Anyone in or near NYC?

[Banana]

Not sure where to put this but I just wanted to know if anyone lived in or around NYC? Would be nice to finally put a face to a screen name. If anyone wants to meet for lunch or dinner, let me know. And yes, I'll pay. Cheap bastards.

[hooligan]

Is this a YW.org meetup in NYC? I'm out on LI

[Banana]

No, I'm just personally asking.

[VV o n g B a]

i'll be in nyc in august and october for weddings if there's gonna be a meetup. going to be a groomsman in one and my ex is gonna be a bridesmaid. man... not looking forward to that one.

[Tao]

when exactly would you guys want to meet? i'm in school right now so some dates might not be good due to exams, but i'm up for whatever you plan.

[Craig]

I'm only a few thousand miles away. I'll be willing to go if somebody springs for a plane ticket, plus the hotel, car rental, etc.

[Adaon]

^^I'm on the same continent, that count? I'm up for the same deal/package that Craig is getting.

[Banana]

I was just going to plan something a bit small for people that happen to be in the area. Maybe just get some dinner at Carmine's or whatever but I'm thinking of a group with a max of 5-6 people.

I'm not inclined to pay $400 for you scrubs.

i'm sure we can pay for ourselves, i'd feel bad if you had to pay for people you don't even know

[Banana]

Nothing special really. Just figured it would be interesting to put a face to a screen name. When I was playing Quake2, our clan would meet up and have "normal" fun, not play video games and I always had a blast when I met up with people from gaming communities.

Figured that it would be the same as a message board.

I don't mind paying honestly.

[eos]

look, the only solution to this is to meet in chicago. it's halfway between the coasts.

plus, everyone can stay at my house. especially my sai lo, cuz he can cook. LOL

[hooligan]

i'd like to hang banana, but i'm not ok with surprise sex.

[Atealtha]

I'm down for a meetup.

[hooligan]

I'm down for a meetup.

Where are you in NY?

[Tao]

ummm...just so everyone knows....so far it seems like a huge sausage fest.

[lethal]

I'll be up in NYC in about a month. I'd be up for it. And Banana, no need to pay for everyone.

[bmwhype]

i live in brooklyn. im hardly on this forum. am i invited?

[Adaon]

Aren't that many women on these boards to start with.

Would be cool if Akane was there but I don't want to get slapped.

[hooligan]

The more sausage the less drama.

[deez nuts]

i will only meet yw chicks now.

[Banana]

Guess we're waiting for Lethal if that's ok with anyone that's interested in meeting up.

I spent most of my life moving from city to city because of work so I don't know the city that well. Just came back under a more permanent status because I'm heading back to school in NYC.

[Banana]

Yea, all 4 of them.

[Craig]

i live in brooklyn. im hardly on this forum. am i invited?Sure, the more the merrier.

[Atealtha]

I'm in Sunnyside (surprise).

[Banana]

Anyone still interested?

[urbia]

I only just saw this. My brother lives in NYC. I'm due for a visit. I'm a 'maybe' until I get more info 'cause I may not be able to make the exact date.

[Untalented]

I'm from Brooklyn, We can head too maybe the city for dinner or lunching.
Though I doubt you guys would like me, I'm just a 16 year old kid.

[Untalented]

We should just have like some sort of time frame and the particular area too socialize

[Untalented]

We should just have like some sort of time frame and the particular area too socialize:biggrin:

[urbia]

Update: You guys should just meet up without me. Turns out my brother is visiting me this year and not the other way around.

[Banana]

Doesn't look like anyone is that interested at the moment anyway.

[lethal]

OK Banana, I'm up for this and I bet I could get a couple others too. Just set a date and time and place and we'll try to get it together. Worst case, it'll just be you and me and maybe Tao and possibly hooligan.

[urbia]

It's probably just bad timing or something. It seemed a lot of people replied to this thread.

[mr. x]

I will admit that I am in the area however I am only here til Saturday, Friday I have to attend a wedding, and tommorow we're going to Brooklyn so this might not work out.

[Yeahman]

Overseas for the summer.

[Banana]

next thursday?

[lethal]

I start a new job on Monday, so I can't commit to anything before I start. I have no idea what its going to be like yet. But I'm up for the concept and will come out as long as I'm not working.

[lethal]

You work in midtown or downtown, Banana? I'm in Times Square.

[eos]

^take a picture of him and send it to me.

[Tao]

i´m in ecuador right now, wont be able to make it until after august 7th

[Banana]

So, sometime in Aug, I take it?

[Atealtha]

I'm not going anywhere. Just let me know in advance.

[Banana]

August seems to be best for everyone when it comes to considering everyone's schedules.

Lunch or dinner?

Edit: Lethal, I'm in Jersey.

[VV o n g B a]

oh, if its august, i'll be in the city from the 7th to the 12th for a wedding.

[Banana]

Will compile a list in late july.

[Pookie_gal]

Just saw this thread - I'm definitely down for meeting up. Banana, it may be difficult to coincide with everyone's schedules so you should just set a date. You could set a main date in August that everyone can make, but why not have a small gathering before then so that I don't feel so intimidated?

I'm not a guy in case you hadn't realised from my name, and also, are you all young?! I can't be seen hanging round with young men! :eek: :rolleyes:

[Banana]

We're Asian guys and look young regardless so you're pretty much stuck.

Most of us are in our 20s with some in their 30s.

As for the meet time, I'm pretty free until the semester starts so I'm waiting on everyone else.

You want to do something this Thursday as originally planned? I'm out of town the following week, but will be in the office the following week (I work in Times Square). As far as availability, it should be pretty open, but work comes up at the last minute for me occasionally.

[Banana]

I'm unable to make it this Thursday after arranging a training session for some people in my firm but I'm going to come up with a date in early August so Wong can make it.

[Pookie_gal]

I'm cool if people want to meet Thursday or another day. Haven't really started work yet properly, so let me know as soon as, as my job can be pretty hectic in the evenings. :smile:

[Banana]

*bump*

[VV o n g B a]

flying in the 7th. i might be able to do something on the 8th, 9th or 11th depending on the time.

8th maybe something during the day. 9th the same. 11 i might be able to do something whenever.

[Banana]

We can try for the 11th which is a Saturday but that is usually the most crowded in terms of scheduling for others, I think.

Can anyone else, who originally said they would want to meet, chime in?

So far, I only count:

Pookie Gal
Lethal
Tao
Monkey
Hooligan
Atealtha

[deez nuts]

i will sticky this cuz i'm a nice guy and i had a lot of sex with my white girlfriend last weekend.

[Banana]

Seems more and more people are free on Thursday.

So, Sat or Thursday?

[Banana]

Guess individual PMs are in order as some might miss this tread.

[Banana]

I think Aug 11th would be best honestly. Anyone can't make it on that Sat?

[applehead]

hey, i can't make it.
but i hope a lot of you guys can get together and have fun.
i hope we have another get together.
i'll definitely make it to that.

[Gordman]

Not me...

[Pookie_gal]

I think Aug 11th would be best honestly. Anyone can't make it on that Sat?

Was wondering what was going on with this! I'm ok for next Saturday. What are you planning?

[Banana]

Honestly don't know.

So far, only you, tao, and Monkey have responded. Thought we'd just go get lunch.

[monkeygone2]

Hey B,

If people are down for Texas barbeque, how about Hill Country?

If it's seafood, how about Black Pearl?

There's also Sushi Samba on the corner of Seventh Avenue and Barrow.

[VV o n g B a]

i'll try to come.

[Banana]

Well, can't make a suggestion until we actually have a list of who's coming or not. Still haven't found out if Thursday or Sat is better for people.

Waiting on a response from Lethal and Hooligan.

[monkeygone2]

^well, those places are close together.

[lethal]

I can't make it the 11th, going out of town that weekend. The 8th or 9th I can do.

[Banana]

Well, who can't make it on the 9th?

[Tao]

yeah sure, i´m good for whenever as long as it´s after the 7th

[Banana]

What about Pookie and Hooligan?

[Atealtha]

I got out of work at 6, weekdays.

[deez nuts]

starting a pool to see which one of you guys is gonna hook up with pookie gal

[Banana]

that would be your mini-me, Tao.

[deez nuts]

that would be your mini-me, Tao.

no, i won't be there. oh did you mean tony? cuz i recently had an epiphany and named my penis tao being that my penis is the real "mini-me."

[Tao]

thanks guys...this is gonna be the most awkward meet up ever

[deez nuts]

thanks guys...this is gonna be the most awkward meet up ever

no need to feel awkward, my mini-me. you will always be a "part" of me.

edit: /strokes you/

[Pookie_gal]

starting a pool to see which one of you guys is gonna hook up with pookie gal

Er, great, thanks for the welcome. :rolleyes:

I'm good for Thursday 9th. Assume that would be dinner, right?

[Craig]

Er, great, thanks for the welcome. :rolleyes:

I'm good for Thursday 9th. Assume that would be dinner, right?Well, knowing deez nuts online these past few years, ... I would assume if he really wanted to welcome you he would suggest meeting up at Scores ...

[deez nuts]

Er, great, thanks for the welcome. :rolleyes:


oh sorry. welcome to ny!

[monkeygone2]

no need to feel awkward, my mini-me. you will always be a "part" of me.

edit: /strokes you/

lol
Tao, I'm sorry I called you that -- deez nuts' Mini-Me. Never thought it would catch on.

[Banana]

Yes. Thursday 9th at 7:00PM.

Can someone pick a place to eat that isn't too crowded that's also in midtown manhattan?

[VV o n g B a]

Yes. Thursday 9th at 7:00PM.

Can someone pick a place to eat that isn't too crowded that's also in midtown manhattan?hmm. i thought it was gonna be lunch. i dunno if i can make a night meetup. guess i'll have to see.

[lethal]

Yes. Thursday 9th at 7:00PM.

Can someone pick a place to eat that isn't too crowded that's also in midtown manhattan?

I'll think of places. Got any preferences on genre and price range?

[Banana]

not really. just not something insane.

[Tao]

^ i thought you were treating everyone?

[Banana]

That would make my post sensible, no?

I think we need to post a place by tomorrow night.

[Pookie_gal]

That would make my post sensible, no?

I think we need to post a place by tomorrow night.

So you are confirming that you are treating everyone then? :biggrin: :wink:

[Tao]

So you are confirming that you are treating everyone then? :biggrin: :wink:

i have a feeling only if we all put out.

[Pookie_gal]

Oh. I think that may depend on where we're eating - if it's McDonalds or Wendy's, then nope. But I may reconsider if Thursday's venue is Asia de Cuba or Tao...

:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

[Tao]

good game g.g.

see what a fucking great wingman i am for you, my mini me. SHAKE AND BAKE!

[Pookie_gal]

it's funny how the universe works. i'm a big jt fan, and he has a restaurant with my last name....coincidence? i think not.

Your last name is Hospitality? :eek:

And Deez Nuts, you need to stop stirring. Right now.

[Banana]

Let's try somewhere in between...

[Atealtha]

I'm holding Thursday night open. Yeah, no fast food places please.

I don't know many places in Midtown. I've been to Kum Gang San in KTown. Other than that it's usually diners for me.

[lethal]

I'd say for midtown, Haru on 43 and Broadway or HK on 40th and 9th. Let's see...there's a couple Thai place on 9th that I like a lot. For authentic ramen I like Menchanko Tei on 55th between 5th and 6th. They're all reasonable prices as well.

[Banana]

Some place that won't be too crowded either. I'll let you pick since you're the food guru.

[lethal]

Menchanko Tei on 55th between 5th and 6th.

[Banana]

That's fine.

Menchanko Tei on 55th between 5th and 6th.

Thursday 8/9/2007 6:30pm

[Atealtha]

Alrighty then!

Guess we do the shady asking-random-people-if-they-are-from-yw dance?

[Banana]

Yea, I was wondering about that. Any ideas on how to identify each other?

Monkey is going to give me a ride so we'll come as a pair. Maybe we should wait outside at 6:30?

[monkeygone2]

^don't plan it out. it's funnier that way.

anyway, i already know you & PG. and lethal's pic is on yw.

[Atealtha]

ahh my friends have no good shots of me.

Here is the best pic of my mug I could find.

[Banana]

Well, Tao is easy to recognize and he knows Lethal. Only problem is Atealtha.

EDIT: Nevermind.

[Tao]

yes i have a fro..looking foward to meeting everyone

[applehead]

ahh my friends have no good shots of me.

Here is the best pic of my mug I could find.


omg. i totally thought you were a girl this whole time.
monkeygone writes me a pm and says how pookie girl
is going to be the only girl at dinner
and i thought, isn't atealtha going?
kekekekee

[snailpoo]

That's fine.

Menchanko Tei on 55th between 5th and 6th.

Thursday 8/9/2007 6:30pm

:eek:

I can't remember what it's like to leave work at 6:30 anymore... seeing as how it's 1AM, and I just got home.


Have fun guys. Guess, I'll try to catch everyone next time.

[lethal]

I forgot to consider the weather when choosing the ramen place. Oh well, still good. Yeah, Tao knows me. See you guys (and gal) tonight.

[Pookie_gal]

Cool, see you guys tonight! :smile:

[Atealtha]

Was fun. Should do this again.

Now I must walk a few cat swings and take a shower.

[Tao]

yeah it was a pretty nice night. banana's like totally the opposite of what i expected....he's actually like not bitter all the time.

[Banana]

Did you guys race home and try to post the first response to how it went down?

[Tao]

Did you guys race home and try to post the first response to how it went down?

yeah while giggling like little school girls.

[Banana]

I tend to smile much more than people expect.

I just play a lunatic online.

Maybe.

Actually, my posts and points of view are real.

[Pookie_gal]

Was a really good night - really enjoyed meeting you all. My first YW meet! :tongue:

(Please note, I'm just saying that so that you'll want to meet me again and make it look like I actually have some friends :biggrin: )

Thx to Banana for organising (and more), Lethal for the restaurant suggestions and everyone else for providing entertainment value. :wink:

[lethal]

Hi. Oh, thanks to Althea for being on time too.

[cuberds]

Damn it. I missed the meetup-- anyone up for another one? ^^

[Banana]

Perhaps but I'm not doing the planning this time.

[lethal]

Let's shoot for September sometime. What's people's preferences? A weekday dinner or a weekend lunch? I'll do some planning.

[Untalented]

I live down in brooklyn, where shall the meeting be?

[Atealtha]

I like a weekday dinner, breaks up the weekly routine.

[Banana]

Either or for me.

[Tao]

Either or for me.

please tell me you're paying for me again, that was awesome.

[cuberds]

You paid? How cool of you! Is it really mostly 20-something yappies? I'm an 18-year-old college student-- I might feel like I'm a kid in my sandbox. Or at work. Maybe we could do an AIM chatroom?

Probably weekends. Or if weekdays, evenings at best. But yes, that would break up the week. LOL.

[Tao]

nah rob's just paying for me, he's my sugar daddy

[Banana]

Yea, if we eat at McDonalds.

The last place was really good but really crowded so I'd opt for another venue. In fairness to others, they tried to pay their share but I was too fast for them.

[Atealtha]

Plus Tao puts out.

[Tao]

Plus Tao puts out.

not for your broke ass =P

[Tao]

anyhoot anytime before sept 21st or after sept 24th is good with me.

[cuberds]

I'd prefer a weekend gathering, but I could probably make it for a weekday dinner. Any suggestions for places and more definite dates? And an RSVP list?

[Tao]

I'd prefer a weekend gathering, but I could probably make it for a weekday dinner. Any suggestions for places and more definite dates? And an RSVP list?

oh in case no one told you, new members have to bring at least 2 hot girls to the meeting. sorry not my rules, just passing it along.

[cuberds]

You're funny. My friends are jail bait for y'all. LOL.

what's that saying again? if there's grass on the field play ball?

lol, ok i'll stop. looking foward to meeting ya.

[eos]

damn...why must you jerks live all the way over there??? my sister is turning 21 on september 28th and i wanted to get her cross-eyed drunk. she's funny when she's intoxicated.

i would like more pictures of you-know-who next time, k? LOL

[Tao]

i would like more pictures of you-know-who next time, k? LOL

lol....more pictures of me it is!

[Pookie_gal]

End of Sept (after the 24th) is good for me. I know it makes me sound like I'm really busy, but I'm not...honest! :biggrin:

[Adaon]

what's that saying again? if there's grass on the field play ball?

lol, ok i'll stop. looking foward to meeting ya.

That was one of Fireblade's/Beat180's lines. =P

[cuberds]

For some reason, I no longer feel safe attending this meetup alone. I might bring along my good friend Chris Hansen. JK.

[cuberds]

Did we lose interest in planning this? I'm still interested... ;_;

[lethal]

Oh yeah. Let's see, how's Thursday Sept 27 for dinner work?

[Banana]

I can't do Tuesdays and Thursdays. Classes.

[lethal]

Wed Sept 26?

[Atealtha]

Wednesday is fine with me.

[Pookie_gal]

Same here...

[Banana]

I can't make it on any day that ends with the letter y.

[cuberds]

I'm good.

[Pookie_gal]

I can't make it on any day that ends with the letter y.

Are you that busy 'studying'/'working'? :rolleyes:

[cuberds]

Which restaurant? What time?

[lethal]

What do you guys want? There's K-town. Or we could go non-Asian this time. Burgers at Shake Shack?

[cuberds]

LOL. I went to K-town twice this summer. I feel pretty uncomfortable there, even when I go with a group. Expensive, but alright.

A K-town restaurant is better than non-Asian.

[Atealtha]

I'm down with K-town.

[Adaon]

Post Pics plz!!

[Pookie_gal]

Post Pics plz!!

Not if I can help it...:rolleyes:

[Banana]

I'd be fine with it as long as I'm taking the picture.

[Adaon]

Not if I can help it...:rolleyes:

Oh c'mon, it'd be barmy. =)

[Banana]

Barmy?

I got bad news for you guys. There's a good chance I'll have to end up paying again since I just got that awesome new job.

[Tao]

Barmy?

I got bad news for you guys. There's a good chance I'll have to end up paying again since I just got that awesome new job.

sweeet...i definitely coming then

[kitkatbee]

lol congrats Banana! Well I guess more congrats for the people that are going! haha

[Banana]

McDonalds, people. The only perk you get is you get to supersize your meal.

[Tao]

again...sweeeet

[kitkatbee]

I want dessert too!

[cuberds]

If you got that hawesome new job, you better step it up a notch and take us out for KFC. I'm gonna eat you chicken! Armageddon s'more!

[cloudzero]

McDonalds, people. The only perk you get is you get to supersize your meal.

make sure you get tao a 'happy' meal

[kitkatbee]

this is soo not gono end well!

[Banana]

We should start hashing out the details since it's going to take place this Wednesday.

Place:
Time:
Who's going:

[cuberds]

What about Seoul Garden on 34 West 32nd Street Floor 2 (between 5th Ave & Broadway)? As for the time, the earlier the better, but no earlier than 6.

I was at Pinkberry yesterday.

[Banana]

I suggest we let Lethal decide on food.

[Atealtha]

So far it's on Wednesday, probably meeting up again at 7?

[lethal]

We wanted a quieter place than last time.

John's Pizzeria on 44th and 8th for Pizza.

Outdoor burgers, shakes, fries, hot dogs, etc at Shake Shack in Madison Square Park (best burgers in the city in my opinion).

Rice n Beans for Brazilian on 9th and 50th.

Daisy Mae's BBQ at 11th and 46th.

Say Cheese for gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches on 9th and 45th.

Delta Grill for Cajun at 9th and 48th.

Amarone on 9th and 47th or Simply Pasta on 41st and Broadway for Italian.

For K-town, I suggest Madangsui at 35 W. 35th St. Its a bit pricier than the Japanese noodle place from last time though.

I've heard that Saigon 48 is OK for Viet, but I've never tried it.

Haru on 44th for Japanese.

[cuberds]

Wow, you know your NYC venues. My vote is for Haru (after reading Yelp-- there are so many vegetarians on that site). My second choice is John's Pizzeria.

[lethal]

Everyone vote.

[eos]

Outdoor burgers, shakes, fries, hot dogs, etc at Shake Shack in Madison Square Park (best burgers in the city in my opinion).


dude, why'd you tell me to go to the other place last time then?

[lethal]

dude, why'd you tell me to go to the other place last time then?

Cause its only open during the summer. The other place is tied for the best burgers. I prefer it in the winter and this place in the summer.

[Pookie_gal]

My 2p worth:

Shake Shack: If we're going there, you have to go early. Queues are always long...

I really don't mind where we go, as long as it's not Korean. Which are the best places with the shortest queues, or where we can book a table in advance?

[Adaon]

Queues is English for lines, eh?

[Craig]

Queues is English for lines, eh?Surprised you haven't heard it more being so close to Silicon Valley and the nerd concentration. It's a very common term for a first-in first-out structure of similar items (humans, maybe) amongst Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Math nerds.

[Banana]

I'm game for anything. Well, except Korean since Pookie isn't interested. I'm not picky as long as it's quiet enough to hear your party's conversation but not too quiet where it would be a romantic setting.

If no one votes by 10:00, Lethal will just pick one.

[Atealtha]

Ahh man no love for Korean? What is it, the kimchi? Damn.

I guess Haru, since I've never been there and we need to come to a conclusion.

[cuberds]

Mmm, kimchi... Have fun, everyone! I don't think I can come. Way too much homework, with any luck I may... T_T;

[lethal]

Watch me have to work late tomorrow and not be able to come.

[Banana]

Well, that would be pretty damn lame on your part. Lame, I say.

[eos]

^LOL...i saw it before you changed it.

[lethal]

I saw it too. Maybe I should change it back.

[eos]

watch out now....might scare someone...*coughTONYcough*

[kitkatbee]

lol change it back!

[Banana]

I don't know why you guys are still so paranoid of me. It's not like I look like a serial killer or anything.

Wait, that might be what freaks everyone out.

Anyway, it's 10:00PM. Andy, pick a place.

[eos]

ted bundy was a handsome charming man.

YOU are a handsome charming....person. LOL

[kitkatbee]

we will judge your serial killer level when they post up pics! haha

[cloudzero]

i bet he looks like OJ

[lethal]

Haru might be crowded. Simply Pasta is fairly quiet and good for groups. John's is good too. I can't remember how loud it gets there.
