I know both Pats and Finnforest are fellows I must have beer with before I go. With younger Pat, it will be politics and economics (and cheesesteak- since he promised me one). With elder Pat, it will be family and playing with our kids (yeah, wives and kids and coming on this trip  ).And Jim- it's going to be RPI all day. He would show me stuff that would melt my mind. ------------- https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays" rel="nofollow - https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays |

I'd like to meet Matt, because I think we'd get along very well. We can share stories of nothingness. I'd also like to meet Henry, because he seems very "present", I guess. I feel like Vomps would be cool to hang out with, and I'd also like to do some music collab with him. Also, I want to go to Finland and meet the girls. There are multiple others, but I'm tired and I want to go to sleep. I really wouldn't mind meeting everyone here, considering I've never met another person who likes any kind of prog, and I truly need friends, someday. Unfortunately, my social anxiety will prevent me from leaving my domicile, ever. Oh well.

Either they are too young, or they are married. Third hypothesis: woman registered on PA just lurk and dare not to reveal themselves, because of.... Well, because of some of the masculine members and their ideas and comments about women?  (It doesn't include Vomps, since we all know that Vomps is a nice furball). |

Jon, his taste in music seems closest to mine so I imagine that'd be fun. Colin, which I imagine there's a chance might actually happen one day because we don't live too far apart. Matt, because I in no way understand what his life must be like and I'd like to understand Conor, as an excuse to go visit Vancouver  Assaf, so I can see his gigantic music collection.  There are a lot of other people on this forum (Rob, Alan, Tanner, Jim, Alex, etc.) who I think would probably cool to meet in real life, but I have no idea how that would actually work out because real life interaction is quite different from online interaction. Really the only thing I can imagine doing with most of these people is listening to music and chatting, since that's the extent of our real interaction thus far.

Then, we're gonna drive out to the East Coast and chill with Jon and Brian. We'll pick you up along the way, Alan. -------------

Also: Matt and Henry obviously. I reckon Matt I would just take to...anywhere. Henry I have no f**king clue, what on Earth would he want to do? Joel, because he is my on line bro. We'd probably get drunk and cause madness. Colorofmoney would be awesome to chill with because he's mad chill and seems like an all around cool guy. I dunno, uh...go to a movie and have a nice romantic night? Equality Pat, though last time I went to Philly he was in Jersey...what a punk! I guess we'd get cheesesteaks, walk around Philly, drink, or maybe just go to an Eagles game. ...Go to the liberty bell and stare at it while sobbing hysterically?? Vomps because I need to see the man and actual personality behind the constant facade. |
