I used to think it was Vancouver, but it seems to be common everywhere.
What I do agree with is "The difference seems to be I see that colourful, dramatic, boisterous people get attendance and people who are more reserved and calm do not."
But I also think a lot of it is completely random. Nothing makes me more infuriated than this particular problem and feeling like there's almost nothing I can do to affect it. Sometimes it's time of year, sometimes there are too many things happening at once, but most of the time, it seems like people they think they are being LESS of a jerk by being non-committal than just outright saying "sorry I can't make it". I think a lot of people don't get that being dependable some of the time is a lot better than not being dependable all of the time.
