Sup with them nuggets?
If there’s a gaming session tomorrow, I’ll bring 50 or so McNuggets. Maybe more, depending on the projected number of attendees. I hope the snow didn’t kill Brian. He’s half Chinese, and half Korean. So the Chinese half will force him to go to work no matter what the conditions are, and the Korean half will force him to drive 30+ mph above the speed limit. Without him, I’d have to drive myself. Ick.
I don’t see how anyone could make it to my place tomorrow. Especially if it snows even more. Even if you can get on the main roads, they are all backed up with massive traffic. Shit is terrible.
Keith, feel free to come over with 50 mcnuggets though. I am sure we can find something to do with them.
Well, that all depends on whether Brian wants to drive. If he’s down, I’m down. Is this an offer, Pablo? If it is, I’ll call Brian and see what’s up.
I was reading the annual obits section of Newsweek just now. Sigh, I feel old. Mainly because I was chatting with a few older friends about some of the names, and they didn’t recognize about 50% of the names. And I knew just about all of them.
You know you’re old when you’re watching a movie with a date, and you say, “Hey, that’s ____, doesn’t s/he look young? S/he’s dead now, you know.”
I know for a fact that Brian will not drive. No need to call him. I am leaving my place in the evening anyway. I know you have been getting around somehow Keith, bring Dann with you and we can have a small, yet intimate session. Slight homo on that one.
Nothing slight about the association between dann and homo. But if you’re busy in the evening, we’ll aim for another time.
I wouldn’t be able to make it until after Christmas. What’s with the chat through srk only? Sup with that AIM?
Is the crew down for Tuesday? I will be drunk Wednesday, so that is out of the question.
I work on tuesday, but I don’t remember what time.
I think I get out before 9 though
I’m down
I have off Tue-1/6. My social is on the 1st.
I will try to make it, Pablo.
Should I bring anything?
Want to show. Will call Brian later today and see what’s up. I make it rain–McNuggets.
I have beer, but low on silver bullets. I really need to stop drinking, at least until new years.
Keith,
Brian MA and Dann are down. Call him later today.
Don’t think I can make it to this one. I will try to be at the next one though.
I get off work at 2:15 tomorrow, shit’s going down.
Brian and I will roll by when he gets off of work. When can we show up? Would 5:30 or so be good? When I last talked to Brian, he didn’t know dann’s plans.
I’ve been considering how to get more pumped up for games. Money matches are pointless to me. Push-up matches have been empty since the time dann refused to pay up after losing. Since you are a wrestling fan–and because I just watched the Mickey Rourke film–I wanted to throw some ideas by you. So, I’ve been considering one of two things:
-
Head shaving match. In the tradition of Brutus the Barber Beefcake, loser has to shave his head. This will work better if my opponent is white. When an Asian/Latino/black dude shaves his head, it can be seen as clean cut. When a white guy shaves his head, he’s making a statement about how he sees the world.
-
Retirement match. When someone in pro-wrestling wants to quit the biz or simply take a break, they are featured in a retirement match. The loser is forced to leave the show. But they are free to sign with an alternate promotions company, or just come back after 2 years. The same applies here, loser has to stop playing and/or leave the scene.
It’s been over a year since my last MM against Kuenai. Think he’ll take me up on this? I’d challenge other local heels, but most of those guys only seem to play ST, and I don’t want to lower myself to that level. I wanna go out in a blaze of glory, not a subdued whimper. But a heel/heel match would be interesting from a promotional standpoint.
Nice post Keith, I dig your style. But you already knew that.
Hair vs Hair matches would be pretty fucking interesting, considering how hyped certain matches can be. It has worked for the circus known as lucha libre since fucking forever, why not marvel? I would do it, but only if I can get a mohawk out of the deal. I think that would look even more ridiculous, and force me into an MMA career much sooner. I mean shit, why wouldn’t I have a bad ass diet, run 7 miles a day, do 500 handstand push ups, all before breakfast when walking around with the most legit bad ass hairstyle of all time. I could make it work. Maybe I am way too egotistical and narcissitc for my own good. Is it wrong that I like Zangief’s hairstyle that much? I would probably look like a guido neo nazi. I’ll think about it.
I would hate to do a retirement match. Maybe for a game I don’t enjoy much like SFIV, but not marvel. You may as well goad me into giving up women, coors light, gwop, and reruns of Man vs. Wild on the Discovery channel. This reminds me of that Michael Bolton song which asks, how can we be lovers if we can’t be friends? You need all the pieces of the puzzle.
It would be funny to categorize us within the scope of heels and babyfaces. Julius would be a monster heel. I can see him doing promos in dark broiler room somewhere hanging upside down from the ceiling. I would prefer to be a tweener. Love me or hate me, I get down for the crown.
Nooooooooo, not Man vs Wild reruns!
Okay, who’s showing up? More importantly, when? I ask because I plan on buying large quantities of McNuggets. I think Brian and I will drop in between 5:30 and 6PM. So if people won’t be appearing until 9PM, I’ll wait until a late night run to buy them. Stiff ass cold nuggets are about as enjoyable as a gaming session without Marvel.
Fuck that man I’ll be hungry by 5:30. We got this.
