I don't understand the distinction you are making: two couples (4 people) meeting at a restaurant is, to me, equally social as one couple going to another couple's house to eat dinner.

Four people in a public space interacting with the rest of the community is fundamentally different to four people in an isolated silo.

  Having to listen to some drunk two tables over matter away is not desirable community interaction. It’s nice to be able to carry on a conversation somewhere there isn’t a constant din.

      Please stop telling me how I'm supposed to feel. It's dismissive and incredibly rude. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

        With respect, you're making your own feelings clear. I'm not ascribing any emotion to you. However, it is clear you lack the perspective to understand how globally unusual or fundamentally broken your community and your interactions with it are.

        There you go again with insults. Just. STOP.

        I think you should re-read the guidelines and choose a more charitable interpretation of my comments. Any impression of an insult comes from within.
