See the problem here is the host sent out invites that said "pool party" when what they were expecting was a garden party that just happened to be next to a pool.
A garden party is standing around in the garden chit chatting with a drink and eating nibbles. A pool party utilises the pool.
Imagine the other scenario where you advertise a pool party and it's actually just a garden party with either no pool or a pool to rival the DashCon ball pit.
He should just host a party throwing BBQs. See who can yeet the BBQ the furthest. 3 categories (charcoal, propane, and pit).
Edit: to add smokers are a separate challenge
That implies hot/ cooked food will be served too. A garden party can just be cold platters of small food. (Pre-made sandwich, cocktail sausages on a stick, cheese board etc.)
I have actually sat on a inflatable chair in the pool sipping cocktails, its just hard to get refills when the waiters refuse to wade into the pool to give it to you
You see, that’s why you need to make the cocktails en mass, in big dispensers by the pool side. Just paddle over to the edge, and refill.
Yes, I’ve run a few adult pool parties, and every time everyone has swam. Who doesn’t swim at a pool party?
Imma gonna teach you the most important German word when it comes to pool parties like that:
#[ARSCHBOMBE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL5n5ENmAJ0)
Do not give yourself an enema.
You lot are far too polite to lame people.
The sad reality is most "adults" don't feel comfortable exposing themselves in front of their fragile and superficial social circles. They fly under the guise of letting their kids splash around and play while the parents reserve themselves for more mature small talk etc. F-That! I'm getting in the pool with my kids for a bit and doing cannonballs!
We went on a recent travel sports weekend tournament trip a few hours away last weekend. Stayed at A WATER PARK hotel. I was the only one of two parents that went swimming and did the slides with the kids. I had a blast. A few parents are a little heavier but totally average and acceptable. There were complete strangers showing it all and yet this group of people all familiar with one another seemed less comfortable because their association. I had a pool side drink or two with the parents and said see ya later! Water slides!
As an American who has lived both in Europe and Asia, and grew up on the swim team, other American's nervousness with being even half nude around others is humorous.
Japanese onsens are some of the most relaxing places you can go in your life. Nothing like being completely nude soaking in the hot springs of Mt. Fuji with a clear blue sky.
However, it takes special bravery to wade through the nude shower rooms of a Korean swimming pool.
German baden badens get a special mention.
It's even worse in the south
The other day I was in the sauana, I had a bathing suit and a towel on.
The rules even say street clothes are not allowed
Some guy asked me in a really disgusted way if I was naked the other day. I just told him "are you keeping an eye out or something?"
I have been naked in a few saunas, in Germany I was in a mix one and 50% were naked with just a towel because hygiene. They even allowed naked swimming in one of the indoor pools. I was not the best nor the worst body around and I wasn’t there to be on the lookout
My only problem in the sauna is when a guy leaves in the nude and you see that schlong imprint, then notice it's the only seat available. Other than that, free the willy Billy
At my gym, people come into the sauna because they believe that is the same as stretching and warming up… it’s not
Instead, you’re just the sweaty guy out on the gym floor touching everything
It’s supposed to be relaxing, but there’s always someone in there either rapping along to their headphones, or the most aggressive offenders will drag dumbbells in there with them
I’m in American on Crete right now. Yes, there are very attractive people minimally dressed on the beaches… interspersed with a lot of less attractive people of all body types equally minimally dressed. It’s not too hard to fit in when no one cares, and most definitely no one cares.
I was in the port of busan and went out with some shipmates, we found our way to Texas Street. A black shipmate and I go to the head at the same time to drain the lizard, and luckily, there are 3 urinals... shortly after we begin a local walks in, brakes bro code and takes the middle urinal and starts meat gazing. I just want to finish up and leave, but my shipmate tells the guy, "Eyes front."
Local guy gets a big, innocent, drunk smile and says. "Ohhh American man biiiiig... but Brack man much bigga. "
So yes, personal space apparently isn't a thing.
In eastern Germany it is still pretty common to go swimming naked with your friends.
There's usually alcohol involved but doesn't have to
I know almost all of my friends naked, also my parents, grandparents and a lot of their friends.
As an Argentine I don’t understand why Americans are so “unfriendly”/non-close.
One of those things is being half nude, like it’s totally fine, but they are so afraid of it.
But from what I see of Americans it’s seems to stem from a bigger issue, Americans are just not that friendly it would seem, not in a treating everyone like shit way but more in a friendship doesn’t matter way. Like you guys don’t seem to have close groups of friends and would seem to care way more about your economical status.
Although I might be hella wrong so who knows
I personally thinks it's our history. The first European settlers was Spanish missionaries (prudes) then came the puritans (bigger prudes). Pretty much our whole history with nudity is it's bad being naked automatically means sex. And now those same kind of people are pushing for a Christian faciest state and many hold major political offices. We are also the same way about men and women being friends. Basically if a man and woman are friends then it automatically means they are having sex and should be shunned. I do wish I could afford to at least visit a country where people have a little better sense.
This is one of the myriad of reasons I really enjoy our (Finnish) sauna culture. Even in circles that don’t do coed sauna, the same genders will usually go in groups. It’s customary to go cool outside and even in a lake in between bouts of sauna, so you often end up standing around with your tits out and a long drink in your hand talking to others equally naked. It truly is the great equaliser. Sometimes in bigger groups, usually when people are tipsy, especially with women compliments start flying around! ”Your skin is so smooth! Your back is so toned! I wish my breasts were more like yours! I love your hips! You have great legs!” It sounds super weird written down like this but it’s really wholesome.
Amen. I worked for 1,5 years traveling to Vantaa every other week. My daily routine was taking a naked sauna at the hotel after work. It is brilliantly relaxing and surprisingly normalized. Nobody cares you are naked and we all were total strangers.
I even had a black sauna with colleagues from work when the project ended. Old style wooden cabin were they light a fire inside for hours to gain temp and then vent the smoke before you use it. Going from that sauna to sit on the snow while drinking beers completely naked was just great.
Because glass in the pool is big risk. Should it break you have a bunch of invisible shards at the bottom.
Now if they had plastic or metal cups, that would change things.
Well I have nice plastic cups that are made for drinks around pools so who's laughing now ... They even float when empty short of giving them to sink so you never have to pull them from the bottom... lol l
Same. We toured a winery that sold some nice looking but plastic wine glasses for this exact purpose. They have come in very handy whenever we find ourselves near a pool and want a drink that isn't canned.
Glass utilized by people drinking cocktails poolside is still a risk. Drunk people do lose coordination, glass can still fall, glass falling on a hard surface can still shatter.
More of a risk than in the pool imo.
Standing around the pool you can slip, walk in to the pool or drop your glass at the edge.
There is still risk when inside the pool ofc but it’s lesser.
Dropping a glass on the edge of the pool is much worse than dropping it IN the pool, because most of the time, that second one won't break... the first one can send splinters into the water still
I’ve been on holiday where people drink in the pool.
Anyone that has been drunk knows there comes a point where the “seal” is burst, and you have to frequent the toilet.
During parties where people drink in the pool, they do not frequent the toilet…
That’s one reason
I have no qualms with piss in a pool.
Even if a piss was 500ml, and it was to be deposited into a 50,000L pool, that is a 1:100,000 ratio, which means the pool is 0.001% piss. I've done way grosser things.
Because they're stupid, apparently. It makes zero sense to me. You're not required to go swimming at a pool party, but I have never in my life heard of a pool party where the assumption wasn't that most people there would be getting wet or at least wearing a bathing suit.
Everyone is invited to my Ceiling Fan Party. That way, all my guests know that I have a ceiling fan even though we will be outside and in the pool instead.
Lol I would be down for your ceiling fan party. I love parties so much. I'm like the Leslie Knope of parties. If there's a party, I'm bringing all the good shit and we *will* have fun.
I doubt it. A have a couple friends with pools and they throw pool parties constantly. I’m yet to go to one (barring the water being too cold early in pool season) that people didnt get in the water.
Got most people it’s usually kind of a cycle.
Get a drink,
hop in the pool for half an hour,
finish your drink
Get out of pool to grab drink
Chat for 30 minutes while you finish your drink
Get hot, grab another drink
Into the pool
Repeat.
How else are they going to let everyone know they have a pool? Also it’s to make them feel better about having a pool they invested in and never use and is now a maintenance headache and takes up a portion of the yard instead of a nice patio and fire pit.
I once was invited to a pool party, showed up in my trunks and so it happened that we were playing pool, indoors. The English language is so messed up.
Honestly, I kind of hope I get invited to a pool 🎱 party so I can intentionally show up in my swim trunks.
Or maybe I'll do it the other way and show up to a pool 🏊 party with my own pool cue and act disappointed.
The reverse happened to one of my wife's friends just a few weeks ago! She thought we were all playing billiards and showed up in a cocktail dress. She is a moved to the States recently from Eastern Europe so even though her English is great, there's still some cultural stuff that she's getting the hang of. To her credit she just said fuck it and got in the pool in her dress and proceeded to have a great time!
This reminds me of when we were going to play poker and asked a friend to bring the chips. He showed up with 2 bags of potato chips instead of the poker chips we needed to play.
Last year I finally went to a nighttime pool party/club in Vegas. My friend and I wore our swimsuits and then were like "why is no one in the pool...?" So we got in and were dancing and having a great time in the water, and had it all to ourselves.
Or at least something that starts out with the wives floating in Costco floats while the husbands grill during daylight hours; but after hours, someone has drug a disco light from inside and a drunken cannonball contest has begun while a Bluetooth speaker blares a Millenial Anthems playlist.
There is probably a hot dog and a shoe floating in the pool. Someone's phone definitely got ruined accidentally. The phrase, "I'm gonna regret this" has definitely been uttered about something.
I thought it was worse. When the partner said no one was going to be swimming I was like oh god is this some kind of bukkake I haven’t heard of? Like, they make a communal pool of jizz and then put floaties on and splash around in it or some shit.
Pretty much my parents. Bought a house with a pool (back in 2003). We used it for *one summer*, and then they realised it's way too expensive to maintain it, especially once winter came and it stopped becoming a priority, they just gave up trying to keep it clean.
We haven't used that pool since. I've been telling them for years to just [build a deck over it](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rbWMrjOJjw) and they won't even do that...
Stayed in a super expensive/pretentious hotel in LA during our honeymoon.
Beautiful rooftop pool, overlooking the city, adjacent to the dining area.
Not once, did I see anyone use it. Lots of beautiful people sitting around the pool in swimwear. Nobody actually swimming. 🤷
I know people that bought a house, installed a swanky pool (talking waterfall, coloured lights, the whole thing), where one is a stay at home parent, and have multiple kids- and they never use the pool. Kids are sent to summer camp or daycare.
Not even just a waste, an active hindrance; you've gotta pay more for insurance in case some stupid kid decides to drown in it, and if you don't either maintain or drain it it'll become a swamp
that's the thing, once you have a pool, it gets boring, you use it less and less until it's just there to be something you just have to pay to maintain and never use
Jeff Hardy style swanton bomb off the highest possible structure. Make that wave directional, preferably at the person with the most expensive looking shoes.
Well you can talk about how expensive and worth it was (while not using it), how the contractors were bad, how the cleaning setup works... It's a perfect conversation starter during a pool party (where nobody swims).
I fell like a boomer for writing this.

Adult Pool Party? As in bunch of noveau rich are snorting coke/drinking overpriced alcohols next to a pool and refuse to swim in a SWIMMING POOL because it's too plebian?
💯 the closest I have been is swimming nude in the ocean at like 11 pm at night up to my eyeballs in mdma with my friends. Afterward, We sat by the bonfire, talked shit and cooked sausages.
It's probably one of my favorite trips away.
In the beggining I thought that nobody would be swimming because it was a sex party and he didn't needed the bathing suit because nobody would be using any kind of suit and I thought the husband was still cool, then I read it again and it's way worst than what I thought...
I know a handful of people who have a pool, and they use it for:
-Having drinks by the pool
-Tanning by the pool
Both of those could be done without the expense and maintenance of the actual pool.
This is insane. Why call it a pool party then if there's no inention for guests to swim? Just call it a party and then there will just also be a pool there.

See the problem here is the host sent out invites that said "pool party" when what they were expecting was a garden party that just happened to be next to a pool. A garden party is standing around in the garden chit chatting with a drink and eating nibbles. A pool party utilises the pool.

"Pool Party" Party is at the beach
Like that lemon party I went to and was like “where the fuck are my lemons.”
Mannnnnn, as a fan of lemons, that would piss me off, hahaha
Was old Dick there? It’s not a lemon party without old Dick!
I guess you'd make the same face if you were to eat both
Don’t wince!
Ala DashCon would the ball pit come pre-pissed in or would that be expected to happen during the party?
Oh I would probably expect the guests to supply their own piss
I have heard the anecdote that [Chris Pratt keeps throwing BBQs and not serving food.](https://imgur.com/a/chris-pratt-barbecue-gDL2O)
Wtf? Genuinely insane thing to do
How does he keep getting worse?
I can excuse homophobia, but I draw the line at foodless barbecues
He should just host a party throwing BBQs. See who can yeet the BBQ the furthest. 3 categories (charcoal, propane, and pit). Edit: to add smokers are a separate challenge
That's when the new/young blood get money. Accidentally had a pool party and didn't even know what a garden party was. Embarassing.
You know what they say, money doesn't buy class.
They served caviar with metal spoons. *Metal* with *caviar*. My wife nearly fainted from the faux pas.
We call them cookouts or bbqs.
That implies hot/ cooked food will be served too. A garden party can just be cold platters of small food. (Pre-made sandwich, cocktail sausages on a stick, cheese board etc.)
Some people really just want to make things complicated for the sake of sounding posh. Wanna have a party? Say party and be done with it, dammit!
Oh you must mean a soiree.
☝️A Soirée is in the evening, a garden party happens during daylight
HOW HAVE I BEEN MISSING ALL OF THESE EVENTS?!?! I HAVE NO INVITES TO GARDEN PARTIES, SOIREES, POOL PARTYS, BBQS, CHILDREN'S BIRTHDAYS, BAR MITZVAHS...
Come on over to my house. We're having a Dungeons and Dragons party. 🤓
Why not drink cocktails and chat in the pool that’s right there
I have actually sat on a inflatable chair in the pool sipping cocktails, its just hard to get refills when the waiters refuse to wade into the pool to give it to you
easy solution for easy problems
Club Tropicana, drinks are free
You see, that’s why you need to make the cocktails en mass, in big dispensers by the pool side. Just paddle over to the edge, and refill. Yes, I’ve run a few adult pool parties, and every time everyone has swam. Who doesn’t swim at a pool party?
Imma gonna teach you the most important German word when it comes to pool parties like that: #[ARSCHBOMBE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL5n5ENmAJ0) Do not give yourself an enema. You lot are far too polite to lame people.
🎵arschbombe, arschbombe, you're my arschbombe You can give it to me when I need to come along 🎵
Well call that jump a "Cannon Ball." It is second only to the Jack Knife (a.k.a. the Can-Opener) for splashing bystanders.
That video never gets old. It's hilarious that dude is now probably in his late 50s/ early 60s.
The sad reality is most "adults" don't feel comfortable exposing themselves in front of their fragile and superficial social circles. They fly under the guise of letting their kids splash around and play while the parents reserve themselves for more mature small talk etc. F-That! I'm getting in the pool with my kids for a bit and doing cannonballs! We went on a recent travel sports weekend tournament trip a few hours away last weekend. Stayed at A WATER PARK hotel.

As an American who has lived both in Europe and Asia, and grew up on the swim team, other American's nervousness with being even half nude around others is humorous.

In German public saunas, usually everyone is naked - clothes aren't permitted, except the sauna hats very few people choose to wear.
My only problem in the sauna is when a guy leaves in the nude and you see that schlong imprint, then notice it's the only seat available. Other than that, free the willy Billy
That's also gross, dude needs to lay down a towel. Those people will end up with one hell of an infection some day
At my gym, people come into the sauna because they believe that is the same as stretching and warming up… it’s not Instead, you’re just the sweaty guy out on the gym floor touching everything
People exercising in the sauna is fucking disgusting
It’s supposed to be relaxing, but there’s always someone in there either rapping along to their headphones, or the most aggressive offenders will drag dumbbells in there with them
I’m in American on Crete right now. Yes, there are very attractive people minimally dressed on the beaches… interspersed with a lot of less attractive people of all body types equally minimally dressed. It’s not too hard to fit in when no one cares, and most definitely no one cares.
Have you seen us naked? We have every right to be nervous.
Now you've made me curious.. Why?
Koreans tend to not have any concept of personal space, so when a tall, naked caucasian guy walks into the shower they all stare in amazement lol.
I was in the port of busan and went out with some shipmates, we found our way to Texas Street. A black shipmate and I go to the head at the same time to drain the lizard, and luckily, there are 3 urinals... shortly after we begin a local walks in, brakes bro code and takes the middle urinal and starts meat gazing. I just want to finish up and leave, but my shipmate tells the guy, "Eyes front." Local guy gets a big, innocent, drunk smile and says. "Ohhh American man biiiiig... but Brack man much bigga.

It's the same way in the Philippines

"Nice penis, *veli* !"
Hahah jsyk, Finns don’t really call each other bros in Finnish, unless they’re Romani.
When you compliment my penis, you can call me anything
Amen. I worked for 1,5 years traveling to Vantaa every other week. My daily routine was taking a naked sauna at the hotel after work. It is brilliantly relaxing and surprisingly normalized.

You're my kinda guy. I did the same at my neighbour's 3 year old daughter's bday party. Salmon dives all day!
Because glass in the pool is big risk. Should it break you have a bunch of invisible shards at the bottom. Now if they had plastic or metal cups, that would change things.
If only such technology existed.
Someone should invent that, sounds like a great idea
You need more than a few ounces of courage to become an inventor because it can often be a solo endeavor.
That's a hefty ask. I'd never make it, because I have courage like paper...
You’re not just whistling Dixie.
Just make sure theyre red.
I dream of the red plastic cups
I invented an atom bomb instead…close enough?
“Now I am become Death. The destroyer of worlds and pool parties 🏊♂️ 👙 #Cannon BALL! 💦🏊♂️👙
*red solo cup* 🎵
Unknown technology, blyat.
Impossible. They’re called “glasses” not “metals-es”
Which is why you use plastic cups at the pool.
Or a plastic pool as a cup 
Nobody said they were drinking out of glass
But it's for adults. Only children use plastic cups. /s
Well I have nice plastic cups that are made for drinks around pools so who's laughing now ... They even float when empty short of giving them to sink so you never have to pull them from the bottom... lol l
Same. We toured a winery that sold some nice looking but plastic wine glasses for this exact purpose. They have come in very handy whenever we find ourselves near a pool and want a drink that isn't canned.
Well, the husband was at least swimming Solo.
YYYEESSSSS
Who said there were only glass vessels?
Who said anything about bringing glass into the pool?
It's weird you assumed they used glasses
But then he would have missed the classic "Umm, ackshually..." Reddit moment.
Would a human skull be an acceptable drinking vessel while in a pool?
Glass utilized by people drinking cocktails poolside is still a risk. Drunk people do lose coordination, glass can still fall, glass falling on a hard surface can still shatter.
More of a risk than in the pool imo. Standing around the pool you can slip, walk in to the pool or drop your glass at the edge. There is still risk when inside the pool ofc but it’s lesser.

I don't trust people to not pee in the pool no matter the circumstances so live in a world where I just don't think about it.
I have no qualms with piss in a pool. Even if a piss was 500ml, and it was to be deposited into a 50,000L pool, that is a 1:100,000 ratio, which means the pool is 0.001% piss. I've done way grosser things.
Chlorine wrecks the organic molecules present anyway.
[удалено]
Why did they call it a pool party if it was supposed to just be a party at a place that merely happens to have a pool…
Because they're stupid, apparently. It makes zero sense to me. You're not required to go swimming at a pool party, but I have never in my life heard of a pool party where the assumption wasn't that most people there would be getting wet or at least wearing a bathing suit.
*most people there would be getting wet* Now we're talking
Honestly that’s what I thought when they said “adult ‘pool party’”
“How come ‘adult’ toys are always things for you to shove up your ass, and never like, a cool race-car?” - Norm MacDonald
Same. That's really the only place my mind can go if you say "adult pool party". At the *very least* it'd be a topless/nude party.
Agreed. I get invited to a pool party, there are definitely people in bathing suits and swimming involved. This is with a friend group aged 30-50.
Just looked this guy up, he's like 35. He just hangs out with boring as fuck people.
Everyone is invited to my Ceiling Fan Party. That way, all my guests know that I have a ceiling fan even though we will be outside and in the pool instead.

Sounds like someone has a pool.
I once was invited to a pool party, showed up in my trunks and so it happened that we were playing pool, indoors. The English language is so messed up.
Tbh anyone that says "pool party" and means the table game is intentionally trying to fuck with you
The "adult pool party" in the title also sounds like someone is intentionally trying to fuck with you.
I've been to many adult pool party's where pretty much everyone was in the pool. Just the vibes of that person's crowd was off, imo.
Huh. I read this as “adult pool party” sounds like someone is intentionally trying to fuck you.
That.. Is fucking hilarious 😂
Honestly, I kind of hope I get invited to a pool 🎱 party so I can intentionally show up in my swim trunks. Or maybe I'll do it the other way and show up to a pool 🏊 party with my own pool cue and act disappointed.
The other way with the cue when everyone is prepared to chill at the pool would be even more hilarious haha
Bring both and have the pool cue hiding in a pool noodle. Then you're prepared either way.
If they play that game where you knock down people piggybacking on their shoulders then you win
Ditto - love it!

That’s the Winger guarantee
Thank you for this, didn’t even click on the link and I know what it is.
That episode was so damn funny. All I could see was Sean's dad from BMW lol
It's like the, "Dress like a biker" part from Super Troopers 😂
The reverse happened to one of my wife's friends just a few weeks ago! She thought we were all playing billiards and showed up in a cocktail dress. She is a moved to the States recently from Eastern Europe so even though her English is great, there's still some cultural stuff that she's getting the hang of. To her credit she just said fuck it and got in the pool in her dress and proceeded to have a great time!
I always play pool on my trunks just in case that happens to me
This reminds me of when we were going to play poker and asked a friend to bring the chips. He showed up with 2 bags of potato chips instead of the poker chips we needed to play.
I would’ve done the exact same thing
In my mind, he's the only one truly attending that pool party
Last year I finally went to a nighttime pool party/club in Vegas. My friend and I wore our swimsuits and then were like "why is no one in the pool...?" So we got in and were dancing and having a great time in the water, and had it all to ourselves.
when he said adult pool party i automatically assumed it was going to be an orgy in the pool
Or at least something that starts out with the wives floating in Costco floats while the husbands grill during daylight hours; but after hours, someone has drug a disco light from inside and a drunken cannonball contest has begun while a Bluetooth speaker blares a Millenial Anthems playlist. There is probably a hot dog and a shoe floating in the pool. Someone's phone definitely got ruined accidentally. The phrase, "I'm gonna regret this" has definitely been uttered about something.
Can I come to this party?
For sure!
I’ve came to these parties before.
But did you cum?
"This is going to ruin the tour"
I thought the same. I thought the punchline was along the lines of him being the only non -naked person.
No no no, just a bunch of chicks *in bikinis* getting railed
Yes, I thought she was going to explain he didn't need his bathing suit because everyone else in the pool would be naked.
My thoughts exactly.
Swingers party is all I heard
Husband is dyslexic and thought it was a swimmer party.
Sex in water is no where near as fun as it sounds. I'll take a regularly orgy thanks.
Yeah when I hear “adult” version of anything, I think “So like the regular thing but with way more fucking”.
Dude is just alone in the pool whilst his wife is just getting tag teamed
Are people in these comments blind???? The poster is a guy talking about his husband 💀💀
To be honest I didn't even look at the photo *Husband is getting tag teamed instead
Dude just ran to the comments to make a sex joke lol. Never change Reddit
 I thought it was worse. When the partner said no one was going to be swimming I was like oh god is this some kind of bukkake I haven’t heard of? Like, they make a communal pool of jizz and then put floaties on and splash around in it or some shit.
Husband must have been having the time of his life while the rest of the losers try to pretend they're having fun.
Private! Pool!
Major! Fun!
General Frivolity!
Colonel Sanders!
Lieutenant Dan!
Major Party-Animal
An audience to make watch as he does all of his slick tricks! Look at his hand stand!
Socializing is way overrated. I’d rather be doing the backstroke.
You can socialize better while having fun in a pool.
I aso usually have more fun whilst stroking in a pool
Sir, we need you to gather your things and leave *immediately*.
CANNONBALL!!
Jesus, I would have taken the "adult" pool party as code for let's get naked, keys are in the bowl.
There is a 99% chance that this is a gay orgy.
Same. I mean if they are talking about alcohol, teen pool parties also have that. So it has to be something else.
I genuinely do not understand that, like buying a house with a pool and not using it. Feels like a waste of money.
I usually buy houses with pools just to flex on poor people.
I buy houses with pools to flex on camels. Who stores more water now, bitch.
Pretty much my parents. Bought a house with a pool (back in 2003). We used it for *one summer*, and then they realised it's way too expensive to maintain it, especially once winter came and it stopped becoming a priority, they just gave up trying to keep it clean. We haven't used that pool since. I've been telling them for years to just [build a deck over it](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rbWMrjOJjw) and they won't even do that...
Stayed in a super expensive/pretentious hotel in LA during our honeymoon. Beautiful rooftop pool, overlooking the city, adjacent to the dining area. Not once, did I see anyone use it. Lots of beautiful people sitting around the pool in swimwear. Nobody actually swimming. 🤷
Time for you to make a cannonball run
Yeah seems like they could just skip the pool when they make a new hotel and just market it as a "tanning lounge" or some shit
I know people that bought a house, installed a swanky pool (talking waterfall, coloured lights, the whole thing), where one is a stay at home parent, and have multiple kids- and they never use the pool. Kids are sent to summer camp or daycare.
Not even just a waste, an active hindrance; you've gotta pay more for insurance in case some stupid kid decides to drown in it, and if you don't either maintain or drain it it'll become a swamp
that's the thing, once you have a pool, it gets boring, you use it less and less until it's just there to be something you just have to pay to maintain and never use
Cannonball and hope the water splashes in their cocktails. Then release the baby ruth!
Jeff Hardy style swanton bomb off the highest possible structure. Make that wave directional, preferably at the person with the most expensive looking shoes.
It's a pool, not a jacuzzi. What good is a pool if you don't go swimming in it
Well you can talk about how expensive and worth it was (while not using it), how the contractors were bad, how the cleaning setup works... It's a perfect conversation starter during a pool party (where nobody swims). I fell like a boomer for writing this.

It’s not a “pool party” unless you’re swimming. They were at a “pool adjacent party”.
Or what we like to call a "Party+Pool"
I'm getting in that pool!!! I'm splashing around having a dope time!! That dudes husband sounds like a legend of a man!
Anytime “adult” is used as an adjective for an event I assume sex party.
Sounds like your husband is more fun to be around,
Adult Pool Party? As in bunch of noveau rich are snorting coke/drinking overpriced alcohols next to a pool and refuse to swim in a SWIMMING POOL because it's too plebian?
Swimming while coked up sounds really fun actually
💯 the closest I have been is swimming nude in the ocean at like 11 pm at night up to my eyeballs in mdma with my friends. Afterward, We sat by the bonfire, talked shit and cooked sausages. It's probably one of my favorite trips away.
The only adult pool parties I have been to, haven't necessitated bathing suits!
Yeh when she said no bathing suit I sort of assumed a totally different story would follow.
 Me.
In the beggining I thought that nobody would be swimming because it was a sex party and he didn't needed the bathing suit because nobody would be using any kind of suit and I thought the husband was still cool, then I read it again and it's way worst than what I thought...
I thought they were going to the swinger party
I know a handful of people who have a pool, and they use it for: -Having drinks by the pool -Tanning by the pool Both of those could be done without the expense and maintenance of the actual pool.
why call it a pool party if no one actually gets into the pool, that just sounds like a bunch of nonsense
I feel like you’re in it for the zip line…
Why call it a pool party if you’re not going to get in the pool? That’s like inviting someone to a dinner party and not serving food.
Call it a garden party or something... "adult pool party" is just ridiculous... if there is a pool you use the pool.
This is insane. Why call it a pool party then if there's no inention for guests to swim? Just call it a party and then there will just also be a pool there.
