So I’m going to be traveling a lot over the next month or two. And rather than live my days in boredom in my hotel room, I thought I’d be social.
tl;dr: If you’re in any of the following cities, drop me a line at 
and we’ll hang*.
*I haven’t really booked these flights yet (other than the Carolinas/Detroit, which I’m going to this week and next), so don’t assume these locations are set in stone.
Assumptions
D_S will know what to do in my city better than me.
True. I have my shit together.
D_S will need a place to stay. Maybe my bed? ^_^
False. I’m traveling for work and will only be staying in the finest hotels my company’s stringent budget will allow. (Unless I’m staying the weekend. Then let’s talk.)
Crymore is going to turn into a travel blog./This is going to affect D_S’s post frequency negatively.
False. Travel blogs suck, and I can’t post with a frequency lower than 0.
I can go shot for shot with D_S.
False.
Even though I’m a fansubber, D_S will still want to see me.
Mostly false. I will only allow fansubbers whose works have received an average rating of A+ or higher to gaze upon my glorious visage.
So that’s how it is. Let’s friendship.
North Dakota? What in the actual fuck?
Seemed like a good vacation spot. I think they have hills or something.
Come to Canada again. We can go for bubble tea and karaoke. I’ll treat you but might end up forgetting my wallet so you’ll probably have to pay in the end.
I suppose I could skip over to Windsor when I’m in Detroit. Great idea!
…
I’m 30min from Roanoke
It’s a date.
>I can’t post with a frequency lower than 0.
You underestimate yourself.
He could start deleting posts. Obviously he’s not getting creative enough <.<
Deleting posts individually sounds like it’d take time. How about another site migration instead? We can aim for two months of lost data this time.
Detroit should be a blast.
I’ve been to both before and can assure ya St Louis is worse.
Did you stumble across St. Louis purely in a quest to find a city in worse shape than Detroit?
The fuck you doing in Albany? Either way, I’m from there. Nerd.
Work. I’ll actually only be going to half these cities (splitting the country up with a co-worker), but if I know where the cool kids are, I’ll aim for those places.
So yeah, maybe I’ll see you there, n-nerd.
Texas > Lubbock
WHY? There’s nothing there…
I dunno, the name seemed kinda cool.
Someday, when you come to the odd place that is New England, I will drink you under the table, and that’s a promise.
Is Norwich close to ya? Cuz I might be round those parts in a couple months.
Conneticut? It’s drivable, definitely.
If you figure out what to do in Roanoke, Virginia, please tell me. I’m still trying to figure it out myself and I’ve lived here for a year and a half already.
We could go to nerd shops and not buy anything, while decrying the state of the anime scene. Then go to an awful movie or concert, so we have a traumatic experience to bond over. And then back to my room for a Yu-Gi-Oh marathon. \o/
inb4 Dark_Sage and Kristen hook up.
Now if only we had a nerdshop better than a Gamestop.
Oh fuck fuck fuck. I forgot that Kristen was in Roanoke when I went. And I missed out on sakagami there too. FML.
>The moment you realize you’ll never see D_S in Canada.
If you live in Southern Ontario, it’d be feasible to cross over the bridge from Windsor and meet him in Detroit… haha
…Meet him in Detroit.
NOPE.
Milwaukee’s in Wisconsin, not around here(Metro Detroit Michigan) lol
Close enough. Midwest is Midwest.
Are you saving Columbus for Ohayocon next year or something? :<
Raleigh’s a pretty great place, though I’ve mostly stayed in chapel hill/durham
Got any suggestions then? I’ll rely on Yelp/G Maps elsewise.
Yard House is a great place to eat / drink – huge selection of beers, and if that’s not good enough for you, World of Beer is right next door. Check out the Walnut Creek Amphitheatere schedule for whenever you’re coming, there’s always a popular band or artist playing there. Ummmmm, a friend said a he had a great time at Charlie Goodnights (restaurant/comedy club). That’s about all I know about my capital for nightlife lol.
Ended up going to some middle eastern joint called Sitty. I forgot how awful middle eastern food was. :(
I fear for you and all those possible cringeworthy people you may meet.
Would love to see what would happen if you went to Australia and met your best fansubber pal tho
( ¬‿¬)
I just got the Journey pic reference. Does that mean you actually like good games dude :D ??
No, I hated Journey. Legitimately.
Wow, your taste in games is just as shit as your taste in anime.
I don’t play games to be bored. I have my job for that.
I dunno, I should be fine. Tomorrow I’ll be hitting up the Paramore/Fall Out Boy concert with some nakama in Raleigh. And then when I fly to Detroit on Sunday I’ll be hanging with a con friend. Maybe we’ll cross over to Windsor, since Detroit sucks.
Haven’t planned past that, since I don’t really have any flights booked.
But yes, I imagine Xythar has a very moist mouth.
Evenifyoudidn’tlikeJourneygodhowcanyou
I wish you and your nakama the best man~
>North Dakota
>Grand Forks
Huh
I dunno, maybe they have forks there. Can never have too many of those.
> Memphis
Aaaww yeah, I’d be able to see you! Though that would require me to not only leave my house, but be more than the lurker I’ve been.
If I end up going down there, we could meet halfway and just hang at your place and read my Crymore posts or something.
All right, Las Vegas and St Louis will — I think — be my last stops.
If you were all “come hang with me”, either I didn’t make it to that place (I only got to go to half of the cities on that list), I forgot about you, or we did hang.
If there are any decent cons in your area, do let me know though, and I will strongly consider paying a visit.
