Want to have a crazy successful party? Throw it on a Thursday.

1. Good for you, the host -
Having a party on a Thursday completely eliminates the common host what-if-no-one-comes-because-no-one-likes-me-or-my-party-is-lame fear. A Thursday party is a win-win-win. If no one comes, you can blame it not on your own cool level, but on the fact that people have work the next day. If everyone comes... obvious win - even a double win because not only did you not worry about your coolity level dropping, but your c-levels just shot through the roof! People came to your party on a Thursday. A weekday. A not party day. Oh yeh.   

2. Good for the partyer -
There is no party that preps the ultimate partyer more than the Thursday night party. Their weekends are always booked, and the countdown to craziness starts Thursday night, so why not celebrate that it's almost time to party?! Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve are always waaay more fun than than Christmas Day or New Year's Day because the build-up is ironically more festivitous than the partying on the actual day. You follow? Let Thursday become Friday Eve. Partyers will thank you.

3. Good for the non-partyer -
The non-partyer:  occasionally goes to parties but stands in the corner and leaves early. We all know/are one. What you might not know is that these kids are usually the wittiest kids in the room and vital assets to any corner scene. How do you get the non-partyer to party? Throw your party on a Thursday. To the non-partyer, nothing is more attractive party-wise than a party that will likely be at lower noise level and end early; whether that is actually the case is irrelevant. The point is you got them there. Point.

You win. The partyer wins. The non-partyer wins. Win. Win. Win.
And let all those that are neutral, party on Tuesday (see NR post, 5/22/2012).
