This event and anything else fancy in Texas, I guess....
Chelly... Like, do you booze? Cause, you've guilted the shit out of me for being a sloppy drunk... I feel compelled to pick up your and/or lude's booze. Seems to compliment dropping a drink on you, or whatevers. Would that be weird....?
Given past and future drycleaning bills, it would probably be a wash, as it were.
redx on
They moistly come out at night, moistly.

LOL i'm sorry, i didnt mean to guilt you, just a little teasing lol. it wasnt a big deal at all i just thought it was funny. i am not a big drinker, i dont like the taste of most alcohol, i'm broken. sometimes i like margaritas if they're particularly good, but a lot of the time i just take a sip or two from lud's drink and say "yup still dont like alcohol" lol
I gained a (healthy) 15 pounds in the last year, and I haven't had any reason to get my suit altered until now. If it doesn't fit and I wear a button-down and tie with slacks, will I be teleported into a hell dimension from which I cannot escape?

Just make sure to wear shoes you'll be comfortable line dancing in

Best part about cowboy boots.
Great for line dancing.
Great for bull riding.
Both of these activities will be mandatory between courses.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies
This isn't PAX Yankee, and I think it's important we make this inaugural PAX South Fancy Dinner have it's own entirely correct Texan vibe.
Let's be clear about what is appropriate and what isn't.
Not Okay
T-shirts, don't care what you're wearing with it
Golf shirts
Shorts
Jeans
Any kind of hat indoors
Chaps (assless or otherwise)
Spurs
Okay but Kinda Silly
Bolo tie
Cowboy boots you don't actually know how to walk in
Bigass belt buckle you didn't win in a rodeo or 4H show
A tux
Entirely Okay
Suit
Long Sleeve button down with slacks and tie
Long Sleeve button down with slacks, sweater, and tie
The point is to feel all gussied up, not to make people uncomfortable or to make anyone feel like they can't come and be friendly just because they don't own a suit. That last bit would be plain ol' ungracious, and that simply isn't acceptable. Keep in mind that some people will be wearing suits, because that's what they're comfortable in and, in some cases, because their significant other has insisted upon it in no uncertain terms...either way let me assure you their choice of dress isn't a comment on anyone else's.
It was pointed out to me that it might be a good idea to touch on the female dress code, as well. So, I shall do so:
Ladies, I'm certain you all already know how to dress so I won't take up your valuable time aside from saying that if anyone shows up dressed like and shaped like Daisy Duke I won't be held responsible for what happens to your car.

what if they're dressed like daisy duke but shaped nothing like her
Because who wouldn't want to turn their legs into billowy, amorphous denim tubes?
Look, sometimes you just need to be able to smuggle a watermelon, a human infant (in carrier) and up to three terriers in each pant leg at the same time.
Don't ask questions, just get the pants.
I'd love to Spool, but PAX isn't in the budget at the moment. Unfortunately, a significant portion of the budget went to replacing my furnace last year.
But I'll live vicariously through the posts of the people who are going.

Gonna rock a suit, too. Really looking forward to the dinner, especially after seeing that menu.
Suit has been purchased. Boots are being broken in.
So...
How rowdy are you bitches going to get post fancy dinner. I give zero fucks about pax and I need to know if I should get a room, or if I will be pathetically sober enough to drive back to Austin or not.
Yes, I didn't set up a paypal account so $55 per person on arrival plz, and I will have google wallet transfers possible then as well. If you have a gmail account it's super easy to set up and transfer money through to me. https://wallet.google.com

I need to maximize my "don't wear shirt / pants at all while IMing work people" opportunities
I am getting a suit just for this event!

Fly to San Antonio, I have two extra passes.
I don't own any drapes yet.
(Err.... Gone with the stuff reference not meanness)

Nonono
Best part about cowboy boots is they have about a 2+ inch heel.
I get that it's a historical and cultural thing but you don't see guys walking around Chicago in zoot suits and fedoras all over the place.
got it
You don't?
damn, cancellin' my trip to Chicago
Ahhh Jncos! That takes me back

There is still opportunity to get a seat if you're nterested in joining us!

So when/how do you want to get paid for this? My bank card is at the ready.
Aw yeah gonna be so fancy.

Also, @spool32 how are we doing payment? $55 in cash before we sit down? I want to try to avoid pulling a deebaser this year.
i dont even know what this means
so hurtful
waitin to collect cash until after the booze has started flowing
