The Anthropologist's Xmas Party

Let's face it... sometimes we are Spousal Units at rituals to which we are not, and never will be, connected. We stand back & watch people swap incidents & language we do not understand, telling tales of mysterious events that were apparently hilarious, frustrating, or important. We understand the Primary Participants through the gossip we're given over the years and the behaviors we observe between the members at these heightened group gatherings.

We feel like Anthropologists.

"Flavorful fluids containing behavior-altering intoxicants. Vocalizations raise in volume throughout the rituals, much attention and laughter given to sexual references. Costuming generally more complex and less modest or practical than during their common shared daily activities. Designated couplings seem to lose some clarity. Non-tribe members tend to linger outside of the event cores."

Happy Office Parties to All,

Ronn.
