    “Oh, right this way! Follow me! Scuse me everyone these guys need to get out — make way, make way! Haha. There you go, buddy. Have a good 'un.”

        Is hot dish unique to Minnesota? I’ve had family in central Wisconsin for decades and don’t think I’ve ever heard it there.

          Usually the further north or out of the city you go the more Minnesota it gets.

          It’s always been casserole for me in Southern Wisconsin myself. I have met people who did cannibal burgers though lol. Bleuuuugh. 🤮

      My wife dragged me to one. I only know 3 of the adults here and 1 is my wife. There are about 8 children overtired and someone gave them noisemakers.

      At least they have a week stocked home bar. Get drunk while I am in hell.

      For real, nobody would see me come in, nobody would see me leave. Much like a ninja in fact, a very lonely, depressed ninja xD

    The simple solution is to set your own phone number as a contact named “John” or something, set up a tasker profile on your phone to text yourself “you coming over soon? The food is getting cold!” after some amount of time. Whoever you’re talking to hears a loud notification sound, maybe sees you reading a text from John asking when you’re coming over, and is unoffended when you say you need to get going because look at the time!

    Of course they would have been unoffended either way, but my brain can’t understand that

    I never understood that introvert/extrovert thing. What does it even mean? I mean, I know what it should represent, but isn’t it a stereotypical categorization that simplifies far too much?

      It definitely is, especially because — as with most of these categorization things — you’re never one or the other, it’s a spectrum
