NYC Meetup? March 8, 2007 7:12 AM Subscribe
Hey, New Yorkers. I'll be in town soon and noticed you haven't had a meetup in a little while. Anyone interested in something either next weekend (of the 17th) or the early part of the week after?
Yeah, I'm just in town for the first half of spring break to look at apartments/find a job. I won't be in town for good until May.

Ah, OK. How about Saturday the 17th at 5:30 p.m. at our old haunt, Revival? We haven't been there in awhile; I kinda miss it.

I think I will attempt to attend this as my first MeTa meetup. If y'all don't mind.

Shit.
That's maybe not a dealbreaker, but a big problem.

Oh dear, I completely forgot. I imagine any bar is going to be a mob scene. Perhaps we should push back to Sunday, March 18th at 5:30 p.m.?

If you do it Sunday, I'll try to make it there from Jersey.

My attendance is unlikely, but it's not for a lack of likey. Have fun all and al!

Sweet. Hermitosis' house is easier to get to for me! If it is going to be a Sunday, can we do it earlier?

I'm a big fan of afternoon drinking & also going to bed early. Totally punk rock!

Research shows that it's way easier to bring someone home from a party if your house IS the party.
But then I love a challenge. Revival on Sunday it is!

OK, I've e-mailed Matt to change the sidebar date from Saturday to Sunday.

Revival on 15 St or Revival in Harlem? I can make it, either place.

Would y'all welcome a Canadian prairie boy who's visiting the Big Apple for the first time? I'm going to be in NY for a week, and my hotel is not far from there.

Awesome! We'll have visitors! Plus, Revival's just a kick-ass place to be -- very cozy.

Sunday's out for me. I have to go to my nephew's christening. Think of me as you drink.

I'd love to make this my first NYC meetup, but I'm afraid I'll probably still be at Lunacon.

If I'm not knee deep in work, I would love to make it out there. I want to show off my ties, also, but it may be embarrassing with hermitosis doing the same.

Pshaw. Embarassing for everyone else, who, lacking ties, will be as one stripped.
If decide to come, I'll leave my ties at home. After all, if you just wear yours, then we BOTH still get to show off.

If by "ties" you mean "Marmaduke costume" then I certainly won't be left out among the embarrassed.

Hmnnn, Sunday is within reach, though I have a friend visiting from out of town.
onalark: Hey, I've got a great idea for what we should do Sunday.
haplessguest: Yeah, what?
onalark: We should totally go to this bar, Revival, and hang out with a bunch of my make-believe friends from the Internet.
haplessguest: Will there be hot wimmen and beer?
onalark: Hot wimmen!? Of course, tons and tons of hot make-believe Internet wimmen! And I'm pretty sure Revival is a bar.
haplessguest: i'm in.

Dude. We are totally hot. And real. That is why NYC has all the meetups. Duh.

You don't have to tell him that, dame- he knows. He has met me, after all.

It's a strong possibility I may come, it really depends on what drugs I plan on taking that day...

Take the drugs, then come! Or better yet, bring the drugs with you. :)

I would have been able to come, had it not been for the weather of cruelty and woe, preventing me from leaving the sad gray universe of Pittsburgh.
Sigh.
