Oh shit, it's a walk-off!
barnacles always starts with 'B', and it will grow better as popular tags are added to the list, and would be more conducive to smaller displays and phone screens and the like.

Canberra Meetup
15th or 16th is fine by me, I'm pretty flexible.

So what if we go for Sunday the 16th? That way we can put it up on the sidebar on MetaTalk. Folks often tend to have other plans for Saturdays, but a nice lazy Sunday afternoon or evening might work, eh?

Your idea of somewhere central-ish is a good one. I'm North of the lake, so I'm more partial to someplace like Wig and Pen if we're going near Civic. I'm not as familiar with Manuka or Kingston, though there are nice pubs down that way too. I reckon outdoors + good beer is key here!
I'll at least throw it now on the sidebar of MetaTalk so perhaps others will see.

Afternoon, night, morning, noon. I'm extremely flexible when it comes to Sundays.

Sounds good to me. I can aim to be there by 1400, and grab a table with a few chairs outside. And maybe even a little handwritten thing that reads "MeFi?" or whatnot.

Oh, and if anyone has a little digital camera to bring along to prove that Canberra knows how to get down and boogie, MeFi style, please to bring it. I lack such devices.

Whoa, there, sarcastic cowboy! It turned out all-right. dhruva showed up briefly to say hi -- and then appeared in Sydney, I see! -- and so dangerousdan and I enjoyed the finest microbrews Canberratown has to offer for a few hours. Good times!

Hehheh, no worries tellurian. I left out my own emoticon, so, belatedly: :)
A repeat meetup within 15 days might not be doable, dhruva. dangerousdan and I were discussing trying to force another in Sydney in a few months when we would be in the area, though!

Learning to resist the dismiss
I, for one, cannot stomach anyone taking the piss out of Australians in threads. Which is why I came down under in order to do it to their faces.
... and frankly, they kinda seem to like it.

Sydney meet-up
I was going to crash the Canberra meetup, but this is better. Count me in for Sunday.
I'm just going to go cry in the corner now ...

Is that just a roundabout way of saying you wish you could be here?

23: One Year Down
I found the timezone part of this one appropriate, as I downloaded the podcast to keep me awake until 3 AM, so that a post on the green would be seen by Californians first thing in their morning. Eerie timing! Maybe not so eerie as the Dyatlov business, but I'll take what I can get (and keep my tongue, thankyou).

Taking the Denver Meetup North.
A vote for the 22nd (disregard profile location; I'm from the Centennial state and will be back for the holidays).

I'm still aiming to be there, too.

That was a great time, I'm very glad I made it down there! Good beer and good conversation, what more does anyone need? Now I need to maybe think about making some FPPs, if I can just remember all the subjects we talked about ...
Great photos, both of you!

Possibly, Secret Santa
I've never been in a position to take part in a Secret Santa event, and if this can fill that gaping void in my soul, then yes. Yes, I want.

That was a rhetorical question, boys
Well, I'd forgotten about that thread so at least this post -- while not really making much sense to me ... -- pointed me to a new comment that was interesting. And if you check, UH, you'll see that alicesshoe has used '¿' a shit-ton of times in their posting history. ?Is that not cool¿
