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 ;_;

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!

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

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!!

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

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

It seems like only yesterday.

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.

Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Ed that sounds dirty.

Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:58 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost There must be other places to consider, in Dupont.

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 18:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Why did the Childe Harolde fall off the map?

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:00 (seventeen years ago) link

not really...

m00kiepr00f (m00kiepr00f), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Outburst? I am so un-outbursty today I'm practically comatose.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:00 (seventeen years ago) link

I like the Bug Hunt

Pluses for Big Hunt:
1) Good beer selection at a reasonable price
2) DELICIOUS GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH???! WHO KNEW SUCH A THING COULD BE BROUGHT TO A NEW LEVEL
3) Good hummous and spinich/artichoke dip
4) Central location that appears to be fairly easy for most people to occur upon
5) number of turbos and capitools at a minimum generally
6) pete would have sex with all of these waitresses
7) internet jukebox

xposts we could do childe harold, I think they actually moved coke dealer night to Saturday!
Minuses for Big Hunt:
1) that retard barback who refuses to let people use the bathrooms if he is in the general area
2) internet jukebox

Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:01 (seventeen years ago) link

whoa how the hell did the xpost thing get in between those two??

Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:02 (seventeen years ago) link

We should do something completely batshit insane and unheard of, like 51st State on a non-football day, or a hotel bar with $15 martinis.

big hunt occurs

TOM. BOT. (trm), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:05 (seventeen years ago) link

i miss the bug hunt

m00kiepr00f (m00kiepr00f), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:05 (seventeen years ago) link

My only issues with Bug Hunt are:

1) Can get v. loud
2) Not so comfy if there are more than like 4 ppl involved, which I appears to be the case for tomorrow night.

OK it is not as convenient for me but I'll throw it out there anyway: Saloon?

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:15 (seventeen years ago) link

'Cause I kind of love that place.

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:15 (seventeen years ago) link

I could do with a $15 martini.

Gosh, this is easier in New York: someone says "The W------ W---?" and someone else says, "Dude" and you're on.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:17 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, I'm in, at last. I did not realize how much I was missing on these DC threads by having my images turned off!

Re, happy hours. Friday or Saturday doesn't really make a difference for me, nor does the place. I'm easy like that.

Re, new board. I would follow, though my goal is to post less on the internets, not more.

PS: Do I really have to show a real e-mail here? How much longer till this intermediary board is over?

Yeah, we're sorta lame like that here.

So guys, the Big Hunt, tomorrow, after work?

Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Mary I had the same real e-mail problem--just go back to your settings, make your real e-mail your "private" (optional) e-mail, and put in fake e-mail in the box above the private one. It will re-set your password but will send it to private e-mail, so it doesn't matter that you entered a fake one in the top box.

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:20 (seventeen years ago) link

We only go to one bar, though. For the most part.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Laurel, that is a dirty lie, at least back in the day when I was trying to get people together. Your weekly Monday night drinking club does NOT count as we have the same type of thing. The thing is that there is a new person and we are trying to impress, not bring to old dingy. But, I think old dingy it is :D

xpost SEE?

Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:21 (seventeen years ago) link

laurel, what bar(s)? i need bars.

m00kiepr00f (m00kiepr00f), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks, Q, I'm here again. My name is no longer Mary though. We have a Monday night drinking club? (This time the password came right away; the other time it came after a few hours.)

Matilda Wormwood (Mary ), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Why don't I know about this supposed Monday night drinking club?

quincie (quincie), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll email ya, Mooks.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:28 (seventeen years ago) link

the bar for the MNDC in NYC totally puts the place chicago goes for thirsty thursday's to shame.

otto midnight (otto midnight), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:29 (seventeen years ago) link

1. Laurel lives in NYC, boozies.
2. NYC has a weekly Monday drinking club.
3. Y'all don't live in NYC

Ergo, etc.

Mr. Que (Party with me Punker), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Your weekly Monday night drinking club does NOT count as we have the same type of thing.

type of thing, drinking club is therefore not necc on monday?

Matilda Wormwood (Mary ), Thursday, 30 November 2006 19:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I thought everyone was aware that about 80% of Fridays feature the Big Hunt
