There has been lots, believe you me. Hey, I stopped by Noisebridge yesterday and all of 2 people were there. Defcon weekend is a bad time to get my life back!
srsly. it's actually a real problem for us -- people (especially new people) get locked into that conversation (I claim it's the same single monologue, at least 20 years long at this point) and by the time they finally escape they're traumatized and don't come back. :[
The received wisdom is that it's the responsibility of the rest of the members to help free the poor recipients, but that doesn't work when there's nobody else there or the only others present have tuned out with headphones to avoid the monologue. Sigh.
Anyways, awesome to have you free! Can I buy you a scotch next week sometime? I know a great place in the mission... betcha we can find something you like :)
Yyyep. Jason was around and he was actually really good at cutting him off; I had to admire that. But he was the only other person around, and we still ended up staying for like 45 minutes or so...
So, absolutely you can buy me a scotch next week sometime. Whenever you want. I'll be up there Tuesday to see the King Tut exhibit with my mom, if you want to buy my mom a scotch too. ;) Or some other day. All the same to me. I got nothin' else going on.
Tuesday I can do, say, 6:30 (need to be at NB at 8pm for the Meeting Of DOOOOM), Monday or Thursday are more open. The place I'm thinking of is Nihon. Oh except they're closed Mondays, drat. If you want Monday I vote for Ryoko and sake instead.
