People Are Sharing All the Most Appreciated Things They Bring to a Party and We Are Taking Notes!

As we are getting our lives back together after the pandemic, many of us are hosting or attending parties again. But after a couple of years of isolating and keeping our distance, we suddenly find ourselves out of practice, not remembering how to be a normal human again. You mean I don’t have to stand over here by the clothesline the whole night? I can move around and maybe even dance? Do I even remember how?

Luckily for all of us antisocial fools out there, someone on Reddit has asked a very good question: What’s an underrated thing to bring to a party?

The answers have us taking notes and making promises to ourselves to be the best party guests ever at the next big bash we attend.

a few packets of frozen Zooper Doopers

a dozen lemons and/or limes

a few bags of ice

80+ chicken nuggets

a whole watermelon

bread, spicy cheese and a sandwich toaster for late-night cheese toasties

Sharpie texta to write names on cups and for custom tattoos

a good card game for people to play (there is a great list here)

a slow cooker full of pulled pork with some fresh buns

a huge tray of homemade mac n cheese

a bucket of chalk

a bag of fortune cookies

life-size cardboard cut out of Nicolas Cage

a kilo of cocktail frankfurts and two dozen dinner rolls for mini hotdogs

a bottle opener with a corkscrew

glowsticks and sparklers

a big platter of fairy bread

a carton of bottles of water (still or sparkling)

at least three bags of frozen Potato Gems and some baking trays

ibuprofen

fresh guacamole

And finally…

a willingness to help clean up afterwards
