    Poor people should not host parties.

    We can host parties but we make sure to have enough plastic spoons in the can of porknbeans. Geez, we know how to be classy even if we're poor, Mr. Fancypants.
    That was a soundbite statement, not something I would mean to heart ;)

    But seriously, some people are so tacky they invite me to a party and they say - well, we bought pizzas and soda. And I stand there like what the fudge.... I don't eat that *kitten* at a party.

    Well, I was going to invite you to my pizza party with @littlemissbgiff. Both of us ;ladies were going to be nood. And I was going to let you record the twister game. Damn.

    I have been very nice today

    maybe if you bring cream puffs

    Look this pizza party is going down no matter who shows up

    I'm on my way with crisco for the twister, bottles of wine and brownies. We know how to throw a party, damn it!

    You know I live a good game of turn off all the lights and guess who is in my mouth, right?

    I do remember we have talked about this game before! Sounds like it's shaping up to be a great party! Then maybe we will get a real mouth full of cream puffs!

    That's a very classist statement. Very jerk move considering you are "so against the caste sytem," yet here you are telling poor people they can't have social events. Not cool dude.
    Stop it. I didn't really mean it ;)

    Ok

    I typically hover by the booze at a party not really the food.

    Yeah was there any alcohol there?

    The host should have bought more cream puffs. I'm Italian and Jewish and it's in my blood to overdo food. But I find most people don't have enough. If you know you're going to have 40 guests, you buy (or make) enough for everyone plus extra. It's ridiculous to think people will only eat one cream puff ...
    At every party my family and friends have, we make enough for people to TAKE HOME. Talk about over cooking.

    When my mom invites this host over to our social parties, she gives them so many different pastry options. My mom literally force feeds people. At the end of the night, she gives away all of the left overs to party guests.But then to get invited to someone's party and being treated that way, it's really offensive.

    If you already knew, why'd you ask?

    I was offended. Wanted to see if others would be in such situation

    No. Especially if I were eating like 4 cream puffs. If it is a party, the polite thing to do would be to take 1 or 2

    hey if its a party I'm eating as many cream puffs as I want....nobody is going to stop me.

    This was so dirty in my mind as I read it :p

    So she hosts a party and the menu is cheetohs, chips and cream puffs? Was there any booze at least?

    You get invited to a bday party. You're just eating a few cream puffs and just enjoying yourself. Then the party host comes to you and tells you to eat less so others can have some of the cream puffs also. Would you be offended?

    Tell
    40 ish guests. 30 puffs. You had about 5 but that's all you've had at this party.

    Ask him or her what kind of *kitten* *kitten* invites 40 people to a party with only 30 creme puffs? I *kitten* love creme puffs *kitten*. Maybe ask how much do you enjoy creme puffs on your next party invitation!

    I freaken love cream puffs. It's always been a favorite.

    I really do too. The thought of someone telling me to eat less cream puffs fills me with rage. This host sounds like such a dolt. I'm imagining her ordering 30 cream puffs for the party but stocking up on 90 or so dry, crumbly cookies and telling people to eat up those awful cookies. I only like to attend parties hosted by foodies who understand the love of good food. Non-foodies should delegate to an upscale catering company or a party consultant who makes all important decisions concerning food and budget. Or call @littlemissbgiff during the planning stage. She probably throws down some good plentiful eats at a party.

    Not sure if this is a compliment or an insult. But Ima go with compliment

    I don't even know what thread I'm in anymore.

    This seems to be a really petty thing to be offended about. Someone invited you to a birthday party to share a moment with you and they felt that you were close enough to be part of it. Perhaps more people showed up than expected. Maybe the host had something important come up and couldn't run to the store to get extra cream puffs and was trying to make the most of what they had. Maybe they are poor planners and figured that cream puffs wouldn't be that popular. Usually when I go to a party that someone has invited me to, it's to spend time with those people. It is an added bonus when they provide food and drinks.

    Nah...F uck that. B)

    I would've been mortified that someone commented that I was eating "too many" of something. Thankfully, I've only heard stuff like that a couple of times in private, although the way I used to post up next to the food, there was plenty of opportunity.

    30 cream puffs is a lot for 40 guests, likely just half would eat some...not likely more than two, though. Were there other desserts options?

    You said they ought to have a backup in the kitchen just in case. Did you mean just in case someone houses them? They probably figured guests wouldn't make a meal out of the cream puffs as it's not fair to other guests. Unless they state that there will be more of something coming out, assume what you see is all they have.
