PAX starts tomorrow and I know whoever is going is probably in town already. I'm meeting up with CntlAltDlt and his grandmother for a drink tonight and we are inviting whoever else would like to come along. Looking right now like the Tap House. The food is meh but there are 160 beers on tap. We are, of course, open to other suggestions close to the convention center.

I don't even OWN a television!

Touché, my friend...

Touché.

Somebody needs to take Delete and his grandma outside Seattle proper while he's here!

They don't have a rental car and I don't have a car, but yes that would be cool.

What's a PAX?

el_dudarino: They don't have a rental car and I don't have a car, but yes that would be cool.

Really? Just because you're a college student or is mass transit pretty good up there? I never got the impression it was.

Bob Falfa: What's a PAX?

Penny Arcade Expo (new window)

That's why you wear condoms.
All I'm gonna say about it.

*shudder*

I never learned how to drive

el_dudarino: I never learned how to drive

Oh now I look like a jerk, sorry. At least mass transit may still suck up there; I need this kind of consistency in my life.

I'm pretty sure that the whole convention is a giant Fark Party.

How exactly does this work...?

thepensivepoet: How exactly does this work...?

Failed the written permit test when I was 15. My girlfriend at the time had a car, as did all my friends. Moved to Seattle at 17, was going to school and couldn't afford a car. Now I'm 25, still can't really afford a car, and don't have the motivation to learn.

Public transit is okay, the OneBusAway web app for my iPhone makes it much better.

Honestly, consider yourself lucky. Well not lucky since you're 25 and can't work a car... but it's nice to live somewhere that you don't have to.

I don't know if I could go without one almost specifically because I use my in-the-car time to practice singing. Without that time I don't know when/where I'd be able to really belt out in privacy without having a proper studio space.

Oooh. Thanks for the advice. Safety first.

Should go back and try getting that permit. I didn't get mine until I was 20. Not that I failed, but I never needed to use a car before I met my girlfriend. Sure, she could drive and had her own car, but I was determined to learn to drive and I'm too old fashioned to let her do so anymore (not that she can't, but she has the road rage).

/I never did understand how people fail the permit test.
//Then again I think the driving age should be upped.

Tatsuhiko: /I never did understand how people fail the permit test.

Didn't study. I was working and making money and my parents said I had to have a B+ average to get a car. Studying wasn't high on my priority list at the time so I figured it was pretty much a moot point.

OH SNAP THIS SH*T JUST GOT REAL

Great, now everyone will know I don't know how to drive :-/

/thanks admins, for real

el_dudarino: Great, now everyone will know I don't know how to drive :-/

Is it time for "haha BALLS" yet?

Well ok then

xanadian: Is it time for "haha BALLS" yet?

I'd go if I were in Seattle...If for no other reason than to hang out with people who can't drive...

cup of tea: I'd go if I were in Seattle...If for no other reason than to hang out with people who can't drive...

We scare easily

el_dudarino: I'm sure I can recreate it for her if that is asked of me.

Heh...what time were you thinking of? I'm gonna be around the convention center from late afternoon until evening sometime anyway.

Okay, I think I'm done now.

thepensivepoet: Okay, I think I'm done now.

It's only fair you post a pic of yourself driving.

I wish I had one of those....My dad tried to teach me to drive at a local high school football stadium that was vacant at the time except the grounds crew.

I ran into a parked equipment trailer going about 5 mph

OMFG LOOK OUT FOR THAT OLD LADY!!1

Killer Cars: Heh...what time were you thinking of? I'm gonna be around the convention center from late afternoon until evening sometime anyway.

Probably around 6 or 7. Haven't heard back from CntlAltDlt today so I don't know what his schedule looks like. Could be earlier. EIP

Killer Cars: Heh...what time were you thinking of? I'm gonna be around the convention center from late afternoon until evening sometime anyway.

err...for a drink, not some hasty recreation of said earlier event.
