<[[caeb]]> i didn't remember it as THAT bad a night at winfield. might just be something about being the second most drunk person at the table.
feeling bleak, brother?
<[[Brennen]]> It was actually a pretty great night at Winfield, all things considered. The donut-shop trek felt kind of empty and tortured, though.
<[[hcB]]> it really did, didn't it. i'm not even sure why. i think it is because everyone was stuck in his or her own thoughts.
<[[Brennen]]> Alcohol was a factor, and fatigue, but yeah.
<[[caeb]]> we've never gone with such a crowd. maybe the change in dynamic removed a preventative to misery.
<[[Brennen]]> Funny how that works. Much of Grove Lake felt that way to me, this year.
<[[Brennen]]> Have you ever listed to Gillian Welch, ''Time (the Revelator)''?
:and the cooks cleaned the kitchen / with the staggers and the jags...
<[[caeb]]> nope. i take it i must.
<[[Brennen]]> Yeah.
<[[Molly]]> why the fuck do you continue to go to Brothers? why? why?! why?!?!??! just say no, man. they're yuppie capitalism at it's worst!
<[[Brennen]]> i swear to god it was only because i was with like 10 people and they ''all wanted to go''. or at least they were going along with going. except that no one i talked to actually ''likes'' the bar. in fact, everyone hates it, except that some people think it's the cheapest place you can drink downtown. it is cheap, but i'm not sure why this matters, especially in lincoln, where everything is so much ridiculously cheaper than out here that i can actually ''afford to drink in bars for hours on end'' - and shouldn't we all have learned by the age of 25 or so that really shitty bars are a completely false economy?
next time i'm ditching everybody and going to duffy's. or back to the watering hole. i mean, we ''left'' the watering hole for this frat-tastic hell hole. i love the watering hole.
<[[Alan]]> OTOH, jake has some funny stories about f**king with everyone at brothers while wearing a wig and a giant pair of women's sunglasses.
he also apparently f**ked with two mormons the other day. as they walked up he decided he wasn't going to let them talk about god for a minimum of 15 minutes. he was actually successful.
<[[Brennen]]> I forget Jake's still in Lincoln. Doubtless, a good time could be had in Brothers, but I'm always so appalled that I forget to be amused. Although I do remember going downtown from your place with a posse of people in mullet wigs and super-tight cutoff jean shorts...
I always regretted never being accosted by the mormons when I was in Lincoln. I'm pretty sure they even lived in my neighborhood - I always used to see them in pairs, on bikes, with the little messenger bags. I only ever got the evangelical crazies out in front of the union, and they just weren't that much fun.
<[[caeb]]> the real trick, for my money, is sending the mormons home with their faith irreparably shattered. that's probably the one benefit of former mormonhood.
<[[Brennen]]> see, at least your boyfriend has a superpower.
<[[Brennen]]> I kind of figure you could actually do some ideological damage to a lot of those kids if you cared enough. They're all, what, late teens, early 20s? And it's something they're theoretically required to do, not something they're doing because they've renounced their humanity to pursue a psychotic expansion of their cult. I've read a lot of [http://www.exmormon.org/mormon/mormon142.htm stuff like this] over the years.
<[[caeb]]> that's depressing as hell, but not all that suprising.
and yeah, my boyfriend's superpower is kinda great. i mean, traumatic, but great.
<[[Molly]]> your boyfriend was a mormon, ca? and what sorry bunch of 10 were you with, Brennen? sheep. baaaa. baaaah.
<[[caeb]]> as much a mormon as i was a christian, which is to say we were both a bit too into it. now he's really, really not.
<[[Brennen]]> UNL political science sheep.
<[[Molly]]> baaaaaaaah baaaaaaaaaah I say. wool is far too itchy to wear for long.
