new year's / new year's eve starters
โNew Yearโs is always the yearโs biggest letdown.โ
โSo, what are your resolutions?โ
โI swear, if I have to hear โAuld Lang Syneโ one more timeโฆโ
โHey, sorry, it took me forever to find a place where my cell could get a signalโฆ happy new yearโs from [location].โ
โWhat have you accomplished this year?โ
โThis year sucked. Good riddance.โ
โLetโs hope this year goes better than the last oneโฆโ
โThereโs a party at [name]โs house. You coming?โ
โWeโre headed to Times Square to watch the ball drop. You can tag along if you want.โ
โHey, last year of [politician your character doesnโt like]!โ
โJust think of all the video games and movies that are being released this yearโฆโ
โNo champagne for me. Designated driver.โ
โGiving up chocolate for new yearโs? I give it a week.โ
โWeโve had a big year.โ
โI plan to hit five parties before midnight.โ
โ3โฆ 2โฆ 1! HAPPY NEW YEAR!โ
โThree biggest moments from this year?โ
โItโs nearly midnightโฆ have you seen my date?โ
โAh, yes, itโs almost midnight, which no one is going to kiss me at.โ
โThis time last year, I was living in a motel. This is definitely an improvement.โ
โIโve heard โAuld Lang Syneโ six times tonight and itโs only 11:30.โ
โAnd to think, this time last year I was dating you.โ
โI need someone to kiss at midnight. You up to it?โ
โI need your help. I want to kiss [name] at midnight, and I need you to help me make it happen.โ
โItโs New Yearโs. Arenโt we supposed to be making out?โ
โOh, God, my ex is here. Pass the champagne.โ
โLook, I know youโd rather be in bed, but could you at least pretend to be excited?โ
โA toast to my amazing friends, and to the new year!โ
โI shouldโve been in bed two hours ago.โ
โAre you sure [name] is up to stay awake until midnight? I mean, s/heโs only [age]โฆโ
โPsst. Hey. Hey, wake up. Itโs midnight. Make your resolutions.โ
โI swear, if next New Yearโs, weโre in the same place we are now, shoot me. Just do it. Iโm serious. Just shoot me.โ
โI remember when Iโd get so excited for New Yearโsโฆโ
โYโknow, New Yearโs sort of loses its punch when you stay up until 2 AM every night anywayโฆโ
โI like to think we grew up this year.โ
โNo firecrackers this year. The neighbors complained.โ
โIโm tipsy, covered in streamers, surrounded by hung over people, I have Auld Lang Syne stuck in my head, and I donโt know where my cell phone is. It is New Yearโs.โ
โYou know, under the circumstances, I think this isnโt such a bad impromptu New Yearโs party.โ
โI canโt believe you gave our son/daughter champagne!โ
โCome on, itโs New Yearโs Eve, you canโt spend the whole party hiding in the bathroom!โ
โAny good New Yearโs specials on?โ
โIโve had a glass of champagne, I made my resolution, I watched the clock strike midnight. Iโm going to bed.โ
โYouโre crazy. That place is always a zoo on New Yearโs.โ
โJust pick an outfit so we can go. I mean, itโs just a New Yearโs party, itโs not a black-tie event.โ
โWe should probably get back to the party.โ
โWhat are you doing out here on the roof? The partyโs inside.โ
โSnow on New Yearโs! Wish it had bothered to show up for Christmasโฆโ
โWhereโs [name]? S/heโs my ride.โ
โI rented a limo. We are arriving to that party in style.โ
โTo 2015. May it not totally fuck us in the ass.โ
