MeTa post: Bawlmer with or without Boh
Ah, yes, Three.... In the words of the City Paper, possibly the word's hardest-to-Google restaurant.

I could definitely go for a meet-up, assuming I'm free. That said, for entirely selfish reasons I think I'll propose holding it at Piratz Tavern in Silver Spring. I'm still pissed that I missed the last one, you see.

MeTa post: Oh shit, it's a walk-off!
I'm going to say B-- it reads more naturally to me.

We need to get some Q, Y and Z tags in there. Seriously, nobody has questions about Quebec, Yahtzee or zoologists?

Is there anyone in or near Baltimore who would like, and would be willing to haul, an old and beat-up but still functioning electric treadmill?

Sadly we've lost our chance for a Matthauian candidate. (A MattHaugheyian candidate, on the other hand...)

MeTa post: Yes, it looks a bit funny
Frankly, I blame the researchers. Compare these two scenarios.

Scenario A: "Experiments indicate that regular exposure to infrared radiation may slow, stop or even reverse the progress of Alzheimer's disease, and we will begin studies on human subjects soon."

Scenario B: "HAY GUYZ I HAS A HELMET!"

For whatever reason, our researchers neglected to identify the intrinsic humor value of helmets, and thus... [more]

GODS DAMMIT! If you're going to have a meetup at Piratz Tavern, will someone please notify me? I completely missed this whole thread, and didn't find out about it until Dallas (the bartender) told me last night.

I sent off my gift, and the postal service reports its successful delivery. I hope it is enjoyed by its recipient, whose MeFi history told me very little about them. I'm looking forward to whatever shows up here.

Yeah, it was a bit of a bust as meetups go, but the four of us had a nice chat and some good food.

For years I thought that "brisket" was actually spelled "briscuit." Weird, huh?

Q: Why should I listen to you? A: I hate people who know where to get anyone's hopes up.

Excuse me? Mortal Kombat 3.

Pretty much, yeah, depending on which the host meets Jimmy Doohan, and then implementation the final time they battled. You're absolutely right. I saw a baby-changing station in a walrus suit, and his doctors agree, then it's time to express my opinions about Deathly Hallows now?

Goddamn furries.

MeTa post: Scurvy of Butt!
Aye, the dogs at the Washington Post can't even do me the favor of spellin' me name right. There's a keelhauling in store for 'em, there is. 'Tis an honor nonetheless, though. O'course, I ne'er could have done it without the rest o' me crew.

As for the rest o' ye, hearken to me now: If e'er a MeFite shows his face at Piratz Tavern on a night when I be carousin', his grog'll be on me! By which I mean both that I'll buy him a drink, and that he'll probably spill said drink... [more]

Indeed, Mike did lose the eye to the tip of a sword. Just over a year ago, it was. The sword itself is named "Blinky" now.

And peculiarly enough, I never knew that Dallas was also a paralegal.

Wow. That was really weird. I'm glad it was promptly deleted, but I'd actually hold off on the banhammer until some investigation is done. I'm thinking either hijacked account or medication failure.

That wasn't addressed to the MeFite by that handle. It was actually a request for someone to start playing Skynyrd. I thought this thread was an appropriate place to do it.

SCDB's comment was rude, offensive, uncalled-for, off-topic and derailing. It should be deleted for all these reasons.

Regrettably, the comment was not untrue.

I'm just wondering if 40 Watt's friend's first language is English. The photo captions seem to imply that it isn't. Perhaps he's wittier in his native tongue.
