Whether you go out once a month or every night, you’ve definitely seen (or been) at least one of these 10 people at a party.
1. The Gatekeepers.
Whether you’re trying to get into a frat or a house party, there’s bound to be someone guarding the door who will inevitably ask you, “Who do you know here?”
2. The Outsiders.
At any party, there’s going to be some poor souls who didn’t get in and will ask you to try and get them in. Whether they’re floating out by the door or accosting passerby on the street, it’s best just to mumble “sorry” and go on your merry way.
3. The Google Mappers.
Probably a group of freshmen (see below), these are the people wandering the streets clutching their iPhones, calling out to each other “we take a right here…no wait we missed a turn, turn around!!”
4. The Herd.
Mostly spotted in the beginning of the year, this massive herd of 20+ freshmen will roll up to any party and hope to get in. Though their squad may roll deep, they have no idea how party etiquette works.
5. The Super Senior.
Distinguishable by the fact that they’re probably in sweats and that they know everyone at the party, this super senior can chug a beer with the best of them and has been since they were a freshman.
6. The Celebrity.
Be it the student body president, the Vine star or that student athlete everyone knows, as soon as they walk through the door they’ll be accosted by people asking for pictures and handing them drinks. If they show up to the party you’re at, you chose the right party.
7. The Overdresser.
It could be a boy in a suit or a girl in a skin tight bodycon with heels on, but they obviously did not get the memo that it’s a casual party. If it’s a girl in heels, befriend her so she has someone to lean on once she breaks her ankle on the sticky floor. This could also be the person who showed up dressed as the wrong theme–no matter the case, befriend them.
8. The Creep.
The creepy guy in the corner that nobody knows, watching for his prey. If you see this guy coming towards you while you’re dancing, shimmy away and make sure he gets nowhere near you.
9. The Queen.
That girl who slays the second she walks in the door. After an hour of dancing, shots and sweating, her hair and makeup still look flawless and all you wanna do is follow her into the bathroom and ask her what primer and setting spray she uses.
10. The Drunk.
This person turned their pregame into the game. They showed up to the party already drunk, and they’re probably going really hard in the middle of the dance floor. Coordinated or not, they know how to have fun.
