Dayton Meet up?

March 5, 2009 5:03 AM

If anyone is still talking to me, I'll be in Dayton April 1 and2, and was thinking Meet Up? Any Dayton MeFites out there? Don't know the area at all; I'll be staying in someplace called Beavercreek, but I've got wheels.

What? Why wouldn't we be talking to you?

Anyway, Beavercreek is pretty bleh, but there's some interesting places in/around Dayton that might be good for a meetup.

Now I'm curious!

I'm not talking to you...




...oh, I can't stay away!

I'm guessing nax is referring to the recent occasion where she called out the entirety of AskMe (burn the heretic!)

If there's one thing I've learned about this site it's that you really have to kind of exert yourself to earn any kind of lasting animus (generally a good thing I think). You're not even close to burning your bridges around these parts.

She knows what taters are, but won't tell.

yeah, that wasn't at all bad. If you really want to be notorious you could do a lot worse...
like be a unemployed deadbeat who threatens to beat internet people up in the soda aisle of a Connecticut Shaws.

I want to know what happened to frozen and that jerk almost as much as I want to know what a tater is. Almost.

You should meet up with your mom. It would make her day.

Frozen's BF never showed up at Shaw's, did he?

For some reason dgaicun's comment in that frozen metatalk thread makes me laugh and laugh every time I think of it.

Can someone tell nax I won't be able to make it?

Alvy says he'll be there and drinks are on him.

Can someone tell ND¢ that I'm not talking to him now, too?

I don't live in Dayton anymore, but I still visit there most weekends. If there's ever a Dayton meet up on a Saturday, I might try to make it.

I grew up in Dayton! Beavercreek is a one-story suburban abyss, btw, so schedule something in the Oregon district, which is really lovely if about 5 blocks long. Thai 9 has lots of room for big parties.

Nax, you and the mr. are welcome anytime at a NYC meetup!

That statement ultimately proves exactly how lazy meatbomb is, he just couldn't get the job done.
