what is up with parties?

I hadn't been to a party in forever because i work full time and go to school so my friends invited me to a party. what is up with parties nowadays? i mean there was nothing but this one rap song going over and over and a whole lot of booze girls who have so low of a self-esteem that they'll do anything to get attention like getting up and stripping on a table... it's just degrading. what happened to just having a couple of drinks and having fun? the people i talked to were like i drink alcohol to make me happy. how sad does your life have to be that you get drunk every weekend? idk maybe i'm old fashioned and just like drinking a few beers and talking and hitting up some halo...

the media needs to stop marketing this as cool... cause people get hurt doing this stuff. one of my friends got liver failure at age 20! and he's still drinking. it's sad.

Most of the time it's not the media who is pushing them.

it starts of with one guy who can drink faster then the other en then they get drunk en they vomit and they drink more.
and these are the cool guys so the rests just follows. and at the end they drink so much they get in coma. ( it once happend here in holland)

and i'm not the person to say you should completely stop drinking, cause i like a beer myzelf too, but just cut it down a bit.

and for the girls you're not sexy if you act like a ho

blame the ****ing media for everything we dissaprove of why dont we?viewtifulshmoe

look at the tv for once... look at the crap that people watch on tv now. a lot of it is the parents but people listen to the media more than their parents... and it has a lot to do with the people who think that you have to do that kind of stuff to be cool.
