Where:

1165 Church St. #7
San Francisco


Enrollment

19/30


Organizer:

Spidere


Description:

The theme will be Alice in Wonderland.

Minch Niddle and Spidere are very excited to be putting together an SF0 Prom! It will happen, and we expect that it will be fantastic.

We have a location! Now we need people who want to help:
A) Decorate (decoration party Friday night--Minch has many excellent ideas)
B) Acquire and set up refreshments (including a tea party, of course)
C) Arrange music (lowteck, being awesome, has volunteered to deejay; but the location (apartment building) has some noise limitations, so set up an autoplay list for the latter part of the evening)

Did we mention the fantastic? :) Send a message to Spidere and Minch if you have ideas for helping.

Stupid American continent. Why you gotta be so big?

posted by Minch on July 8th, 2008 1:53 PM

because Manifest Destiny told us to expand.

I feel this is an important event, one worth traveling for... now if we only had a transporter beam to bring all our far far away players to town with.

Dok, can you build me a transporter beam, before August 16th? Thanks!

wacky American customs.

I've never been to one of those. We had balls: waltz and cha-cha and such. My Mom made my dress in sixth form and I made my own in seventh.
Sadly, I shall not be attending this one. Someday, someday I'll go to prom!

I think the Hatter wore a pair. I wore a pair of spats to my prom.

I wore a powder blue ballroom skirt with a wifebeater tanktop and combat boots. my hair was 3 inches long and spiky. I had a bubble gun and a duffel bag full of Dum-Dums. My date wore a Tigger suit and we were inside for all of 15 minutes. We succesfully got the DJ to play Pantera right before we left. I've never seen so many corsaged and perfectly-curled coifs glaring at me at once. But there's still time.

did i mention we held a pre-prom tailgate party outside, complete with a barbecue pit?

If a bunch of people want to help me move my stuff from Berkeley to my parent's garage in San Jose, I'd totally go to prom!

Any takers? Eh? Eh?

For the sake of tradition, I need a female date.

Ladies? Would one of you do me the honor?

La Scarlatta, I would be honored to be your date.

but if you prefer to be escorted by someone you already know, then I understand, and request the honor of a dance.

Minch! I was secretly hoping...look, I put on my party dress just for you!

We simply must get acquainted beforehand. I arrive the eve of the fifth, so any time thereafter.

The gummies are against the construction of a Minch-omatic device. If there were many Minches, this would likely cause the gummies much confusion and possibly heartbreak. There can only be one beloved Minch.

Mirror Installation? +2

I am not sure which moment was better:

When Someone performed "I'm a little tea cup"

or

When Sean and Sam showed up and I spazed out and ran around the room in circles squealing and squeaking incoherently only to end up shaking in the corner trying not to wet my pants I was so excited (I had never met them before). Luckily, they were very nice about me being a complete nut case.

3 questions
posted by susy derkins on August 17th, 2008 9:34 PM

1. Where did Spidere moustache go?
2. What is in the jar that Lincoln holds in his hand?
3. Who is that blurry yet awesome Red Queen?

1. It was in my bathroom. Doktor Harmon either swiped it or threw it away.

2. That is a glass of water. When I walked in and was rolled over and on the ground, Lank asked me if he could get me anything, I said I would like some water. That is what he handed to me.

Why is Lank Lincoln? Because of history. You of all people should know the answer to that.

Lank knows his Rushmore better than I do
posted by Spidere on August 19th, 2008 5:31 PM

I was totally wrong, mixing up Lincoln and Roosevelt, whereas Lank was totally right. I'd just like to publicly recognize that. :)

It is mightily confusing that the presidents don't go in order of their terms.

Also, lurking piratey is scary.
