Sat November 12 at 4:30 PM, The Owl Farm
297 9th St, Brooklyn, NY, USA (Map & Directions)
Not sure what to say at this juncture in history, but I'd like to suggest a meetup, since I could use a drink or three. Join me and we can talk about the election, or not.
I'm suggesting 4:30 PM on Saturday, November 12, at the Owl Farm in Park Slope, but can change date, time, and/or location if there's enough support for something else, provided there's good beer.

Can also bring some low-key board games if there's interest.

I could use some drinks with internet folk, and I'd be up for low-key board games.

I'm afraid I'll be sheetrocking a ceiling that day; playing a board game of another color. See you all next apocalypse?

Tempting. I gotta come from Queens, so I'd say pencil me in.

I've never been to a meetup but have wanted to. Now seems like a better time than ever to drink with nice internet people and play board games. I am going to try to make it.

Yay, elvissa, hope you can make it!

I'm confirming the event now since it seems like it'll work for at least some of you.

For those who might not be able to come, I'd be happy to post a meetup on a different day/in a different borough soon if there's interest. Or of course you can do it yourself, and I will do my best to show up!

Aaaargh, wish I could make it! But I have a rehearsal that day until 5 in Manhattan. Have fun!

holborne, I'm sure we'll be there for quite a while if you want to come on down. 4:30's a little early, I know, and I bet a bunch of people will show up later. I mostly just want to get there early myself to nab a table for the internet.

Ok, I'll try to come down then!

We will be up in the mountains, but hopefully next time! I need a big group hug.

I'm probably gonna make it closer to 6 if that's ok?

For sure, schadenfrau!

For those of you who don't know me, I will be wearing a Mefi shirt for ease of identification.

Getting on the PATH train now, be there within an hour or so, hopefully.
