I arrive on time, as that's just the polite thing to do and I'm not fashionable enough for fashionably late. I also like hanging out with people before things get crowded and/or loud, though I enjoy that too.

If I know most everyone there, especially the host, I show up on time.

If I don't know most of the people going, I show up like 30 min late so the social lubricant can start flowing a bit before they get introduced to their new best friend.
