This wasn’t a party. This was a lifestyle choice. And I was all in.
The punch bowl was a cauldron of chaos. It started as mulled wine. Then someone added Everclear. Then someone else threw in a candy cane, a melatonin gummy, and a goldfish cracker for protein. By midnight, the punch had achieved sentience. It whispered my name. It asked me if I believed in Santa. I said yes, and it replied, “Good. Because he’s currently trying to fight the thermostat.” gonzo christmas orgy
This is the Gonzo lifestyle: high velocity, low inhibition, zero apologies. You don’t exchange gifts. You steal them. Secret Santa becomes Not-So-Secret Anarchy —I walked out with a lava lamp, a jar of pickled eggs, and someone’s emotional-support hamster (RIP, Gerald, you knew the risks). This wasn’t a party
I found the host, Nick, sitting alone in the kitchen, drinking eggnog straight from the carton. His eyes were hollow. His Santa hat was on backward. The punch bowl was a cauldron of chaos
Then he passed out face-first into a plate of ham.
