We told a friend who was always up to an hour late that the event started at 3 instead of the real time of 4. He arrived exactly at 4, just when the rest rolled up too. He was so mad when he found out.
Let me guess, they did the classic projection case of acting like they were mad because they felt "tricked"?
"I was freaking out for an hour when I didn't have to??"
"Are you saying you would have rather spent an hour somewhere else and didn't want to admit it to out faces?"
Seriously though, it is disingenuous to tell them it's an hour early. But it's also rude to repeatedly be an hour late to things. You could argue being late is accidental and lying about a start time is intentional but after everything is said and done, it's kind of a wash, and the point should have been made.
Simply telling them "hey, you're always an hour late, to the point where I'm tempted to tell you things start a hour earlier" may have been a more constructive way to approach things.
