At most social events like disco, big parties etc, where the goal is wrecking your liver and dance to shitty music, while losing your hearing in the meantime.

Even with some friends, you cannot talk to them because everything is loud or stinks like shitty cigarettes. What's the point?

Why would you ever go to parties with shitty music? The goal is to go to parties where the djs are good and playing music you like.

The parties with shitty music where everyone is getting shitfaced are for hooking up, that’s the primary goal for those and for the people that attend them. If that’s not your goal you’re obviously not gonna enjoy it.

If you want to go out to dance to good music, there’s also parties for that, where people might drink but no one is getting shitfaced. People might be getting high in other ways, but still, no one is getting shitfaced.

And idk, is it really crazy to understand why human beings, a species that evolved for millions of years to be the most social species outside of insects, would enjoy going to social events..?

You might just be ND, and that’s fine. But it’s really like 0 brain effort to try to understand this.

I literally answered the post question, i don't know why you got so passionate about this. Read my other comment if you're curious, i enjoy different social events...

This is the THE most terminally online dork response I've ever seen.

[–] Wild_Mastic@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I mean, i prefer hiking and nature. I also enjoy live performance of groups i listen to, but numb disco with dumb music is an hard pass for me

That's fine. I even somewhat agree with you. However, acting like you are above doing what millions of people enjoy is some real dork shit.
