I'm staying in the Gramercy Park area but will be skipping all over town. So if you want to see the man that London radio listenrs are calling "the dude who talks too fast" say so here!

Pub quizzes in Nashville are the pits. They're run by some independent small business with a name like "Trivia Time" and the questions seem to have been harvested by idiotic Google searches. And there's some sort of formulaic call-and-response "rapport" between the regulars (who name their teams with "naughty" "puns") and the personality-less hosts. What's worse is the alleged-hipster Vandy team that shows up everywhere in huge numbers, barely drinks so that they risk little and so the $50 credit you get for winning covers their one-pint-per-person tab-- and note this: they don't tip on the $50 credit. Scumbags.

I'd be up for a pint some time over the weekend, seeing as how I've been laying pretty low lately (not depressed just busy). Think we could pick somewhere in lower Manhattan or even perhaps my neighborhood (Smith Street in Brooklyn)?
― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 22 January 2007 17:00 (nineteen years ago)
I like Bacon. But the bacon is for other people. I can eat bacon whenever I want round here. I'm not sure of weekend movements but I am sure we can work something out. E-mail me off board.

Tonight won't work for me but I'd be up for a meet-up on Sunday afternoon/evening meet-up. The other option is Sunday brunch, which is a real NYC tradition. There's Pete's Tavern and Friend of a Farmer in the Gramercy Park area.
Oh, and please note that tomorrow will be the coldest day in NY in two years so bundle up!!

oh whoops, didn't see this. quizz-off is every wednesday at pete's. hosting is kind of fucking harrowing if you don't really know what you're doing (and have, like, 26 teams like we did).

Actually it wouldn't matter, since a post brunch crawl eems on the cards. Waiting outside in this weather seems foolish though...

But then if we don't want to wait outside we could just go with Pete's instead. O Henry used to hang out there.

BUT we shall all meet in front of Friend of a Farmer at 1pm. To make this easier, I will be wearing my Arsenal scarf (who will have beaten Bolton by this time), black wool coat, blue hat. I've met Laurel once and obv know what Pete looks like so this shouldn't be too difficult to manage. See you all there!

ok i kid. not hot at all. but i have a white eyebrow. i think that's why people stare at me on the train. or maybe they just do that because i am weird.
i will probably have on a black peacoat and orangey-red scarf. also, laurel knows what i look like.

it's not the bloody mary's fault, i swear!!!!
i hear enids has good ones, and i've had decent ones at harefield road. i think i had one at ww once but i was too drunk already to really tell how good it was. my guess is it was STRONG (hello, it was ww) so it was proabbly grebt!
maybe i will experiment with making them sometime but i am kind of opposed to buying vodka.
