New Location:
📍 A&O Warsaw
📅 Thursday, September 3
🕖 19:00–00:00
*(No need to arrive exactly at 19:00 - come when you can.)*
🍷 ENTRY CONDITION: At least one purchase at the bar.
You know that moment when you meet someone new and both of you suddenly become the most boring versions of yourselves?
“So, what do you doooo?”
“Whaaaat are your hobbies?”
“Wheeere are you frooom?... And what’s your name again?”
So this event skips the small-talk BS and gets straight to the point.
Hi, I’m Karina, a psychologist who couldn’t decide between therapy and stand-up, so apparently I’m trying to do both now. I’m also Polish and, as you can probably tell by now, I genuinely despise small talk.

Here’s what to expect:
🚩 Speed Friending + Red Flag Game
You’ll rotate between people and pick question cards from two mixed decks - one deeper, one more unhinged. Expect psychological and philosophical questions, red flags, confessions, hot takes, dilemmas, and the occasional question you probably shouldn’t ask a stranger.
Everyone also gets 3 red and 3 green stickers to use during the conversations. Someone gives a deeply questionable answer? Give them a red flag. Surprisingly emotionally healthy? Green flag.
There will be questions like:
• *If you could be a world champion at one completely useless skill, what would it be?*
• *If we called your ex, what would they say your biggest red flag is?*
• *What’s on your playlist that you’re slightly*
*embarrassed to admit you listen to?*
• *If a friend spoke to you the way you talk to yourself in your head, how long would they last?*
🏆 5 + 5 Challenge
Want to win something?
Find 5 different people who match the prompts on your card.
Collect 5 red flags from 5 different people.
The first 3 people to complete both win prizes.
No 25-square Bingo marathon this time. You’re welcome.
This is Speed Friending, not Speed Dating, so yes, couples are welcome.**
However, if you're single and leave with a new situationship, or at least a new enemy - congratulations, we'll consider the event a success.
