I cann't go: People hate me! Hate me I tell you. That and I have lots of grout to clean in the bathroom.
I'm not allowed to drink, but I'll be there. Un-ts!
tell me, mistah poe, do i go to slog and buy you beer, or go to a free movie? poe-sy tell me true...
Remember, if you don't have a handle, you can make one up on the spot.
For example, you can be Original Fnarf, Bob Dole's Evil Twin, or Irony Man.
Nobody's using those yet.
What did you do to cause that restriction, Poe?
Somebody make sure to write down the questions!
Amy perhaps you could post them the day after or something?
Soooooooooooooooooomething.
I will have one beer if it's dependent on STM's attendance.
And by "something", I mean "nothing". (But of course.)
@4: Sock puppetry!!!
Of course, Poe. You're always completely innocent.
Nothing interesting ever happens to me. I am innocent.
Poe, you will have more than one beer, and you will like it.
I will leave my handle at home. But I may bring my gun. . . . or maybe the other way around.
any hints on potential categories?
@9 - dang. Almost had the n00bs all showing up as Irony Man ...
Possible categories:
Best Original Name
Best Boyfriend Name
Most Offensive Name
Three Top Animal SLOG Posts
SLOGs that became National News
SLOGs that killed local transportation projects
SLOGs that resulted in or were about suicide
SLOGs involving Marriage (Same Sex)
All trivia will be pulled from the last 30 days on Slog, except for one segment of questions, which will be based solely on content in the print and web publication known as 'The Stranger' (as opposed to its blog). If you've been reading Slog regularly or are a good guesser, you'll do well.
Can I have all questions sent to me in writing a day in advance, same as a Fox News interview with George Bush?
@17:
! When I was in HS a million years ago, my ROTC instructor used to do that - and half the class still couldn't pass!
Speaking of puppetry, how do we know the people showing up to these things aren't puppeting someone? Maybe we need to put our emails on our name tags so the staff can verify.
I mean, I've never been to one of these things, but I keep hearing about some dude with a w7ngman name tag showing up and taking lovely ladies home with him.
@19: Well, you'd better show up then, because there is this one very attractive lady there claiming to be your girlfriend.
@17 - I'd like to have the answers to the questions sent to me a day before, since having met both Clintons multiple time I deserve to be treated as Royalty by the media and not made to play by the rules of normal people.
Oh, wait, this isn't an election?
Never mind. I'll take my chances.
Did you take her back to your pad, Will? Didja? Did you fuck her, Will?
@19: Lovely ladies? Plural!?
@20: Oh my. Thanks for the boost of confidence.
Fnarf, you're encouraging him.
And that is how you do an ironic post ...
Well, my excuse for not going was just taken off my hands for the evening. Now, I have to figure out a way to overcome my fear of meeting all of you in person.
@26: we're friendly, and the vast majority of us have conquered the basic rules of personal hygiene (i.e. we don't stink). There are no pitbulls, no youth pastors, drink specials, and we're all incredibly witty and beautiful when we're drunk.
poptart, of course you should totally go! even if jessica's description only applies to herself and a few others...
@28: I resent that implication!
Jessica is correct.
I know SLOG itself appears harsh, but in person is usually sweetness and light.
Sweetness and light... but only in dim lighting.
Plus, all Slog girls are uber-hot, even though the vast majority are taken.
@31 Eek, I'm a straight single woman but I'm not uber-hot, I'm just normal looking. I have enough money to buy people drinks, will that make up for my not being uber-hot?
