you’re just describing a LAN party or a DND session, nerds have had “parties” without alcohol or drugs for ages.
Comment on A good grade at parties
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 10 months agoWhat few people ever mention is … alcohol and sometimes drugs.
Very few people imagine a party without some intoxicant. Even children’s parties, parents will give a party for the kids but the adults seperate themselves to enjoy a bit of alcohol.
Just think of it … a party with 20 adults and no alcohol or drugs. Some people can do it but the majority of the population would avoid it.

I agree … Nerds and DND people sound like a sensible bunch because they actually go out of their way to have fun without intoxicants.
What I’m talking about is the 90% of the population that can’t relate to other humans without getting a little drunk.

“Many respectable physicists said that they weren’t going to stand for this – partly because it was a debasement of science, but mostly because they didn’t get invited to those sort of parties.”
