Let's gauge the interest in a NYC /lit/ meetup for February 1st or 2nd. I went to an NYC meetup about a year ago and it was actually fantastic. I'd propose that we do this over dinner at a fairly nice restaurant, the location of which we can discuss in this thread.

I've done well enough for myself in my life so I would be willing to pay for everyone's dinner if we go through with this, provided there are fewer than 10 people. If anyone wants to drink, that will have to be on them since drinking in New York is crazy expensive.

I'd hope that we can get 10 people together since you'll literally only have to pay for your transportation to get there.

I will make a discord once we get a fair bit of interest.

You do realize that Oneonta is as far from NYC as literally like Baltimore, right? They are technically in the same state, but if you want a meetup there, you'll have to make your own thread, since there's no way any reasonable person who was thinking of going to the NYC meetup would be able to switch his destination to Oneona or vice versa.

Hey /lit/ ladies! Threadly reminder that when you get a pedicure, it's not just about improving yourself and supporting the economy but it's about your pretty feet improving any social space you grace, including /lit/ meetups! Do the sensible, graceful thing and get the pedicure, girls. Decent society and people who love aesthetics need your tootsies looking sharp, hot, clean, supple and toned.

I'm wary of trying places like LES (Metrograph) and Bushwick simply because I expect that a lot of people who might come to meetup will be from NJ, CT, Long Island, outer parts of the boroughs, etc. I don't want to dissuade anyone from coming because the location is awkward from a transit perspective, especially since we're just going to be sitting and talking, which we can easily do around the major transit hubs of Penn State/Port Authority Bus Terminal/Grand Central.

How does everyone else feel about this? I can't think of a really compelling reason to make the location difficult for anyone, since the venue is not all that important considering what we'll be doing.

You might not be aware but there's a sizeable contingent of proud NYC "No-Fappers" who mainly congregate on a different website but come here to discuss Infinite Jest which we think is a medical manual to the No-Fap Devotee. We'd really love it if we could borrow five minutes from the group's schedule for a brief agnostic prayer and our No-Fap Affirmations, after which you have the floor, My Captain! We're really looking forward to this meetup. I hope it's warm enough so women who attend the NYC /lit/ meetup feel comfortable wearing open-toed shoes. Imagine if some quirky girl wore flip-flops, haha! They'll probably all be wearing those cynical mocassins and slipper type shoes that hide their sexual toes from leering footsexual perverts. This is the context that makes a sound shoe policy instrumental to a successful /lit/ meetup.

Why would anyone want to go to a "high-class" NYC restaurant? Those motherfuckers not only do not understand the definition of class, their understanding of what makes a person virtuous consists in how well they can banter and tell jokes at the country club.

High-class? More like "high-bill." Enjoy your paid women and large bills, you bunch of circlejerking ivy league queers.
