The Return of the D.C. Gathering Thread!

[Guest Incandenza]

I knew there was doubt! I'm still wary, by the way. My car's been making funny noises as of late, but this IS my last chance to see Kinetic before he runs off with the military. Argh, this sucks.

[Guest Kinetic]

Take it to the shop or just risk it, man. You're a vital cog in the machinery of this trip. I'd still go if you didn't but I wouldn't enjoy it as much. Mostly for booze-related issues.

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

Kinetic, there will be other people of age there, worry not about that part.

 

I didn't know about the car. You really want to get that checked out, even if you don't come.

 

Fo sheez,

Kotzenjunge

[Guest Incandenza]

I can easily get it checked out, but I wouldn't be able to go afterwards. As for what's wrong with it, I keep hearing this loud screech from the right side of the vehicle everytime I brake for an extended period of time (like at stop lights or speed bumps).

[Guest Sassquatch]

Actually Kotz, I do read your TE3 recaps on a consistent basis.

 

The other articles I have read on a more consistent basis have been Dr.Tom's Smackdown recaps along with his News Updates. I have also read Dames' NWA: TNA recaps. And of course I read my buddy Brandon's Shoot Tape reviews.

 

Everything else I read on a sporadic basis but the articles I listed above I will normally read if I see them up.

[Guest Julio Fantastico]

I can supply the booze... but I don't know how you'll take it away from me.

[Guest Kinetic]

We'll wait until you're asleep and then beat you with pillowcases full of doorknobs.

[Guest Julio Fantastico]

I doubt Kotz will let me sleep though.

[Metal Ed 0]

Hope y'all haven't counted Metal Ed out of all this shit yet, since it looks like my arraignment ain't gonna be until after New Years. If you got a problem with that Kotz dude, Julio, I can take him out for you. Like, a skull-crackin or a stair-pushin or whatever you want. I ain't racist neither, so I ain't got no problem with taking money from a Mexican. Long as you don't try to get me to listen to no fuckin Tejano music.

[Guest Sassquatch]

I feel so blessed getting to read a Metal Ed~! post.

 

I missed the Metal Ed craze from a couple months back.

 

[Guest Kinetic]

It wasn't much of craze, as I recall. A mild panic, if anything. As was the case with Guy Stokes, people seemed to take the greatest interest in attempting to out the poster behind the gimmick. And as there's only one guy here funny and dynamic enough to create Metal Ed, it didn't take them long to figure it out.

[Guest Sassquatch]

I don't know who Metal Ed is and I will let him/her continue to hide behind the screen name (which is very enjoyable).

[Guest Kotzenjunge]

I doubt Kotz will let me sleep though.

Um, what? Will I be the one with the sack of doorknobs or something?

 

Fo sheez,

Kotzenjunge

[Guest Sassquatch]

"You'll have to find your own doorknobs."

 

- Homer

 

 

Homer's band of vigilantes was a funny episode.

 

But Kotz and a bag full of doorknobs could be lethal.

[Guest Big Poppa Popick]

so who's still in, and whats the time frame?

[Guest Sassquatch]

I recall December 26 - 29 being the days for the trip.

[Guest DrTom]

I'm still in. It's the Thursday-Sunday after Xmas.

[Guest Kinetic]

I'm still in, along with Kotz. Incandenza is still on the fence, last I heard.

[Guest Incandenza]

When's the very latest I can give an absolute answer? I want to go, but circumstances appear to be conspiring against me.

[Guest Julio Fantastico]

Has there been any actual planning for this trip yet?

[Guest Incandenza]

Good question. Wouldn't it help to reserve these rooms well ahead of time?

[Guest Flyboy]

Wouldn't it help to reserve these rooms well ahead of time?

*points to Priceline.com*

[Guest Kinetic]

All right, that shouldn't be too difficult. What else should we take care of beforehand?

[Guest Incandenza]

Those that are going on the trip, will we be required to call Leena "Julio"?

[Guest Sassquatch]

I take it Julio is Leena?

 

If she was allowed back into the Smarts then more power to her. If not then I suggest she be banned again because a ban is a ban. It should mean something rather than just be a timeout for posters who were bad.

[Guest Incandenza]

I really don't care. She's behaving herself, so whatever.

[Guest Sassquatch]

Then why ban people if they will be allowed to come back after a certain amount of time?

 

Just get rid of bans then.

 

I do believe in bans having staying power because if the person was banned in the first place then 9 times out of 10 they did something to deserve being banned.

[Guest Incandenza]

I hear what you're saying, and I agree with you. I just have no urge to run to a mod and have something done about it.

[Guest Flyboy]

What else should we take care of beforehand?

Hotel rooms... rent-a-car, and... some good attraction for D.C.

 

Don't want to be on a trip talking in a hotel room the entire time.

[Guest Sassquatch]

I never said that someone should go run off and tell a mod/admin.

 

More than likely a mod/admin has already been alerted but if not then no big deal. I'm just saying that *if* Julio is Leena then she should be banned again when the mods/admins do find the time to look at the situation.

 

Carry on.
