Title: Philadelphia, May 2009!
Post by: taiko on May 29, 2009, 12:14:18 PM
Okay!

I'm getting packed, dropping my dog off with my parents, dropping some movies off with tonsil-free Sasha, and then heading to the airport!

Philadelphia, here I come!

Things I look forward to doing:
Calling "Detroit" by other city names
Tasting Krapsna's "awesome" BBQ
Talking about music
Playing Risk
Having that pizza that I loved so much last time
Using my modded PSP on the flight!

I'll be disconnected for 3 days.  Nick, I'm putting you in charge of defending my honor during this time.

Pictures will be posted later!

Hey guys, thanks for coming down. It was fun for me to host and serve you BBQ. Lucas was very kind, he pretended to like the ribs so much he ate like a whole rack of them just to make me feel good! I totally forgot that Leah had bought some deserts though!

Sadly, my responsibilities that weekend didn't permit a trip to the Trestle. It's been a long time since I've been there, and I think allowing Lucas to visit Philly again without taking him to the Trestle would be unforgiveable.

What are you talking about??? Mello would NEVER shit talk anyone! She's such a genuine and sweet person. :D

Post by: taiko on June 02, 2009, 09:53:49 AM
I'm getting packed, dropping my dog off with my parents, dropping some movies off with tonsil-free Sasha, and then heading to the airport!

Pre-flight information:  all of these things happened without incident.

While I was visiting Sasha, though, her mom showed me a lot of family photos and stuff.  It was so awesome!
Since she can't talk very loud, when her mom started showing me the pictures, all she could do was grumble, Charlie Brown style!

On another note:  I'm never taking Sasha to where my parents live, just so I don't have to suffer through the same kind of thing.

Friday

Things I look forward to doing:
Calling "Detroit" by other city names
Tasting Krapsna's "awesome" BBQ
Talking about music
Playing Risk
Having that pizza that I loved so much last time
Using my modded PSP on the flight!

When I first arrived, I conveniently walked out and Geek was waiting with Detroit in the car.  I introduced myself, and Mello made sure to call him Detroit.  I then made sure to call him San Francisco.
Geek complained that he had no similarities with THAT city.  So I called him San Juan, and then Tulsa.  Eventually, everyone got the joke, and we drove back into town.

We got to the Geek house, where I was permitted to deposit my things in the basement (which would also be my accomodations).  I was given a tiny couch to sleep on, and told not to put anything on the very expensive couch unless absolutely necessary.  Normally, the couch was reserved for her very expensive cello, because she was concerned about flooding.  I recommended that she could try using the normal chair, or ask Aaron to build something for her when he's down in a few weeks.  I imagine a cello stand would probably cost about $5 worth of lumber, and 1 hour of time.

Also, the couch actually wasn't that small length-wise (I could just fit, head to toe, between the armrests - pretty impressive for a tall dude), but it was definitely a couch intended for sitting upon, not sleeping.  The width had me sleeping my on side most of the night.

Mello had been talking about how tired she was for most of the drive to her house, but suddenly my arrival had her all fired up.  (Apparently, she had promised Detroit some sex after picking me up, and he was a little disappointed that we were going to drive around town instead.  I only learned about this later!)  So, we go down the street to get a cheesesteak.  It was pretty good, but I like the cheesesteaks in Austin more than Tony Luke's.

While at the cheesesteak place, we talk about Detroit a little, and me a little (I'm a man of science!), and a few other disgusting things.  This is where I start delivering burns on Mello; Detroit is a little unsure of what to do, but he also finds this all humorous.  So, he eventually decides it's okay to laugh at my jokes.  Mello tells him that he should be doing more to defend her, since they're bf/gf.

Having finished our cheesesteaks in relative peace, we head out to see Gino's.  This is around the time that I learned that Detroit was supposed to be getting some rude sex instead of driving me around Philly at midnight.  Also, this is around the time that Detroit decides to try to deliver a burn on Mello.  She gets a little butthurt from it, and I tell Detroit "dude, that's not a really nice thing to say about Mello."  Then, I let him know that's how you defend a girlfriend.

When I realized that she wanted me to go to that trendy, tourist cheesesteak place, I told Detroit to turn that shit around and head home.  I hope he got laid that night, for all his dedicated driving.

(Saturday coming soon!)

Tricky, shut the fuck up already. Your act is old and tired. You're starting to look pathetic.

Post by: FAH-Q on June 02, 2009, 05:32:26 PM
You obviously don't weigh very much. Every air mattress I've slept on has been really hot (since it can't "breathe") and they never seem to be particularly well inflated, or at least won't stay that way.
Title: Re: Philadelphia, May 2009!
Post by: Nitya on June 02, 2009, 05:36:01 PM
Probably.

Couches are just awkward though. I'd rather sleep on the floor.
Title: Re: Philadelphia, May 2009!
Post by: The Geek on June 02, 2009, 06:43:06 PM
tricky, again. You are fucking boring.

My air mattress isn't the best, sadly.and if TWO people sleep on it and one person is heavier... you wind up rolling on top of them. Which is great when you're trying to hit, but terrible when youre trying to sleep

You've really started taking yourself too seriously since I first met you, and you're not very good at being the butt of any joke.

Well, that's it everyone.  Geek made this not fun for me by totally over-reacting.  I'm certainly not going to have fun typing out the rest of this trip, now.

Saturday:
Working on the house
Driving In the Car
BBQing with Krsna
Advice from Krsna
Gaming with Krsna's Kids
Driving in another Car
Talking about Music
Meeting people
Eating Pizza

Sunday:
More Music talk
To the airport

The PSP gave me over 9 hours of Final Fantasy 9 game-time.  I think that's pretty outstanding, for something so small and portable.

You've really started taking yourself too seriously since I first met you, and you're not very good at being the butt of any joke.

eitje, if this was some kind of joke, I surely don't get it. I'm also pretty disappointed that I'm the butt of a joke that doesn't make anyone laugh. In fact, your "joke" makes everyone think I'm an asshole. While this may seem unimportant to you, I do consider some of these people my real life friends and I don't want people that I care about thinking I'm some asshole because of your failed joke.

Listing your weekend and poking fun at me is a great idea... if myself or anyone reading it understood that this is what you are doing.

Now if we are into airing dirty laundry, 13chemicals, I told eitje that I thought things were working out for you job wise and school wise. I expressed that I was happy that it worked out for you that way and you seem to be in a great place, from what I could read. Though I don't know for sure, as all I know is what is on this board. We talked for a brief moment on Austin music scene as I was reading a catalogue that had local austin rock bands modeling the clothes (anthropologie). I believe your involvement in the scene there was mentioned, though not thoroughly discussed. Now if eitje thinks this is a bad thing, then I'm quite confused. Unless you were joking, too, in which case neither I nor anyone else gathered that.

Katie,

Things went downhill for me really badly that week starting on Thursday night and I completely forgot about making your spring rolls. They sound awesome and are something I fully intend to make soon.

Aside from feeling like we're all getting a bit namby-pamby being so worried about treading on each other's delicate sensibilities, here's my take on this stuff...

eitje, if this was some kind of joke, I surely don't get it. I'm also pretty disappointed that I'm the butt of a joke that doesn't make anyone laugh. In fact, your "joke" makes everyone think I'm an asshole. While this may seem unimportant to you, I do consider some of these people my real life friends and I don't want people that I care about thinking I'm some asshole because of your failed joke.

I laughed. I thought he was being tongue-in-cheek about "being forced to sleep on a couch" when the reality was that you put him up in your house for free, and showed him around town! I don't see how anyone could think you're an asshole for doing that. His post seemed more self-deprecating than anything.

Also, for what it's worth, after having spent nearly a decade chatting and interacting with you lot, I really don't differentiate between real life and online friends. As I've said before, the vast majority of you would be welcome in my house, be it for a BBQ lime of some kind, or to crash on my couch. I like to think a lot of you feel the same way about me.

taking yourself too seriously ... not very good at being the butt of any joke.

Honestly Mel, and you know I like you and consider you a friend, but that's how you're coming off here. It seems like you misunderstood the intent of eitje's post, and reacted accordingly. But then I have no idea if there's more to it than just what's posted here. I'm just going on what I've read.

Thanks for your input Si. I do really appreciate it, and I agree, many of you people are welcome in my house, including you Si.
I was not originally upset about that post in the least...

 It's about sasha's reaction some pages back. I didn't shit talk anyone and I don't want my friends thinking I'm some asshole who talks shit. If there was some kind of joke in that, It flew right over my head.

Lastly, there is more to this. That's something I'm hatching out in PM with eitje.

eitje, if this was some kind of joke, I surely don't get it.

I think this whole rant just goes to show that you just take yourself too seriously.

Do you remember how many times that happened last weekend?  How many times you were alarmed because you took what I thought was a nonsensical comment and made it into something real?

It was some way ultra-defensive behavior.  Much like we're seeing now.

Si had it right - the whole thread was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek, because I had an awesome time up there.

Seriously, everything was great, until I got back and you totally flipped out.

edit:  And whose opinion of you do you think has been impacted, anyway?  Sasha's?  Tricky's?  Do their opinions really matter to you?

Mongolian BBQ is pretty disappointing.  It's basically all-you-can-eat stir fry.  Korean BBQ, on the other hand, is awesome.  I bet there are some good places in California.



When you visit the east coast, you should get Carolina BBQ.  It was by far my favorite style of BBQ, speaking of American style barbecues.

I fucking love sleeping on couches. Couches at night - hobo's delight.
Like Si said, air-mattresses always deflate under you during the night.
I read Eitje's complaints as:
"They wouldn't let me sleep between them in their bed, but at least they gave me a sweet couch rather then an air mattress or the floor. I played second fiddle to a cello and I'm surprisingly cool with that."

Anyway if you want a bed next time, Eitje, I'm 10 minutes from Philly and I've chosen my couch over my bed for general sleeping. Everyone's welcome at my place any time.

I prefer couches to beds 100% of the time.  I preferred my old slumberjack cot to a real bed, or just a pad on the floor.  I'm also particularly partial to hammocks.

The only reason I bought a bed at all is that girls seem to be uniformly unimpressed with grown men who don't own beds.

Now if we are into airing dirty laundry, 13chemicals, I told eitje that I thought things were working out for you job wise and school wise. I expressed that I was happy that it worked out for you that way and you seem to be in a great place, from what I could read. Though I don't know for sure, as all I know is what is on this board. We talked for a brief moment on Austin music scene as I was reading a catalogue that had local austin rock bands modeling the clothes (anthropologie). I believe your involvement in the scene there was mentioned, though not thoroughly discussed. Now if eitje thinks this is a bad thing, then I'm quite confused. Unless you were joking, too, in which case neither I nor anyone else gathered that.


Okay okay, chill out... I think you're cool and Luke is a moron.


Also-  Those ribs look so good!  I had ribs at this restaurant named Korea House twice now and they are some of the best ribs I have ever had.  When Mosh comes into town we are taking him to Korea House.
