It doesn't take much to ruin the party mood.

Anything can tank a good time.

Usually, it's a guest who has decided to act a fool who brings down the atmosphere.

But it can also be the menu, the music, the neighbors... the list is endless.

A party is a fragile experiment.

Play it fun.


Redditor Joeyniles9 wanted to discuss all the things people have done that destroy the good time, so they asked:

"What instantly kills the vibe at a party?"

Anything. Anything can kill a vibe at a party.

Especially with perfect timing.

Lights Out

"Someone putting the big light on."

"Used to work at a bowling alley. On the weekends we had cosmic bowling (dark, black lights, fog machine, disco lights). At midnight we would turn the music off and the big fluorescent lights on so people would go home. The vibe kill was instantaneous."

Elden RIng

"If the hosts are a couple, and they get into a fight."

MightyMCY

"For real, I was at a couple of friend's places for a chill party once and the guy started getting angry at his GF for asking him something while we took turns playing Elden Ring. It became increasingly awkward and they moved their argument into the kitchen, then it turned into a real fight with screaming and dishes thrown on the floor."

"Eventually when someone suggested that they calmed down and the guy became hysterical, threw everyone out including his GF, and said it was her fault the party was ruined. I took pity on her so I drove her to her place, and ended up consoling her until 3 AM. Turns out they'd been fighting before about cheating on one another.

"They're due to get married at the end of the year but I'd be surprised their relationship lasts that long."

Nesting

"I was at a staff party with an open bar, and it reached the time when the first clusters of guests were leaving. When they went to get their coats from the closet, they discovered a young new team member who we thought had left hours ago. He had stripped off all his clothes, made a nest of jackets, soiled everything, and passed out. Killed the vibe for sure."

Damn Kids

"When someone gets extremely wasted and too out of control (starts to pick fights, has drunk fits, will sprawl on the ground, needs 100% supervision, has to be carried around). You just wanna chill and enjoy the party but you can't cuz you're stuck babysitting them."

Akai_Sakita

"Uggggh yeah been there, had to babysit a drunk Belgium kid (he was like 18/19) and watch half my group make out with each other in Amsterdam, killed my night hard."

The S

"Aggressive drunk(s)."

"I think the S is needed. A single, aggressive drunk can be headed off. The party can pinball them around the place and make them feel special...and, if not, push them into a ditch."

"Multiple aggressive drunks? GTFO. Now."

fishsticklovematters

Time for some coffee darlings.

Song Killer

"When someone changes a song before the best part... I've done this and got my dumba** ex-communicated... rightfully."

The Pooper

"A friend of mine announced she had to fart to the entire kitchen while she was intoxicated. She proceeded to sh*t liquid diarrhea on herself. It hit the floor, and it smelled terrible. Party ended before it really ever began. Guess she had some stomach bug or IBS or something. She ended up getting diapers for any gift-giving occasion after. No clue where she ended up, we lost touch a year or so later."

It was Him

"One time, my brother (14 at the time) wanted to see how hard it would be to dig out a 1 meter x 1-meter square hole out of the ground (Minecraft inspired.) He spent a good amount of time over a weekend digging, until he got bored. It was mostly finished."

"Fast forward a couple of months. I throw a party at my dad's house and we're having a blast. A bonfire out back and everything."

"A kind-hearted attendee noticed the pit in the ground and made it his duty to guard the pit, for he did not want anyone to get hurt."

"Someone got hurt. Spoiler alert: it was him. HE fell into the pit - our brave guard. Thankfully, we had a sober person there and they drove him to the hospital, but that instantly killed the vibe at the party."

But Damn

"An overdose."

eatafetus632"

I witnessed this. The host and two friends went to a room to do a little booger sugar, but it must have been laced with fentanyl or something. They were found unresponsive - Party over, paramedics, cops, etc. Narcan definitely saved them and they made a full recovery, but damn. What a horrible night."

Bar Fail

"Shortage of drinks when everything is closed."

ads5531

"Ah yes, time for the Adventure (gathers the folks for the quest to the closest gas station to buy more alcohol, gets lost twice, changes destination several times, 3 people go missing, somebody passes out, drink entire booze before they make their way back home)."

Trump, who was named the publication's Person of the Year for the second time, stated that one of the key issues Democrats and his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, fail to grasp about the American people is that "they want to be able to buy groceries at a reasonable price and not have to turn off their heat in order to buy two apples."
