Hey guys, I was just thinking how great it would be if, once a month or so, we could have some kind of goon meet based around food. What I'm thinking is that we try our best to hit every unique, fun, reasonably priced eatery in NYC. Or at least most of them! smile

If there is interest in this project, I'd be happy to act as a kind of facilitator, making needed reservations, giving directions, etc. Here's what I am proposing:

Every month, say around the 15th or so, we'll open the thread up for suggestions. Feel free to suggest anywhere you've been or would like to go, and also feel free to jump in and give your opinion on places you may have visited. After a week or so, we'll come to a consensus, I'll make the reservations, and we'll all enjoy some good old fashioned goonery in some of New York's finest eating establishments.

Here are the rules I propose: Come hungry! Seriously, I'd like to keep this as low-key and casual as possible. We're all adults here, so I think we can trust each other to dress appropriately, act respectfully, etc. After all, we're not children! Eating out with friends should be fun, not a chore!

So, if anyone in the NYC area (or out-of-town goons visiting) would be interested in participating, just post here and let me know, and, if the interest is there, I'd be happy to get things set up. Happy eating!

Two goons already confirmed for CASUAL Sa Eatz meet!

It would be great if they went to a Benihana and he blew his horn, startled the chef, and got a cleaver to the jugular.

Surely, some goon would have a katana to defend his honor but only after having seconds. Also the goon, realizing he can break the no sampling other people's food rule, asks the corpse, "ya gonna finish that?".

But man wow. That thread. That guy. Wow. "I will order you a starter and YOU will pay for it."

MY FRIEND HERE WILL HAVE THE CHING CHONG CHO WITH THE PING POO SAUCE

Wait a second, I'm allergic to--

EXCUSE ME, I'M PLACING YOUR ORDER

Seriously, I need to know if it contains any--

HONNNNNNNK
EXCUSE THE INTERRUPTION GARCON, WHERE WERE WE

I just noticed that this is the second thread about something like this. I'll be in NY with friends in mid-june so I was hoping to partake in an activity like this. I know nothing about NY but I do like to try new things, especially cuisuine.

The other thread honestly freaked me out with it's rules and whatnot so I'm hoping this one will be a little more relaxed.

Again, it's me and 3 other friends. Apparently aince they're not goons they can't come as per the other thread

what's the point of not sharing food, that's gay as hell. with so many people you could potentially try the majority of things a restaurant has to offer in one sitting but admiral stiffcock demands discipline aboard the good ship Fatgoon and will use an airhorn to cow you into submission. it's hard not to imagine him as a lisping r lee ermey screeching at people for violating his directives while he considers what epic burns he's going to deliver them on the forums

When non-goons crash the meet, fucked up shit happens like people's bags disappearing and eating with people who won't talk to you, among just the uncomfortableness of eating with a total stranger who has no real reason to be eating with you.

Because I said the meet was for people who want to meet during the week. If y'all want a separate event on the weekends you don't see me saying you can't, can you?

You missed the part where I will eventually sit next to you and ask why you're not mingling.

Another person who doesn't read all of the thread..

The 18,000 bullets are each derived from something that happened at one of the meets. It's a learning experience, and I still expect to add more bullets.

Also, they're not ironclad rules.. some have been suspended on occasion.. it's intended to be a microcosm of the way the forums work.

The Hall of Lame.. people might bag on that, but it does have a purpose, as again, it's intended to parallel the Leper's Colony.

Either way Queezy, have fun with your meet, even if it looks and sounds amazingly like another thread.

It's amazing, it's like the revenge of the soup-eating lurkers. Tell you what guys, YOU try having a meet where people just eat and go home. You just don't get the bullets.. I even said they were GUIDELINES.

If you had ever actually gotten away from perfecting your pasty monitor tans and actually come to a meet, the first thing I'd tell you is that they're not rules, and they're meant to keep assholes from showing up, and not to pay them any mind unless you're there to ruin the meet. Granted they still do..

LOL at the gook getting homotional over his stupid youtub vids.

"Ching-Chong .Oh gorry dey notice my rixation on honolabrr idian girfren' I take toobs 'way. Ling-Long Bing-Bong"

For real though: Who could sit through a meal with these fucking freaks and their 10,000 stupid rules for eating nachos and shit? Who could resist the compulsion to punch that gook right in his fucking crustache the moment he blashted the airhorn in an restaurant?

Qweezy's right, there's no need to keep up this thread. Go to his meet. Thanks to all who participated in Eats, see you around.

HA HA HA HA HA. Dude was great at handing out iceburns and shaming people back into lurking for dissing his precious little meets, but he's not so fond of being on the receiving end of any. I can only imagine how potent his tears of rage were this morning when he realized he was about to lose the only place he ever wielded any control; a thread on the something awful forms.

Qweezy, if you are really trying to get people together, then good for you and have fun. If you're trying to stir up some kind of drama with the other NYC organized eats thread, feel free to close this one.

Everyone else, settle down, and get back to the topic of planning this meet up, instead of Binary Badger's rules in the other thread. THANKS
