I'm going to be in Seoul on October 6th 7th (Sunday) and I'd love to meet up with all the phenomenal mefites here in SK. [more inside]

Previously in trivia: It was close all the way to the end, but "Dubstep is Robot Farts" wound up in 6th place. Come to the Maple Leaf and help us get back into medal territory! Come early to grab a good table (steak's served at 7), trivia starts at 8.

Maybe there was one already but I just missed it since I haven't been checking the irl page, but if we haven't already done so I'd like to propose a meetup for the month of September. Let's try not to give up too early on the monthly meetup idea. Even if we end up doing it in early October or something we can count it for September.

Kattullus and myself both happen to be in London for the weekend. There's already a full-packed Saturday plan, but for those who can't make it or know they won't be able to get enough MeFites IRL, come join us on Friday! We are planning on meeting outside the Wellcome Collection at 1pm, to check out the Superhuman exhibit. Food and drink will likely happen afterwards. [more inside]

At the last trivia gathering there was talk about a repeat this week, as Jacalata is back in town again. So who's in?

A one-day exhibition of local independent cartoonists. Free Admission.

Time to meet, discuss, and solve world problems. Political discussion a must, science discussion a must, knitting discussion is optional.

98.1034 Bottles of Beer on the Wall provides drunken encounters with compulsive systems. A program continually preens itself, inserting lines of code to change its visual representation, but along the way, introducing glitches and new patterns of behavior. A therapist program tries to dispense advice as her logic slowly breaks down. Sound editing software turns simple geometric shapes into hallucinatory landscapes. Photoshop generates intricate patterns in an attempt to hide visual compression. A book displays the abuses and absurdities of the DNS system, an addressing apparatus that has seemingly exhausted meaningful combinations of English words. [more inside]

Let's have another dog meetup. Same time, same place works for me. Let me know if it does for you.

It's been a week. The 4th Ave Pub. Not really sure what a declarative sentence is. English education woefully lacking.

OCTOBER 10th, Tired Hands! Hello, Main Line! Well, Jessypie has been doing an amazing job organizing meetups in Philly, but I know I'm not the only one out here on the ol' R5. So I propose a meetup for the suburban amongst us! Ardmore can now boast of its own microbrewery, Tired Hands, which offers artisanal beer and cheeses and other nice things. Are other MeFis into these things? [more inside]

Don't forget about Taters. Meet us at Tommy Doyle's for Geeks Who Drink trivia, this Monday night.

The one and only hip hop debate, where we argue the pro's and the con's til the break-a break-a dawn. Watch freestylers take your suggestions and debate the relative merits of time travel, zoos, Cats: The Musical, and anything else you can think of. I'll personally be laying down the beats. And you... you can jump up on stage with us and take a shot at the crown! [more inside]

October 3rd is both the first Wednesday in October (GOATUP!) and the first presidential debate of the season. [more inside]

Based on the quick chat over yonder, it looks like Bar Tonique is a good fit for at least, well, three of us. Who's in? NOW WITH FEWER COMPETING PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES.

Hey guys, I am new to the area, and was wondering if there were any MeFites in the Columbia, SC area? I'd be really interested in meeting anyone in the area, as I have attended multiple meetups in other cities and have found them to be genuinely awesome. Any feedback would be appreciated!

Let's meet up and have a beer! [more inside]

So I'm going to be in NYC for a couple of days in October, and I would love to meet some of you crazy cats in person. I know you guys have a lot (a lot!) of meetups - would you be up for one more? [more inside]

I moved up to Greenpoint a few weeks ago, and was really eager to explore my new neighborhood, preferably in the company of a few MeFites. So, I decided to hold a meetup there. NOTE: this will also be the weekly Brooklyn meetup this week. [more inside]

What is popcorn? What is dinner? What is Part II? What does it all mean? How awesome is the 4th Ave Pub? And why is this description entirely composed of questions?

I will be working at the NYC Honey Festival at the Rockaway Beach Boardwalk this Saturday. It just occurred to me to post it here. Come take advantage of one of the few remaining nice Saturdays of 2012! And get free samples of local honey, and drink locally-brewed beer with honey in it, and check out a honey extraction and glassed-in observation hive! And probably listen to me geek out about varroa mite mitigation techniques!

Previously in trivia: "Hurricane Isaac Hayes Goes Down Smooooth" and "Legitimate Team Name" faced some tough competition and placed fifth and sixth. Not bad... and so many people! Can we do better? Yes we can! It's Thursday night at the Maple Leaf Pub. Steak and the best table at 7, trivia at 8. Sorry for the late notice...

This week's meetup completely slipped my mind. Perhaps all those Cosmonauts gave me Space Amnesia. No fear, faithful friends (and new friends to be!), the meetups continue at the ever-lovely 4th Ave Pub next Wednesday Thursday, the 13th. See you there!

You might have seen the post about the ENCODE project. grouse was on that giant project of multi-team, collaborative, awesomeness. Any other project participants welcome to hit me up for a beer too! And anyway, we haven't had a meetup in a while (that I've actually gone to) so this may just be an excuse to have a meetup. [more inside]

valkyryn and I will be in New York from October 11 - 14 for New York Comic Con. We are giving a panel talk on October 12 at 5pm (related IRL post), but we would also like to meet up outside the convention. Lets' meet up at Lillie's Time Square on the 13th.

This is a google map of the day.

Original post: I'll be in London from 27 Sept (Thursday) - 1 Oct (Monday), mostly at the London International Tattoo Convention. I'm open to doing and seeing other things as well...schedule is fairly open. At the very least, let's do a meetup. And if anybody would like to join me at the convention, that'd be great too.
