MICHAEL BAY EXPLOSIONS!
posted August 31, 2012 11:15 AM   RSS | iCal | +googleCal

Sat October 13 at 8:00 PM, grippycat's house
35 Mariner Terrace, Toronto, ON M5V 3V7, Canada (Map & Directions)
Let's watch Transformers, and take a shot for each explosion. Also also: I have a new roommate, and I'd love to frighten him with a welcome to Toronto :) My buzzer code exists just to mock me. If no-one is at the front gate, call me at 416.823.6548 and I'll let you in! OH! OH! And if you find me a VGA cable, you'll win 33 bottles of marinated garlic!!
Maudlin's suggestion: the first weekend after Thanksgiving (ca. October 13)?

Tell me how to skip the Michael Bay part of it and I could possibly arrange to attend.
Oh, and probably the shots part of it too. (Damn, I'm getting old.)

Let me see: blindfold, ear plugs, gimp suit -- sure, we can make this work :-)

Oh hey, I just image-searched "gimp suit" at work. Those were quite the images!

Flex! Come early, watch Trapped In A Closet. We can eat Delicious Cake and Tea until tantrumthecat, maudlin and I get out the chloroform and gimp suit :3

You're going to scare off all the people who don't know us. (And me, NOT THAT YOU CARE.)

All right, all right, I may have to crash at someone's place though if I come out. I told you I'm old. Can we watch something more fun than Michael Bay? Can we play board games? Or, oooh, could we play Fiasco? I'm dying to try it out.

You're free to crash here if you come out (bonus: right beside the gardiner for easy escape access). Y'all bring boardgames, I'll queue up a redonkulous set of movies and we can pick/choose fun.

I'M SCARY!! FLEX IS LESS SCARY!! Three of the confirmed guests are CATS!!

Three cats?!?
posted by Chuckles at 1:12 PM on October 12, 2012


What can this cat bring, other than a chair and some wine? (Or does someone have another poison-of-choice? I'm easy.)

So you mean I won't face COMPLETE allergy overload then? :)

You will have to choose, though: Benadryl or alcohol? Bay or non-Bay? Cake or death?

Sorry I can't manage it tonight - too much on my plate this weekend. Hopefully next time!

NOooo! That's ok we love you ayways :)
posted by grippycat at 10:59 AM on October 13, 2012


Do you have the VGA cable yet?
posted by Chuckles at 12:48 PM on October 13, 2012


Not yet - It's a grueling race to see who finds one first in order to win the Box Of Nasty Marinated Garlic. Bring a VGA if you have one, please :)
posted by grippycat at 12:55 PM on October 13, 2012


And pssst - If you get lost, I'm in the apartment with the damn ugly 4x6' Morrissey on the balcony :3
posted by grippycat at 1:25 PM on October 13, 2012


There will be a climbing contest to your balcony? Whoever scales Morrissey gets a box of wet gladioli?

("Who finds [a VGA cable] first"? Oh, this won't even be a contest :-)

On out way back from the beerstore, New Roomie asked what was up with the Balcony Poster of Exes Past.

Reader, he's too young to have heard the Smiths. Had no idea who Morrissey was. I are oldz.

Forgot that I purged a bunch of cables. :(

Running fashionably late here. :)

Wah!

Thanks for coming out! We must do more weird movie parties!

Thanks for having it, great fun!
posted by Chuckles at 1:10 PM on October 14, 2012


Yep, that was a kickass meetup. Yay and thanks!

(Sorry, typewriter! We were still going strong at 11 with Rocket Robin Hood. I think we all staggered out around 2 or 2:30.)

That was a fun night of marvelously absurd media, you've all set a high meetup-bar for me! :) Thanks for having me, it was great to meet everyone!
