[Talk Theme] Liven up the drinking party! A roundup of funny questions (21–30)
Things I was glad to have bought this year

Asking about the best things people bought this year is a perfect theme for year-end parties like bonenkai.
From items everyone would want to niche picks that showcase someone’s full-on hobby, you might discover new sides of friends you thought you knew well.
And for anyone who made a regrettable purchase, it could be a source of tips for better options in the same category.
As a conversation topic for parties, this question is highly recommended—especially great for larger groups and sure to get the energy up.
Something I can say only now

Doesn’t everyone have stories that, while not funny at the time, turned into good laughs as the years went by? Tales of student-era romances or rookie mistakes at work—these conversations, which connect across each person’s own genre, can really liven up a drinking party.
That said, some stories still aren’t laughable if they’re ongoing, so choose your material based on the people present and the mood.
On the other hand, talking about something you’ve been carrying alone for a long time can make you feel lighter, so this is a conversation theme I highly recommend trying.

If you had to be told either the date of your own death or the cause of your own death, which would you choose?
It’s a question of whether you want to know when your life will end or how it will end.
If you knew the date of your death, you could plan how to live your life up to that day; if you knew the cause, you could think of ways to prevent it.
It’s the kind of question that can prompt us to reflect on how we live, and it might reveal each person’s life goals and what they fear.
Perhaps the best approach is to value both perspectives and aim for a fulfilling life while staying mindful of accidents and health.
In conclusion
I’ve put together topics that can be taken broadly rather than extreme ones. And I think these are all questions you can use even outside a drinking party, right? I hope you all enjoy some fun conversation time together!
