lol at thinking there are "manly" drinks

I mean I really do mostly drink whiskey on rocks or straight up but that has a lot more to do with disliking sweet foods and my alcoholism than my manliness or probable lack thereof

I thought everyone knew what a Tupperware party was

Banana splits macro otm, they were better than pretty much any other band in the last 40+ years.

I know, or at least think I know, what a Tupperware party is; just baffled what it's doing in a litany of racy things YOUR MOM did before Dad.

lol, nudge, wink, etc.

box fresh

I only know what a Tupperware Party is in the literal sense of Tupperware previously being a product sold by individuals, like Avon, and people had parties to try to sell Tupperware to other people but if there is some other sexy meaning, I am unaware, and I have no idea how that would suggest your mother had an exciting life prior to meeting your father (and apparently trading in all that excitement for a lifetime of domestic drudgery) unless they are saying it was some kind of lesbian thing.

I thought it was implying a wife swap sort of thing.

they are probably conflating it with suburban mom sex toy parties.

which is a thing i only know about from t.v.

did i use the word conflating correctly in that sentence?

Yes you did.

Also that's what I was thinking, too, but having been to one of those sex toy parties, let me tell you they are not actually that sexy.

It's not a thing I would cite when explaining to my child that I had a crazy, independent life before Jeff yolked me into patriarchal slavery and made me stop drinking Canadian Club.

Key parties? Are they thinking of key parties?

yeah i have heard of them as key parties -- everyone puts their keys into a bowl, you pull one, that's the person you make it with that night, you might smoke some acapulco gold and listen to todd rundgren and then maybe retire to one of the rooms upstairs to see if you can manage to get it on with this man/woman who is someone else's spouse.

no idea what tupperware parties have to do with that?

note: i asked my mom about key parties once when i was a kid because i think i had seen it in a movie or something and that's the description she gave me, only i added the acapulco gold + todd rundgren. the rest is what she told me.

maybe the keys are in a tupperware bowl

maybe in the 80s they changed the name to tupperware parties?

the ice storm. famous for that. i'm pretty sure my parent's suburban 70's connecticut potlucks weren't as steamy. though they did hang out with lots of unitarians, so you never know.

i actually remember that ice storm. from the ice storm book/movie. i was there, man.

tupperware parties were just tupperware parties! in the old days someone had to come to your house to sell you plastic bowls. very primitive society.

i wouldn't mind reading/seeing/hearing some firsthand recollections of 70s key parties
how old would those people be now?

i love the ice storm

xp 115-120

my hometown newspaper on the ice storm:

http://www.newstimes.com/news/article/Region-remembers-ice-storm-of-73-97594.php

Don't see any action happening with Rundgren on the box. Lightfoot, maybe.

i remember coming home at night and we had this loooooong steep driveway and it was just covered with sheets of ice and i had a big red stuffed mouse toy and i rode my mouse down the driveway. kinda fucked up its fur. the world looked so amazing.

how old would those people be now?

Old enough to where you'd regret hearing about them?

I saw a sky blue Plymouth Reliant K parked on the street with VIETNAM VETERAN plates. Seems like yesterday those guys were a bunch of Jeff Lebowskis, and now they're all more like these Lawrence Tierney type guys.

You know you're getting older when old people start getting younger.

I would never regret hearing about them! I love it when old people talk about their wild days.

Honestly, there are sooooooo many better 70s choices for getting it on than Rundgren or Lightfoot that I pity anyone who had to give it a whirl with those two. It's part of what makes those stories painful and poignant. How awkward!
