Are you that much of a player?

Intentionally wrong (long time IC badboy!), Focus (supersexy wonderful friend!) and Haircute (let's get wild and tough!) are looking for you!

The fly over states? Wrong jerk haircut with the lame glasses boy! More like the place where you need to fucking be!

We are looking for a midwest meetup of all serious fellows and gals who want to play games till the late night. Things will happen. Friendships will be forged. Beers wil be dranken. Cigs smoked. Hands clasped. Dudes this is a thing.

Let's coordinate and show those coast fuckers that we mean business.

We are the central landmass and this is important to you. I am thinking of a wonderful time.

Ajutla where are you?

The dense mass will form into a fantastic experience and situation.

I will host things. Like, I'm talking place to party and people have a good time. At mostly my expense. I am that kind of dude, in the end!

Yeah, kids, we're in the breadbasket. The heartland of America. The great plains of obsolenscence, once global warming turns this place into a fucking desert.

This is gonna be an event! I will be there, staring at you awkwardly, like the awkward person I truly am!

I talked to my sister and her husband (in who's home I live!)

They rent and they told me that they would have no problem with staying elsewhere for a few days. I mean, all of us are so fucking laid back about shit it is almost FICTION. Dudes, let's get a guess list down. Let me plan this. Let me buy bottles of liquor, bottles of beer, and soft things for people to sleep on. I am that kind of guy. Let's all have a damned good time!

I have no qualms about bringing my own Sleeping Solution, if that would be easier. I am also okay with transporting someone who is trapped in Kansas City over to Topeka.

Dudes, Topeka is about to be rocked.

I think we should all roll in to the local bullshit punk club and lay down several laws.

Either way, it will be fun. Like I said, serious guest list, and lets do this. Fun will be had. I got mad money, so let's bust a goddamned nut.

Man, you've already got your Kentucky shindig to plan. Nothing ever happens west of St. Louis, unless it happens to be west of the Rocky Mountains as well! If you want in on this, you need to just make a road trip out of it. If you get on westbound 64 over to 70 and just drive for, like, sixteen hours, then you're there!

I'm glad to see some love for Ohio.

Crap, I mean, we're too far west to be New England, too far from the appalachians to be a mountain state, too far north to be the south, too hilly to be the great plains, and too far east to be part of the midwest.

Ohio is stuck in the middle and normal as hell.

I couldn't tell you. Equally confounding is the fact that Iowa City is full of Chicago girl trash.

320.9 miles! That's how far I would have to drive, which seems doable enough I think. That's like, a five hour trip one-way, plus a whole tank or two of gas. I driven to Las Vegas several times before, and that shit's like, well over twice as far away. So, five hours in the car doesn't sound too bad when you're used to spending twelve or fourteen each year.

What date are you setting for this thing, haircute?

Same here. Being in this state usually means no cool internet meet ups here, because apparently everyone but like ten people in Ohio use the internet for MySpace alone.

So dudes, I am maybe possibly with this if it is near some sort of airport, though the price and timing will of course affect my choices and such. Don't get hopes up too high, but yeah.

OK, and yeah, I actually like Ohio. The thing about Ohio is that it is so normal as to actually be insidious. LIke you think Ohio is so middle of the road whatever, but there is a strange undercurrent to shit. I mean, hell, the Cleveland and Akron area are such a brewing pot of bizarreness as to be astonishing.

So, you see, we are meant to be like the no-zone of America. The middle ground, the DMZ of America.

I really like it here, sorta.

This guy is a good place to start. If you go visit his store, you can get free bread. Like a whole loaf. No shit.

The world's largest and probably only gathering of Devo fans takes place here every year. Fuck, I mean, we birthed Devo on an unsuspecting earth.

The head of the Church of the Subgenius now calls Cleveland home.

Harvey Pekar is kinda normal here. Tobey from American Splendor actually used to work in a coffee place I frequented. He announced your change way too loudly.

Dick Goddard. That motherfucker is an alien, I tell you.

These are all really perfunctory examples of the whole thing that is Cleveland. I mean, I know every town has its weirdnesses, it is just that Cleveland has that special weirdness. I think it comes out of being a dead end town in denial that has had a lot of close brushes with maybe being something but always blew it.

I would love it if we aimed for, say, March 2. Anything earlier'd have to include a Tuesday or a Wednesday for me to participate.

Ok!

We can aim for March 2nd!

Give me a couple days to come up with a plan. Don't worry everything will be rock-fucking-solid.

This sounds nuts but I'm actually thinking of getting a couple hotel rooms. That might be extremely tight.

Dave Chapelle is from 20 minutes outside of Dayton. I've met him twice and he's awesome.

And northeast ohio has a charm to it. Unless of course it's Youngstown. That place has some history, but I've never seen so much poverty and so many crackhouses anywhere else.

Cincinatti has German food and beer and race riots.

Cleveland has Great Lakes Beer and sports teams that make you hate sports. Don't forget Drew Carey.

Akron has that blimp.



Ok guys Ohio meetup?

Okay, my only question:

1) Is there anyone in this thread who is currently living on their own in the Midwest, and specifically chose to live there based on its Many Fine Points?

I'd like to suggest that "it's close to the relatives" and "my new job is there" don't count.

The only reason my extended family survives there is because they own a bar downtown. What better way to make money in a dead town than to sell alchohol and host incredibly loud, (yet admittedly cool) musics?

Wichita is the cheapest city in which to live in the United States.

Youngstown is so depressing that it has a really bummer Springsteen song about it.

Dayton does have some interesting stuff. GBV and the Deal sisters being from there is pretyt indicative of the odd music stuff that comes out of that area.

Yes. Frequent it as often as you possibly can. Buy beer and eat food. It goes to a good cause.
