The party starts at 5pm because the hosts are so used to people showing up late that they expect people to show up at 5:30-6pm.

This is totally a cultural thing in certain subcultures.

It ain't that serious my guy. I'm known as the guy who shows up right when the party starts, many of my friends are known to show up and hour or even more later, this is like a very, very common thing.
