MeFi IRL

Inquiring minds want to know if the Metafilter Last Supper picture is hanging on the wall at the Goat still. Why don't we check it out and also have a meet-up? [more inside]

Round 2. [more inside]

I've come to realize I'm not the only aimless Brooklyn mefite when it comes to Halloween this year. Perhaps there are more! This is a hybrid meetup, but that's not an option in the drop-down. Movie + drinks! And candy! [more inside]

gingerbeer and I will be in Boston from November 2nd through the 6th. She's there for a conference, I'm there for a nostalgia tour and just to hang out. We'd love to meet up with you. [more inside]

JS Joust! K2! RoboRally! Card games! Board games! Wii U! Many options! All are welcome! [more inside]

We're having Halloween at our house. They block off the street and people seem to come from all over. Everyone's welcome to come over, hand out candy to the throngs of children, drink beer in the front yard, etc. [more inside]

I am touring California visiting every Fosters Freeze. Tomorrow (Sat) I'm road-tripping from SF to Fresno to visit all five in your fine city. [more inside]

This may well be a long shot, but are there enough folks in the Tampa Bay area that a meetup would look like more than just my partner and I hanging out for our usual happy hour? [more inside]

Howdy! Let's make this meet up happen. Someone proposed Central Market and the date of Tuesday, Oct. 29. Whatever we do, I'd like it to be a variation of the usual. This is my first irl post and it will be my first Houston meetup. [more inside]

Fall term is well underway. Who's up for lunch on or near campus? [more inside]

Jenesta and I will be in Manhattan on Friday, November 1, and we'll have a few free hours in the evening. Want to get together for a few drinks?

EDIT: The location has been selected, and it's Perdition in Hell's Kitchen. [more inside]

Since I am going to be in town for several days for a conference, and since one of the AskMe recommended things to do downtown is go to the Majestic Theatre, I have tickets for the symphony on Saturday, November 9. Would anybody be interested in getting together for dinner downtown around 6-ish? Since y'all know the area and I don't, I'm open to suggestions for your favorite places downtown (I will not have a vehicle).

Hi AZ mefites! As I promised in the last Phoenix meetup thread, I'll be visiting Mr. Nat in Tempe next week. I'd like to meet up with y'all while I'm there. [more inside]

MeFi favorite Allie Brosh has a new book coming out. She will be at Powell's Books on Burnside November 2. We should make this a thing! Meet in the Green Room off Burnside around 3:30pm and we'll go from there! [more inside]

Have we not had an NYC dim sum meetup since February 2012?! This shall not stand. Chinatown's The Golden Unicorn has been conducive to good meetups before, but, would people like to try Pacificana in Brooklyn's Chinatown for a change? I went there once with family and thought the dim sum was more varied than Golden Unicorn's, but the wait time for a table can be long. -- EDIT - Manhattan wins this round, for Saturday 11/9 at 11am.

Is it that time again? I think it is - time to schedule another game meetup! [more inside]

I'm going to be in DC on Friday November 1 for a meeting (which just got finally confirmed, even though everyone in the department I contract for has been furloughed recently and so it hasn't had any organizers...) and I'll be staying overnight. Wondering if any mefites want to meet up for dinner and/or drinks? I'm staying in Dupont Circle, but happy to head anywhere. Update: we have added a restaurant venue.

small_ruminant is in our fine state and so we're going to Cockadoodle Pizza Cafe in Bethel to welcome her. Laid back get together, as always. Hope to see many of you! [more inside]

Heading back to the Soda Bar. Mainly because I want to go back to the book store across the street. I am willing to listen to suggestions on this one for location. Date is fixed, Wednesday is Secret Science Club.

Monday is DiscourseMarker's birthday so let's all give her the gift of trivia and meet up for Geeks Who Drink at Tommy Doyle's. (And don't forget the big TaterBration on Saturday 10/26!)

Looks like the 50th anniversary of Dr. Who is at 11:50 a.m. on Saturday, November 23 for us on the west coast. This could be an entertaining start to a potluck/game day. Or maybe some soapmaking for holiday gifts. Whatever strikes the fancy of whoever turns up. [more inside]

Trying to organize a quick meetup for 20-21 October! Calling all Mefites in Rome! [more inside]

Would anyone be interested in attending the Empire Drive-In this Friday, October 18? I think I'm going to go. [more inside]

I'm going to be in Eugene for a philosophy conference and I have a couple of free nights that I'd love to spend with any available mefites. I'll have a rental car so I can travel, within reason. Anybody interested in sharing a meal or beverage with a Pennsylvanian mefite?

What say we have a bookswap-type meet-up? Bring a few good books you're willing to part with, and maybe take some new ones home. Like a clothing swap, but with fewer reasons to undress and, hopefully, no embarrassing stains to explain. [more inside]

Back in Manhattan. [more inside]

Hey everybody, my endearingly enthusiastic, deeply amateurish, punk-styled, oldies-playing, brass and junk percussion marching band is playing at Honk! Fest, Boston's festival of activist street bands. [more inside]

Yeah, November. Because all my weekends are booked until November, which is ridiculous, but anyway...who wants to get a game day in before the holidays? UPDATE: Confirmed for November 10 [more inside]

A themed programme of Spanish science-fiction short films from Nacho Vigalondo (TIMECRIMES, EXTRATERRESTRIAL), Chema García Ibarra, Alex Pastor (CARRIERS), Alberto Gonzalez Vazquez, and Pablo Larcuen. Robots from space, invisible friends, transformations, space-time anomalies, even the end of the world! Come and join us! [more inside]

A rare screening of this amazing film, featuring dancers from the New York City Ballet performing Jerome Robbins' 1958 "ballet in sneakers" in actual New York City locations. Won the Audience Award at SXSW Film Festival. FB RSVP page: https://www.facebook.com/events/331341003668507/ [more inside]

One of our own, armoured-ant aka Antonio Lulic, is doing a North American tour and will be in Washington DC on October 16th. The lovely Coldchef suggested it to me which he sadly cannot attend so I was seeing if any Mefites would like to meet up for dinner and/or drinks beforehand and then attend the show which is free. Antonio's bio page is here and you can check out some of his music here.

Asterix and I will be in London in a couple weeks, and as it happens special-k will also be there. So meetup!! [more inside]

After the rousing and (for some) humiliating success of last month's gaming meet-up, we're doing games at Jeather's place on Sunday, October 20 at 3pm. Memail jeather for details on how to get there. All are welcome!

You, me, and every zombie we know: Terror Behind The Walls @ ESP! [more inside]

This has nothing to do with Rocky Horror, BUT it does have science fiction and double feature goodness. [more inside]

I am flying into DFW for business, and have roughly 4ish hours to burn before moseying on to my final destination... [more inside]

In the style of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and RiffTrax, comedian Matt Filipowicz and I will spend one memorable evening performing Atlas Riffed, a live, second-by-second running commentary on the notoriously awful film adaptation of Ayn Rand's libertarian screed: Atlas Shrugged: Part One. We're going to make one of the worst films ever made actually fun to watch and slowly but surely advance our covert crypto-communist agenda on an unsuspecting public - and I want you to be there. [more inside]

Hi all, I was wondering if people would be up for going to Improv Against Humanity at the Rio this month. [more inside]

Brooklyn meetup - who's in? Zombie Hut, Thursday October 10th. Yes? Yes!
