A Pet Peeve

I have a friend who IM'd me yesterday morning and sent along a folder with an invitation and an LM to a party she gave last night. I told her I would come. During the short time I was at the party before RL claimed me, I received two TP offers for other parties with no explanation - no IM saying I'm hosting a party, here's an LM.

It has happened four or five times in the last two days! I find it presumptuous. Why would anyone expect someone they don't hang with regularly to drop everything and TP to a random place or activity without saying "hi!" first? My good friends don't even do it, they'll ask me if I have time to come.

I never take blind TPs unless I've already been contacted earlier and know the TP is coming - or unless it comes from Laleeta or Asthenia :D I find blind TPs presumptuous too.

Even worse are club hosts who friend you solely so they can send you tps. (As an entertainer, I always accept such friendships.) And I surely wish I knew how to send mass tps like that :-)
