I've been to a few parties like that. The photos always make it seem more exciting than it really is. Plus it's like a faux pas if one is actually interested in and excited by the random, gratuituous nudity and making out and whatnot. Your is supposed to be decidedly ironic and disinterested about all of it or something. Y'know, cool.
Also, notice that the people seem to be almost universally pretty, thin, and probably rich. *yawn* And predictable, and boring, really.
At the really good parties there's none of this picture taking and posing going on, 'cause everyone is either too busy making out, being naked, being drunk and/or high, dancing or otherwise completely and indistractably indisposed to be taking pictures.
