Mandatory Fun

At the office holiday party near the meat and cheese platter,
After hours work event spent engaged in idle chatter, 
Bored with small talk, pretended to empty my bladder,
Already took three trips to the bathroom,
Two more hours left, can't wait to go home soon,
Need a good excuse,
Alibis and proof, Imma tell the truth,
I'm going home to watch Netflix!

Man! Do I remember Tbilisi days! The office holiday party where you're "the only one" and you have to deal with intoxicated closet bigots. Don't miss that at all.
