[QUOTE=Hana-San;31601249]I have a snes, and a nes, but movie and then pub maybe. Or on a separate occasion.[/QUOTE] No n64?
[QUOTE=Mlisen14;31306876]Hana throw some PMs around to make sure people are actually in.[/QUOTE] It's probably not gonna go ahead. It's too hard to organise money. She said that it'd be better if we all did something that wouldn't need to be organised in advance (like go to the cinemas or something like that) - something which we could all do that could be paid for on the day.

Easier to just go movies or something. [QUOTE=Contag;31602309]No n64?[/QUOTE] No. Mum never bought one. But who needed one of those when you had Super mario brothers.
I used to chill at my cousin's as often as I could just to play Goldeneye and all the other N64 games he had. That thing was fucking awesome. Anyway yeah I didn't really expect this to go through but let me know in the future if you guys try organising a FP meet up in the future I guess.

a movie seems like a bit of a waste of time. i thought the point of this was social?

A movie allows people to socialize without it being massively awkward. You can go get something to eat after and discuss it, and it allows people to be in each other's presence without having to make small talk immediately after properly meeting. It's good for first dates and first group meet-ups for that reason.
You guys could always drink a few dozen bags of goon and pass out at flinders st steps like these winners. [t]http://www.indymedia.org.au/files/img_1300.jpg[/t]

I got smashed on the grass infront of the church opposite flinders once. In the middle of the day. We didn't get caught and dozens of cops must've walked by. Then i munted everywhere, got to the airport 2 minutes behind schedule and missed my flight and had to wait 14 hours at the airport for the next affordable one to darwin. It was pretty shit. My friend kept refilling me without me noticing and then the others told me to skull it down. I can't recall many times i've been drunker. I was still making a dick of myself at 2 in the morning in the airport maccas. I think spending 14 hours at the airport smelling like vomit was the worst bit though. But the look on the clerks faces when i paid to get into the virgin lounge was hilarious. And that's why you don't drink goon.

how about you all come over to my unilodge and see how many people we can fit in my single room
[QUOTE=MisterMooth;31645033]how about you all come over to my unilodge and see how many people we can fit in my single room[/QUOTE] We should all go to P.J. O'Brien's and see how many weirdos we can find. Like the stag's party which had a lot of chode-dildos with LED lights in them.
Mooth can I sleep at your place so I don't have to leave at 10? I'll buy you a slab.

[QUOTE=mr apple;31645018]People like you is why I hide my cigarettes untill I'm down the road a bit from that main exit/entrance, too many hobo's/drunks/teenagers asking for money/smokes[/QUOTE] Fuck off. 'People like you'. I don't even get drunk often. And when i do ask for cigarettes i always offer to buy first. You do know you can just say 'no' right?
[QUOTE=Keeshond v2;31644863]I know how to make conversation?[/QUOTE] I'm sure everyone in this thread knows how to make conversation; that was beside the point.
[QUOTE=devotchkade;31663952]I'm sure everyone in this thread knows how to make conversation; that was beside the point.[/QUOTE] If everyone here knew how to make conversation then why would you be worried about awkwardness in the first place? (unless you have social anxiety or something) Or maybe it's just me. I'm a pretty open dude.

Also, it's just a sort of awkward situation for some people. Some people are perfectly fine when it comes to most situations, but when it's meeting people you've only talked to online, well, sure, it can be awkward. That's not to say that those people are necessarily lacking in social skills. You definitely sound open, though; I don't know how many of us would get drunk in the church outside Flinders to that degree. [editline]11th August 2011[/editline] And by 'open', I mean stupid. [editline]11th August 2011[/editline] I'm sorry, that was mean. I jest, of course.

And as i got drunker and drunker my friends started trying to find ways to egg me into drinking more. It sucked but it's a good memory for me for other reasons. I've met a few people from FP before, sure it's a little awkward but once you break the ice and get conversation flowing it's fine.
Well, I think most of us can agree when we say that goon in general is just not a great idea. And I'm sure that's the case, but my point was that some people might feel easier with just a movie before anything else. Edit: And by 'we', I mean 'I'. I don't have dissociative identity disorder, just tired.
Yeah. It's gross stuff. I just drink a few different kinds of beer and scotch nowadays. And when it's anything else it's at a bar and i ask the tend to surprise me. And kay. Fair call.
Aha, I love how you're talking about your epic!hXc!drinking!adventures!, but if anyone says anything to criticize it, you're all defensive. "I DON'T DRINK MUCH. FUCK YOU." "I ONLY DID IT BECAUSE I WAS THIRSTY." "I DON'T DRINK GOON ANYMORE."
no.. i was just saying that i don't actually like goon. I have more class than that. I think you're overexadurating alot. Mr.apple said 'people like you' and that pissed me off because i'm not some scummy alcoholic, like he implied. Just because i did something once on flinders and i (and alot of other people, mind you) find the story amusing doesn't mean i'm trying to say i'm a drunkard. Please don't tell me you're the kind of person who gets all snide and poncy as soon as alcohol/drugs/cigarettes are even mentioned?
I definitely am. [editline]11th August 2011[/editline] I'm just teasing you, bro. I think what mr. apple said was absurd; people do stupid things sometimes, and to make a generalization like 'people like you steal my cigarettes' is a bit much.

The complete lack of tone and body launguage and such.
