Thursday night drinks in Berlin

Is that by Rosa-Luxembourg?

Oh no... I thought we were going to do that NEXT week so that I don't have to worry about getting up for my last day in the office!!! But no real objection here...

Erbeer is near Alexanderplatz. Max-Beer-Str. 56 is the address.

I dont mind, we can do it next week instead! So someone suggest something for this week!

Both weeks would be a bit much, right

I don't know as far as I am concerned you can't have too many Erdbeer Dacquari's from that place

I totally agree, but I reckon we might get a few complaints!!

but they are soooooo yummmmyyyyy

Erdbeer is closer to Rosa Lux than Alex really. Another positive is that it's non-smoking, so I'm all for giving them more business.

We haven't been out in Kreuzburg for a while can you recommend anything in that area Gooner then maybe we could do Erdbeer the week after when you don't need to worry about getting up for work.

Yeah...you're right. I keep forgetting that as I tend to walk from Alex instead of changing onto the U2...

Is it not closer for you to walk from Weinmeisterstraße?

Smarty Pants

Half a dozen of one and six of the other. By the time you have waited at Alex (cos the U-Bahn always sits for 5 mins or so at that time) to go the one further stop I could have walked it. The difference is not that great...

@jtw - I thought you were in holland? That conference must be *fascinating* if you're map-criting after only two days...

I've always fancied going to one of these meet-ups but you lot always seem to pick places that are either full of mincers, or where ugly chicks go. The latest suggestion fits into the latter category. Can we go somewhere else, like on Orienenburger Straße or something. That way I can always get a whore when I get bored of you lot! Nah only joking, you all sound dead pretty fly,

Peace,
Jamal

many a true word is said in gest

@JTW since when is Erdbeer nonsmoking?

Dont be so cruel on yourself, Im sure I wont be driven to whoring upon meeting your all.

@ebony don't bother talking to me

My loss eh?

... although there must be some reason why Thursday night drinks has encouraged people to drink a lot more than is reasonable... beer goggles?...

Globalgirl, don't put us down... I'm with SG on this one!

said in a joking tone*

@ ebony “Your loss� mmmmm lets ponder that.

Well at first glances I would say – no you don’t consider the depravation of my friendship as a loss and this is a weak attempt at being charming.

Why?

1 – generally the loss of something denotes the depravation of something with some kind of value to the person experiencing the loss.

2 – the objectified and derogatory way you speak about females would indicate you do not consider them valuable.

Conclusion – I am female therefore you do not consider me valuable therefore you do not see the depravation of my friendship as a loss.

Neat little conclusion but then I looked at some of your other comments on TT. I must say wow a total of 5 posts and most* of them derogatory to some sub-group of society.

So now this gets interesting:

Batty Boy – oh ok didn’t realise that was a derogatory way of calling someone gay.

So at first glance your comments about women seem derogatory but then when combing them with your also seemingly derogatory# comment about male sexual orientation, everything becomes clear. You are insecure about your sexuality because your sexuality is not aligned with what the majority of society currently accepts to be a “normal� sexuality. Therefore in order to be accepted into society you try to act out a “normal� sexuality in order to pass as a “real� man. In doing so you over compensate for / or overact the aggressive, dominating, hetero-sexual binary traits that society attaches to masculinity.

*(that’s being kind - actually all if you relate them back to their original context)

So taking this new information into account you do value the female your just unsure of how “real� men show it.

Therefore you will consider the depravation of friendship from a female as a loss

Therefore you will consider the depravation of my friendship as a loss.

Please accept my apology sorry dude didn’t realise you were having sexual orientation issues.

No need for the angst you can drop that hyper masculine façade, we don’t judge here.

I accept your apology welcome to TT look forward to talking to you further on Thursday night.

#(It’s no longer derogatory because nobody would speak about themselves in this manner)

onwards...did we ever actually decide anywhere for thursday? If it's Erdbeer the week after I'd certainly be up for K'berg.

wow SG you really reasoned that out, and here I just assumed that he had a small penis.

Now Now Stubbs!!!

lodge: don't distract us from the important issues on this thread! But Erdbeer followed by Xberg sounds good... yay for strawberry daquiris!

(Karli, don't be mean (though that is also possible)! How many daquiris do I owe you?)

ouch... ok peeps let's give the newbie a break. He is just trying to be affable and obviously hasn't learnt the valuable lesson that you can only get away with insulting people who already like you (difficult to do it the other way around).

Let's not get so worked up at the moment he is just a few lines in cyberspace... I can cope being called a "Batty Boy" (Hairspray was great by the way; I really must find out where John Travolta gets his dresses).

So as Lodge says: onwards... I think we are going to Erdbeer, right? The name reminds me of the cheesiest joint in London: "Strawberry Moon". Anyone ever had the pleasure?

One more thing to think about: Do you think the choice of TT username could reflect some form of prevalent psychosis?

Hang on, I thought it was erdbeer the week after?

Marcj would really like to give the guy the benefit of the doubt but he started a threat in Life in Berlin called "Which club in Berlin has the best pieces of ass? Suggested nighclubs for meeting hot white chicks.

Yes I think the general consenses is to move Erdbeer to the week after so Gooner can indulge on Dacquari's with out having to worry about getting up for work the next day.

So anyone know anywhere good around Kreuzburg for tomorrow or anywhere else in general?

I was waiting for someone to suggest a bar in k'Berg for this week, so erdbeer could be next week.

Can we all put our thinking caps on...

*confused* Just let me know where I need to be tomorrow - providing there is alcohol I'm not bothered!

Ok I will stop annoying everyone and Propose that Thirsty Thursday drinks this week will be at Erdbeer, Max-Beer-Str. 56. U-Bahn Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz.

See you all at 8ish!

wait a minute... I though Erdbeer was NEXT week

Just to clarify Sandra means Ebony started the thread, not me.

And ok then.

Erdbeer is THIS WEEK

If we drink enough, will the evil troll go away? I'm willing to give it a try.

who's "Sandra"?

I think that might catch on...

Sandgroperin - Don't you think you're being overly hard on yourself? I'm sure your friendship is nowhere as "depraved" as you repeatedly claim it to be.

That's just her Australian accent coming through.


Sandgroperin

lol - if nothing else ebony has made this forum a little more interesting than normal - have to thank the guy for that

@ bill not my terminology got it out of the dictionary for the definition of loss.

Are you sure - all sounds kinda morally debasing to me.

*cracks up laughing*

Jamal, seriously, I do hope you come on Thursday - we need to have some fun. And hey, if you decide that all us independent strong willed women aren't to your enjoyment...

well, maybe the english speaking will provide you with a laugh.

~Rose

You are awesome. That is all.

I will be there. Erdbeer is non smoking, so I can go without breathing consequences.

@ EbonyPlungeTaker, I hope you can make it.

Don't forget to bring some protection though- and I DON'T mean condoms!

Oh I am just so excited about Thirsty Thursday now!!!

Now that it's 3 pages deep...

I'm reposting the address .. for those of us who always need a MAP.

Erbeer is near Alexanderplatz. Max-Beer-Str. 56 is the address

~Rose

@bill well nanananananan he started it.
