had started like a normal day at school, completely fine. The only abnormal thing about it was I had to be picked up instead of riding the bus. Well, my brother instead of my mom shows up, and immediately I see something is up.

The look on his face appears as if he had been crying all day. It wasn't until later that I found out that was the day his girlfriend had decided to tell him he had gotten her pregnant, and my mother had been less than happy about it, to say the least. They had fought all day. Needless to say, dinner had been the most awkward moment of my life with pure animosity happening between my mom and brother while also trying to pretend to be happy.
