Okay, so I’m going ahead and setting this up, even though I’ll [sub]hopefully[/sub] not be living there by Halloween.
**OhDope 2, This Time it’s Frivolous** is on.
**When:** November 2[sup]nd[/sup] (the weekend after Hallowe’en) (or we can have it October 26[sup]th[/sup], the weekend before, if that’s better)
**Where:** Dublin (Columbus), Ohio
**Who:** Anyone and everyone that wants to come
**Why:** Because, what the world needs now, is love, sweet love…and a party.
**What to Wear:** Costumes are recommended, nakedness is recommended.
And in case you missed [last years](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=84668), you should [see what y’all missed?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=95840)

Also a maybe. Now that I have to be thinking about “real jobs” and “vacation time,” travel’s gonna get more difficult. Though it would be damn hard to pass up a party of this magnitude…
Why not call it OhnoDope or OhnotagainDope. You know that’s what the people at the apartment complex are saying.

Considering I live not 15 minutes away (I take my fencing lessons in Dublin)…count me as a maybe. I dont know if I my parents would let me out of the house to meet people online. lol. Why wants to meet a stupid 17 year old anyway?

Sure, why not.
Put me down for a “possibly probable good chance at nearly likely attendance”.

Maybe, but probably not. My parents are probably visiting that weekend, so it’d obviously be rude of me to ditch.
If they don’t, though, Kyla and I are sharing a car.

I’d love to be a definite, but right now all I can say is I wanna go.

November 2nd? Hmmm… let me check my appointment book… well, there’s my symposium on Cranial-Nervous Dysjunction among the Inner City Lemming Population…
Naw, mark me down as an “In”.
(I still have dibbies on floorspace? Yes?)
And **PantsGuy** , we ALL want to meet a stupid 17 year old. Just to see what we can talk you into. And we need a designated driver in case we need to go out for nachos or something. Really.
-Rue. (thinking of a costume)

Like I said, this can be moved back (forward?) to October 26[sup]th][/sup] if it’s a much better weekend for people.

Lessee, $225 for airfare. Or 850 miles/14+ hours driving - one way. And I do so love costume parties…
\
OK, here’s the deal. If I win the lottery, I’ll be there. Heck, if I win the lottery, I’ll even buy the beer. Failing that, I’ll be home wishing I could be there.
I swear, one of these days, I’m gonna meet you OhDopers!

That’s pretty much the expectation. If you don’t associate with us people may not be able to appreciate your relative sophistication and purity.
