new year's / new year's eve starters
βNew Yearβs is always the yearβs biggest letdown.β
βSo, what are your resolutions?β
βI swear, if I have to hear βAuld Lang Syneβ one more timeβ¦β
βHey, sorry, it took me forever to find a place where my cell could get a signalβ¦ happy new yearβs from [location].β
βWhat have you accomplished this year?β
βThis year sucked. Good riddance.β
βLetβs hope this year goes better than the last oneβ¦β
βThereβs a party at [name]βs house. You coming?β
βWeβre headed to Times Square to watch the ball drop. You can tag along if you want.β
βHey, last year of [politician your character doesnβt like]!β
βJust think of all the video games and movies that are being released this yearβ¦β
βNo champagne for me. Designated driver.β
βGiving up chocolate for new yearβs? I give it a week.β
βWeβve had a big year.β
βI plan to hit five parties before midnight.β
β3β¦ 2β¦ 1! HAPPY NEW YEAR!β
βThree biggest moments from this year?β
βItβs nearly midnightβ¦ have you seen my date?β
βAh, yes, itβs almost midnight, which no one is going to kiss me at.β
βThis time last year, I was living in a motel. This is definitely an improvement.β
βIβve heard βAuld Lang Syneβ six times tonight and itβs only 11:30.β
βAnd to think, this time last year I was dating you.β
βI need someone to kiss at midnight. You up to it?β
βI need your help. I want to kiss [name] at midnight, and I need you to help me make it happen.β
βItβs New Yearβs. Arenβt we supposed to be making out?β
βOh, God, my ex is here. Pass the champagne.β
βLook, I know youβd rather be in bed, but could you at least pretend to be excited?β
βA toast to my amazing friends, and to the new year!β
βI shouldβve been in bed two hours ago.β
βAre you sure [name] is up to stay awake until midnight? I mean, s/heβs only [age]β¦β
βPsst. Hey. Hey, wake up. Itβs midnight. Make your resolutions.β
βI swear, if next New Yearβs, weβre in the same place we are now, shoot me. Just do it. Iβm serious. Just shoot me.β
βI remember when Iβd get so excited for New Yearβsβ¦β
βYβknow, New Yearβs sort of loses its punch when you stay up until 2 AM every night anywayβ¦β
βI like to think we grew up this year.β
βNo firecrackers this year. The neighbors complained.β
βIβm tipsy, covered in streamers, surrounded by hung over people, I have Auld Lang Syne stuck in my head, and I donβt know where my cell phone is. It is New Yearβs.β
βYou know, under the circumstances, I think this isnβt such a bad impromptu New Yearβs party.β
βI canβt believe you gave our son/daughter champagne!β
βCome on, itβs New Yearβs Eve, you canβt spend the whole party hiding in the bathroom!β
βAny good New Yearβs specials on?β
βIβve had a glass of champagne, I made my resolution, I watched the clock strike midnight. Iβm going to bed.β
βYouβre crazy. That place is always a zoo on New Yearβs.β
βJust pick an outfit so we can go. I mean, itβs just a New Yearβs party, itβs not a black-tie event.β
βWe should probably get back to the party.β
βWhat are you doing out here on the roof? The partyβs inside.β
βSnow on New Yearβs! Wish it had bothered to show up for Christmasβ¦β
βWhereβs [name]? S/heβs my ride.β
βI rented a limo. We are arriving to that party in style.β
βTo 2015. May it not totally fuck us in the ass.β
