I would love to join in but I have to miss class that night for another gig! Happy birthdays from me, though. posted by Miko at 5:41 AM on November 30, 2011
Wow, what a big day for Mefites Who Geekily Drink, birthdaywise! I'm sad to say I'll be missing it, but here's to continuing the domination of the Tatery Geeks in celebration of their birthdays! posted by ldthomps at 9:08 AM on November 30, 2011
Alas, I have another party at Tommy Doyle's that night. ...What are the odds? posted by smirkette at 1:41 PM on November 30, 2011

I have class once again on Monday, but then it's winter break! So I'll be there for the next one. posted by backseatpilot at 6:12 AM on December 2, 2011
Well, I'm not a trivia regular but I did show up once and I do share a birthday with two regulars. Let me see how the day goes and what my options for getting in and out of Harvard Square are. I'll put myself down for a maybe.
Reddit will be there to sing us Happy Birthday, right? posted by bondcliff at 8:02 PM on December 3, 2011
I'll try to make it again. After all, important things go down at Things! posted by ignignokt at 7:29 AM on December 4, 2011 [1 favorite]
Looking more and more like I'm gonna make it. posted by bondcliff at 12:45 PM on December 5, 2011
I think ignignokt and I are going to be there after all! Plus it's my birthday too! ...in three weeks. posted by Metroid Baby at 1:50 PM on December 5, 2011
Selected categories:
* P.S.
* Two Millennia In Stuff
* Physics For 'Tards (I'm really hoping that's a pun of some kind)
* Movies That Are the Pitts (Sounds like we should brush up on Brangelina movies)
* Chanukah Songs posted by Horace Rumpole at 1:54 PM on December 5, 2011
I'm hoping "Physics For 'Tards" lost an S and will actually be a Doctor Who category. posted by maryr at 2:09 PM on December 5, 2011
I just have to say I was having a pretty crappy day up until this outing, and the (inevitable) Taters sweep was just icing on the (Jessamyn-provided) cake. See you guys next time! posted by Kosh at 7:41 PM on December 5, 2011 [1 favorite]
Yay, thanks for coming Kosh! And thanks to Jessamyn for cake!
I'm using lots of exclamation marks! posted by Horace Rumpole at 7:58 PM on December 5, 2011
I had fun! I might even have to show up at more of these things. Mefites are pretty damn smart.
Thank you for the cake, Jessamyn! Happy (one hour 'till) birthday, maryr and not_on_display!
Winning the quiz was Eleven Taters Tating, who jumped four spots in round eight to claim victory. They were closely followed by Afterbirth Taters, scorers of a perfect round two that they jokered for a whopping 32 points. (The two tater teams were right in front of me, so no they were not cheating. I watched them like a hawk.)
