This is The Bible quote in Isaiah 22:13, "let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we shall die", taken to its Logical Extreme. Soldiers and civilians during war will try to have as much fun as they can during their downtime to block out the horrors of war, to escape the violence, and recapture the feeling of peacetime. But then there are those who take it to a whole other level: the bombardier who turns up with a hangover, the stoned tank commander, aristocrats trying to deny a war is even happening... This one's for the characters who party to keep their upper lip stiff and morale high and the others, on the dark side of the trope, trying to block out the reality of war altogether. Glamorous Wartime Singer often features, as does Military Moonshiner. Unlike While Rome Burns, this is for characters who are on the receiving end of war and can be a positive way for characters to keep their sanity. This can be emphasized by the partiers being called to duty during the hijinks, and they instantly snap into solid professionalism for the tasks ahead. Compare Go-Karting with Bowser for when both sides screw the war and party together, and Holiday Ceasefire if a holiday makes the hostilities take a halt. See Apocalypse Anarchy and Screw the Rules, It's the Apocalypse! for a similar reaction to The End of the World as We Know It. |

In a meta-example for Star Trek Online, the summer event and winter event, parties for the players respectively held on Risa and in a Q-created demiplane, go on regardless of what's going on in the universe at large. This drew complaints against 2015's summer event, given that at the time the entire Alpha and Beta Quadrants were supposedly swept up in a massive war against the Iconians that they were losing badly. | |

Features in Apocalypse Now, with Willard reflecting that "(Charlie's) idea of great R&R was cold rice and a little rat meat." during a USO show. Also the scene in the Director's Cut where the main characters trade their fuel for some private time with Playboy models. The extraordinarily famous scene when Col. Kilgore orders his men to take a village so that they can partake of its surfing beach. Some are even seen out on longboards before the battle has even concluded. |

Happens a lot to Swadia in Mount & Blade. Royal feasts are a mechanism for improving morale and loyalty among generals, and since Swadia is usually at war with somebody due to its position on the map (whether it wants to be or not), King Harlaus is constantly throwing them. It can get quite hilarious if multiple nations are in on Curb Stomping them. | |

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII has a city devoted to directing this trope at the apocalypse. Yusnaan is a city of revelry, devoted to spending ageless lives in a dying world joyfully. By the time the game begins, there are thirteen days, tops, until the world begins to fall apart, and the opening fight scene FMV has Lightning walking in on a gala. | |

X-Wing Rogue Squadron: Baron Soontir Fel, the best pilot in the Empire since Vader died, defected for a long and complicated list of reasons, including the fact that he and his command had been assigned to the utterly incompetent Admiral Lon Isoto. Isoto tried to make Fel cheat on his wife with a servant girl, had no grasp of tactics and no sense of what a victory was, and just threw orgies around. Fel knew that his command had been assigned there for the express purpose of being killed by the Rebels as part of one of Isard's schemes. With that in mind, he let his pilots attend and enjoy themselves since it would be inhuman to deny them a last pleasure. Fortunately for them, Isoto's assassination at Isard's order meant that they didn't all get killed; if Fel hadn't gotten captured in that battle, he might have put off defecting a little longer. | |

Soon after they dig out the dead Marston's stash of cocaine, put on the phonograph, and get blitzed out of their gourds as they dance, laugh over the accusations on the record, and try to party away the mortal terror of being trapped on an island to be murdered one-by-one. | |

In 1776, George Washington's "New Brunswick" dispatch details his soldiers' drunken, disorderly, whoring antics while camped in the New Jersey town. In addition to being Truth in Television, it leads to some of the funniest exchanges in the play. It's the sarcastic comment that they're going "for the whoring and the drinking" that gets Ben Franklin to go with John Adams and Samuel Chase to go inspect the army! |

Fallout 3: Dukov. The post-apocalyptic ruins of Washington are the site of an epic Stalingrad-esque battle between the Brotherhood of Steel, super mutants, and the Talon Company (later during the plot, the Enclave also throws their hat into the ring). And the retired Russian mercenary just sits in what once was a luxurious hotel, drinks to oblivion, and boinks whores. | |

Paradise Road: The movie opens with the fall of Singapore in WW2 and everyone is having a giant party, despite the encroaching Japanese invasion force. At one point a shell bursts right outside the hotel they are all partying in, and the waitstaff's response is to try and protect the elaborate champagne fountains and stop fleeing people stealing drinks. Both service personnel and civilians are present here, and nobody seems to be taking the threat of invasion seriously. Sadly this is very much based in reality. | |

Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers, as well. Eulmore takes a leaf out of Yusnaan's book and encourages people from far and wide to come to "paradise" to live what remains of their days free of worries... at least in theory. The "free" citizens of Eulmore certainly enjoy the promised ease, but the bonded citizens must actively struggle to satisfy their masters, lest they be eaten by sin eaters or thrown into the waters of the Tempest, and Eulmore does also have an active military trying to coerce the rest of Norvrandt to accept Eulmoran rule. | |

In World of Warcraft in the Eversong Woods zone, blood elves are trying to hold back the rampaging undead from overrunning their city. Meanwhile, Lord Saltheril is... holding a party, with guests giggling about going to watch the fighting later on. Needless to say, the elves doing the actual fighting are pissed at him. The guests - and Saltheril himself - are intensely creepy. There you are, a stone's throw from the front and closer to the insane looters, and they're...giggling and partying like nothing's wrong. It serves as a very effective symbol of the blood elves' lifestyle, really. The various holidays observed by the Horde and Alliance throughout the year. Both sides (for the most part) take some time off slaying each other and participate in the festivities. The cold war thaws slightly. It also has some basis in real life too. During the American Civil War during the first few battles, civilians on both sides were so excited about the action that they would have picnics on the hillside and watch the fighting. |

In the Torchwood episode "Captain Jack Harkness", Jack and Tosh get sent back in time to 1941 and end up in a dance hall during a German air raid. While the bombs do cause the party to temporarily relocate to the bomb shelter, the Glamorous Wartime Singer continues entertaining, and the party resumes upstairs once they get the all-clear. Most attendees treat it as a normal occurrence and no reason to stop having fun, but others are clearly having issues with the whole mortality thing and are using the party as a cover for their fears. | |

In Space Mutiny, the crew of the colony ship Southern Sun decide to celebrate the main character's promotion with a party while in the middle of a mutiny against the ship's commanders. Indeed, the reason that the protagonist was promoted in the first place was to replace the chief of security, who's leading said uprising. Apparently arresting him and his 200 armed conspirators is not a priority. Later, after the ship defeats some Space Pirates, the film immediately cuts to a repeat of the previous partying scene, while the mutiny is still happening. | |

Steven Universe: The Movie: The villain and her Doomsday Device arrive at Beach City the same day that a Sadie Killer and the Suspects concert is scheduled, so Greg drops the cover charge and the city uses the warehouse they're performing in as a shelter. Steven complains that Greg has more important things to do than manage the band right now, but realizes that a rock concert may be a good place to help Pearl snap out of her Identity Amnesia by reminding her of her rebellious side. This works. | |

Das Boot: The first scenes involve the crews from a pair of submarines in the Wolf Pack having a party the night before going back to the Atlantic. Later aboard the submarine, the crew is enjoying themselves after a stressful day. We see one crew member dancing like some sort of tropical girl while the rest of the crew shouted out catcalls and wolf whistles.note The writer of the novel, Lothar-Günther Buchheim, was incensed when he first saw that scene. He said that no U-boat crew would ever behave in such a way. |

In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine there was a 'screw the War, we're playing baseball' episode and a 'screw the War, we're fighting gangsters in the holosuite' episode. The Baseball Episode was an attempt to invoke this trope, as the station was playing host to a number of Federation ships and their crews who'd been rotated away from the frontline of the Dominion War and who badly needed to blow off some steam in a way that didn't involve Bar Brawls or other unfortunate drunken shenanigans. The holodeck episode didn't really have an in-universe justification (beyond "we have nothing better to do after work today"), but served as a badly-needed Breather Episode for the audience, coming as it did in the middle of the Darkest Hour of the show to date. | |

The good version in the X-Wing Series novels pops up more than once, with the Wraiths taking the time to raise their morale. Runt organized a dance in Iron Fist. Solo Command had the "rebellion of anonymity" on the Mon Remonda; for twenty-four hours, rank became meaningless when off duty and people did a lot of things, including playing sabbac with man-who-looks-like-Commander-Antilles and man-who-looks-like-General-Solo, but can't be, since Antilles and Solo both wore rank insignia, and these people didn't. There's mention of astromech races and the woman who looked like Rogue Squadron's chief mechanic winning a week's pay from the man who looked like Solo's second in command. | |

Downfall (2004): Featured when Eva Braun engineers vast parties to distract Adolf Hitler and their friends to avoid the reality of Germany's Defeat. Eva's one attempt at a party above ground near the very end of the war is stopped real quick as a Soviet artillery shell hits too close and blasts dust everywhere. There are additional parties shown, which get progressively bigger and out-of-control as the film goes on. When General Weidling arrives to report to Hitler, only Krebs and Burgdorf are drinking. When Hitler gets ready to kill himself, practically every soldier and staff member has broken out the booze. The building Fegelein is hiding in has lots of drunken Germans and topless women. Fegelein's room also contains several lines of coke on a dresser. Another scene features some soldiers gleefully abandoning their positions with a woman on one arm, and bottle of booze on the other, while small arms fire echoes through the streets of Berlin, and artillery blasts buildings into rubble offscreen. |

In The Transformers: The Movie, the Autobots are devastated by the death of Ultra Magnus and theft of the matrix.. But it doesn't dampen the mood at all when they start a dance party with the Junkions just a few minutes later. In their defense, it doesn't hurt that the Junkions thought repairing and resurrecting Ultra Magnus (complete with a new coat of polish) was a grand idea for a party game. |

In Final Fantasy VIII, you can find Balamb Garden students (effectively paramilitary-in-training) eager to play Triple Triad during the Time Compression. The Time Compression is a staging ground for the Garden to launch the Final Battle at Ultimecia. Earlier on, you can ask the researcher Piet to play Triple Triad while panic is spreading like wildfire throughout the Space Station due to Ultimecia's intervention. He even lampshades your ridiculous request. However, the only window of opportunity to obtain Alexander card is either here or during the aforementioned Time Compression. In fact, no matter what awful things might be going on at any given moment, you can almost always find somebody that is willing to play cards. In a non-cards example, Laguna is introduced during the invasion of Timber, when he's supposed to be fighting in the Galbadian invasion. First, he gets lost, then he grabs the military transport vehicle and heads to Deling City to have a drink and hit on Julia. |

Star Trek: This is the lifestyle of your average Klingon. On the eve of battle, sworn enemies often party together and part company saying, "May you die well!" In TNG's "Redemption, Part II" this is used to show Deliberate Values Dissonance between Federation-raised Worf (for whom war is Serious Business) and his Klingon-raised brother Kurn, who has no problem partying on neutral ground with those who were trying to kill them a short time before. In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine there was a 'screw the War, we're playing baseball' episode and a 'screw the War, we're fighting gangsters in the holosuite' episode. The Baseball Episode was an attempt to invoke this trope, as the station was playing host to a number of Federation ships and their crews who'd been rotated away from the frontline of the Dominion War and who badly needed to blow off some steam in a way that didn't involve Bar Brawls or other unfortunate drunken shenanigans.

In the former episode, this is even going on in zero-G. The party grinds to a halt when the supply shortages begin, though. | |

Their "Pre-Bounty Bash" takes place on the first night of a war between God Eneru's forces and the native Shandians, which they spend the next day taking part in en route to the City. | |

Deconstructed in Jarhead. During a Christmas party, Jake Gyllenhaal's character Swoff decides to goof around and get drunk while he's supposed to be on guard duty, so he has another Marine take his place. Said other Marine accidentally burns down a tent, and Swoff suffers the consequences since he was the one who had the guy replace him. This results in a complete mental breakdown. | |

The morale-boosting version pops up in Faith Of The Fallen, sixth book in the Sword of Truth series, where Kahlan arranges a wedding for Verna and Warren while they've got a brief break from their war with the Imperial Order. The wedding ends up being a double morale boost, as about halfway through the festivities reinforcements show up, adding about 100,000 men to the army's ranks. Not that it helps a whole lot, considering the size of the army they're facing. | |

The entirety of Hetalia: Axis Powers applies; it's a giant cast of Nations as People constantly fighting each other and going through endless phases of war and revolution, but regardless, they spend most of their screentime screwing around (figuratively and literally). This is most noticeable in the series' main timeline of World War II. | |

In Mass Effect 3, when the whole galaxy is locked in a desperate war against the Reapers, you can find lots of military personnel living it up on the Citadel. Joker even lampshades it when you find him there. The soldiers at least have the excuse that they're on shore leave, and are living it up before they return to the war. A war asset even comes from improving the power grid at the local nightclub, allowing soldiers to enjoy their leave just a little bit more. James Vega, one of the new squadmates in the same game, is fond of doing this in between missions. When visiting the Citadel, he usually hangs out with other soldiers in the bar, plays cards with the refugees, or if prodded to accept the N7 promotion, is seen getting a tattoo done. Furthermore, the Citadel DLC is essentially all about this (well, its first half is about investigating an assassination attempt on Shepard, but after the Collectors and Reapers, that particular threat is not taken at all seriously and is quickly snarked through). The rest of the DLC is all about Shepard throwing a wild party for the entire main cast of the series and having fun. The shore leave is justified in-story by the Normandy needing some dry-dock time for repairs... and its crew desperately needing some time to relax and blow off steam from the war. |

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II has the town of Thors partying after their liberation at night but before the final Civil War takes place which is at Heimdallr capital the next day. Cold Steel IV also has the night before the final battle that takes place at Mishelam Wonderland where the cast are attending an amusement park shortly before Erebonia goes to war against the rest of Western Zemuria. It's also where Rean learns his final S-Craft in the game and becomes a Divine Blade. |

In Game of Thrones, The first time we see Renly Baratheon in Season 2 is when he's presiding over a melee among his men (and Brienne). This is despite the fact that he has well over 100,000 men and horses (and arms and supplies for all of them) on their way to King's Landing, making their snail's pace journey take even longer. Catelyn Stark makes a scathing backhanded comment towards Renly about it because her own son has been shedding blood in the Riverlands while Renly "plays at war". It's entirely possible that this was why he was dragging his feet; no reason to rush in while the other factions bleed each other white (this was explicit in the books). | |

In the movie Downfall a mixed crowd of Wehrmacht and SS officers is seen partying in a Berlin posh hotel along with nurses and civilian women; the revelers are depicted as possessed with all the frenzy of doomed people: the Red Army was already encroaching the city and many of the partygoers would have either died defending it or be subject to the Russian mass-rape and torture. The episode is partly inspired by an actual event. | |

Then some Nazi Officers and a Czech freedom fighter are thrown into the mix... Even before then, it's played with a bit in that even though Rick's Cafe Americain is a good place to go for a good time, it's also a place where the black market, espionage, and various other schemers go to make contacts, arrange deals and such; even though the party's good, no one's entirely forgotten that there's a war on. |

The First Purge, a prequel to The Purge series, shows that initially, people didn't treat it as a murder holiday. Most people just used the occasion to hold massive block parties and violate noise regulations with impunity, and only a few people actually decided to hurt others. The government, which created the Purge as a Dystopian Edict to Kill the Poor, was so disappointed that they sent death squads into Staten Island to run up the body count, establishing its reputation as a day when people freely killed one another in the streets. | |

Implied and glimpses in Battlestar Galactica (2003). As discipline aboard Galactica starts to break down, we occasionally see the pilots partying and boozing wildly in the pilot common room. Since the pilot roster consists of mixed sexes and Kat accuses Starbuck of sleeping around, they presumably get wilder than just boozing. | |

In China Beach, the characters were at an R&R base, so they often had dances, parties, concerts, and generally had a good time when they weren't too occupied with, ya know, killing Viet Cong or saving lives. This took a turn for the dark several times, as the war sometimes got in the way. Probably the worst incidents were the night that fun-loving lifeguard Boonie and two buddies went to a bar in Saigon and one guy who was going home the next day was killed by a Viet Cong agent with a grenade. Then, in a later season, they were all driving to a dance and a Jeep flipped, Boonie underneath. One of the doctors was forced to amputate Boonie's leg below the knee to save him from drowning as flood waters rose. | |

True Blood's depiction of the Iraq war shows Terry Bellefleur and his fellow Marines doing everything that one shouldn't do in war. They pull into town, seek out the local mosque, enter the mosque, and start doing drugs and drinking because the Iraq War was exactly like the Vietnam War. It's just one big party. It results in a Djinn killing them all off one by one years later. | |

Buffalo Soldiers centers around a bunch of U.S. soldiers in late 1980s West Germany being bored out of their skulls from the lack of combat. They respond by partying all the time and setting up a drug ring, at least until a hard-ass Sergeant arrives to crack them down. | |

In the Dragonlance novel 'Dragons of Spring Dawning', the people of Kalaman celebrate their liberation by the Golden General, Laurana, by holding a day-long celebration in her honor, even though the War of the Lance is still raging. The celebration leads to tragedy, since Laurana, who is already physically exhausted from all the battles she has recently fought in and in a bad emotional state over the apparent loss of her Love Interest Tanis Half-Elven to her Arch-Enemy, Kitiara Uth Matar, drinks heavily at the party and is not allowed to leave the celebration until she is dead on her feet. It is then with Laurana in this weakened, highly suggestible condition that she receives a false message from Kitiara about Tanis. The drunk, exhausted Laurana proves an easy mark for Kitiara's manipulation and ends up getting herself captured after blindly walking straight into a rather Obvious Trap. | |

In Gone with the Wind, Prissy finds Rhett at a party the local prostitutes are giving, either unaware or uncaring that the Yankee soldiers are advancing on Atlanta. | |

Transformers: In the IDW's Transformers comics, Blurr was a racer, one of the best, and had no interest in joining the war on either side and just said that he was gonna keep partying. However, that didn't happen and he joined the Autobots. Even earlier, Marvel's own Transformers comic had Ratchet comment to a group of college students that he liked partying. He then proceeded to show them a more efficient way of roasting hot dogs. Oddly enough, this trait is mostly absent in later incarnations. |

In Istanbul Intrigues by Barry M Rubin, the author describes high-class joints in neutral İstanbul during World War II where spies, diplomats, exiles, etc would go party while they were taking a break from killing each other, plotting against each other, and generally doing unpleasant things to each other. | |
