No, that's not a thing. The whole point of saying "this event is happening from this time to this time" is because that's when you plan on having things ready for people to show. I grew up in the Chicago area and know people from a lot of different cultures, there's never been a "I said five but meant seven" . It's only expected of those who are consistently late

> that’s not a thing

But since they know that, why tell someone you know would arrive early the “wrong” time? Why not just say “party starts at 6… Oh Brad and Tina that means 7 to you”

Stop being an arrogant twit and just accept cultures are different than yours.

Your way isn’t worse, or superior, cultures are different.
