ok iwtv is legitimately hilarious. i did not expect it to be so, like, classically funny? if that makes sense? like the scene where they bicker about the guy that louis killed for being a racist dick? and then the cut to the parallel coffins? beautifully goofy. chefs kiss. 100% into it
itโs like the juxtaposition of this honestly absurd subject matter (killing a man for being racist and drinking his blood because youโre a vampire) with ridiculous surroundings (two coffins right next to each other like any domestic leave it to beaver household) with a recognizable cadence (a couple having a little spat)โฆ.and then the coffin peeeeaks open a little bitโฆ.ludicrous. i love it
โyou guys have a thread on 8chan?โ

For real though:
Serve Coffee
Turn the lights up higher
Turn off the music
Start cleaning up or washing dishes
Put away drinks and food. Offer people portions of the leftovers.
Return things to their normal, non guest accommodating state (take the leaf out of the table, put away extra seating)
Thank people for coming
Discuss (in the past tense) how lovely the visit/party/gathering was
Ask people about their arrangements to get home safely
Ask people about their plans for the rest of the day/evening
Inform them of your plans for the rest of the day/evening
If your guests still won't take the hint, you're just gonna have to pretend your appendix burst or something.
so I just started saying,
"it's been lovely, but I need to kick you out now. let's do this again soon!"
then i help them gather their things, make sure they have a way home, and hug them goodbye
alternatively, you can also try (and adjust to your needs/speech patterns):
- "wow, look at the time!" <- a subtle way of pointing out it's getting late
- "don't you have a long way back [home]?" <- works best if they do have a long commute, but puts the concern on your guest and their schedule
- "i've got an early day tomorrow." <- you can also list the commitments (eg: work or appointments) that you cannot be late for or skip out on
- "i need to do something after this so i need to go." / "someone's expecting me after this so i need to go." <- again gives the sense you can't be late or skip things, plus adds a sense of urgency for guests to hurry up so you can leave too
- "i had a long day and gotta get some rest." / "i'm tired so i gotta go to bed." <- the last one assumes it's around bedtime, but both are straightforward and people are typically sympathetic to needing rest/sleep
any of these can also be accompanied by: "it'll take me time to tidy up first," which adds another sense of urgency. and if they're nice (and/or it's culturally acceptable) most folks start to help with the clean up too
i've used these myself and they usually work. if guests aren't receptive to the subtlety (or honesty bc many of these excuses can also just be true), then it's just better to say, "i'm sorry, but this is all the time i have for you today."
and personally, if my guests aren't receptive to any of these, i start to reconsider if i want to invite them over again ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
โwow, look at the time!โ
<- a subtle way of pointing
out itโs getting late
