New York meet-up photos, if you please.
On preview, I suppose those aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.

Stynxno has some (including the majority of the shoutouts, I believe); will post in the next few days.

You are too cute my darlings. Way to involve two separate threads, too. Sorry I had to bail: long story involving massages and cookies.

I take back all the terrible things I ever said about those little pieces of paper.
Well - almost all the terrible things I ever said about those little pieces of paper (smile).

Sadly, no sandwiches/corruption, nor massages/cookies (or at least, no photographic evidence of such). Instead, we have a recipe for stripper iceberg salad, $85 in sock puppet names, and the security of knowing it's ok to listen to Oasis after all. I think that's a fair trade.

Sorry I missed it. I had to go to my nephew's baptism. When they poured the water over his head, his sister, my two-year-old neice started yelling 'I wanna wash him! I wanna wash him!'

$80 in sock puppet names- I'm using Karaoke Rapture for my firstborn child.

Maybe my priorities are just out of whack, but this really was the most fun I've had at a meetup so far. Then again, it's the first one we've had where huge platters of French fries magically appeared.
Also, it was smart of us to meet on a day when most of the city were home hugging their toilets and recovering from Saturday's StPD festivities; the atmosphere at Revival was incredibly mellow.

Didn't you already promise the firstborn to t-mobile? Spare the name, if not the child.

I feel that I must pass the name onto my firstborn, no matter what cell phone provider I have promised him/her too. Plus, then they have to teach a child how to spell "karaoke".

TPS, this is such a beautiful story. Little Orphan Kara grows up in the T-Mobile Call Center Orphanarium with half a locket on a chain, the other half of which contains the missing "oke" in her name. She runs away, rescues a stray dog named which she names Twinkie, and sets off in search of her parents, not knowing that all that's left of her dear mother is a prolific AskMe legacy and stock in the Airborne fortune just waiting to be claimed.
I'm sorry, there's... something in my eye. *sniff*

There, TPS, I favorited your comment so you can favorite mine without tipping the scales. I hope you know where all this is headed...
Besides, you're like the China to my America. My entire economy of favorites is supported by you. If you were to withdraw them, my citizens would spend the 21st century eating shoe-leather and burning their furniture for warmth.

The layout of the room and the vibe of it all made it feel like a salon of sorts, but instead of talking about the arts and politics of the day there were discussions of the mesquite-flavored KY, the fugness of the current cycle of ANTM, the abyssmal quality of the Village Voice's new sex column and the fantastic mammaries of Ultragrrrl. At least that's all I left with from this meetup.

Let's not forget the wide array of food-within-food options we discussed.
No, wait, let's do forget those.

I was taking pics with Stynxno's camera; he's at my place and doesn't have the camera cord here- he promises to post his pictures tomorrow night. I apologize for holding all the shoutouts hostage, but you can totally blame Stynxno.
