A 1970s-themed birthday took a dramatic turn when the host booted her boyfriend’s friend for repeatedly commandeering the music, then faced backlash from her own partner.
The Playlist Rebellion
The woman, who had planned the party six months in advance, was stunned when Peter showed up two hours late and immediately began undermining her setup. After greeting him politely, she returned to dancing-only to have Peter haul in a huge speaker and blast his own tracks over her carefully curated disco list.
When she asked her boyfriend to intervene, Peter claimed the guests hated her music and that one of her close friends had begged him to take over. He then cranked his speaker again, prompting the boyfriend to shrug that her speaker would “be dead in 10 minutes anyway.”
The Final Straw
- Peter connected directly to her speaker and hijacked the playlist
- The host snatched his phone mid-song
- She cursed at him and ordered him out of her house
The boyfriend later texted Peter: “Yeah I’m with you. I don’t know what her deal is,” despite telling her he wasn’t taking sides.
