2nd Annual Brooklynian FESTIVUS party - 12/21 8pm @Soda

I'm going to try to come - I mean, golly, I've never celebrated Festivus before - but I've been S&M (that would be Sinus & Migraine) Girl lately so I dunno. :x

Does anyone get pinned to the floor at the end?

Yeah, and who's gonna be the head of the household?

Last year, Carnivore was the head of the household. Unless DH shows up this year, I say we make him the head of the household again. It's funnier that way.

I'd wrestle Steve to the ground...anyone want to help? :-'

I wanna wrestle Carnivore to the ground and pin his arms until he cries uncle and admits that Two Boots serves pizza. :twisted:

Wait, whats the deal with those Two Boots places (downtown and park slope)? I heard they're NOT owned by the same person, but they're clearly associated with each other...

That's true, but I can't remember the history there.

no no no no no

the first candle event was at Sepia. at the table in the front.
you and I GOADED HER into the second candle event, which is the photo above. that photo was taken at Soda, near the rainbow wall, after a happy hour and NOT FESTIVUS.

she avoided candle drinking for the entirety of Festivus.

okay people. I feel the need to clear my name. there was *no* candle drinking at festivus last year. the candle trick was first demonstrated to me at the royal oak in january 06. I went on to demonstrate very poor recreations at sepia and then soda (I'm glad to see that people own up to goading me into doing this). I've been wax free since carnivore took that picture and posted it online. I plan to remain that way.

I'd like to join you guys for the Festivus party, but I'm kind of shy. Would anyone like to meet up in front of Soda and we'll walk in together?

My name is Inigo Montoya. You defamed my favorite pizza. Prepare to die.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Okay Mr. Dumpty. I suppose you can have it mean whatever you choose it to mean.

:roll:

I would, but I don't know what my ETA is and I will most assuredly be coming in hot.

I used to be shy when I was younger, so I'll be happy to meet you outside and go in with you, armchair warrior.

What time works for you? I'll be catsitting a friends cats in the hood around 8.

I'm still shy. I figure my Feat of Strength will be walking in by myself.

My work thing was moved to tomorrow, so I'll swing by for a round or three... should be there 8:30ish.

Sounds strenuous. I'll wrestle the gilfs.

There's a trick to it?

The trick is the part where she spit out a wax figurine that looked exactly like Gavin McLeod afterwards! :shock:

work is horrid and awful. not certain of my ETA and kinda PO'd because Soda doesn't let regular folk use their WiFi anymore and I'd sure like to so I could VPN to work to check on things. blargh.
hrm. maybe I'll borrow a laptop with a Verizon card from work ...
in any case, I'll get there when I get there. I'm hoping to bring this giant tub of popcorn along.

Dudes.

oh, please.

I won't be able to make it this evening but I hope y'all have fun!

DailyHeights, you gonna be there tonight?

A Festivus miracle: the pole arrived! Like literally 2 hrs ago... AFTER the UPS guy first dropped it off of his cart and then delivered it to the wrong floor. But the power of this magic holiday came through!
