*sigh* only two months and two days.

The raffle is for a tattoo, but it would be silly to think they'd be doing the tattoo AT the party........

Looks like if you won, you'd have about a month to figure out what you wanted to get on your 18th birthday.

Its good practice to take some time to think about such things anyway.

Oh, and its pretty common practice to charge minors more. You'll find in 2 months and 2 days that you still can't get into a lot of places, and the vast majority of those that do let you in will charge you $5 to twice as much more than 21+... Partially because the insurance costs a LOT more when you allow in minors, and partially in compensation for the fact that you can't spend any money at the bar (which is where clubs truly gain their operating revenue). You have two options... Deal with it for 4 years and have fun, or choose not to deal with it and stick to the house parties.

Yes, it sucks, and it seems unfair.. But everyone on this message board has had to deal with those facts of life.. Its quite survivable.

[quote=mollysynesthesi;2968565][quote=universol;2968542]Not trying to squeeze you out, just have to mind our p's and q's concerning minors and alcohol.

meh, i understand the whole minors and alcohol thing, my peers ruin shit for the rest of us. *shrug*

but i don't get this

No worries, the guys at 9 eyes, I am sure would post date a rain check for ya!! It would take that long just to have the consultation, come up with a design and get a drawing together, so you have a little bit of time. Love to have you out either way!!! Definately an entertaining crowd.

i know. but lets say, hypothetically, that a 14 yearold showed up. it would be 4 years before that child is legally allowed to be inked.

*shrug* and i'll probably forever blame my peers. they suck. because how many times have you seen that dumb kid who's fucked up/an underaged slut/an obnoxious kandikid plur fairy/ whatever. that's what people think when they think about my peers. they change their tone whenever i tell them how old i am. they're all like, isn't it past your bedtime?

Then they'd have plenty of time to think up a really badass design.

Dood, you need to introduce me to your peers. Fucked up underage plur fairy slutz? Srsly, you bringing them or what?

Oh yeah, quit whining. Come to the party on the terms of the organizers and have a good time. Those among your peers who are judged on their own merits aren't the ones bitching about cover on a rave board. It's called paying your dues - we all did it, and when you're old enough to not be a liability then you won't have to.

Gettin' closer. Awwwwwwww yeah.

LoL!!

That's why I like you, Tom.
You're good at making totally wrong jokes about things you're halfway serious about.

[zymote]

Halfway serious? Cyberina, I'm hurt - I thought you knew me better than that...

But yeah, if I was really into that kind of stuff, I'd have done a show at Afterlife by now.

See, there you go again with the totally wrong but slightly serious funnies.

What's the saying? In every joke there's at least an ounce of truth?

So yer bartending, eh?
I don't plan on drinking myself under the table quite as much as it seems most of the folks are. Hope you'll make sure there's enough drink for the undrunk.

[zymote]

I'll lay in a special supply of Shirley Temples just for you, extra cherries even.

Since Julie's 8 months pregnant I promised her I wouldn't go overboard this year either, as a show of solidarity. Looks like we'll be the voices of reason for the evening - isn't that a scary thought?

ME?! Shirley Temple pure.. Bwahahahahhahah!!!
I was talking about a lack of extremes......
Laying somewhere between the realms of big black Xes and total lush.

8 months already? My how the time flies.
You speak like she'll be around? That would be swell.

[zymote]

I just thought you liked anything with a cherry in it... If you'll be drinking, you've gotta try one of my Jenkem shots.

And yeah, Julie's going to be there. I don't know how late she'll be able to stay out, though. Right now, she's sleeping for two and all achey from the rapidly expanding mass inside her uterus - being pregnant must SUCK!

Oh how I miss me some Brad. I haven't seen much of him in the past couple of years for a variety of reasons on both ends. I may swing in quickly after I get off of work Saturday to give him a squeeze hello.
