naw they got some coffee for free here, it's all good

reason to go to wizards game 1: they are playing charlotte and emeka okafor is god

reason 2: possibility that gilbert arenas will score 1,000,000 points like he just got multi-ball on Black Knight pinball game

reason 3: very real possibility of courtside seats for like three buckx

I know nothing of such things.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmmm courtside for basically free is hard to give up. What time is game? We could actually all theoretically go for drinks and TAPAS downtown??? and then you high-tail it over to the game, but this is assuming a 7pm game.

yo matt i asked my wiz-lovin friend to evaluate your statements. his responses are below:

1) emeka okafor had 4 points, 0 rebounds and 0 assists last night
2) gilbert arenas is in the worst slump of his career, but could very well drop 40 on any night
3) courtside seats for $3, no? very good lower level seats for ~$30, sure

thanks for fact-checking my hoops knowledge but:
1. okafor has been kicking ass everywhere this season, he's allowed to suck for one night
2. yeah no doubt
3. was exaggerating for humorous effect, obv target unachieved as usual

I will probably not go to Wizards game, would much rather hang out with DC ILXors. Please advise. I have to work until 4 p.m. tomorrow and then am pretty much good to go (check my DC go-go terminology!)

― Matt Cibula (Formerly, the Haikunym), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:37 (seventeen years ago) link

little known fact: i am incapable of recognizing or understanding humor unless drunk. you should come out tomorrow so you can evaluate the accuracy of that statement.

― 50,000,000 blelvis fans can't be wrong (teenagequiet), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

DUDES though, let's all be cool and stop analyzing the Wizards, we must come to critical consensus re: where for tomorrow. DC people, commence planning!!

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I vote Saturday! Saturday Saturday! I realize that this may make me a dickbag.

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Why not tomorrow? Do you have a hot date or something tomorrow?

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

whatever is cool with all of you, i brought a bunch of 4 hour indian movies on dvd but i'd rather actually see human beings (although, come on, the first shah rukh khan / kajol movie...pretty tempting)

so i have to go set shit up in the booth, will check in in a couple of hours to see what all y'all have decided. as long as i can get there on the metro or on my legs I will attend and make you all happy you live here and not in wisconsin, where it FUCKING SNOWED LAST NIGHT

What about our guests, duder? We're ditching them?

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:45 (seventeen years ago) link

YES!!!

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:46 (seventeen years ago) link

No. I vote Saturday.

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

"Hi dere guests here is your key we have an engagement after work we'll see ya later OK bye now have fun finding a single family home big enough for three dogs and two cats walking distance to Metro in a safe neighborhood for 250K good luck with that bye"

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Srsly why would we have to hang out with them tomorrow?

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Srlsy why would you ditch houseguests like that? We won't see them tonight. You can explain we're ditching them I'll make sure they have fresh towels. And we can both stop clogging u[p the board with dumb boring married person crap

(I'm on the right, obviously.)

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:51 (seventeen years ago) link

It's more being really, really, really sick of the constant up-and-downtime here
That's the whole point of this rewrite stuff, though. It should all be completely shifted over to new server, site and code by turn of the year, I'm thinking.

making the decisions re: OHNOES NOT SPAM are posting borderline racist missives on other threads. SO 2001, ILX, SO 2001.
Is this me, you mean? cos I know I made an anus of myself on the MR thread, but I'm not behind locking unreg.

It is a total fucking pain in the ass trudging about deleting spammy shit, though, when there's much better stuff to be doing with my time.
All the complaints seem to come from people who can't work the registration -- which hasn't changed, at all, from the ILX one.

― stet (stet), Thursday, 30 November 2006 17:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Why don't you guys just bring your houseguests with you?

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:01 (seventeen years ago) link

They're really old (50's?) and would not be any fun, really.

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:02 (seventeen years ago) link

But I'm fine with Friday, I'm just being a pain in the ass. Everyone can just ignore me, it's cool.

― Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Also, stet, IIRC the moderator board was regularly blighted with complaints about the settings + password reset not working properly on "old ILX," so I'm not sure what your point is. But thanks for stopping by and solidifying my decision.

xpost OHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Old ppl no go to beerfest ;_;

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

What we need is more ppl giving input on the day. I could do Saturday if that is easier for everyone.

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Yr welcome. I'm sorry if I had any part in you goin, tho.

― stet (stet), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Nah, dude, no apologies, this has been a decision that had been bantered about between me and a few other people (not all ILXors) for like 2 years now. Maybe it will fail spectacularly!

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:10 (seventeen years ago) link

My vote is still Friday after work. M, we don't have to be late or anything. They have their own agenda, anyway.

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:10 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah friday works best for me because i'm already going to be here. off around 4, as per usual. will be drinking by 4:30 or so, also as per usual. preferred locales?

ps pete was it this weekend or next that you wanted to go try and hit on art chicks?

― 50,000,000 blelvis fans can't be wrong (teenagequiet), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Her boyfriend, Jeremy Frank, wears checkered trousers in deference to his heroes, Wes Anderson and Woody Allen.

^^^^ this guy sucks.

Oh I was reading an article in a newspaper while waiting at the deli about how to keep certain houseplants (some kind of lilly, maybe? Something that is known to be wilty and easy to kill) from wilting with BOOZE, and not just the old wives' tale of vodka. ANY hard liquor worked. The scientist's name who just sat there pouring all manner of shots into houseplants? Brian Miller!!

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:40 (seventeen years ago) link

No way! I glanced at that article (it was about paperwhites and amaryllisessss [amarillisi?]) but failed to catch the name of the booze botanist.

Matt "the usual" refers to the Big Hunt, which is at the Dupont metro (1345 Connecticut, near the south metro exit). I can be there five-fivethirtyish.

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:44 (seventeen years ago) link

But maybe we should go somewhere, you know, different?

― quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:45 (seventeen years ago) link

JALEO except that place always crowded every time I go by it now :(

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Last time I was at Big Hunt I called one of the barbacks a dick and he accused me of being uncivil and I said if he was being civil himself he wouldn't get called a dick. Then we left cos it was hella late.

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:47 (seventeen years ago) link

ah, tuesday

Well, listening to my angry friend R.'s problems for an hour cured the Emo. I can't even begin to talk about them for fear of the man.

Laurel, you are getting one of my black balls for that outburst.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:55 (seventeen years ago) link

I like the big hunt.

Ed that sounds dirty.
