So, I'll be in the Big Apple with the gf... anyone up for a low-key FAP type event? Maybe to help celebrate Nabisco moving? Maybe we could do something around evening-time in case peeps have NIGHTTIME plans? Just thinking out loud here people....

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 18 August 2003 16:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Is that Labor Day weekend? That's a good weekend to do it.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 16:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I might actually be up there around that time, like the 28th.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 18 August 2003 16:56 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll be having an invariably bad time at a weddding that weekend (and riddle me this, Batman....what sort've fucker throws a wedding on Labour Day weekend? An inconsiderate fucker, that's who.)

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes I believe it is Labor Day weekend!

That blows Alex. The worst are weddings that take up an entire weekend. Funk dat!

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex, clearly you must blow off the wedding and come hang with us. Also, it's the same type of fucker who was dead set on having their wedding on Easter weekend (eventually we managed to talk them out of this).

OK well I'll show up whatever night is decided as best for everyone as long as it is NOT the 28th.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Duly noted. So let's shoot for Friday or Saturday evening.

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex, clearly you must blow off the wedding and come hang with us.

No can do, sadly, as the inconsiderate fucker in question is a member of my extended family, which makes for a significantly more difficult wedding to blow off. I'd rather blow UP the wedding, actually.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm down for whatever might go down. Email me about other plans for the week, Aaron.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm either gonna have to be back in State College by Friday or saturday. So dependin' on which I may not be able to catch this thing. That said, I'm most likely going to be in town for part of the week (I'm probably coming on in the 25thish) so if people aren't all workscheduletacular I'd like to say yo, FAPwise if possible.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, god forbid Aaron hangs out with anyone besides you, Yanc3y. WHY DON'T YOU JUST MARRY HIM ALREADY???? OMG WTF!!!111

Alex, you never hang out with us anyway, we expected.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Jealousy is unbecoming on you, Ally.

(Aaron: Will you???)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:45 (twenty-two years ago)

I never thought you'd ask!!!! I DO!!! (where's the ring, bitch!)

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex, you never hang out with us anyway, we expected.

That's so not true! I went to the Siberia FAP!!!!

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

OK Alex, you're right, you came out ONE TIME A YEAR AGO. My mistake. SINCE then, when you met us and decided you hated us, you refuse to come out.

Midweek FAPs are no go for me. Ant, do you have my phone #?

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

That's so completely mean and untrue.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:04 (twenty-two years ago)

I know it's mean! You're a totally mean man! We all feel hated and neglected :(

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:05 (twenty-two years ago)

i can't make it to this fap :( but there should be another one in september!!

(and alex, ally is right: that siberia fap was forever ago! every time you don't show up to a fap a fire somewhere is dishonored!

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Don't we have to have a going away party for Tracer soon?

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes! This could be the "changing of the guard" FAP, where nabsico gets his and I get mine. And you all get yours. The only problem with these dates is that it's Labor Day weekend and people tend to be away (i.e. geeta)

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes but we also might have visitors from out of town on holiday weekends!! "Might" meaning "definitely" in this case cos Aaron doesn't live here yet. But we have to have property partyage for you, when are you leaving again?

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 18:36 (twenty-two years ago)

28th is best for me, 29th is the Magas show and I think I'm going to Philly on the 30th...

― hstencil, Monday, 18 August 2003 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

haha Ally types "property" reflexively: GET OUT OF THAT JOB WHILE YOU STILL HAVE NOMINAL CONTROL OF YOUR SENTENCES

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:04 (twenty-two years ago)

OMG I didn't even notice that. Holy shit. We can have a property partyage as well, let's just FAP in my office.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:17 (twenty-two years ago)

i'll see if D'Ag does bulk A-1 sauce deliveries

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:38 (twenty-two years ago)

ahem, uh, hm what? Yes, anyway, let's meet at a place with a patio.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:42 (twenty-two years ago)

94
Bwi Airport Rail Station (BWI) 2:32pm 08/28/03
New York-Penn. Station (NYP) 5:20pm 08/28/03

57
New York-Penn. Station (NYP) 8:50pm 09/01/03
Bwi Airport Rail Station (BWI) 11:41pm 09/01/03

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:52 (twenty-two years ago)

*funnily enough I discovered recently that just about the ONLY way to make the train more economical than driving is to park for over three days in Manhattan.

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Tracer, I'm going to beat you senseless at this FAP for that one.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 19:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Aaron, we will be in NYC arriving on the 30th. It's my wife's birthday weekend though and I can't guarantee she'll want to meet any of you terrifying people.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

The bus is a lot cheaper than the train, Tom.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

But it's the bus.

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Well yes. I'd like to take the Chinatown bus though. It seems exciting, like a movie. Breakneck speeds! Hong Kong music! Screechy drivers! You need to actually ask them to stop in Baltimore otherwise they don't!

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I played trombone for 9 years and went to every single football game and competition and state festival and yada yada yada during that entire fucking period, I've done my damn time on buses, I never want to ride one again. Ever.

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Is there a patio at your office, Ally?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:30 (twenty-two years ago)

There's a stoop off to the side, it's kind of porch-like.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Well yes. I'd like to take the Chinatown bus though. It seems exciting, like a movie. Breakneck speeds! Hong Kong music! Screechy drivers!

I took the Chinatown bus from Boston to NYC and back in October and it was pleasant. Zoned out with a book and iPod and instantly fell asleep. Best of all, the bus waiting areas are usually restaurants.

― Chris Barrus (Chris Barrus), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, that just put me off the Chinatown bus. I am not going for pleasant for that experience, Chris!

Haha, trombone.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 20:51 (twenty-two years ago)

"Changing of the guard" = I get all Tracer's stuff?

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 18 August 2003 21:57 (twenty-two years ago)

WRONG, I DO.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 21:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I think we should have an entire FAP consisting of watching someone steal the that huge fucking cock lobster in front of the Times Sq. Red Lobster.

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:01 (twenty-two years ago)

And that someone should be me.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:03 (twenty-two years ago)

That's what you think, Fujiko

― Lupin III (Millar), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Try and stop me! I could go right now, I'm totally buzzed off my ass.

― Fujiko (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Why would I want to STOP you?

― Lupin III (Millar), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:11 (twenty-two years ago)

You just implied you would. I'm confused. SURPRISE.

― Fujiko (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 22:14 (twenty-two years ago)

SURPRISE! I can't go to this FAP, either!

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 18 August 2003 23:44 (twenty-two years ago)

You and Alex should make a club.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 18 August 2003 23:45 (twenty-two years ago)

it's not my fault that these FAPs don't coincide with my schedule!

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 18 August 2003 23:48 (twenty-two years ago)

all the same, i'm sure that Aaron and his girlfriend will have a blast in NYC with the usual suspects.

― Tad (llamasfur), Monday, 18 August 2003 23:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Skipping 124 messages at this point... Click here if you want to load them all.

Fine. Meet earlier.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Well maybe they'll let us smoke in the clubhouse after, or there's always the front, like always. Or would people rather do Yabbey's?

X-post. OK, fine, meet earlier;)

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 21 August 2003 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

does this foreshadow the LL Bean Style Fall '03?

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Dammit, I'm moving to NYC. Anyone know a good babysitter?

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll babysit. You can go instead of me.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:23 (twenty-two years ago)

but...but.. you're half the reason I wanna go!!

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:25 (twenty-two years ago)

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I thought the Pizza Christ watched over us all?

― Spinktor the Unmerciful (mawill5), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll come up there too with L-dawg and him and S-dawg can just stay home alone and fend off burglars with a series of wiley tricks involving hot wheels and paint cans while we're out. Then we can all go back there and wake them up at 4 am and make them be cute for us while we're loud and ripped.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:30 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm totally gonna be there on Friday but I have to catch a bus at 11am on Saturday. ouch!

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I wouldn't let Pizza Christ within 20 feet of a baby!!

Ant, don't worry, we'll meet earlier then. Do people want to say start to meet up at 7? That way the post work crowd can just swing from their workplaces up to Pine Cabin Tree Swing Camp or whatever? That place sounds the bomb.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Wow, it is fairly close to where I live. And not conviently near Houston and Attorney!

― bnw (bnw), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:42 (twenty-two years ago)

You're so passive aggressive.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:43 (twenty-two years ago)

S-dawg and L-dawg ain't no babies, they BIG BWOYS. I don't know about S-dawg, but my little L-dawg ain't called COLOSSUS for nuthin'. Seriously, sometimes he randomly decides to move people's furniture.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:44 (twenty-two years ago)

can we have a theme?

― Carey (Carey), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:44 (twenty-two years ago)

You're so passive aggressive.

I'm not talking to you anymore. And I'm not telling you why.

― bnw (bnw), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:47 (twenty-two years ago)

They're a match made in hotwheel heaven. Boo had his yearly checkup a couple days ago and he's 4'1" and weighs 63 pounds. At nearly 6 years old. Holy crap.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:47 (twenty-two years ago)

can we have a theme?

"electric avenue" or "party all the time"!

― Tad (llamasfur), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:48 (twenty-two years ago)

bnw, I'm used to that happening to me ;(

I don't understand those themes, Tad. Explain.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Lukas = 3'6" 55 lbs. at 4 years old! Woah dude, what's up with our kids being so gigantic? We should make a movie like Godzilla vs. King Kong only be Colossus vs. Boo and they can destroy NYC while we're FAPping in the background.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't understand those themes, Tad. Explain.

i think that they'd be pretty obvious!

― Tad (llamasfur), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:56 (twenty-two years ago)

I think our theme should be mermaids and sailors.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

does this foreshadow the LL Bean Style Fall '03?

Not quite, it would be better if we were meeting at Gowanus Yacht Club for that, by Y3 says that place isn't big enough for a large group.

I think the theme of this is end of summer vibe, summer camp reunion, wardrobe: those too tight second hand summer camp Ts. Phil can tell you wear to find them.

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 21 August 2003 19:23 (twenty-two years ago)

(PS: Meeting after work is a good idea. That was the scedule at the Art Bar Fap which allowed for much ruin to ensue.)

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 21 August 2003 19:25 (twenty-two years ago)

http://www.creativelightworldwide.com/pages/buyers/featurefilm/wethot/images/wethotposter.jpg

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 19:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Tad's theme is annoying catchy tunes sung by black guys named Eddie. I like it but I don't think it gels with the venue very well.

If we go as WHAS I get to be that asshole with the hot girlfriend.

― Millar (Millar), Thursday, 21 August 2003 22:20 (twenty-two years ago)

How do you dress to express "annoying catchy tunes sung by black guys named Eddie" though?? And why would anyone really want to be Paul Rudd. Our theme should be anime? Question marks?!

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 23:15 (twenty-two years ago)

haha Luke and I are going to eat PIZZA* and watch that movie right now in preparation. He hasn't seen it before.

*Christ!

― Millar (Millar), Thursday, 21 August 2003 23:29 (twenty-two years ago)

I like the fact that in my last post the only thing not receiving a question mark was a question. Anyway I ate some fruit! It was so great and satisfying! In no way am I jealous of pizza! Fuckers.

Actually this whole thing should be a ridiculous costume party.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 21 August 2003 23:32 (twenty-two years ago)

Right I'm not gonna be checking this. As far as it stands the plans are as such:

Friday Evening, approx 8
Cabin Tree Lodge
Theme is SUMMER CAMP

If it changes can someone kindly email me? I'll be there dressed as the trashy ho camp counsellor.

― Ally-zay (mlescaut), Saturday, 23 August 2003 18:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I may have already promised myself for the Magas show, but if this gets going I'll make an effort to catch up with it.

― nycabisco, Sunday, 24 August 2003 17:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't make this, but I am going to be in NYC that weekend and have got to find something fun for my wife to do on Labor Day evening (Monday night). Having not been to NYC for six years I can't remember what was interesting then and wouldn't expect it to still exist now. Any non-pretentious club suggestions in Manhattan are very welcome. Remember it's a Monday night, which in SF means nothing is open but this is likely not a concern in a real city.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Monday, 25 August 2003 17:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think I'll be able to make it as my ladyfriend's playing early at Luxx then I have to jet over to Rare for Magas. Hey nabisco, uh, look for the dude! That'll be me!

― hstencil, Monday, 25 August 2003 17:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Fannypack are playing that night, too: it's been like four days here and I'm already experiencing things-to-do overload.

― nycabisco, Tuesday, 26 August 2003 00:27 (twenty-two years ago)

tronic treatment at sullivan room is monday nights, i think. hope you get this in time. it runs late, and is pretty okay.

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 26 August 2003 03:12 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm taking the bus up to NY in about an hour and will probably get there around 9 or 10pm. Sadly (well NOW it's sadly) I do not have my own cell-phone but if there's any cool shit goin' on before Friday please let me know. I should be reachable through Carey. See ya soon, big city folk.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Wednesday, 27 August 2003 13:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Errrrrrrr.... I'm afraid I'm heading to the Jersey Shore today and won't be back till Saturday. Sorry I can't make the FAP that I seem to have called for. I'm a dick.

I will be around Saturday though.

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 28 August 2003 12:59 (twenty-two years ago)

what a dickhead. i have to work, and uh, cant come either...

― phil-two (phil-two), Thursday, 28 August 2003 17:26 (twenty-two years ago)

There is a rumor that I will be at work until 3 a.m.; if this is the case all campers will be free of their den mother tonight.

― Mary (Mary), Friday, 29 August 2003 20:40 (twenty-two years ago)

We should just move the FAP to your office then.

― Carey (Carey), Friday, 29 August 2003 21:07 (twenty-two years ago)

apparently before the Magas show at Rare (which I figured out is the old Cooler, duh) is a party for Arthur magazine at which Rolling Rocks will be free from 8-10. Don't know whether I'll get there in time, but hopefully I'll be there by 10.

― hstencil, Friday, 29 August 2003 21:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I heard it was PBR.

― Paul Eater (eater), Friday, 29 August 2003 21:20 (twenty-two years ago)

the email I just got from Magas' record shop sez Rolling Rock.

― hstencil, Friday, 29 August 2003 21:27 (twenty-two years ago)

You must report back tomorrow on this critical issue.

― Paul Eater (eater), Friday, 29 August 2003 21:41 (twenty-two years ago)

If I make it in time!

― hstencil, Friday, 29 August 2003 21:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Mary posted right around the time I put Chuck's book back on the shelf at Strand (tho i'll get it eventually, most likely). hmmmm.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Friday, 29 August 2003 21:48 (twenty-two years ago)

you guys are all awesome, how did it go in the end?

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 29 August 2003 22:45 (twenty-two years ago)

It's most likely just started stevem, though you are awesome too.

― Mary (Mary), Friday, 29 August 2003 23:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Dude. I am so there. I am going to pretend like I'm a "lurker" and you will all be fooled and like me. I will go home with Ally. Mark my words!

― Scaredy Cat, Friday, 29 August 2003 23:38 (twenty-two years ago)

thus proving that all lurkers are creepy?

umm, sorry nabisco I didn't make it in to Rare. Freakin' Magas forgot to put me on the list (SHAME! on ME!).

Sorry FAPers, I couldn't remember where it was, so I ended up going to my friend Russ's place in Brooklyn and got stoned and listened to bad Crazy Horse albums circa 1989. I'm sure you understand.
