When is a party not a party

I received an email from Microsoft with the subject heading "5 easy steps to turn your holiday party into a PowerPoint party." And the only appropriate response is, "WHAT?", said in the Marianno style, where what is legit a 4-letter word. 

I don't want to undersell PowerPoint. It is pretty handy. But in what version of reality is there a group of people planning a party--work, family, neighborhood, I don't know--saying, "This party is okay. But what would REALLY make it the party of all parties is a PowerPoint." And throw out party of all parties. I don't think there is even anyone saying, "A PowerPoint would add a nice element to our party." Yet, Microsoft sells it as making your party extraordinary. 

And yes, it would definitely make your party unusual or remarkable (see definition of 'extraordinary'), but I think not in the way you want. 

But a PowerPoint party isn't just a party with a PowerPoint. It's like a Pampered Chef party, but with tech. Per my email, "At a PowerPoint party, each person creates and shares their unique presentation to the group. Add a theme or keep it random. Then let your friends and family show off their creativity at this event they won’t soon forget."

If you are really my friend, if you really care about me, do me a favor: never invite me to this event. And I will do the same. Happy holidays.
