2) The AV Club’s list of the least essen­tial albums of the year some­how mor­phed into a debate over the ori­gin of the phrase “Ain’t no party like a _____ party, ’cause a _____ party don’t stop” (the ori­gin, of course, being P-Funk), some­one sug­gested that it may have been “a Don­ner party.” To which another user responded:

I do believe that a Don­ner party stops. You have to run out of hor’dourves at some point.
