Happy New 2018 to all my friends on DU!

[steve2470]

22 hours and 36 minutes to go here

My advice:

1- Do NOT go out. It will be insanely crowded wherever you go, full of drunks, very young people and very rude people.

2- If you MUST go out, yea, take a taxi or Uber or Lyft to get home. Would a taxi be a better bet tonight ? I don't know.

3- If you are going to drive no matter what (soberly I hope), for god's sake, don't drive between 11 PM and 4 AM. I've seen some really serious insanely crazily drunk driving then. I'm lucky to be alive.

4- Stay home by the fire (if in GA or further north hehe), have yourself a nice drink or two or three or a nice um chemical!

Let's hope 2018 is much BETTER than 2017 and yes TRUMP-FREE, Gawd/Allah/Buddha/Abraham/the Universe willing!

1. It will be -14 tomorrow night and I'm not going anywhere.

New Years Eve is amateur night, and the last thing I want is to be out in the cold with a bunch of drunks.

2. yep, or in the heat or...

even in ideal weather lol

Just an insane night.

3. Well I'm getting up in a few hours and working until 4:30 p.m.

So that'll keep me out of trouble. I'll be too tired to party.
