Considering coming to Slog Happy at the Blue Moon on Thursday? Well here’s a list of reasons why you definitely should!
*Paul’s bringing free books!
*$2.50 wells!
*You get to wear a nametag!
*It’s Lara’s birthday!
*I’m bringing some kind of baked treats to celebrate Lara’s birthday!
*75 cent schooners until 6:30 pm to celebrate Blue Moon’s 75th anniversary!
*U-District Pagliacci will make and sell whatever kind of pizza sloggers vote for!
And, uh, the tech nerds next door just gave me a clipboard and piece of paper that says “New Slog Features Beta Testing Protocol 015” across the top. Beta testing? Like… the fish? Whatever. I don’t speak geek. But it looks like some kind of sign up sheet and they told me to bring it to Slog Happy.
So come to Slog Happy on Thursday! It starts at 6 pm. It will be fun. Hooray!

ooh, ooh, is it Cookie-enabled Unique logins?
with the ability to have other logins if you want but they might get dropped from the thread?
Or do we all get Zunes that play music hosted on Line Out?
Yeah — I’m curious! Can you get us the new feature release list?
If the new feature isn’t comment registration, I will retaliate by spamming every post with reminders that Dan Savage supported stealing wine from pit bulls in 2002.
Seriously: we need comment registration. Please.
Alternately, is it too much to hope for a Slog without comments enabled at all?
@4 Yeah, it’s called the paper edition. Most of the Slog ends up there anyway.
Someday I’ll visit Seattle again and it will coincide with a slog happy. Have fun everyone.
I wish I could drive up and meet you all. Have fun and be slog happy.
Plus I will be there, lording over my too-cool-slog-kid minions and signing autographs, per usual.
I have framed my Joh autograph and mounted it above the bed to give the FMT some drive to do his best.
The caption above says “WWJD? What would Joh do?”
@4: it’s also called “not clicking on the comments.”
Whee, drinking! I don’t think I’ve been drinking in the U-district for ages.
Can I sign up for the beta test if I don’t go to Slog Happy?
It’s just off I-5 – 3 hours drive – go for it, kim!
I keep my Joh autographs in a display case, of course. With a silent alarm.
@11 You’re going to come and help me wheel Lara home on the hand truck I’m bringing.
Plus staying late and seeing bands for free!!!
@5, 10 — If only it were so easy to avoid the resident Slog comment “personalities” — you keep oozing out to infect the rest of the Slog content (like Charles’ post today “suggested by Fnarf!”) and even The Stranger’s print edition.
At least we know to avoid the Blue Moon Tavern; I guess that’s something
then send something in yourself, dumas.
well good, @15. stay far, far away from the blue moon. we don’t want your kind at slog happy anyway. we go there to have a good time, see our slog buddies, sample delicious food, and laugh a lot. if you don’t like SLOG, start your own fucking blog and stay outta this one! once again, notes from the unemployment line peeps get free drinks from me and greg.
Really looking forward to finally meeting y’all come Thursday.
Aww, I’ll be at a b-day dinner that night. What the hell is up with all my friend’s birthdays coinciding with Slog Happy!
But I still wanna sign up for the beta. Can someone put me on the list. Pretty please. 🙂
warning: the blue moon is cash only.
bonus: ill be there!
Gotta admit, it’s pretty tempting. Can we vote for kosher-for-Passover pizza?
Is it worth the drunken (2.50 wells, people. . . geezus) bus ride home to Beacon Hill? Hrm. Decisions.
