Festival of the Dope Persuasion (Bay Area) Nov. 3rd

I’ll try to not be dead. I just am in the middle of moving out of SOMA hell into lower haight. The apartment is on the third floor and I collect old and rare books so its going to be way more manual labor than this rich bitch is used to. I also forgot that I have to prove that I exist and am not a sock or a troll so okay the carnival freak drunk lobster is back on. No one answered how i’m supposed to find you assholes.

See you at Molotov’s!

Look for a guy in a Giants hat (me) and a guy who looks like Hal Sparks (Demo), and a guy who looks like a young Donald Sutherland (Dunawake).

You go there a lot? I am moving like five feet away from that place. I saw it for the first time when I was looking at the apartment and thought “that’s a wonderful name for a bar”

Chances look increasingly slim that we’ll be braving the city for y’all, so I’m glad I didn’t try and firmly confirm. Party on without us, though.

As a denizen of of SOMA, I take offense.

If I weren’t so close to Lucky 13, I’d be at Molotov’s all the time; I love it.

Cometothedarkside is a nerd, alanak is surely mistaken about SOMA, and troy mcclure clearly has a drinking problem

Ditto. Have fun!

Heh. Oddly enough, the only other time I’ve been compared to a celebrity it was to Kiefer.

Nerdiness does not preclude hanging out at a bar with people from teh intarwebs. I will be in attendance, for example. I’d say you have to be a little nerdy to even have found this message board in the first place. Perhaps you haven’t admitted it to yourself yet.

Kiefer was my first thought, but I definitely see more Donald.

Wait until Saturday for this. Then we can all argue whether he looks more like Kiefer and Donald until the sun comes up. I’ll have visuals prepared.

Weak! You’d better have at least as good an excuse as you did for the last Dopefest you pussed out on.

Although, “We can’t make it, we have to butcher a steer,” is going to be hard to top.

Well, in all fairness, we didn’t have to deal with anything more than the average grocery store customer. Everything was cut and wrapped and already frozen by the time I saw it. We did have to deal with some 200 lbs of cowflesh at once, though. We later learned that it had been a young bull.

I just got a tentative “maybe…” out of my better half, who is blasting away on the couch in this, her 3rd day of being addicted to Psychonauts. So it does seem to be a bit more hopeful than previously described.

Ok, it seems that I will forever be having to choose between attending a DopeFest and visiting my Mom up in Humboldt. Last weekend I had wanted to go, but she was in Oregon attending a big birthday bash for the guy who used to shoe our horses (the oddest things prompt my mom to drive across state lines, though she did apparently win $250 at a casino along the way. Go Mom!).

And since I just eeked into the White Elephant exchange by the skin of my teethe, I’m dying to go root out something totally bizarre from the piles of flotsam and jetsam that my family has gathered through the eons.

I’m sorry! :frowning: :o

Next time…

Bump.

lobstermobster, can you confirm that there won’t be any bounce castles? Thanks. :stuck_out_tongue:

What do you have against bouncy castles? I can attest that bouncy castles go very well with beer.

there will be NO bounce castles in a mile radius.

what about snuggle castles?

There’s a small but finite chance that I may show up. My buddy says I can crash at his house, although I’m pushing my luck as I kind of use it as a hotel. And look, it’s my 1000th post!
