Help! How to leave a boring party?

“You know what they say: Always leave when you’re winning!”
Or something like that.

Or “I’m getting old. I usually am asleep by now.”

This whole things sounds like one of the plots to a Seinfeld episode.

Look behind you, it’s Nor_Treblig!

One could say to the host/-ess “I think it’s time for you to leave”, for which the answer would be “but I live here” (if the party is at their home), and for that one could reply “you’re right, I’ll go”.

I have lots of excuses to avoid going directly, so I’m not good at excuses for leaving.

I would say they usually involve the children being tired, but that’s the very same reason I left @Ema’s birthday part earlier yesterday and now he’ll think it was a fake excuse :stuck_out_tongue:

I think there are many possible solutions to the problem. Unleash a deadly monkey in the crowd; call the police saying there’s been a murder; put sleeping pills in the punch bowl…

Personally I wouldn´t take any kind of advice from Rev. Jim Jones…
