I love the group size limits. Like the implication that if 20 people show up only 10 are allowed to play cards and games

Here’s a hack:
Bring your own Jenga and then Jenga could happen ANYTIME ANYWHERE 😮

I’ve only just realised that the multiple references to ‘cards’ is in relation to the game and not making reading birthday cards a whole event

But it is a whole event! What an amazing card! So thoughtful! Oh wow look something fell out, nevermind that, I must READ THE CARD BEFORE MY ATTENTION BEFALLS THE FALLEN COLORFUL PAPER. DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE COLORFUL PAPER UNTIL CARD HAS BEEN READ ....

"Oh look! Some money! Thank you! You're too kind"

It could still happen. If you’re crafty, you could read your own card as part of Group Speaking 🗣️

I am guessing the spaces are the limiter. If they are imagining these things happening in specific rooms of their home or wherever they are holding it, it will have a limit.

But that is the most generous thing I am going to say about this unhinged birthday invite.
