Well noone made a topic on it so I will. Any opinions? Some explain what a hedonist is first. Aren't they lazy types of people who don't beleive in anything.

The Party Party in the RPG is for hedonists, generally they like to live for pleasure and reduce pain in their life.
The Party Party does not believe in any sort of government, since they think that people should be free to enjoy life and do whatever makes a person happy.
The Party Party does not fight Red Infinity, because this can lead to imprisonment or death, both unpleasant things.
Instead they throw parties and try to have as much fun as they can, ignoring the politics of the world.
They also believe in capitalism, since socialism requires too much personal sacrifice and too much effort.
The Party Party is a group of anarcho capitalists who really don't promote their politics, other than to just try to have fun and make people happy.

Pfft, you're all soft. *Sits ramrod straight on a wooden bench and polishes rifle.*
((The difference between hedonism and epicurianism is that a hedonist will try anything to feel good, regardless of cost to personal health. Gorging on super unhealthy foods, using drugs, having orgies, and other such extremes characterize hedonism.))

Epicurean is more logical hedonism, since obviously if your idea of fun is over eating, partying, drugs, whatever, it eventually can cause unpleasantness or suffering in your life.
Epicureanism tries to reduce suffering all together, which would mean some restrictions to short term forms of pleasure if in the long run it causes suffering
