no, obviously not ALL games ever are fun
and things like pin the tail on the donkey are for kids, but it's ok to enjoy occasional silliness, I think anyone who steadfastly refuses revert to childish fun is probably pretty boring and a bit miserable.

I know how to have 'fun' just as much as anyone else
When me and my friends get together we invariably end up laughing like drains for the whole of the night. The main thing is, it isn't organised, or pre-ordained in an attempt to have 'fun'. People who have to sit and think about to inject fun into their get togethers are tedious cunts who don't know how to do it naturally.

It's not injecting fun, nor is it forced or that organised
it's just doing something a bit different than sitting around chatting like you do every other weekend.

Sometimes it's fun to have a bit of imagination. It's not like I'm going to be dressed up like a girl guide and make everyone wear name tags.

I like how putting 'fun' in inverted commas makes it sound like it's such an alien concept to you.

I can see where you are coming from
However, if someone has sat and thought about it, then it is organised and that can annoy me, only when the protagonists get huffy when you don't want to join in on the fun.

Much like fucking Halloween. When I was a kid, it was KIDS who got dressed up and went out begging for sweets, monkey nuts and possibly money. These days the town is filled with HILARIOUS adults dressed up. The woman invariably dressed as sluts, and the men dressed up as cunts.

So when I voice my opinion that I don't really mind folk doing this, but it isn't my thing, I get lambasted for being a spoilsport and not wanting to join in, God forgive me, the fun.

Fun, for me, is people doing what makes them happy, not what other idiots THINK they should be doing. This goes for MASSIVE DRUGS as well.

I understand, I hate when people try and force me into drinking games
this is why I want a specific mix of games that you don't have to play if you don't want to, I definitely won't be forcing anyone, and I want games where people can dip in and out. I don't want to have to regiment the evening, I'll be leaving it up to people if they want to play.

Because it's Halloween I do ask that people dress up, but this will be the 5th annual Kitty's Halloween Party and every year the rule is "no slutty bunnies or otherwise" and my friends do always make an effort to be a bit original. Last year one of my friends made a full on Optimus Prime suit out of cardboard, it was brilliant.

This is also why I asked b3tans what they thought because I wanted things that even the most miserable of people would maybe concede to join in with.
