For reasons I may not disclose freely on the internet. I am going to celebrate new years eve this year by myself. Does anyone know of ways to solitarily celebrate new years eve?

Note: Englisch is not my first language

Edit: Thank you all so much for the responses. I ended up making it a good movie night, and watched the count down on tv. Along with some retro video games, plus pizza. All things considered it was a night well spent!

If you don’t have a lot of money, you could try masturbating every hour until midnight. Conversely, if you do have a lot of money, you could also try doing that.

If you have a lot of money you can also have someone do it for you. Treat yo self!

That would not be celebrating new years alone, though.

That’s like saying if you order a pizza on NYE then you aren’t celebrating alone because the pizza delivery guy is there.

If they stay below table level, you can pretend they’re a droid

Get yourself a good dinner takeaway, favourite drink, choose a movie you would like to watch, and end it with some retro video games of needed.

Be warned, take out/ delivery on NYE usually takes 1-2 hours longer if you’re in the city. Lots of cancellations too. It might ruin your evening.

Excellent warning. Might want to order very early in the day and reheat if necessary, if it’s good enough/worth it.

Welp, too late now.

Start with a 2013 video game and end with a 2014 video game after midnight.

The game after everything is the way to go, also put some time into figuring out a good movie!

Me: shitty fast food, cheapish beer, and watching the Star Wars 1978 holiday special.

It’s all uphill from here.

Drink heavily, masturbate furiously, and fall asleep in a puddle of your own shame by 9pm.

9PM? Common now, what’s wrong with 9AM?

If you start drinking early enough then you can take a nap and be ready for the evening drinking.
