No. Never really thought about it as being vulgar. The things that are considered proper, or not, vulgar or not, in the default, are a real part of the problem there.

Nope, all my calendars start on Jan 1, so this is still NYE. And I'm getting paid to be drunk and make out with boys at my favorite club* (oh, and I guess technically to take pictures... ), so I care enough to get decked out & have a great time.

Yes, and the fact that lot of my friends live in different time zone which is -9 hours from my time doesnt really help to prevent staying up until 4am.
