Who Met Who? What happened?
@Dave
- Met @BananaHands : (STORY TO COME - INVOLVES 20 CHINS)
@WasabiPoptart
- Met @Docseverin. He used to live here and he also tried to steal my son while we were at a museum.
@Adam
- Met @Jay (2 times) and @LittleKagsin. Both are wonderful, wonderful people. (Obviously)
@BErt
- Met @stienman @Enresshou @PatrThom because we all live in the greater Detroit area (us poor bastards!!) @DarkAudit was there too because he was brave enough to visit our horrible, horrible ghetto.
@Celt Z
- Met @Tinwhistler and @callistarya
@Enresshou
- Met @PatrThom, @BErt, @DarkAudit and @stienman at a Michigan get-together last year. I also met @Fun Size at Neil Gaiman's book signing last year.
@Nick
- Met @HCGLNS (hobooo) and his wife @Squidleybits
@Jay
- Met @Adam (twice) and the city was in chaos... literally.
@DarkAudit
- Met up with @stienman, @BErt, @PatrThom, and @Enresshou in Ann Arbor.
@HCGLNS
- Met @ThatNickGuy and scared his pants by using a phone book, deer god how much scotch can one hobo drink over lunch with @checkeredhat and the exciting double feature of lets eat Chinese food with small children and @Eriol and @Dirona featuring @Squidleybits.
@stienman
- Met with @DarkAudit, @BErt, @PatrThom and @Enresshou in Ann Arbor summer 2013. We went for snacks and drinks at a local watering hole near the university of michigan diag. I don't recall any other details, but I drove at least a few people from one place to the bar. Either to avoid parking fees, or because I wasn't drinking. Or we did something before the bar. Much laughter.
@Gared
- Met @Hylian, had him round for dinner and Cards Against Humanity one evening a few months back, it was a blast. Next time we'll order pizza though, that soup took a lot longer than I remembered and I burnt the hell out of my hands on the bread. Oh, and I still have most of a container of spicy teriyaki seaweed strips, though now that I mentioned them, they sound tasty.
@Timmus
- Met with @Terrik in Shanghai. He drank Guinness with my dad and I at an Irish pub there that no longer exists. He's a pretty cool cat and I think he's got all the pictures.
@Docseverin
- Met @WasabiPoptart... I did not try to steal her spawn but was merely enjoying the time out. I have also met @LittleKagsin who was a lovely person even if she didn't watch my show and cheer me on!
@checkeredhat
- Met up with @HCGLNS downtown Toronto for a beer and some food once.
@HowDroll
- I've hung out/gotten obscenely drunk with @ElJuski and @BananaHands a bunch of times. Wouldn't recommend it -- ElJuski smells weird and BH is a vegan. They have both decided they were too cool for Chicago and moved to opposite coasts, so I doubt I'll be seeing much of them anymore (or at least until Juski needs another wedding date.)
@LittleKagsin
- I have met @Adam, @Docseverin and @BananaHands !
Adam passed through on his 'Halforumite Tour' and we went to dinner. I felt bad making him come all the way out here to meet up with me! But I was really happy he did. He's a really nice guy and easy to get a long with. I enjoyed our conversation and I didn't feel as awkward as I thought I would - awkward because of me and me being normally awkward not because of the situation. The most hilarious thing was that the server thought we were married, so he asked like, you know, couple-y type questions and we were just all 'Um..no?'. But, he was really awesome and he gave me a hug!
Docseverin came to do an air show at the base an hour south of me, so he generously got me some free passes to the show. I went and picked them up the day before..or maybe it was two, I don't remember. Regardless, I went and picked them up from him and he's a very sweet guy! We only talked/chatted for about 15 minutes in his hotel room. I did coerce him into showing me all of his tattoos, he has an AMAZING back piece that he let me see. I did miss the air show
I was stuck in traffic, just to get in, for over an hour. I was really sad about that. But, I'm glad I got to see him and talk to him for a little bit. I imagine the world would've imploded from our coolness level if we had spent anymore more time together. He's just that cool.
Bananahands came through on his moving trek across the country. It was kind of hard for us to meet up - I'm at the like...the very very top of Utah, I'm 15 minutes away from the Idaho border. Anyway, he was going through down in Richfield, which is quite a ways from me. But it was close to where my cos-sister lives, so I went and stayed the night with her, and met Bananahands the next day. He wanted to go hiking, so he picked a hike that was ABSOLUTELY in the middle nowhere! But it's okay, he didn't try to murder me. So, we went on our hike and it was a lot of fun! I had a great time talking with him about a lot of topics, climbing on the boulders and just enjoying the hiking trail. After the hike we went for lunch and then he went on his way. (We took a couple of pictures, but they're in his possession so I have no control weather they get posted or not.)
@Dirona
- I've met @HCGLNS and @Squidleybits as part of the move across the country. Almost met Jay... stupid Montreal traffic. Never met @Adam, despite living in the Okanagan for a bit... and apparently missed @Timmus too. Met @Emrys (and the Doomweasles) for nog when we lived in Saskatchewan.

A HOBO ADVENTURE
When Nick met a hobo.
Several years ago @ThatNickGuy was returning to his parents home in Halifax to spend the Christmas holidays. An adventurous hobo took it upon himself to call Nick up and arrange some adventures. After a brief discussion with Nicks lovely mother, he warily answered the phone.
"Hello Nick, this is HCGLNS calling. You mentioned that you were in Halifax for the holidays and wondered if you want to have some adventures? "
I suddenly detected a strong smell and panicked tone reverberating from the telephone as Nick gasped in fear, " OH MY GOD! HOW DID YOU GET THIS NUMBER? ARE YOU STALKING ME?!"
To which I calmly replied. "Relax Nick. I simply guessed that your parents share your last name and use a device called a phone book to obtain this number. "
Having assuaged his tremors we made arrangements to share food and beverages at a local watering hole known as Jack Astors.
Upon entering the establishment I was immediately greeted by a bubbly hostess, " Good evening Mr Hobo! Table for four?"
"No thank you, I'm meeting a gentleman tonight. Table for two at the bar will suffice. "
Upon receiving a fine table in the bar, a waitress approached and said,
"Good evening Mr Hobo. My name is Buxom. Would you like your usual?"
"Not tonight thank you, I'm driving. Just coffee please. "
"Milk cream or sugar?"
"Jack Daniels. And to start four of those unlimited garlic bread and for my main a full rack of ribs."
Nick eventually arrived and took his seat at the table. We made our introductions and Buxom quickly returned and asked for Nicks drink order.
"I'd like a Blue Lite please. "
Now for some reason the sound system in the restaurant skipped and many patrons were staring at us. Buxom her cleavage visibly deflated asked resigningly if a Keith's lite would suffice. She then offered many suggestions from the vegetarian section of the menu that Nick might enjoy.
After finishing our meal we made our way over to a book store called Chapters. Upon entering our noted author Nick was treated like royalty and appeared several inches taller. After a few minutes one of the several employees servicing Nick approached me and politely spoke.
"Excuse me sir, could you please refrain from pointing and laughing at the Starbucks patrons. Is there a book I could help you with?"
"No thanks I'll just go play with the Thomas train set."
Several hours later Nick finished his Warpoling and we headed long to our final destination, an electronics store called Best Buy.
Immediately upon entering the store several young male employees bolted from my sight, while a man with a very nice beard and a managers nametag approached me.
"Hello sir you look like a husband with a list from his wife."
"Indeed I do have a list from my wife. I require the following ..."
So myself being treated by a competent employee, the young male employees attempted to regroup but they were TOO SLOW! A vibrant young female employee named Chesty had swooped down on Nick and the two of them began a vigorous courtship over the video game selection.
Eventually I drove an exhausted and sated Nick home.

Updated again. Please check if I missed you. The fuck are the bro fists people.
Like the updates.
I'd love to hear how the get togethers went.
Also, name tagging in mass makes the forum eat them up. Good thing I'm copy and pasting from word.

My name is Jason (though you plebs can call me Jay). I live in Laval, Quebec though it's pretty much the smaller (yet better) sister island of Montreal.
I've only met @Adam so far unfortunately though I had a few close calls with other halforumites such as Chad, Dirona, Eriol, Dark Angel.
As for the meet-up with Adam... all stories are covered... here : https://www.halforums.com/threads/the-adventures-of-adam-jay.29537/ (at least for the first time).
Lots of pictures in there... but a few favs are...
Future vacations? Tentative plans to go to Vegas with Adam (if his boss permits...). Maybe a
cruise during the winter. Sadly, infant reduces my mobility.
My dream would be to hang out with @Officer_Charon and @Frank

What a great night that was. I never would have thought I'd meet up with a halforumite in China. You should have gotten to Tianjin earlier Timmus. I definitely would have gone back up to Tianjin. Kinda wonder how that place has changed since I last lived there.

Government name is Samantha, most people call me Sam. I live in Chicago right now, although I've been sort of dreaming lately about moving to San Francisco.
I've hung out/gotten obscenely drunk with @ElJuski and @BananaHands a bunch of times. Wouldn't recommend it -- ElJuski smells weird and BH is a vegan. They have both decided they were too cool for Chicago and moved to opposite coasts, so I doubt I'll be seeing much of them anymore (or at least until Juski needs another wedding date.)
I don't have any pics with BH, but I'm sure most of you old-timers remember the infamous dickerdoodle photo shoot with Juice. He somehow managed to convince a school to let him work with children, so I won't re-post them without his permission, but here's a picture of him as a bunny:
And hanging out with some hot zombie bitch:

That would be great. When I have a better idea of when & where were going to be, you and I can see about making plans. I haven't been "home" in almost 9 years, so a pork roll sandwich and diner coffee sounds good.I don't know how tight your schedule is, but if you'd like to grab a cup of coffee (or pork roll) when you're around NJ, I'd be up for that.

Real name is Christa. I live in Logan, Utah. Which is in the middle of nowhere in the US, but I have met @Adam, @Docseverin and @BananaHands !
Adam passed through on his 'Halforumite Tour' and we went to dinner. I felt bad making him come all the way out here to meet up with me! But I was really happy he did. He's a really nice guy and easy to get a long with. I enjoyed our conversation and I didn't feel as awkward as I thought I would - awkward because of me and me being normally awkward not because of the situation. The most hilarious thing was that the server thought we were married, so he asked like, you know, couple-y type questions and we were just all 'Um..no?'. But, he was really awesome and he gave me a hug!
Docseverin came to do an air show at the base an hour south of me, so he generously got me some free passes to the show. I went and picked them up the day before..or maybe it was two, I don't remember. Regardless, I went and picked them up from him and he's a very sweet guy! We only talked/chatted for about 15 minutes in his hotel room. I did coerce him into showing me all of his tattoos, he has an AMAZING back piece that he let me see. I did miss the air show I was stuck in traffic, just to get in, for over an hour. I was really sad about that. But, I'm glad I got to see him and talk to him for a little bit. I imagine the world would've imploded from our coolness level if we had spent anymore more time together. He's just that cool.
Bananahands came through on his moving trek across the country. It was kind of hard for us to meet up - I'm at the like...the very very top of Utah, I'm 15 minutes away from the Idaho border. Anyway, he was going through down in Richfield, which is quite a ways from me. But it was close to where my cos-sister lives, so I went and stayed the night with her, and met Bananahands the next day. He wanted to go hiking, so he picked a hike that was ABSOLUTELY in the middle nowhere! But it's okay, he didn't try to murder me. So, we went on our hike and it was a lot of fun! I had a great time talking with him about a lot of topics, climbing on the boulders and just enjoying the hiking trail. After the hike we went for lunch and then he went on his way. (We took a couple of pictures, but they're in his possession so I have no control weather they get posted or not.)
Adam passed through on his 'Halforumite Tour' and we went to dinner. I felt bad making him come all the way out here to meet up with me! But I was really happy he did. He's a really nice guy and easy to get a long with. I enjoyed our conversation and I didn't feel as awkward as I thought I would - awkward because of me and me being normally awkward not because of the situation. The most hilarious thing was that the server thought we were married, so he asked like, you know, couple-y type questions and we were just all 'Um..no?'. But, he was really awesome and he gave me a hug!

Indeed, we had a lengthy walk through a seven-story department store, searching for someplace to sit and chat, because I forgot that it might be crowded on a Saturday afternoon. M'bad!
Anywho, here's us having tea and discussing how Asian food is very bad for your waistline.
And this is after Jun very kindly permitted me to grope her husband.
Speaking of Asian food, the most famous night market in Taipei is probably Shilin Night Market (士林夜市), but a few years ago it moved from its original site to a new underground venue, and as a result it's lost a lot of its history and traditional atmosphere. As far as night markets go, it's not bad, but it's nothing special any more.
Two night markets I've enjoyed are Raohe Night Market (饒河夜市) (https://goo.gl/maps/WEbPETGbaDy) and Tonghua Night Market (通化夜市) (https://goo.gl/maps/zZJnaY2AB162). Both of these night markets have plenty of food stands, so they're suitable for snacking from one end to the other.

Shilin Night Market is still decent, absolutely. The food's quite yummy. It's just that it used to be one of the most historic and atmospheric night markets in Taipei, and after its relocation it lost a bit of that.

What is the best thing to come out of College Station
Highway 6

GasBandit
Personally I prefer Highway 21, but that comes out of Bryan, technically.
But that's ok, because I also prefer Bryan in most respects College Station's actually almost as far up its own ass as Austin, these days.

The Spouse and I love going on It's A Small World even though we know it is objectively boring and bad by today's standards. There are several reasons.
1) It's air-conditioned, sitting down, and kinda long. Good for breaks from the heat/other Florida weather
2) The boats don't have harnesses or restraints so you can sit relatively comfortably
3) You can usually pretty much walk straight onto it with little to no wait
4) We made up a story about how all of the dolls are the souls of people in limbo/purgatory. When you die and can't go on to your afterlife immediately, you wind up stuck in It's A Small World formed into one of the dolls. It explains why there are always new dolls, but you can still see older dolls among them as well. It's also why no matter how long you have been on it, there is seemingly always another room. There is always another room. Theeere is aalways a-no-ther room. AAA-NO-THER ROOM...
This clown is the only one that realizes they are all trapped.
