Throwing a small party during the pandemic requires a plan. Guests don't always stick to it. “Everyone just ended up sitting where they wanted.”

Throwing a party––a real, in-person party––during a pandemic means pondering questions rarely covered in books of etiquette.

Which guests should be crossed off the list as too risky or too much at risk? How to deal with huggers who fail to suppress their instincts? Will there be access to a bathroom? And is it appropriate to use a bottle of hand sanitizer as a table centerpiece?

Or just don't throw a fucking party during a pandemic. FFS

Unless it's over zoom, you don't.

How about not throwing one at all?!

How very ...

So, if guests don't 'stick to it' then they are not your friends, and should not be in your home. The worst outcome is not a dirty carpet you'll need to steam clean. The worst outcome is you being intubated on a ventilator, hoping you'll live.

You don’t.

Which is why you DON'T throw a party!

No parties thank you.

So dont offer a party? I mean, why is this an article in the middle of a pandemic? idiot COVID19 WearAMask juststayhome partyfoul

Um just don’t

Really? That’s what we’re pondering? Not how messed up it is that people ARE partying? Nice, - clickbait - and you got me.

Answer: you don’t. There’s a global pandemic happening. FFS...

America just had its second lowest death count day with the virus since the peak in March

Stay home. Stay quarantined until there is a vaccine or a federal plan for mitigation. Screw your party

How about, just don’t?

Nor do anarchist protesters...please opine further...

Why would you throw a party at all during a pandemic? Dumb.

You just do it.

Americans, live your lives and know you are being LIED TO.

How to throw a party right now: DON'T

Is it like a chickenpox party? Asking for a friend.

Actually it doesn’t require a plan. It just requires you show up. Just had 35-40 folks over for swim, cookout, games. When “protests” of 1K people were gathering every night for 5 weeks now, all of the nonsense “safety measures” became “over”

Just call it a demonstration, problem solved.

What if you just don't?

DON’T THROW A PARTY. END OF PROBLEM.

Don’t

This is how millennials think, don’t think! Amazing they even manage to feed themselves. wsj is now jokeMedia like the rest.

Learn to live with the disease yo -White House

How about you just have the party and live your life 🙄

Just claim it’s a BLM party. BLM is celebrating uncle Abe’s something or other, torch a police station, topple a statue, terrorize a suburban family, and all is well in the eyes of the law and the coronavirus Hall Monitors.

Just wear it

On Zoom

How about not having a party until it is safer to do so.

first step is turn off the worthless media

None of the above. Enjoy life and no fear

And for the record, the average American is currently dreading how to plan a party with hand sanitizer centerpieces. They’re trying to get by on reduced hours afraid they’re going to get the virus. Tone deaf BS article.

Stop this shite already

Make it outdoors, a masquerade, disposable cutlery etc and bring along a serve of Common Sense

Literally don’t.

Don’t.

Really, I hug all my friends all the time, kids okay with all the kids on block all the time. US C19 death rate less than 0.0%. No math skills killing nation via ignorance of data. 99% recover even if ya get it.

Oh God not the hugging! Everytime I see someone I just feel an urge to hug em. I need that hit. Without hugs, how could we possibly hang out with anyone anymore‽‽‽

Nice

This world is like demolition man..all we need to do next is make all restaurants taco bell under mandate

I have a genius idea. How about you stay the hell home cause there’s a pandemic going!!! Articles like this suggests it’s still ok 🤦🏾‍♂️

Here's how: you don't.

Dont unless you're planning funerals.

Go to a restaurant and eat outside.

Don’t?

Just called the party a protest. Apparently the virus doesn’t spread that way.

This is my experience so far. Clients do not respect vendors contracts.

Should we....?

There's one easy way: don't.
