"Verb" usage, and the consequences thereof.

Okay, people, let's just get one thing strait:
"Party" is not a verb. "Summer" can be used as a verb (i.e. "I am summering in the Hampshires." [I wish.]) As can "holiday." ("I am holidaying in Greece," [lucky!] "with George Clooney." [why does my life suck?]) But "party?" No. Nil. Nine.
Unless you are white trash, you should never use a sentence like, "I partied so hard last night," or "We're gonna be partying all night long."
Ick, may as well just wear a tee-shirt that says "skank." And, in this circumstance, I will not be likely to point at my imaginary "I doubt it" tee, but rather will nod my head in sullen agreement.
