You haven't been? Beer selection's a bit lacking, but the donuts are always amazing. Baked on-site, too.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:14 (twenty years ago)

Other bars that would be better than the unmentionable place:
Squirrely's
Green Room
Dunn Right Inn
Sweaty Betty's
The Wheat Sheaf
The Tap
Gypsy Co-op
Red Room
Black Bull
Hurricane's
Insomnia
Clinton's
Thymless
The Cadillac Lounge
Sneaky Dees
The fucking Rivoli!
any one of the 1,000 pubs we have downtown
any chinese place that has beer
the park at King & Jarvis
Barry's apartment
etc

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 22:53 (twenty years ago)

My fave suggestions from that list:

Squirrely's
Sweaty Betty's
Gypsy Co-op
Black Bull
Clinton's
The Cadillac Lounge
The fucking Rivoli!
Clinton's

I generally don't like Red/Green Room, but I've never been there with you guys and if everyone gets wasted it could be fun. Also, I didn't realize you (Thermo) were so into the Bloor/Bathurst bars!

These are more for after hours drinking:

any chinese place that has beer
the park at King & Jarvis
Barry's apartment

The first two are fairly roomy, the third is a bit cramped but they play the best music in the whole city!

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:03 (twenty years ago)

I am "into" the Bloor/Bathurst bars because I walk by them all the time and are therefore the easiest to remember.

I am having the biggest craving for Pad Thai from the green room right now just from typing the name!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:06 (twenty years ago)

woo! yeah let's trash Barry's place.

historically, i don't think we've done too well getting wasted at the green room. i think their servers like to give the time to sober up entirely between each and every beer.

― Kim (Kim), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:10 (twenty years ago)

Well, my criteria are always the same:

a) sound system that we don't have to scream over
b) decent selection of beers on tap.

And I have to admit that I haven't been to half the bars on Thermo's list, so, surprise me!

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:32 (twenty years ago)

Fuck it. I'm going to the Green Room *right now*

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:38 (twenty years ago)

Tortilla Flats makes a variable drinkable sangria and they have a patio...

the park at King & Jarvis

*St James Park in the flippity floppity floop.*

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 27 April 2006 02:51 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to the Green Room *right now*

I might have gone with you if I hadn't been so tired (sleeping, actually).

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Thursday, 27 April 2006 03:32 (twenty years ago)

Hey if anyone can make it, I've got a string quartet that will be performed at the Music Gallery May 14. So I'll be around for a couple days too.

― Sundar (sundar), Thursday, 27 April 2006 04:25 (twenty years ago)

(And I think I have photographic evidence that we've been able to get drunk just fine at the Green Room.)

― Sundar (sundar), Thursday, 27 April 2006 04:26 (twenty years ago)

Hey Sundar, I assume you know about this show?

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Thursday, 27 April 2006 04:38 (twenty years ago)

I wasn't drunk I just didn't want my picture taken since SOMEBODY, I'm not naming names spilled their beer infront of me. And I hate having my picture taken.

So excellent.

― Henrietta Leavitt and the Cepheid Variables (kate), Thursday, 27 April 2006 13:32 (twenty years ago)

Tortilla Flats, then?

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Thursday, 27 April 2006 19:45 (twenty years ago)

Which one?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 27 April 2006 20:03 (twenty years ago)

Er, not to sound like a complete idiot, but, how are they different? I've been to one of them at least a few times, and enjoyed it, but I couldn't tell you which location it was, seeing as they're both on Queen West, and (if these listings are correct) within staggering disctance of each other.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Thursday, 27 April 2006 20:13 (twenty years ago)

staggering disctance

distance, even.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Thursday, 27 April 2006 20:13 (twenty years ago)

Which one?

There can be only one. The one east of Spadina (aka the old one) closed down a few weeks ago. The old Duke of Connaught that was closed down for years across from the KFC is now the only Tortilla Flats.

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 27 April 2006 23:41 (twenty years ago)

Ah.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Thursday, 27 April 2006 23:44 (twenty years ago)

omg that's a PRE-COUPLE picture. i was so flirting with you. you can tell by the oh so subtle wrist imprisonment.

torilla flats better for patio weather, but would be ok.

― Kim (Kim), Friday, 28 April 2006 00:31 (twenty years ago)

Y'all are TOO CUTE!

So, Flats, when?

haha! what the hell?

yeah sorry, lately = since it went from cbc to showcase. i think i like the simplest challenges best. the more complicated ones feel too fakey. and if they're not you kinda have to lose all respect for Spenny.

― Kim (Kim), Thursday, 8 June 2006 01:56 (nineteen years ago)

is ok if we can't get there until around 10 or so? there is an apparent conflict with a soccer game.

― Kim (Kim), Saturday, 10 June 2006 17:56 (nineteen years ago)

oop, cancel that. didn't know he already talked to you.

― Kim (Kim), Saturday, 10 June 2006 18:11 (nineteen years ago)

I was hoping to be in bed by 10 ;)

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 10 June 2006 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

so, did the marker come off?

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 11 June 2006 16:52 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not the least bit hungover today. I'm not sure how that's possible.

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Sunday, 11 June 2006 18:07 (nineteen years ago)

I think because you somehow gave your hangover to me. Bastard.
You would not believe the cleaning job that lies before me today.
And yes, the marker came off.

The challenge ended as a tie, btw.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 11 June 2006 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

How about this: I'll trade you Aubrey Huff in exchange for your hangover and Tom Glavine.

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Sunday, 11 June 2006 18:58 (nineteen years ago)

I feel pretty groggy. Too much weed & Strongbow, not nearly enough food.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Sunday, 11 June 2006 18:58 (nineteen years ago)

We drinkin' again anytime soon?

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Sunday, 11 June 2006 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

Well, I have lots of beer here that, believe it or not, did not get drank!

Barry, I just peeled off a scab that I'll trade you for Huff. Offer expires in 2 days.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 11 June 2006 20:42 (nineteen years ago)

OK fine, be stuck with that hangover if that's the way you want it.

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Sunday, 11 June 2006 20:45 (nineteen years ago)

Beats having Huff in my line-up.
Beats it with a baseball bat.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 11 June 2006 20:52 (nineteen years ago)

And just in case you didn't notice, i went up 12 points yesterday!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 11 June 2006 20:53 (nineteen years ago)

We drinkin' again anytime soon?

I believe we need to go hoborum drinkin with The DoctorB before he takes his CFL punting career to the motherland (you went to Africa? NO! Japan!).

Help Kish won't get outta my head.

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Monday, 12 June 2006 12:30 (nineteen years ago)

Indeed - do you know when you're going yet, dude?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 12 June 2006 13:58 (nineteen years ago)

I leave on July 16. Punting has become a worldwide phenomenon. Hoborum on the 8th might work.

While it's on my mind, I just realized that there are slim pickings for baseball games in early July. I'll probably be busy during the Philly series, then they're on the road, then there's the All-Star break, and then it's Seattle (sans Ryan Franklin). Maybe King Felix will start during that series?

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Monday, 12 June 2006 15:05 (nineteen years ago)

Hoborum on the 8th? Sure, why not?

~~What's a Hoborum?~~

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Monday, 12 June 2006 19:50 (nineteen years ago)

hobo-rum

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 12 June 2006 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

Q. Are those the prostitute's kids?

A. Yeah, the ho bor'um.

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Monday, 12 June 2006 20:53 (nineteen years ago)

guys, i still can't believe you drank the hobo rum!

sorry i left half of that coors shit there dyson. i'm sure someday someone will be indiscriminate enough to actually finish it off.

― Kim (Kim), Monday, 12 June 2006 23:13 (nineteen years ago)

You're not coming back to watch some hockey and finnish those things off?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 12 June 2006 23:19 (nineteen years ago)

in theory it could happen. if we ever get these invites out. WHY didn't we hire/bribe/beg you to make them for us? this is hell on earth. i finally gave up on using any form of graphics program to draw the map and did it by hand and scanned it in. so now i have picture with a bunch of unnamed streets, and nothing else. yay.

oh yeah, and in the ongoing lost wallet saga - today i finally get a courier message from purolator telling me that i can pick up an envelope from them (that would be my replacement birth certificate - step ONE in rebuilding all my other gov't IDs) and guess what? i'd have to go in with a piece of gov't photo ID to pick it up. that's the same ID i can't get without what's in the envelope. omg. the only way around it is that i will have to take an entire day off work now just so i can be at this address during the day to sign for it. seriously - never do this.

― Kim (Kim), Monday, 12 June 2006 23:49 (nineteen years ago)

Why don;t you just send me what you want and i can have a slick looking map all done up for you in a day or two.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 16:01 (nineteen years ago)

seriously? damn u rule! ok i will email you laters with the specs.

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 22:04 (nineteen years ago)

I know.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 22:25 (nineteen years ago)

sorry dude, if your gmail seems to be taking years to open it's cause i sent you a file that's about half the size of the entire internet.

― Kim (Kim), Saturday, 17 June 2006 18:13 (nineteen years ago)

Kim broke the Web!

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Saturday, 17 June 2006 18:42 (nineteen years ago)

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Monday, 3 July 2006 23:07 (nineteen years ago)

shit, i forgot - did Barry already leave us? nooooo.

and damn you people, send me your addresses already or else i will assume you hate me. or him. him? it's him isn't it? send pls. mailing now, for real! do or die, etc.

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 04:06 (nineteen years ago)

ADDY HAS BEEN SENT

I did leave you, but only for Paris + Berlin, got back last Wednesday night (sans luggage), finished packing and moving back to the mean streets of Sheppard + Leslie on Friday (but not before my laptop's hard drive died literally ten minutes before I went to pick up the van), where Air Canada reunited me with my luggage (therefore sparing me the trouble of having to drag it back to my old house and then move it). Unfortunately the HD is well and truly dead (but the computer is still under its service warranty), luckily I'm no idiot and had backed up all of my critical data, unless you count 10GB of slsk'ing as "critical data".

Impending FAP/simulated World Cup final? (I will captain the German side, Zac can captain the French side)

I shall get right on practising the Henry 'what me offside?' shoulder shrug right away.

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 12:51 (nineteen years ago)

just for a second i thought i had somehow missed 160 posts to a new thread. scoundrel.

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 13:14 (nineteen years ago)

I know! wtf!

you have my addy still, right?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 14:10 (nineteen years ago)

I think we need a postal code but I we can figure that one out.

I'm no scoundrel, I'm a rouge. :P

Can you now fall down hysterically at the slightest of breezes?

― Rufus 3000 (Mr Noodles), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 02:57 (nineteen years ago)

Only if that breeze is made by the waving of one's hand in the general vicinity of my back [/christiano ronaldo].

Does anyone want to gather at Harbourfront this Saturday night for the (FREE) Konono No. 1 + Jamie Lidell gig?

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Thursday, 6 July 2006 05:46 (nineteen years ago)

YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES!

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Friday, 7 July 2006 01:59 (nineteen years ago)

Glad that's settled. I think Lidell is at 8 and Konono #1 at 9:30?

― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Friday, 7 July 2006 02:30 (nineteen years ago)

I would if I could but I got a soccer game up in North York.
