We are having our first annual End of the World (Or Maybe Not) Party next Thursday, October 16, 2008 at Union Hall in Park Slope. Please remember your ID; as we’ve learned here, Union Hall has a strictly enforced carding policy. The fun will begin at 6:30pm. All are welcome, including occasional visitors to the site with less time on their hands than some of us Brownstoner-addicted bold type regulars. Many of the most adored (and not so adored) posters have confirmed their attendance. We hope to see you there.

  1. Wish I could come but stuck on the other side of the Atlantic.

    Have fun everyone and don’t get too serious – it’s only house prices after all.

  2. If I come, and I’m kind of feeling shy about it (particularly because TownHouse Lady won’t be there and I think she and I are simpatico, and she is freaking hilarious), I will wear my “bitter renter” t-shirt (which you can purchase on Zazzle!)

    What does anyone think of calling the guy who wrote the NY Mag article and asking him to come and cover the get-together?

    Right? Right….
    It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

  3. hello. i plan on attending. some of you crack my shit up during the day. i just moved to park slope in july from harlem, live a few blocks from union hall (near the commerce on 5th ave and 1st street). maybe people in the neighborhood have seen me walking my dog, a caramel pitbull, and my roommates dog a blind sweet lil old beagle. anyway, i plan on joining the festivities! how will we know who is who tho? someone mentioned hell my name is tags. did anyone find them? i actually have a bunch of those stickers if you cant find them.

    on a side note, i was terrified of moving to park slope. but i don’t find any of the stereotypes to be all that hardcore true at all.

    anyway it will be nice to meet some of you i think! oh yeah and im gay too, not that it matters but it seems like a few of you in this thread are too 🙂

  4. Well, let me see Biff…how about…I have managed to annoy 4, count ’em 4 ‘stoners (maybe more!) all within a 2-3 week period! That gave me a certain je-ne-sais-quoi-duck-and-cover feeling!

    You never know, multiple people could show up with What tags on them…I seriously wonder if What will come. I mean, I’m sure he doesn’t rant alllll day long, and wouldn’t mind taking a break for a nice cool refreshing drink.

  5. cobblehiller, good thinking. The battle armor tends to make one perspire, particularly in a room filled with lots of ‘Stoner blowhards like me and Dave. But I do plan on playing a practical joke on some poor unsuspecting partygoer by discretely slapping a “Hello, My Name is The What” sticker on his or her back!

    I’m still not sure what you have to worry about; you rarely piss off anyone. I should be the one in fear of getting out of their in one piece!
