Random Music Talk LXXXI: Now with special V.I.P.-level option ($450)

[lazarus]

Cobbler was active just 15 minutes ago, folks.


Too close for comfort.

 

[LemonMelon]

Regular level is $450. The CLICK! option is $1,100 and comes with a Battlestar Galactica DVD you already own.

 

[lazarus]

Cheapest level is only $35 but you have to stay in the Out Of Control sub-forum.

 

[cobl04]

That hyphen before level makes the title look really ugly.

 

[LemonMelon]

For $18,000 you can sit by yourself in Mr. Pussy's Cafe.

 

[mobvok]

Just reminded myself that we have a fan fiction forum.

I'm not crazy about it. I feel like including the periods is kind of old-fashioned.

Should have went with VIP.

Like the U2 fanclub.

Jive Turkey, get your ass to Mars the Video Game Thread for some Bioshock Infinite ending talk.

Back to bar fights.

I was sort of in one in New Orleans.

Some guy threw a drink at someone and totally missed, hitting me instead. A bouncer, apparently thinking I had provoked this, threw me out in the street. When I tried to protest, I was punched in the face.

Good times.

Fucking hell!

 

[joyfulgirl]

I through a glass of something in a guy's face in a bar once. Does that count?

Ooh! Did he make.... A PASS?

 

[joyfulgirl]

I forget what he did. It wasn't nice apparently,

 

[LemonMelon]

I paid the rent instead of buying Bioshock Infinite. Jive is going to throw something Canadian at me.

 

[IWasBored]

Like the U2 fanclub.

That's still conducted via yahoo list server, no?

You mean Wire? I'd have to check, but I'd guess they've had like 3 posts in the past 2 years.

I need to hear some fresh Canadian stereotypes. Not this Costco-brand "hockey and igloos and quick to apologize" stuff. Some next level business.

 

[Danny Boy]

Well close. 27 posts in April.

I got thrown out a Murphy's law show once for underage drinking. I probably posted about it when I got home after the fact. I can't remember if I was 19 or 20, but the lead singer was handing out beers, handed me one, and since there were only about 20 people at the show it was apparently far too easy for the bouncer to spot me and this other kid (who was about 16) drinking. Some dude shouted "hide your beer!" but before I could, I was being half-carried/shoved out the door. I stood outside the club for a few minutes, scratching my head as to what just happened, and how I'd just suffered through 6 terrible high school opening bands just to get tossed out after three songs. While I was standing there, the bouncer actually came back outside, apologized for kicking me out because he didn't realize the band had given out the beers, and let me back in. I ran back in, singing the chorus to "social BBQ" (obviously the song that was playing), misjudged a few steps, and smashed my knee on a the monitor.

Point of the story? None. Or maybe the monitor punched me in the knee. I'm not really sure.

There was that guy near Vancouver that killed all those women at his pig farm. I'm sure we could spin that up into a psycho killer stereotype.

Yeah, couldn't remember what that was called.

I sometimes forget there's a forum here outside of LS.

Wasn't there a really bad movie like that, where the guy was turning them into sausage?

...Go to Canada for a weekend? You remember the Pulled Pork Murderer right? I'm not saying we can't trust your relatives, I'm just saying.

You know what I should do is lurk on hockey fan sites to pick up some of the trash talk BC and Ontario are flinging at each other.

I was on the Wire mailing list from like 2001-2003 before I came over here. Funny how we used to do things back then. IIRC one of the main posters was a lazarus. Is that the same one who started this thread?

The only thing I take from this story is that your country's alcohol age limit is stupid.

 

[IWasBored]

True. And apparently my Holden Caufield joke where I pointed out my gray hairs last time I got carded didn't go over as well out loud as it did in my head.

 

[iron yuppie]

The slow motion punches may join the pantheon of greatest things I have ever seen.

Shit, this wasn't at the bar I recommended, was it? The crowd there is usually pretty sedate.

 

[bono_212]

Haha, no, we ended up going home first, so we went to a local place.

Yes. They took all of the Serge Gainsbourg out of the jukebox and replaced it with dubstep. They also only serve turpentine in Dixie cups for $2 a shot now.
