First Post, Pretty Cool, Not Blue Enough January 29, 2013 6:03 PM Subscribe
Halfbuckaroo here, got a hit in Key West for the first time in probably 10 years, and I thought it was groovy as hell and I'm reporting. Bad karaoke at AQUA, and a mefite from Chicago shows up, and it was superior. I thought I was alone, and yet. I'm gratified and delighted. small happiness, and utter delight. Thanks MeFi.
Reading this has officially made me the most lost I have ever been on mefi.

Maybe I am from a different generation, but I read that as, "I am in Key West partying my brains out, got a hit of acid for the first time in 10 years and holy friggin cow I end up singing karaoke when I mention this one goes out to my friends on the blue and suddenly there is an actual friend from the blue in the bar. What a coincidence that would not have happened had I not eaten this hit. When you are tripping, it is the small things that seem big and the big things that seem trivial and well all things seem like all things in some way and it all makes me smile with delight. What do you think they will play in the second set? Will there be a long drums --> space? I hope they open with Scarlet --> Fire"

It was only Budweiser, but apparently a sufficient quantity of it will produce acid-like results. Jessamyn's Bud-to-English processor interpreted it exactly, as usual. Luckily, no six-toed cats or chickens were harmed during the production.
The Chicago mefite in question will have to out herself, as the quantity of beer also precluded any name retention.

I'm a skeptic. If you drop acid and you meet someone in a loud karaoke bar who you think is a MeFite it's odds on they were from Reddit. Especially if it turns out they liked Lionel Ritchie or had a picture of a man in a Burberry cap in their wallet.

I have no idea how halfbuckaroo sniffed out my metafilterness. There may a be a pheromone signature unique to mefites, which is elevated in the presence of Karoake, or it may be that I'd unthinkingly used the word 'impinged' in the opening sentence of our conversation.
Regardless, it was the most surprisingly delightful thing to find out that we'd been having a secret meet-up... and that I'd randomly picked the one mefite in the bar, or maybe on the whole island, to stand next to.

Vindicated! The secret word was cromulent.
Can we have 'cromulent' somewhere on the next t-shirt?

I love this. Now I want to go to Key West so that something serendipitous can happen to me too!

Someday it'll be berets. And when that day comes, I will be ready. Oh yes.
And David Mamet will be waiting for you.

When I read hit, my mind went to the scene in Hamlet where he and Laertes are fighting. Hamlet asks for judgement and Osric replies "A hit. A very palpable hit." This line will live on in my brain as my friends loved saying it in hs when smoking up. We also agreed Shakespeare was totally doing acid. How else do you explain a Midsummer's Night Dream?

The real hilarity to me (and apologies if I'm misrepresenting your position on this, Cold Lurkey) is that, I don't know, maybe six months ago, you were just HORRIFIED at karaoke being a regular part of our meetups, and you only agreed to go up and sing because they had XTC in the book. And just look at you now.
The Chicago Cabal* is very powerful and persuasive like that. That's why I'll never leave!
