Which "bar?" I know a good one about an estate planner.

and pictures, dammit!

I just got home and I'm about to fall my crazy ass into bed, but all I gotta say is people do some sick shit to a primate...and we have pictures to prove it.

*very mad at my school's scheduling now that I missed it*

you get my e-mail, jon?

Although I enjoyed the latest Spike Lee Joint last night, I was sad to miss the MeetUp.

Instead, I subjected myself to Deja vous filmography, bad facial hair, and enough white people to blind me.

I want some colorful pictures!

*smacks poo into forehead*

A set of jumper cables walk in to a bar.
The bartender says, "I'll serve you, but don't start anything."

A sandwich walks into a bar.
The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve food in here."

Two hydrogen atoms walk in to a bar.
One says, "I think I've lost an electron."
The other says, "Are you sure?"
The first replies, "I'm positive."

I said best bar jokes, tizzie. Like this one:

So this Irishman walks out of a bar.

I stopped by for about 2 hours and chatted with songdog, languagehat, jonmc, andrew raff, chicobangs (tony), witchstone, lizs, choire, cowboy_sally, evanizer, riffola, the michael the, metrocake, goneill, and I'm sure others that I didn't meet.

I know riffola and metrocake and evanizer had cameras.

Sad sad sad I am to have missed it. I'll really have to make the next one to repent.

You were sad, right, until you read my three really hilarious jokes, (above) and then you felt a lot better!

I knew it! My jokes rule!

Yay me, yay me, yayyyy meeeee!!!!

Gen, you forgot to mention that jpoulos was there, no will somebody put up some pics, I now there was some doozies taken and the mothership still seems to be out of commission.

my brain fell out what with all the drinking.

....mumble....

:: looking all pathetic and shit ::

I've got pictures of the monkey. Didn't take too many "people shots," 'cause it seemed like everyone and their pet kangaroo brought cameras. ("Calling Mr. Izer...") Perverted monkey shots, now, *those* I've got. They'll be up later -- gotta do grocery shopping and other domestic thingies. With a hangover. Bleeeeah.

Ah shit, Lupo did go down. One of the reasons I had been seriously considering taking the day off and driving down to surprise a few folks was a sneaking suspicion I had that he was planning the same thing.

Dang it! Next time, alright?

Last night's gathering was tons-o-fun, though a reminder that I need to polish up my social skills. Out here in my hollow log, I've only got the porcupines to talk to, and alls they say is Fee-nee-nee-nee. I'm rusty, and regret not talking to more people.

Still, though, it was a blast, and I was home and in bed by 11 with a cup of warm Postum.

MetaFilter's back up, and riffola has put his pix up on MeTa.

Here's jon doing what we do best. Good job, everyone! Looks like it was a lot of fun.

Hey, commish, KoKo suffered for your sins...but nothe my message on the chalkboard to y'all here..

Bar jokes, huh?

Well, let me tell you about the best fuckup of a bar joke, ever.

You remember doodles, right? You'd make some silly drawing and then ascribe a humorous meaning to it? Like Zappa's cover art for Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch:

Well, my dad was showing around this doodle which he had drawn on a cocktail napkin:

which is, of course, "Two Men Walking Abreast".

A waitress saw it and proceeded to take it all around the bar, asking people to guess what it was. No one got the joke, however, because after they'd given up she would describe it as "Two Guys Taking a Tit for a Walk".

Postum? They still make that stuff?

Postum, damn it!

Goneill was kissing a boy, I see. And not a 9622 boy, either. I am not sure I approve.

Condom-wearing monkeys, now that I approve.

I don't even want to know.

goneill doesn't approve either.

Halitosis.
The Pol Pot of the quickie.

Kissing a boy? goneill, I thought you were riding your bike home!

/me feigns propriety

what is this "propriety," of which you speak earth woman?

Yes, but did anyone get naked? 'cause drinking a lot and gettin' naked is what meeting new people is all about!

Fun pics, all. Poor Koko...

I'm actually not really sure. I think I heard it whizzing by and felt it graze my cheek last night as I talked to 4 complete strangers about the merits of phone sex work.

Um, not really sure about the meaning of propriety. Not the naked part.

Because that would really change the meaning of my metaphor.

oh that...

I think it pinched my ass as it passed.

but i did ride my bike home. i fell off three times.

Ah, propriety's overrated. (For other people, that is.)

Talking to complete strangers (of which I was one, as I recall) about phone sex work isn't improper. Demonstrating the techniques at the next, karaoke-based, MeFi meetup would be. (so let's set a date already.)

(so let's set a date already.)

That would certainly help my feelings of disappointment that I didn't go (though setting a date already may be a bit..ho, hum...hasty)

...howzabout a tentative summer cookout?

and croquet.

and naked female jell-o wrestling.

..it was worth a shot..

Hey, folks, whatever happened to Miguel? I was offline for most of December, so I must have missed something.

Miguel who?

There was a guy here named MiguelSomething, but that was years ago...

Wasn't he from Morocco or something?

Not Morocco, someplace equally exotic, like Waukegan.

Miguel is missing in the mist.

Miguel is missing in the mist.

he is so, dammit.

Miguel is pissing in the pist.

* help me *

Maybe the dingoes ate your Miguel.

ooh ooh ooh AAAAAH

Damn, MeFi's down again. Have to pretend to be Miguel some more.

Whoa! I think I found Miguel!

"Officer, I swear, I turned around and there was just this velour robe on the floor, and he ... was ... gone!"

I was wondering that myself. Migs? Where are you? I work with a few Portuguese people, and couldn't help but ask if they knew an Internet junky in a smoking jacket.

I sense a new vide game being born here:Where In The World Is Miguel Cardoso?. Our target demographic is the drunk Portugese monkeyphile market. We'll millions or at least enough for a 12-pack and a bucket of buffalo wings.

Fork Miguel. I have another question.

What do non-smokers do with all this extra time? Today's been, what, thirty-six hours long already? I'm going nuts here, and it's only eleven o'clock.

Well, I either spend it on the computer or picking up behind my husband and kids.
Job security!

No one likes a quitter, Commish.

The search for Miguel continues...

Picking up behind them, b***y?

You think by now you'd have them paper trained at least...

I beg your pardon sir, have you seen my friend Miguel?

Sir? Sir? Perhaps my friend Miguel shared in your mead? Sir?

Oh. Oh dear.

*activates the MiguelSignal, waits*

(or should that be the CardosoBeacon? Or maybe the EstevesAlarm?)

Stav, maybe it's something like that thing the shined in the air to beckon Batman, on in Migs case it would have to project the shapes of a fifth of Maker's Mark and a can of Beer Nuts.

A quickie : The CardosoSignal!

Nineteen minutes, folks.

Wonderchicken for president of teh universe.

Does anyone have his phone number? I say we call the bastard. Stav, The MiguelSignal is very impressive but I'm a little worried it will attract imposters.

I looked at his web page, but since I know no Portuguese it wasn't terribly helpful. However, it looks like the recent comments are all from not-Miguel.

When was his last MeFi post?

Ah, finally got back on MeFi - let's see now, username.mefimiguelcardoso ... jeez, lookit all them comments ... hmmm, looks like he hasn't said anything this year. The last comments I find are from 12/30, on his own "ugly popstars" thread and his own "pictures of mefites" MeTa thread.

Did he say he was taking January off or something?

Well, the last time he was here, he said:

... I'm moving today and tomorrow and won't be online for a few days. ...

I hope he's okay.
As far as expressing final sentiments goes, calling him a "blasphemous shitfuck" probably wouldn't have been my absolute first choice.

There's not nearly enough weeping-because-Lupo-went-to-the-meetup-and-i-didn't in this thread.

I'm looking at you, adam.

BTW, my pics are here.

Oh, and Koko says hi.

Hey, I weeped. Wept. Whatever.

I hadn't looked in this thread since this comment:

"*activates the MiguelSignal, waits*"

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on January 12, 2003 12:07 AM

so I must say I am very, very pleased to see the Migsignal (Cardososignal, what have you) is recognized universally as a cocktail glass.

Alright, dammit. Whose tummy is witchstone preparing to lick?

I was gonna ask that, too.

And if there was video.

She was neither monkey nor mefite. But her image will stay with me always.

That's my rubber and my dollar, by the way. Not to mention, my monkey.

You drunken monkeys all looked fabulous at the MeFi gathering I missed out on. I'm definitely for sure coming to the next one, I'll be saving up my pennies for a ticket to wherever.

After surveying all the photo galleries of snap happy MeFites, I have just one question: Could witchstone be any hotter?

It looks like that woman pushing witchy down lower. So what happened after the bar closed?

: blinks :

: ponders :

What the hell was I looking at?

is pushing is pushing

weeping-because-Lupo-went-to-the-meetup-and-i-didn't
Oh, thanks a bunch for rubbing it in, heartless one.
*weeps*

BTW, who's a mothafuckin' mack daddy, yo? NTM, in that first pic it's amazing how closely the color of my t-shirt matches Roe's drink.

As part of my scandal-mongering behaviour, I gave Evanizer a lap dance, but really, I think he was the only one who was scandalized.

And they didn't even notice I was making a sandwich.

But the evening wasn't a total failure, I got her number. Bwahahahaha!

And why didn't I know that amberglow was there? Lucy, you got some splainin to do! And where was Liam?

I knew a girl once would could tell where you from based on your belly button lint's texture and flavor.

She works for the FBI, now, but they just have her make copies and file stuff.

Love is in the air...

I'm in London, missing the meet-up for the third time in three opportunities. When I return, I'm going to have my own damn meet-up and it's going to put friday's one to shame. If you come across a very drunk guy in a New York bar begging strange women to lick each other, you'll see what I mean.

wait a minute--I've seen you around the city before!

I'm a reasonable man, so I know that Pips isn't drinking pee water.

Right?

Ginger Ale, dong, ginger ale....

You have, Witchstone, but those times the women were just pretending not to know me.

Sad sad sad I am to have missed it. I'll really have to make the next one to repent.

Wait a moment, dogmaticMe was here! But not at the meetup.

Ginger Ale, dong, ginger ale

A less popular version of "Duck, Duck, Goose".

9622.net: drinking pee water

A less popular version of "Duck, Duck, Goose".

So, you hit someone on the head, call them a dong and then they chase after you.

Sounds pretty much like what was going on at the meetup.

Except I saw no ginger ale, except maybe as mix.

Dongs galore, just no ginger ale.
