are dogs allowed? dude attended festivus at sharlenes with no problem. ...but I would imagine it depends on the dog and the bartender on duty

carmen · February 2010

i wonder if brunito is welcome

em26 · February 2010

I'm going for sure and my head will NOT be on the table. [-(

stooplady · February 2010

What if you don't drink?

carmen · February 2010

then youre BANNED.

no i would assume that means you can show up and, ya know, not drink. I do that sometimes. My boyfriend does it all the time. It works.

Additional Agenda Items:
1. Not to go all George Bernard Shaw on your ass, but if "globaled" and "sticky'd" are words, why the orthographic inconsistency? Why not "global'd" and "sticky'd" or (my preference) "globaled" and "stickied"?
2. "Give a man a ghoti, and he eats for a day. Teach a man to ghoti and and eats for a lifetime." Discuss.

stooplady · February 2010

I don't know if I really want to meet any one from the site. It's fun not knowing who folks are except...for their dog/cat/alien/funny monikers and pics. I like imagining who folks might be.
Oh brother. :roll:

carmen · February 2010

hint - i'm not a man (apparently a common misconception.) You might be surprised, actually... it might be fun to try to guess everyones usernames based on their actual appearances...

stooplady · February 2010

whoa hey whoa hey whoa :cyclopsani:

whynot_31 · February 2010

While StoopLady is not drinking, we could make her guess our identities.
...Dude would stay home so he didn't give me away.

lneson: An orthographically inconsistent person is unlikely to know that's what they are being. just sayin'

christina · February 2010

Is the "definitely no" vote interesting at all? Wouldn't "Maybe" be more of interest? I mean..do we not meet if there are more no than yes votes?

carnivore · February 2010

I don't care about the "no"s. It's just that the site requires at least 2 poll options, and I definitely didn't want a "maybe" option, because I want a real head count and "maybe" really means "probably not." Also, "maybe"s ultimately turn into "yes"s or "no"s, and then it's too late to change the poll answer, and it becomes impossible to tally. I'd rather people just don't answer until they know if they can come. There's no rush to know whether someone MIGHT come.

Anyway, I think we already have a quorum, so this is a go.

When I talked to Sharlene last time, her requirements for dogs are basically what you'd except. They need to behave like a patron would: no pissing on the floor, barking at strangers, humping people they don't know.... :P So if your dog is well behaved then she has no problem with having them at the bar.

christina · February 2010

Wait..patrons can't piss on the floor?

Are we sure this the right venue for us?

mougar · February 2010

I'll be there, eating a fried pork chop sandwich from carneviento

scarlett · February 2010

No humping strangers? I am out then.

This set of rules may rule us all out except Dude.

Why not, "Yes, but not on time?" I would've put myself in that column.
Or "My dog/cat/avatar is definitely coming, but I have something else to do that night."

whyfi · February 2010

sweet tea · February 2010

a stranger is just a friend you haven't humped yet.

the missus and i are in the famous "maybe" category.

d_luxx · February 2010

I'm gonna try to make it, and am looking forward to meeting people in real life, even though I feel a little shy.
Whynot, I think I will recognize you because we met when you did some contractory-y stuff in my apartment.

architecture biscuit · February 2010

I've never gone to any of the Brooklynian outings before and I don't post here all that often, but I lurk constantly. Although I'm a bit on the shy side I'm quite interested in meeting you folks and getting to know a few more people in the neighborhood...so I'm going to try to come out, but I can't give this a definite "yes" vote just yet.

Dude is no dog - he is a tiny Yoda-ish man in a dog's coat.
