Wherein the mysterious OF is revealed (and while sapient is not a monkey, hot or otherwise) and the denim jacket that is not denim but suede also appears.

That "Where essexjan met jasons_planet" picture is awesome!

1. Awwwww
2. Definitely Much Hotness.
3. I can't believe it but it appears as though essexjan has hooked up with Stephen King.

Or Joe Hill, King's son. Maybe. I dunno.

The meetup was fantastic fun, and thanks to the one or two who knew for keeping the mystery going.

1. Gift can of spaghetti (the absolute height of English cuisine, to be served on toast) for jonmc - 29p

2. Lunch at Quiznos last Friday while jonmc quizzed me virtually nonstop about who 'the dude' was - $15

3. Look on jonmc's face when he realised (after 45 minutes) that 'the dude' was in fact sitting right next to me - priceless!

What does one have to do to join the Transatlantic Booty Call Club? Is one guaranteed cow with cracker sides? Is there anyone left in the UK to join up with or have we parceled them all out?
Will Stynx pump it up while Pinks tells it like it is?

*ahem*

(j/k - I'm very much spoken for and way too poor to fly to NYC)

Waidda minnit! Hold up, Jason's Planet and Essexjan are a couple? Nobody tells me ANYTHING. Do I have the right? Somebody needs to secure the metagossip.com domain name. I need more metagossip in my life, my own real life friends are too boring, having babies and acting like responsible adults in stable relationships and all.

Are they? i thought they were just bonking.

TPS, your hair looks cute. Did you get it re-cut, or did you just make it work? Either way, it looks nice and not at all freaky.

Thank you! I had Stynx trim a few weird parts off the back.

Man, there were some good-looking women at that meetup.

Weren't there, though? And some of those ladies are SINGLE. This is why I don't take self-pitying "I live in NYC and can't find a girlfriend" AskMeta questions seriously. HELLO, they're at meetups, waiting to meet you!

A wonderful set of photos! The final photo (jan and jason) is awesome.

Those dudes are probably all shut-ins who spend their lives playing WoW. People who actually, um, GO OUTSIDE usually have no trouble meeting people. Hell, I meet new people almost every day. I had a grand old time last night being discussed by The London Snobs.

Snob #2 asked Snob #1 (in reference to me) "Who is he?"

#1: "Oh, he's OK."
#2: "Isn't he American?"
#1: "Not exactly."
#2: "What does he do?"
#1: "Oh, he's a singer/guitarist type."
#2: "Does he do covers?"
#1: "No, he writes songs, too."
#2: "I already hate him."
*#2 hands me a spliff*
