stupid question: What the fuck is gathering?

Post by Paladin »

being relatively new to the board, I would just like to ask, and then duck for fear of being pelted with incestually bred horny toads.

Oh, christ. Is it that hard for people to look up and click on the link in the upper-left corner??? We all know that Evan doesn't click on links because he's just plain weird. What's up with everyone else?

Cash ... try and remember that some of us have images turned off? I don't normally see that.

I've got them turned on right now, but I'm making an exception today so I can see the bar tab in another thread ;)

<ThatCash> someone just asked what the Gathering was. the blind and clueless doth invade
<eva|wrk> Where?
<ThatCash> SST....hang on
<eva|wrk> 'RTFM, bitch' seems suitable.
<ThatCash> http://www.bulldrek.com/viewtopic.php?t=515&view=next
<eva|wrk> RTFAQ maybe.
<ThatCash> I fed him that line
<Maelwys> RTFFAQ :)
One time I built a matter transporter, but things got screwed up (long story, lol) and I ended up turning into a kind of half-human, half-housefly monstrosity.

I thought the Gathering was where we make a working model of the Cazpit for all newcomers.

Siriously, the London Weekend was Twisted Sister and Deev deciding to come over (and draging Jestyr, kicking and screaming, with them). The Gathering is going to be larger, much larger, and include Americans *shudder* ;)

There are some nuns coming? (Sorry, poor joke.) Fear not, if there are any we can set Deev on them. :lol

If you used [stripped], images on or off, it wouldn't matter. There's the little text links, you know?

It's the alcohol I haven't yet recovered. No, don't point out I was sober on Sunday when I got up at 9.30, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. ;)

Cash: I'll think about The Gathering. I /may/ come. Which is better than the 'probably not' I gave when asked on Saturday by Wild.. er Jestyr :p

Mental picture here of Wildfire, reading SST, and wondering where the fuck she really was on the weekend. Checking the bank account for missing money, checking the clothes for the manky bar-style beer and cigarettes smell, checking the head for hangover...

Although it occurs to me that it would have been fun try and make you think you'd been there with Memory and Harley and I and just didn't remember it...

If you can't hack "cruel and unusual" you shouldn't be hanging around this place.
