Fuck. That's like bed time.

Should we do a Friday, so you can stay out late, like 10:00? I could probably do 7, 7:30 on Friday.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 9:38 am

Your boy D isn't ever really good before 8:00 at the earliest.

Tonight is fine. So what if I don't get to see my kids today?

Can I get away with shorts and t-shirt at this place?

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 9:53 am

You might feel like a dick if its like some "2003 Softball League" t-shirt but if its a really classy Affliction deal, you'll be ok. So far as I can tell, the only BIG NO is wearing a hat. They're really against hats. But they make up for it with great fried chicken.

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 10:14 am

Well, that's some bullshit.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 10:25 am

The place is an entirely polar experience; it either sucks or is great and there isn't much in between.

$19 burger. Ha!

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 11:43 am

Yup. Its a ton better than some other local $12 burger, but that only makes it $15. Also, its a fucking brewpub and they valet park on weeknights.

Man, I was going to joke about whether I should bring a valet key.

I don't think I've RSVP'd. I'm a "maybe".

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 11:57 am

cerrano and I should be in.

Any chance of pushing this until tomorrow? Didn't warn my wife, and now she made plans.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 1:59 pm

Maybe she's going to "hook up" with one of your online bros, bro.

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 2:06 pm

I can't do tomorrow, but don't plan around me.

howard · Post by **howard** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 2:06 pm

you guys just let me know. Unencumbered by kids, wife or a life, I can make it whenever.

(Didn't run my errand today because I forgot Giants have a day game on TV. Priorities. I can just take the patient's pulse manually.)

You must mean ball caps. A nice Panama must be acceptable, right? I guess we'll find out.

I'm definitely out now. Fuckton of work dumped on me, and an asshole employee with a bullshit complaint wasted over 3 hours of my time to tell me his claims. Try getting a psychiatrist, asshole because you need a lot of fucking help.

Pick a day next week?

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 4:25 pm

Man, look at Syb selfishly blowing up everyone's night.

(I'm out too.)

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 5:13 pm

Wow.

Wow.

They (I, just now) don't call Syb the "Jpops of NJ" for nothing.

Drinking by myself. Thanks Syb.

I thought Jpops was the Jpops of NJ. Speaking of Jpops, isn't it odd that the SwampFathers have all disappeared? I bet they ditched us to form a private forum without all of us jerks.

Sorry, dudes. Let's pick a day next week and set it, so I can lock it in. Right now I should be good any day next week.

bapo! · Post by **bapo!** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 10:56 pm

I've been following this conversation with mild curiosity because I thought that I might contact you guys if I drove thru New Jersey this fall. Watching this thread devolve over the past couple of dozen posts is making me strongly consider Ohio instead.

rass · Post by **rass** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 6:26 am

Aww, c'mon bapo!. If nothing else, cerrano or I owe you a late night drunken train station pickup. Or was it a video rental store. Wow. Remember video rental stores?

A private forum? They couldn't ever figure out how to keep this one afloat, much less do a different forum.

Come on Bapo! I'll have a pack of Old Rasputins waiting for you! Just set a date, so I can block the wife from leaving the house after the kids are in bed.

Seriously, lets pick a fucking day next week so I can claim it on the calendar. I should be good any night.

rass · Post by **rass** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 2:46 pm

Want to try this again this week? Thursday should work for me, and Friday might, too.

I can throw out a new (literally, just last month) place or try, too. Right here.

The Sybian · Post by **The Sybian** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 3:01 pm

Definitely want to. Thursday I am holding soccer practice for my son's team, but I could meet up around 8ish. Friday I'd have to look into. 8 on should work, but not sure about earlier.

rass · Post by **rass** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 3:04 pm

Yeah, meant to say 8ish for me, too, on Thursday.

The Sybian · Post by **The Sybian** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 3:11 pm

8 at Trap Rock would work, I'd need some extra time for Mr. D to drive me to Clark.

elitist north jersey asshats.

i meant that in the nicest possible way of course.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 5:39 pm

Is there a new train that runs from Berkeley Heights to Westfield?

rass · Post by **rass** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 5:56 pm

The place in Clark is quite literally right off exit 135 (practically Central Jersey!) if that helps. Or we could hit a town with a train station, and even wait for you when NJ Transit gets you there a couple of hours late.

We have nothing against Central Jerseyites, it's more of a racist thing. Not for nuthin', but Trap Rock is a short walk from the Berkeley Heights train station... Getting home is your problem.

elflaco · Post by **elflaco** » Tue Oct 07, 2014 8:06 am

always figured you for a racist.

i can do Clark at 8p.
Berkeley Heights, not likely.

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Tue Oct 07, 2014 8:59 am

So fucking selfish.

(I think I have to go to DE for work on Thursday. And even if I didn't, Rangers open that night so I wouldn't show up. The first excuse is obviously more reasonable, but it just worked out that way.)

cerrano · Post by **cerrano** » Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:46 pm

thursday is a school night, bitches.

friday might be ok.

rass · Post by **rass** » Wed Oct 08, 2014 6:40 am

I can probably still do Friday, but it would definitely be after 8PM.

elflaco · Post by **elflaco** » Wed Oct 08, 2014 7:34 am

no good friday for me
have several friends coming up and staying over the night - we're running the tough mudder the next day.. friday will be a quiet night. saturday night on the other hand, planning on steaks and scotch.
