Drinking Sadlyly Is Refreshing Its Drinky-Drinks




Posted at 3:17 by Gavin M.

Doodle Bean here.

Surprisingly, not one person is under the table… at least not so far!

In addition, some good may come out of this. Gavin may get his tooth fixed tomorrow, I just found out Pedestrian likes my art (althoug the Virgin Ben probably wouldn’t), and Blue Buddha is really psyched about organizing the First Annual Bollywood Dance Party train.

Watch here for details!

Anne Laurie passed the mic w/out comment.

Chairman Meow saith:
Best misheard phrase of the evening = “Beacon Hill” <--> “Vegan Hell.” As in “opening a restaurant in….”

Because that’s how we LIEberals run thangs. At least we don’t have Bacon-PlayDoh Fricassee on the menu.

    Gavin’s Fiancée,

    I can’t make it, but if you’re Gary Ruppert, we’re going to need pictures.

    Camera phone would be fine, kthxbai!

    Are you serious?

    The edificalicious Anne Laurie is at your event?

    Dammit. Never even thought.

    Why would you even talk to anyone else?

    Y’know, it occurs to me that this may be the reason teh blogs are viewed with dis when compared to “real” journalism, although the function and purpose are identical.

    It may be something as simple as the Dateline.

    For example, this one starts:

    “Doodle Bean here.”

    Gnome Sane?

    In fact, never mind. This is a hole I can only dig INTO, not so much ever OUT of.

    Sounds like it was a good party….

    That was a mic?!? Fvck, but I am old and technology-challenged. I thought I was being instructed to pass the yubeess thingie to the the person next to me…

    Repeated from below: Thank you DoodleBean and Gavin’s Fiancee!

    Spent three hours monopolizing Brad, diffBrad, Miguel, Wyatt, and sometimes Frederick. Didn’t get to talk much with the Amazing Women of Sadly, No! who were all at the *other* end of the table (too intimidated). Picante makes an excellent steak burrito, and I want to do this again! Maybe once a month, same station, not necessarily same time?

    P.S. Remind me sometime, when I am not so tired, to explain to you young’uns about the fan-concept “Relaxacon”…

    Gavin M.: “At least we don’t have Bacon-PlayDoh Fricassee on the menu.”

    Surely, there’s something you can do with soybeans. It just seems so illiberal to discriminate against the ‘Bacon-Playdoh Fricasee’ crowd.

    This was really bugging me. Chairman Meow really reminded me of someone but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out who. Then as soon as I get on the T:

    Ana Gasteyer.

    Good to meet everyone. Even that dude who wasn’t a Sadly Noer was cool in his own way kind of.

    You guys ate Picante and I’m eating Anna’s. Ergo I win.

    Amen to that. Now, I really have to get to bed. I have to work tomorrow!

    G’night all! We’ll have another Drinking Sadlyly sometime soon and I’ll make sure we post lots of reminders for Me.

    Actually had to think about that. Which only makes me like it more.

    Can’t have been mine, Marita — I weren’t wearing any when I got there!

    Don’t you think that if all the Sadlynauts in the country got together at the same time that it would realign the stars or reorient the planet or something?

    Naw, me neither!

    Sorry to miss the party. But some of us had to plot the overthrow of civilization. That took an hour. And then parking was difficult. Followed by very long, very esoteric (but good) movies at the HFA.

    But I’ll be there next time!

    BTW: Which one of you got onto my train at midnight with all the plastic bags?

    BTW: Which one of you got onto my train at midnight with all the plastic bags?

    Did you notice if the bags were filled with dicks? If so I know who it was.

    So was there anyone lurking around the joint with a gas can and a pack of matches, grumping about one too many party updates? I was worried for youse and if I could have made it I would have sat near the fire extinguisher. But hopefully you’ll make it a regular thing and maybe next time on a night when I can get loaded. I hope the post drinking orgy met expectations too.

  55. jon said,

    April 28, 2008 at 17:05

    Lawnguylander – looks like the last orgy was awhile ago:
    http://whrb.org/pg/JanFeb2008.pdf
    But, they never tell me anything.

    Fortunately, the General provides me with all the orgy info I need.

    And no, I didn’t see any dicks. But then again, I wasn’t looking. What’s your stance?

    If the bag was full of dicks, it was Ace.

    Yes, he was invited but no, he didn’t come. We did discuss the shape of his head, though.

    No, not that head. His cranium!

    OK, that’s “g,” me, Jay B., my former neighbor Hoosier X, & a few other people I’ve not noticed in my recently infrequent visits, whose handles I’ve forgotten, but who admit to living in “The Southland.” If every one interested in attending would let us know the latitude & longitude of their starting point, we could figure where the exact center is & meet there, or at the closest watering-hole. (It’s a biiiig region.) Or, we could have the party in, say, Burt Prelutsky’s pants. Or mouth.

    Either way, I’d be happy to meet some of you somewhere for some reason. If we start planning now we should have it together by the vernal equinox or so.
