• Let the seething with envy begin. /seethe seethe seethe
• See this previous thread for more on squidranch's campaign to save Irv's.
• *seethes*
• It should be noted that LA monkeys are not known for their punctuality, so don't go running off alone with your banana feeling disappointed if no one is there at 6:05. Or 6:10 for that matter.
• Monkeyfilter: Running off alone with your banana feeling disappointed.
• Again, I'll most likely be in Southern CA (specifically, San Diego) around Christmas... if folks want to get together sometime between Xmas and New Year's, I'm up for the drive as I have friends in LA I already plan on visiting.
• More with the pictures of the glasses, the glasses with the faces of the cute ladies attached to them.
• *more seething*
• YaYYYYYY! I'll be there!! In the men's room! On my knees! All night! Hope you don't mind my cold sore!
• Best arguement for adult diapers I've seen...
• Dang. I just (five minutes ago!) arranged a dalliance with an internet acquaintance in the desert for Friday eve. Maybe I should postpone it.
• C'mon, goofyfoot! It'll be tons of fabulous. We're dying to hear your Tom Waits story.
• *seethes more*
• *sees morething*
• awww...tracicle, I wish we could afford to turn up at your door someday for a MegaMofiMonkeyMeetup.
• Give my love to Irv!
• There are more sorry-I-can't-make-its in the MeFi thread. Therefore... Modest proposal: How many more attendees can we attract by postponing it a few hours to Saturday? Please specify if Afternoon or Evening is preferable... *hopes this doesn't anger Space Kitty; don't want to get clawed*
• I wish we could afford to turn up at your door someday for a MegaMofiMonkeyMeetup. I'd like to put it on the record that I fully expect this for my next birthday. You'd better all start saving! I'll supply the beer. Frozen gnat's piss, for those who want to know.
• OHMIGOD! I just remembered! There's palm trees out front of Irv's! WE CAN CLIMB TREES!!! And eat bananas! And fling our poo! Seethe away, seething seethers! Its gonna be righteous! I'm gonna wear my pasties and speak in gibberish and show off all my new breakdancing moves and play the diggeridoo and tell the story about how i saw that lady who plays the mother on "everbody loves raymond" at the airport in my loudest voice and start a hopscotch tournament and do the conga and wear a lampshade on my head and get in a fight and eat a hot dog and show you how my beatbox is fresh and it'll blow your mind
• Do they allow diggeridos in West Hollywood? Sorry, I was thinking of Dippity-Do.
• Do they allow fecal projectiles in West Hollywood?
• Oh, man! I was back east at the beginning of the month and missed the NJ meetup because of a family commitment. And now I'm home and will miss the LA meetup because of another prior commitment with those very same family members. Coincidence? I think not! Whoever is bribing my annoying relatives in this conspiracy to keep me away from Monkey-meets, cut it out! I must know if Wendell is my long-lost twin brother! I must know, I tell you!!
• Mfpb 2 21, I'm pretty sure that's written into the charter. Fecal projectiles, gay bars and gambling. Something like that. We're still doing this today, right? Just checking is all.
• I'll take my seethe with a twist and two olives, please.
• Have a burger and a beer for me, guys (and hot bespectacled gals)....I'll be seething from 2500 miles away.
• Let the seething continue. I just got back from the desert (Palm Desert) to eat turkey with the family and was within a block or two of my house when I got a call from Sonia, the current owner of Irv's, telling me to hurry over to be interviewed by KCAL 9 here in LA. Anyway, I just got back from doing a pretty detailed interview with them. If any monkeys live in the LA area and wanna see what a big squid I really am, tune in. Oh, and I read the Craig's list post. WTF is this? Somebody here peed in the pool and it ain't cool.
• What? Somebody on the internet being a cockface? I swear, nothing is sacred anymore. Seriously, that's fairly shitty.
• Clearly somebody needs a little cockpunch.
• I could see that coming when this showed up on the MetaTalk thread: My associates need me in LA for a big client, so i'll swing by. posted by angry modem at 11:02 PM PST on November 25 So, is Wendell gonna run and hide from this big bully? Frankly, I've been feeling physically crappy for a week and as much as I'd like the opportunity to throw up on anusy modem, I don't think Irv's needs that kind of business, so I'm going to be there in spirit only. Watch MetaTalk for the next round of this grudge match. Anybody going to attempt to "live blog" the event? If modem or any other asshats crash the party, I'm sure the squidrancher will have a can of whoop-ass and an opener.
• After thanksgiving, I'm on a no-troll diet. I recommend burgers & drinks as a cure....
• Squidranch is more than happy to open a can of ass de whoop on which ever jerk boy needs it.
• What's the hullabaloo with the craigslist post? It's been deleted.
• It's working for me.
• The link, that is.
• It ought to be gone... and no longer loads for me. It was flagged as prohibited.
• Here's hoping that y'all's meetup is without anus.
• OK, wendell posted the CL ad in the MeTa thread. Whoever posted that is a fucking douchebag. Pardon my French. *seethes, for a different reason than the other seethers above*
• I'm loving him.
• Yes, that was deeply immature. And wendell is funny.
• not only squiud ranch and space kitty and mandy man an d mandy man but we are all posting here and sexyrobot as well....this monkey party is awesome
• ok, i have no idea wtf is going on w/squidranch's mouse, but trust me, it's NOT A PC. at any rate, the meetup was awesome, so sad, too bad for all the la mefi & mofi's who neglected to show up. as an extra side note, sexyrobot (who is indeed, very sexy) has said that he's the 'lameiest' because for some reason he knows not of the firefox. poor boy. but he's still cute. and now, over to mandyman.
• Hi. We're all abit drunk and squid's keyboard is massively fuuuucked up. Kitty's phone is all sticky and shit. Backspace is verbottemn we all took off our shirts photoes later

• PARTEE STILL GOIN ON
• I don't know nothin' about birthin' no babies (i.e. what is going on with the wendell fight on mefi) but we are having a good ol' time with me, space kitty, mandyman, sexyrobot, myself and sexyrobot's friend greenbelly are having the best time a bunch of alcohol soaked computer geeks can have. BTW, this is squidranch you hot munkey love bastages!
• kill the president kill the presidenrt stop usin g my login bithes yo yo yoy oyo munlkkeee pzaartee yeh yeh yeh
• Amateurs, I tell ya. These people need to learn how to hold their liquor!!! Lessons begin tomorrow. :D
• *applauds*
• Meh. Kids. If I had been there, I'd show you whippersnappers a thing or two. Probably my ass, that'd be one thing.
• I am so jealous. I hate you all.
• And where are the photos!?
• PHO-TOS! PHO-TOS! PHO-TOS!
• m.c.tool at the meetup
• Hello all, Just got back from breakfast at Dupar's in Farmer's Market in Hollywood with Space Kitty and Mandyman. As far as the photos, Space Kitty was able to snap a few with her camera phone but needs to find a way to get them from the phone to the computer. Now I am now going to take a nice long nap.
• BTW, the post above was by me, squidranch. Space Kitty was still signed in on my computer.
• Henceforth, shall we dub this the "Mofi Meetup - The Body-Snatcher Edition"?
• Henceforth, we shall dub this the "Mofi Meetup - We got really fucking drunk."
• Didn't the first mofi meetup (also southern california) go that way? It also concluded with drunken posting :) I think I see a trend.
• Yep. You wanna move here now, don't cha?
• we all took off our shirts Yep, it's Space Kitty Bits II, Electric Burgerloo. The hangover will really come when they read what they've posted. It's a good thing I wasn't there, because (a) I really can't drink (not a conventional drinking problem, but combined with my mandatory medicines, alcohol makes me very quiet and no fun and generally non-functional, and there weren't enough monkeys in attendance to carry me), (b) I really shouldn't be eating burgers, even the best in L.A., and with my luck, a TV crew covering Irv's would've caught me throwing up, and (c) the last time I took my shirt off in public, the glare from my pasty white skin blinded the pilot of a 737 flying over. Still, if I can blame anusy_modem for my non-attendence, I have certainly accomplished something that day. For the NEXT attempt at the next Southern California Menage-a-Filters, I am looking for a location that is eating-and-drinking-optional either a week before Christmas or a week after New Years'. Stay tuned.
• Multiple notes to self: 1. stop posting while drinking 2. it is not Mardi Gras 3. buy USB thingie to download pix from phone 4. buy stock in smart water/excedrin...
• Wendell, I never thought I would wish you HAD been there to set an example of restraint and good behavior for the Monklings. Tsk. Tsk. GramMa sez: don't you remember LAST time you went drinking? HEY! I am NOT a bitter old bitch 'cause I couldn't go!
• Space Kitty, It's always Mardi Gras. Always.
• GramMa, you know if it was me, I wouldn't have posted it anonymous. And I AM a bitter old bitch 'cause I couldn't go.
• I don't think anyone has mentioned the Monkeyfilter gang sign we came up with. It was badass.
• my client has no, i repeat NO comment on the activities of friday night. It was definitely those other monkeys threatening the life of our president, George W. Bush, and my client has no recollection of...well, very much at all. Where did this tshirt come from? Oh, and something about the images on the alleged camera phone. Furthermore, my client will be seeking financial compensation from the proprietors of "Hamburger Mary's" on the grounds that Green Apple is NOT a cosmopolitan flavor in more ways than one. -- sexyrobot's lawyer
• oh yeah! the gang sign, how could i forget! lol the funniest was squidranch using too many fingers...or too few...but what do you expect from his mostly octal background ...heehee ^ / \ / \ | | * * (( )( )) ))( )((( give up? it's a squid, frontin with his posse
• or supposed to be, anyway...now that i look at it, it looks more like jaon of arc being burned at the stake with pompoms on her shoes...plus they did not tie her down very well
• Oh, hey, sexyrobot. I saw that your, eh, lawyer had registered a MoFi account but I didn't activate based on the idea that a) it was probably you on behalf of your attorney, and b) that if it was indeed you, you may have been too drunk to remember you'd created it. :) Of course, I'd rather not be sued, so if your lawyer would indeed like his/her account activated, please let me know.
• Well, I wish that I was more than one cute girl with glasses. That way I could have wandered around Joshua Tree with a heretofore unmet internet friend before taking in a regional theater production of "Once Upon a Mattress," (both of which I totally enjoyed), AND goosed some MoFites.
• Where are the pictures? Where? Where?
• HaHa...beeswacky just wants to see my SHINY METAL ASS
• sexyrobot, can I steal your asci squid?
• Pictures! Pictures! Pictures...!!
• beeswacky just wants to see my SHINY METAL ASS but we'll settle for the citrusy-goodness of Space Kitty bits.
• steal away, squiddy...sorry for calling you 8-legged earlier...dont squids have 10? including those 2 long ones?.....anyways....i submitted a tshirt design...the threads still on the front page....including.......THE MOFI GANG SIGN!!! YAYYY! i had to alter some sign language instructions.....hopefully it will be deemed good enough and be up soon.... ps the cartoon posted by goetter was almost VERBATIM (no, not the disc people...i mean word-for-word) from the shindig...uncanny
