About Me
See here one man, aged 28 years young. A face that holds the promises of brilliance, exuberance, and the American Dream. These promises were once the Boy Scout badges that made every girl want to be pinned by him, that made every suburbian mother say, "I can't wait until the fine young Pelkus boy grows up to be a lawyer, married to MY daughter." Just imagine good ol' mum laughing it up with suburban Dad and Mr. and Mrs. The Pelkus, Esq., as he rests his feet in front of the fire, smoke lazily curling from his pipe.

Alas, these promises appear as distorted memories through the tumescent sea of cynicism and bitterness in which they are awash, barely visible through the iridescent slick of sardonic self-deprecation which floats on top. But as The Pelkus re-establishes contact with his inner geek, tapping the latent power of his comic collection, his Atari, and his piss-poor history with women, he shall wave his hands and the plague which has settled over him shall be split asunder!

There's a party in my PAX and you're invited

The important stuff
What it is
A very special Destructoid dinner party and pre-funk in Seattle for people too retarded or foreign to show up a little later in the week like normal people. Supermodels are also welcome.

When
Wednesday, September 2nd, 7:00 PM until whenever we feel like hitting the bars/clubs (10 or 11, probably).

Where
SEATTLE, my place, roughly two miles from the convention center, Red Lion, etc. Google "snackpalace seattle" if you need to find address and directions without the above link.


Stuff you should do if you want to come over... all over.
1 - Sign up on this spreadsheet so I can get a rough headcount and an idea of what kind of sexual debauchery I'll be cleaning up after:
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AillzYlk1OrBdG80UnpVRHN5WENyUmQ1UVZSZmtPTnc&hl=en

2 - Purchase a lot of alcohol (if you're too young to get booze, buy some Sunny D - NOT THE PURPLE STUFF). Bring this to my house. Give it to me and never ask to see it again. (There's a convenience store around the corner and a liquor store just a few blocks away.)

3 - Purchase a reasonable amount of food to cover for the fact that we're all alcoholics. The house grill will probably be at Burning Man with my roommate, but there'll still be a Viking gas range, two ovens, and a small deep fryer with which to wreak culinary havoc, so feel free to bring all manner of foodstuffs for yourself and others. There's a Trader Joe's a block a way, a fancy organic co-op place two blocks away, and a Safeway about six blocks away. I also plan on doing a little communal cooking and baking, but if you don't bring your own grub, too, you're probably going to end up with half a cookie that fell on the ground and a slightly fuzzy Cheeto. If you're lucky.


Other stuff you should know
1 - I have 3 cats. If you're allergic, there's a lovely patch of dead brown grass that you can sit on outside. Don't worry, you can still see all the fun going on inside through the windows!

2 - I've got all the current gen consoles (and a basic Rock Band setup) if you've got games. But if you beat me at any of them, you can go join the allergic kids.

3 - Don't do anything that's going to make me look stupid when the cops inevitably respond to a noise complaint. Well, illegally stupid; I think I'll have the stupid angle covered without any help. In other words, save the underage drinking and pot smoking for expo floor.

That is a wonderful "about me" section you've got there. Nice work.

I'll be bringing as much British ale as these feeble British arms can carry.

@djduffy
OH SHIZ YES
You know, I have a copy of The Legend of Chun Li that's just begging to be heckled live on the internet...

@char aznable
Thanks! :) I actually stole it from me circa 1999, when I wrote it for my now defunct webcomic. And now I'm kind of sad that it still/again applies now. *sigh*
