Despite all the awfulness, it can be kinda nice to be amongst a lot of humans celebrating something.
I mean, I’m not doing it, but it’s not all bad.
I usually get myself so distracted by something that I don’t even realize the new year has started until about 30 minutes past midnight. I didn’t know why I bother stay up any more.
The last time I went to a bar on New Year Eve, I paid 20 bucks to get in, bought my first drink and started goofy dancing to a song that came on the radio. Then I got thrown out for being intoxicated.
That’s actually a pretty funny story
Staying at home myself, but I think the trick is to enjoy the moments between those frames.
If you don’t enjoy the moments in those frames, don’t go to some overcrowded place. There are no moments in between.
A lot of people enjoy it. I can’t understand them, so I stick to small crowds.
The moments in between are usually comprised of dissociation and wishing I was anywhere else. The crowd has already sapped me of any energy I would’ve used to yell over the music while
talking toyelling at friends.
Have always stayed home, away from the drunk drivers. Will continue to do so.
Laughs in celebrating new year’s at home
Why I will never understand or relate to extroverts.
My admittedly boring method:
-
stay home
-
do stuff, maybe video games
-
go to sleep whenever I feel like it
-
wake up at the normal time
I’m with you
I used to stay up when I was younger just to witness the year changing, but now I’m old and just go to bed. It will be there in the morning.
I’ve found that, at least for me, I need to do social things, amazing things, and ceremony around it is also fine. Otherwise, I lose track of time and dark thoughts happen.
I encourage all to celebrate holidays or special events as much as you can, while you can. Every morning you wake up and can see and hear and smell and taste and feel and think. And if you’re short somewhere in that list, you probably already understand what I’m talking about. Life is short and a lot of people want yours to be shitty. Don’t let them win.
That being said, if you like playing videogames, don’t let the people who don’t appreciate that to make you feel like that isn’t quality time.

I’ve never been out on new year’s, I’ve always been in my home or a friend’s or family member’s. Oh, tell a lie, on the millennium I was at church.
Yeah nah, imma be asleep 😴
Staying home has been the way for me for years. I fucking hate overcrowded bars.
In my younger years I partied wild and even hosted parties with hundreds of guests (rented facilities).
Since my 40s I stay at home and go to bed at 10 pm latest.
This is the way.
I’m not 40 yet and I was in bed by 8PM. 😬
My wife and I threw a 40th birthday party for me and that’s it. That was nearly 5 years ago now and we’re probably never hosting a party ever again lmao.
this is the worst comic ive ever seen. 3 frames are literally just the same drawing
I took that as being part of the point.
It is a waste of a comic format. Would have been better as just text.
true. not only is it the same drawing, it adds nothing, not even once 😭
Seriously, draw people getting into a place, draw them getting drinks, draw them waiting for Uber or some shit.
they can even have a :( face while looking at $$$ labels on the drinks. instead theyre just expressionless
I made a tasty blueberry lavender cake, leek gratin with homemade bread and watched the stranger things finale. Ideally I’d go to sleep now but goddamn fireworks are scaring my dog.
I’m so glad that my partner and I just stay in and enjoy each other’s company with some drinks. Going out on NYE is absolutely god awful.
