Turd in the punchbowl. The perfect description of the one who ruins the gathering with bad behavior.
Long ago, I read the novel Addie Pray. In it was a line that said "we were as conspicuous as two turds in a punchbowl". That had to be fifty years ago, at least.
Never met anyone else who read this book, but part of it was made into a movie called Paper Moon with Ryan and Tatum O'Neal. The best part of the book, a long con with Addie pretending to be the long-lost grandchild of a wealthy old woman, was left out of the movie.
