I agree, seems like something your grade school teacher would do when you walk into class. Some people also might happen to have personal things going on in which they need to be near their phone or maybe they would like to enjoy candidly taking photos through the night. Etc.
This does make dinner parties sound SUPER pretentious and just kind of ridiculous. Ultimately, you just need a homemade pot of food, some drinks, and somewhere to hold it.Think it's too pricey putting one on yourself... get people to bring stuff! One person for drinks, one for veggies etc. Everyone gets a good meal without spending a fortune. Cheap atmosphere - candles and a playlist can work wonders. Bam - simple dinner party without the pomp.
#6 is the one that resonates with me. The one big party I throw every year is on New Year's Day. I'm never quite ready at the official start time, and, for the first few years, I would never let the early arrivals help set up. In recent years, I've realized that letting people help is a pleasure for all of us. At first, I would give people very specific instructions as to how to help me, which took as long as my doing the deeds myself. Now, I just put someone in charge of a plate or a concept. The worst result that ever came from this approach was that the "Cocktail Tsar" from one of the city's foremost restaurant dynasties plated the whole smoked whitefish that I'd gotten from the Acme Smokehouse without the skin.Would it have been more beautiful sitting in it's golden skin? Sure. Did it taste any less delicious? Not at all.
Lol i would definitely refuse to put my phone in a basket. I'm not 13. I would also probably not go back to their house again to be insulted like that. If your friends are adults they wouldn't be on their phones the whole time at your party anyway.
Why are they so unlikable?
The most important thing should be making your guests feel comfortable... having a cellphone basket is just weird.

This is probably the most "white-people" video, I have seen in a while

Obnoxious stereotypes.
That’s a tad off colour.

"it's like you're going to Bali"
One need not worry about these things if one don't have any friends to invite
jastat
Dude, if this guy has friends, no one else has an excuse.
This guy is super intense
Great video. Nice approach. What not to do!
The comments below are just brutal y'all :)
MegaPeeteer 😂😂 yeah!
"This is full of nutrients that noone knows about"
I hate going to dinner parties with music. Conversation is a battle with the noise

Proboably the worst ba video
Anyone visiting my house thinking they’re gonna get fed will be pooping a pretty small turd.
Sounds like the lamest party ever! Nobody invite this guy to your party !
These people are obnoxious. I wouldn't want to be their guest.
Ridiculous.....cell phone basket?
Yeah...no...
How to lose all of your friends in one night ❤
Wow this the cringiest things i've seen in a while. Ew.
I searched for this after following horrible stoned thoughts to their inevitable conclusion, I'm terrified that its a reality
The woman is half Asian. And this whole thing is still super white and heterosexual.
Lol these people are dull who would waste time going to their party
This lacks testosterone
