I know you have been dying to get an answer to this question. But before we answer above question, lets understand the meaning of Party Pooper.
Word type: Noun
Basic meaning: One who declines to participate with enthusiasm, especially in the recreational activities of a group.
Synonyms: killjoy, spoilsport, wet blanket
Colloquialism behind the word - a colloquial expression; characteristic of spoken or written communication that seeks to imitate informal speech i.e. fuss-budget, fusspot.
Now we have the definition – it is time to evaluate the circumstances.
Season – Holiday season with pretty much nothing else to do. No outings are possible as snow storms are frequent. The only sane thing to do is play poker or pool.
History – The Lambs has a history of going out to Pravda’s and Ki’s on his own as well as uncle Sam’s dime. He has often been sighted late nights sleeping in union station dumpsters after drinking wee bit more than he can handle. Last sighting of this creature was two weeks ago when he went out with a large group of accountants and came back stinking like fish! The very next day, he had no recollection of the events of previous day – clearly excessive partying flows in the blood of this creature.
Occasion (s) of allegation –
Day 1: Mr. temporarily-bachelored-currently-on-loosing-spree-dhiman set up a poker game on Monday.
Day 2: Mr. work-from-home-calculating-machine-narula set up a play poker/ pool on Tuesday along with a standing offer to go to Red Lobster or Montanas.
RESULTS FOR BOTH DAYS: The pooper pooped citing a range of reasons including one which sounded like a third grader talking to his Barbie carrying girlfriend – imagine a girly voice saying - “mein nahi khelunga, mene home work karma hai!!”
Based on the definitions and circumstantial evidence it is clear that although Lambs, the creature, is clearly up for partying, but on last two occasions he displayed clear characteristics of a pooper.
So from now till eternity, we the group of 2, rule that Lambs does qualify with flying colors to be named Party Pooper. The honor is befitting as it is glorifying. It is no less magnificent than the once in 25 year coast-to-coast white Christmas in Canada. In line with such marvelous tribute we have to find a crown that does justice to the status of party pooper.
Here is the crown of almighty party pooper:
