Why would anyone want to meet you

I didn't say I wanted to meet up with anyone, did I? It's not like I could travel to most of those places, was just wondering if there's been a non-US meetup. And I am who I am. Are you B'onsor?

i've met netphorians in the uk and in mainland europe.

I should've defined "meetup," I guess. Did you meet them all singularly or more than one at once?

"netphoria meetup" sounds like it could be something a bit bigger and more organised than just meeting up with one other netphorian. i wasn't sure what was meant.

I actually tried to organise one where netphorians from the world over met up in Austin, Texas and were shown around the city by Trots, but they all shut that one down pretty quick.

I don't know if you've noticed but they're all pathological debbie downer types here. To maintain a base level of happiness please engage in regular breaks from 'boarding' here at netpho. Real life engagement is done at your own risk and you have been warned.

Before the Paris show in 07 there was a ton of Netphorians:

Davin, Skadgree (sp.?), Coolasicecream, all the french netphorians, a few of the germans (memoriesunwind etc),

some met later that year in London...

Thre was a scottish netphorian meet-up as well with toyschoketoys, christhimself, glasgowkiss and myself... and another one when Smashingjj played here 2 years ago.

anyway. I'm sure there are more.

Probably not. Mrs Kahlo is with me, so it's Rotterdam to talk to a Gallery, Breda for a talk and exhibition of my work and Amsterdam for relaxing and hitting up museums.

Oh and meet-up wise I'm going to be waiting at the airport for when Scotty arrives. He doesn't know this of course.

i'm not sure if i can make that. it's quite a trek without a car, and i have that reunion thing in ghent the day before, which will normally end fairly late (i'll get the last train back) and be quite boozy.
but maybe i can make it work. what's your program on sunday in breda? when are you arriving and when are you leaving? when is the talk?

09-22-2014, 08:59 AM
what reunion thing?

Cool As Ice Cream
09-22-2014, 10:56 AM
it's this kind-of-yearly (it's not set in stone) mini-reunion i have with these two guys from university.
always good. it never comes with any of the bullshit that might come with bigger reunions, as it's just us.
it always takes a while to find a suitable date though, so i don't feel like i can cancel it.

i had mentioned it to alex before, which is why i referred to it as "that reunion thing".

speaking of netphorians meeting in EU -- hey bram you should see if kahlo or anyone else from the "07 crew" wants to meet up later this month! :eek: my bad for not getting the word out to more folks, sooner.




anyway, i've met various netphorians (you know who you are) in both the EU and the UK...on at least an annual basis from 2007 thru 2011. unfortunately, my travel opportunities have been limited the last 3 years....but thats over now.

there was this one dude one here who was in s. korea when i was there. we could have met up, but never did. i forget his name now. i think he was also teaching esl.

we should have met up. we could have had soju shots in gang-nam and taken the subway drunk to the massage parlors.

on second thought, maybe not. i think he was homo. so he would have to wait outside while i was pleasured by a sex slave. then i would emerge, all hot and flustered, shamefaced and awkward, and he would give me a bored (and rather disgusted) look, and that would be that.

then we would part, go our separate ways, and never met again.

later on i would make a post, perhaps a thread, about this experience on 'phoria. people would ignore it. i would be crestfallen (no pun intended).

thank you for your attention.

the films aren't shite.

they are ABYSSMAL. they are the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION.

fuck those films. the hobbit is even worse. i can't wait until they make the children of hurin into a movie. then i will personally hunt down steven spielberg or jason statham or george cloony and eat his liver.
