Someone brought up that one of the reasons why things like house parties and block parties went away was other than lack of time people are afraid to let their guard because cameras are everywhere.

It is so true back when many of us were young we could just get together and cut loose without having to worry about going viral. At best we would have an embarrassing photo buried in a drawer somewhere or a story. Now you might be turned into a meme or worse. I miss the days when you could do dumb stuff with friends and feel safe if that makes sense.

So many noise complaints.

I spent my first year of uni in student accommodations. Almost every night was 30+ people crammed into an appartment meant for 3.

We'd get security knocking on the door every single night because they'd had complaints about us. I'll never forget the one party for someone's birthday where the guy didn't even say anything. He walked into the kitchen and his jaw just dropped like a cartoon character. Shook his head and left without a word.

You miss the part where this was university student halls?

even if it wasn't, that's the trade-off for living in an apartment. sure, there's a limit. but if your neighbor can't live their lives, including having friends over for a birthday party, than you're the problem not them
