Really? You people decide to hold a Fark party one week after I'm of legal drinking age and I'm out of the God-damned country for it?

Can't make it but PLEASE can someone tell me what LGT is?

I keep reading it was GLBT then wonder why the bisexuals are being left out.

Awww I'd love to come but I've got real nerdy roleplaying plans tonight.

Spiffy! I'm working tonight, but my part time gig is just driving people around the Cambridge area. Perhaps I'll be able to stop in for a bite between runs :)

Ask one of the bartenders or the person at reception
(inside the second door just to your left).

Ask for "Keith" or "farkers".

You all have tattoos, right?

Wait...like "Hi, can I join the fark party?" or "Please show me your table for farkers like me." or "Is this the right place to come for Fark?"

But really, I was thinking more in the opposite direction. I'm sure I'll be able to find all of *you*. But will you know which person there is *me*. Jinkies, Scoob.

I went to a SF fark party and quickly learned that asking people "Are you a Farker?" is a bad, bad way to find other farkers.

That's when I learned to ask "Are you a friend of Drew Curtis?"

That worked much better.

Wow I was totally planning on asking the wrong way, good call. I suppose it would have been slightly better than asking "do you fark?"

If you get a chance to see Groovelilly the next time they are in town I highly suggest it.

Last time I was there I believe I was carded at the door, but it's a tuesday night so I'd say there's a 85% chance you'll get in without a problem.

It is a restaurant AND a bar.

There is no Cambridge/MA law against someone underage sitting
at a bar.

There generally is a bouncer out front to prevent underage people from coming in.

You can *probably* get away with saying you are there to eat with friends.

Woo-hoo! Great going Keith! I'm looking forward to it... like I said, can't be too bad tossing back a few drinks and watching the returns come in... unless GWB decides to make this a Junta and cancel Super Tuesday... then it could be bad.... too many ellipses....

This. I work around the corner from the B-Side, but I don't think I have the energy. Have fun guys.

Sounds good, but I have to go to the dentist and get drilled (no, not in the good way).

Have fun, though.

I'm just not "hip" or "cool" or "rich" enough to drink at the B-Side. And I don't have any tattoos. And I think Budweiser is swill. Can't we have it at The Bow and Arrow instead? Or maybe the Boathouse?
 
2008-02-05 03:57:14 PM

uh... hasn't that place been demolished?

The B-side is populated by the anti-cool league.

To both of you, come on out anyway. Worst thing that could happen is that you get bored and leave.

What kind of crowd does a farker party bring? Is it mostly old guys that live in moms basement and post on fark with WEEI on speed dial, or are farkers normal people. I've been wondering this for a while. I'm of the "been lurking for years with the occasional post" variety myself, and have never ventured out to one. I usually work at night though, so this could be a good opportunity.

Is there going to be another Boston Fark party if/when Drew comes to ROFLcon at the end of April?
 
2008-02-05 05:32:55 PM
Didn't get much sleep last night so I'm tired, but I'm tempted because I just moved to Boston last month and don't know a lot of people yet. I don't post much and I'm not even a total farker, but I've been checking out the site for at least 4 years now. Never been to a fark party or any other kind of internet thingamajigger. Like the Democrat primary, I'm so undecided...
 
2008-02-05 05:34:46 PM
One more thing, do a lot of you know each other already?
 
2008-02-05 05:36:44 PM
So I've been lurking here for about six years, didn't post until about a year and a half ago, and I've never been to a Fark party. That said, this is Super Tuesday, and Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras... Super FatTuesday??) and that is a great bar with good food and good drinks. I think I may make it there.

Probably closer to 8 than 7... I've got to get all this clown blood off me first.
 
2008-02-05 05:42:16 PM
