The image from behind of Ally walking, carrying a teddy bear from her outstretched arm, wearing fishnets and tough boots was very Yoshitomo Nara, "Nothing Ever Happened."

Not exactly like Madchen mit den Winkerflaggen, but you get my drift.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 27 October 2003 00:02 (twenty years ago) link

There was a teddy bear! I remember petting something soft.

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 27 October 2003 00:10 (twenty years ago) link

That was my sweater ;)

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 27 October 2003 00:15 (twenty years ago) link

that was a nice sweater. ILXors were well dressed, even jess.

― hstencil, Monday, 27 October 2003 00:16 (twenty years ago) link

And Stencil's haircut was sharp and rockabilly.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 27 October 2003 00:18 (twenty years ago) link

i pher the photos. at one point i was making the little bear do a little dance.

F. and I drank to the point of losing all distinction; we thought every picture S. took was a good one, and surely this cannot have been the case.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 27 October 2003 00:26 (twenty years ago) link

I drank to the point of being thankful I was wearing opaque tights. Me being flat on my back on the sidewalk- 1 less thing to be embarassed about today.

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 27 October 2003 01:09 (twenty years ago) link

Perhaps S. has sold his soul to the devil and has acquired the ability to take unnaturally good photos. I suggest we conduct another test photo shoot to see if the trick can be repeated.

bnw is the american jel, with all that implies.

I don't know about this. I am much more of a sarcastic jerk in small groups. And jel has better taste in music. I guess we do look alike tho.

― bnw (bnw), Monday, 27 October 2003 02:36 (twenty years ago) link

Spencer and jess and Michelangelo and my crew, you know who y'all are (insert dog whoops here) my thoughts are with you and I'm sorry I missed you guys!! Spencer, Florent is the greatest, it ought to be voted "most dependably awesome place to meet people" ever!

Carey, Yanc3y always argues with drunk girls at FAPs, it's his thing!

Anyway I want details. "Houston & Attorney" = the Parkside?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 27 October 2003 02:46 (twenty years ago) link

Carey, you were so drunk you forgot you were arguing with me not Yanc3y.

My favorite part of the night was when the Yankees lost. Nice to meet and see lots of you. I'll be moving to NY in December (for real).

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 27 October 2003 03:06 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah, but I at least got to admit my mistake to you afterwards. And because Yanc3y felt obligated to protect your honor and was trying to back your ass up.

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 27 October 2003 03:23 (twenty years ago) link

OMG Carey I am so sorry Raj like threw you to the pavement. That is so bad and I apologize on his behalf. OTOH you asked me in front of like 6 people why me and Tom didn't go ahead and have a baby already so I only apologize a little bit ;)

I had a great time! I don't feel I got enough time to chat with everyone properly cos there was so many people there, I was flitting around a lot so I apologize for not having proper chat with everyone and also for yelling "WOW! You're really tall!" at Jess. And also thank you everyone for being so nice to my friend Jackie, she had a great, great time and really enjoyed meeting everyone.

The bear photos will be uploaded Wednesday. None of you are saved.

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 04:46 (twenty years ago) link

ALSO: I was dragged into the UN fight.

By Yanc3y.

Carey proven right BY SCIENCE that the fight was indeed not with Aaron but instead with Yanc3y!!!

That was so horrifying, I try to jockey for a bit of space in that crowded pit and suddenly Yanc3y is screaming in my face "WHERE IS THE UN? WHERE IS THE UN?"

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 04:51 (twenty years ago) link

I miss NYC and NYCilxors already and I'm not even gone yet!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 27 October 2003 05:26 (twenty years ago) link

yeah it was real cool to catch up with and meet y'all. jess' tallness and garrison keillor voice threw me a bit. i was out almost to the end with jess/matos/daddino. uh, i ph34r the sterl gone wild bear photo, altho maybe if they were photos with dj griz it would be cooler. i barely got to say hi to spencer at all, among many others.

paul scifi and geeta both dropped hella wire knowledge on me.

and mary totally interrogated me (in the nicest possible way, tho).

(also nb to anyone writing for matos -- do not use the phrase "next-level" or he will get very angry)

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Monday, 27 October 2003 05:30 (twenty years ago) link

Ok so it was YOU who put the bear on his nipples. I couldn't remember who did that, I don't have the pix back til tomorrow cos me and Tom woke up way too late to get the one hour, I didn't make it there in time for it to be done by 6pm.

Anyway DJ Griz ain't for shit compared to my bear, I mean my bear actually exists. It's not mine anymore though?

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 05:33 (twenty years ago) link

Did I say that?!?!

Of course it sounds like something I would say, but still.

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 27 October 2003 06:15 (twenty years ago) link

Spencer, you should have stayed out longer with us than you would have seen my local. What did you end up doing the rest of the night, rock star?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 27 October 2003 06:17 (twenty years ago) link

once again, i had to miss out on what seemed to have been a real blast ... and i presume that there was no brunch in fact (b/c everyone was recovering from the night before?) :-(

anyway, it's great to read that everyone had a great time. maybe some other time :-)

(and is this NYC hordes invade Boston in mid-November thing still on? i can attend that, i promise!)

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 27 October 2003 06:22 (twenty years ago) link

mid-November = mega-FAP = my birthday fap on sat. nov 15th
feat. special guest djs!! venue TBA

so do the boston thang later (like maybe the weekend after the 15th?!)

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 27 October 2003 07:32 (twenty years ago) link

holy mother of fuck was that fun fun fun. the dirty bitter end w/me, Jess, Daddino = best 7am gotta-go-home-finally-already experience in friggin' AGES. THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING OUT IT MEANS SO MUCH TO MEEEE! [hugz]

― M Matos (M Matos), Monday, 27 October 2003 09:25 (twenty years ago) link

Like a birthday? Or a pretty view?

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 27 October 2003 13:58 (twenty years ago) link

I thank you, Mr. Daddino. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:00 (twenty years ago) link

love is the message

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:00 (twenty years ago) link

i pher the photos. at one point i was making the little bear do a little dance.

OMG JESS HARVELL SUCCUMBS TO THE TWEE!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:02 (twenty years ago) link

buy me drinks and i'll do just about anything

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:04 (twenty years ago) link

i slept for 17 hours last night. i think my mom thinks i'm on "the drugs".

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:05 (twenty years ago) link

Seriously, I'm pretty sure that Spencer is either a serial killer or a spy, either way would be pretty good.

re: the brunch, I was trying to decide this numerous times this weekend especially since when I got to the FAP like 4 or 5 people asked me to call them with the "brunch directions" and I was like wtf? Seriously, was there supposed to be a brunch? There is no actual indication of this on this thread besides Tad bringing up the concept of brunch and then Mary stating a good place to eat a brunch if you are an alcoholic (YAY!). I kind of feel bad, like I have failed in my hostess duties but OTOH we didn't actually get up and shower and leave my house until 5:30 so I mean that's not a good time for a brunch.

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 14:27 (twenty years ago) link

So instead we went to Citrus and ate pricey food (Tom got some kind of steak thing and I got seared tuna) and I got absolutely blasted on margaritas. I guess I should've posted to come to that, it's like brunch but instead of "brunch" it is "dinner".

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 14:29 (twenty years ago) link

Nice save, dude.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:31 (twenty years ago) link

Dude, like we actually wanted them there anyway, Carey would just harrass us about kids and marriage again. (Carey is the third NYC ilxor who has gotten drunk and asked me when I plan to get married and/or have children btw since July--KNOCK IT OFF PEOPLE BEFORE I THROW THE BEATDOWN)

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 14:38 (twenty years ago) link

well, you ain't getting any younger Ally ;o)

― chris (chris), Monday, 27 October 2003 14:38 (twenty years ago) link

Okay, so I missed the big Matos FAP thingie because I got rather drunk with myself at the Paybacks/Gore Gore Girls show. BUT, it was very nice to meet Carey (I profusely apologize yet again for not showing up at our designated time even though I live NEXT DOOR TO THE BAR -- really, I'm embarrassed for reals) and Geeta (Ms. post-punk Porn Axe) and seeing Matos (hugz back atcha).

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Monday, 27 October 2003 15:00 (twenty years ago) link

well, i didn't mean to be a pain in the neck wr2 the brunch thing. but it's all good.

and a geeta-fest mega-FAP would be fine by me, too -- i can attend that too.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:07 (twenty years ago) link

No, I'm not saying you were a "pain in the ass", I'm trying to find out where the conception was that A) there was a definite brunch B) I was the contact point for like 5 different people!! Maybe it's cos I know everything that happens in this godforesaken shit hole of a city.

Come to Geeta FAP dude, it'll be awesome and we'll do Kraftwerkout.

― Allyzay, Monday, 27 October 2003 16:10 (twenty years ago) link

there always seems to be this misconception that people wanna be brunching together following one of these fappers when in reality no one wants to revisit the horror under the curse of sunshine!!!

(can my bday piggyback on yrs, geeta? mine's next week)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:13 (twenty years ago) link

And I will ask about your contributions to your 401K and why you have not purchased a house yet.

x post

― Carey (Carey), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:17 (twenty years ago) link

hey, yanc3y - my friend was paranoid about her shirt for the rest of the night after you drunkenly teased her about it, you brute.

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:18 (twenty years ago) link

i didn't tease her! what did i say???

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:23 (twenty years ago) link

unless "my friend" = carey and "her shirt" = unbelievable nyc geographical ignance!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:23 (twenty years ago) link

she was all self-conscious about it b/c it was a paul frank baby tee turned inside-out and she said something like, "can you guys tell this is paul frank? i had to borrow it and i think it's really tacky." you were like, "yeah. that looks totally cheap." she spent the rest of the night looking down at her chest, pulling her jacket around her, and going, "oh god. i should just go home."

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:27 (twenty years ago) link

yancey is so smooth.

― bnw (bnw), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:29 (twenty years ago) link

your friend must've been really drunk! she shouldn't feel bad! isn't cheap tees what NYC nightlife is all about?

― M Matos (M Matos), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:31 (twenty years ago) link

oh no!!! i didn't mean to! tell her i'm sorry!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:32 (twenty years ago) link

I hope you lot looked after Vicky

― chris (chris), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:38 (twenty years ago) link

eh, it's totally cool. i'm actually more to blame. once she said she was sensitive about it i kept making all sorts of comments about it, way worse than you, and she decided to let be an issue.
matos, i think being cheap but wearing expesive tees is what nyc nightlife is all about!

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:40 (twenty years ago) link

Yancey also guessed my friend Jackie as being 48 years old. You really charmed everyone!! Yancey for president!!
