While you're up there, would you get me a packet of cheese and onion crisps?

"blogging from the pub" "see you later losers"

Something is seriously wrong with this combination of phrases, even with irony accounted for. Pot. Kettle. Beer me.

if i was completely wire free with a killer laptop
i'd be doing all of this from a shack in the woods or some dyson sphere, or the top of public sculpture
or at least a more comfortable position

awww crap. i was hoping to blog lots of dull pub minutia, but it wasn't to be. i'm now back at home.

if anyone can post to metachat from a more interesting location then i can only hope you do better than me.

I was only joking about the batteries.

You forgot the crisps, didn't you?

if this thread is the pub now, i want the guinness on tap
it's easier than a meal

No hijinks in the pub? What is this world coming to?

It would be fun, if we all had laptops and pubs with internet (I don't, on either count), to have a meetup one night where we all go out and blog our spots simultaneously. Except for time zone differences.

So, to recap: except for not having a laptop, or a pub with internet, or congenial time zones, wouldn't this be a good idea? Anyone? Anyone?

how about we draw names and make people go do things in real life, like truth or dare with evidence

Yep, that's me. Darn this global internet!

at least your weren't playing xylophones, i'll never live it down

seems the only way to go global will have to be a kind of 24 hour relay
