Thursday night drinks in Berlin

Yeay! I've been let out early for good behavior.

See y'all tonite.

Sandgroperin, you owe me a new keyboard. I just laughed so hard, I spit apple juice all over it.

yeah I'm pretty funny I should put up a warning - Danger don't drink apple juice while reading sandgroperins postings - what a waste of juice and a keyboard sorry dude

How was the Mickey D's? Any kids there with Che t-shirts?

Mickey D's? How drunk would you have to be to propose that?

All that Alcohol was making me hungry (It's a vicious circle)

If I'd thought too hard about it I would have got a craving for Chicken McNuggets with hot mustard sauce and salty fries. But I try not to do that in Europe.

Hope you didn't have any problems with salty burgers...

Better in the states or something? Alas the lure of c-w&c was too hard to resist last night...

The secret is to dip the fries in the hot mustard as well.

bizzarely, I'm finding your fast-food tips considerably more compelling than actual work. Any more?

Fry sauce - it's a Utah thing. Mix mayo, ketchup, a little dill - and dip everything in it. French fries, chicken nuggets... yeah.. Everything.

But mayo and ketchup together just makes prawn cocktail-style sauce...

I think we used to call that "French Dressing"? Anyway, it's gross.

No french dressing is yogurt based with green flecks of unknown stuff in it! That goes on salad.

Prawn cocktail-style sauce is, I think, 1000 island dressing...

"French" dressing has different meanings on different sides of the Atlantic.

And yes, I know on which side of the Atlantic the actual France is located.

*Note to self*
McDonalds+booze=sick

jtw I think you might have been on to something lol.

Thus making the british definition of french dressing the correct one!

Venus - I'm with you on that idea...every time.

EWW. Hope you're feeling better today though.

Is anyone gonna take the baton?

Not me, I'm headed to a sweet-ass PopKomm concert on Thursday. But if anyone wants to join us, feel free.

Where does one get this so called "baton?" Just joking. This will be my first possible tt Thursday night so I don't want to take the baton but how do ya'll fell about Whitetrash?

Doesn't White trash charge entrance fees after a certain time?

Hello everyone,

I've been in Berlin for a while now but still haven't see its bars. I'd sure like to attend this meetup for the first time next Thursday. Where will it be?

it seems we're open for suggestions this week. Somewhere not too too difficult to get to, where we could get 15 to 25 random English speakers squeezed in.

I just checked the whitetrash site, yes, they want money. It's 3 euros but it's featuring Evil Jared from the Bloodhound Gang. We would be guaranteed one hell of a disgusting and childish act which would be funny. We could forget casually conversation as I am sure that the volume would be intense.

That's the problem. The point of Thursday Night Drinks is supposed to be casual conversation. White Trash could be a post-drinks activity if we want to go somewhere in the area. (Too bad we just did Erdbeer.)

I am just got in from California last week, would love to make the meetup... am I correct from the subject title that it is tomorrow Sep 20? Ohio on Schlesische Stasse 35a in Kreuzberg is a cool bar... if more than 10-15 people show there are a couple bars right next to it to handle the overflow. Also the Lido right across the street has some bands playing for the popkomm. Short notice but doesn't sound like anything else has been nailed down.

cheers,
Paul

how about Bergstübl on Veteranenstraße (25). My boyfriend and I went there on a Friday and it wasn't too packed... plenty of seats together etc...

I say we go with the safer bet for space and go with Bergstübl especially since the weather is a bit chillier. When the weather is a bit better it makes it easier for spilling out of the bar type places.

Was super busy last week but looking forward to getting out tomorrow night.

Sounds great.

I have no opinion on the bar but looking forward to see it! See you there.

Hi! Just arrived on Saturday, and I will be out tonight to say hello. Any idea what time? Didn't see it mentioned in the previous posts. I understand that things get going late around here...

- Kurt

Usually people meet around/after 8. Unfortunately it was my turn to catch a cold now so I think I'll pass this time, but see you all next week!

Thanks, danielaa! Hope you feel better. See you next week.

cool see you at Bergstübl then!

on my way too!
Paul

Since no one seems to be taking the proverbial Bull by the horns, I suggest Scotch and Sofa at Kollwitzstrasse 18.

...should please the p'berg lot for once!

I can't make this week...

Yay! I love that place and I will have a new home as of Thursday (well keys at least...) so I can walk home!

Hopefully will be finished work by 9 so that I can come out for a least a couple minutes before bedtime. Very happy that it's not too far from home.

I was only thinking of you Sarah.

Oh! By the way, I'm out of books so if anyone wants to swap I'll be bringing along a few to exchange (a couple 'irish girly' ones and perhaps a not so girly one)

i'll try to make it, but no guarantees... the week well... not good.

GG - I have a few books I could trade with you if I can make it.

~Rose

I will drag phoenix-rose with me

Also will be there. And like alex_m, I too have a new home in the neighborhood and can move in on Thursday. Nice coincidence...

Haha, it's all about living in Prenzlauerberg... it's just a shame it took me so long to realise it!

I'll be there too, nice to see you all again!

Missed last week but I am on my way tonight.
Paul

ooh i hope that wa a typo! TOMORROW night... unless your all going out without me, that would be so uncool.

yes tomorrow got my nights confused tomorrow for certain.
best
paul
