Did someone actually show up once and read a book during dinner?

No, but she probably wanted to.

LOL at "pineapple kangaroo pie."

Or murder someone?

I would wonder if the two rules are perchance related? A person decided to read a book and someone else murdered them.

[–]ClayburnSunnyside[S] 6 points7 points ago

No, they're unrelated. "No murdering" is just a standard rule I apply to most in-person meetings of online strangers.

I guess that's understandable. Polite society does frown on that sort of thing, and so much blood and screaming can ruin a good dinner.

I forgot to mention no murdering once. Once.

[–]ClayburnSunnyside[S] 1 point2 points ago

I figure I might as well cover my ass. If one of you does kill someone, then I can be like, "Hey...I said no murdering. I did in no way condone this."

[–]jacqueofalltradesTriBeCa 1 point2 points ago

At which point they respond, "Whoops, my bad."

Totally okay for meetings of old friends, though.

I don't think your "no murder" rule would hold up in court...

You NYC people have all the fun. :-( I really miss working right on Houston...

[–]devils0508 8 points9 points ago

Why do you pay for the dinner? I'd rather pay for my own stuff.

[–]oniqueBushwick 11 points12 points ago

Because he wants some ass in trade.

I like food and entertainment. I'm paying for the food. You all are my entertainment.

Some marketing related thing.

[–]poopOnU 1 point2 points ago

So he's not just paying for people's dinners from the goodness of his heart?

[–]StarAnus -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm pretty sure it's not, based on the fact that it's always the same place along with what I've read on the facebook group.

But hey, it can be for all I know. Regardless, it's a free meal for people. I'm not gonna shit on the dude. It's no different than those 100% off deals or coupons.

I've noticed.

[–]KalgarooDitmas Park 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'd love to come, though I'm a little worried I won't be out of work that early. I think I should be able to; today should be light.

[–]ClayburnSunnyside[S] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah. It used to be later, which seemed to work better for most people. But now I get off work at 5:30 usually. And on Fridays, we tend to leave early. It takes about 30 minutes to walk down there. But I'm not good at killing time in the city since I don't like parks or shopping.

[–]KalgarooDitmas Park 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well, I got to work a little early today, today should be light, and I worked way too late all this week. So I'm going to try my best to leave a little early and come on down. I'm only up on 25th and 6th, so it's a short walk.

[–]slipstream37 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think I could come. I dont have any plans and could use something to do.

[–]RebeccaCoolKid 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sadly I am working, but I just wanted to say that this is so generous of you. You'll get real life karma for this.

Your name implies you're a porn star. If so, please remember that many in the group are virgins and should be treated with care.

Is their a limit on the amount of people that could come

[–]ClayburnSunnyside[S] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I try to keep it under 8 people since we need to be able to fit at a table.

[–]stetseiga 0 points1 point ago

How many do you have so far, I haven't had a Reddit meet up

[–]ClayburnSunnyside[S] 0 points1 point ago

I'm not very good at math, but I think we're at 8.

Aww! I'm actually doing some post-birthday celebrations/dinner at La Nacional at 8. Next time, I guess.

Hope you all have fun!

Awesome idea. I kind of want to do something like this one time. Maybe in July or August.

[–]SHITBEARDTHEPIRATE 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm...confused. You just pay for dinner for everyone who joins your crew? Wanting nothing in return other than their company?

Damn, I missed it, but I'm going to the Russian Bath House Variety show at the PIT tonight if anyone's still around. Thanks for the offer, though, and sorry I missed it!

Well, if only I double-checked r/nyc earlier...All my plans fell through, I got out of work at 6, and this is right by my office. Would've been great, but alas, I am home now. Oh well. Maybe next time.

Out of curiosity, how many people usually show up to these dinners?

Wish I could, but stuck in a hospital room all week. Sounds amazing.
