Why did someone throw a travel mug of coffee at you? Did you look sleepy?

The Iceman Cometh at the Goodman got a rave in the NYT today, but I guess it's ending mid-June? Chance of extension?
― World Congress of Itch (Dr Morbius), Friday, 4 May 2012 13:55 (twelve years ago) link
It's extended once already, might extend more. Also, Tracy Letts's translation of Three Sisters, with a zillion Steppenwolf ensemble members, will be up and running then.
And hey, I'm bringing An Interrogation Primer to the NY Fringe Festival in August.

Eazy, I will go, esp if you get an air-conditioned venue.
― World Congress of Itch (Dr Morbius), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:21 (twelve years ago) link
Here's hoping it'll have a/c and not require climbing more than three flights of stairs.

congrats eazy!

I sent it to my coworker who is an avid Bears fan and her immediate response was, "Ha. Ass."
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:50 (twelve years ago) link
i normally go at 1:30, but can probably go at 1 if that will work better. i don't have a location in mind.

tortoise was pretty fun the other night. they were very tortoise-y. dan bitney (who is apparently from madison) looks a lot like chris elliot, right?
― 40oz of tears (Jordan), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:51 (twelve years ago) link
I'll go if we go at 1 and you pick a place (because three different people are asking me to select three different places for a drink tonight, dinner Monday, and lunch in like two weeks and I feel burdened).
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:51 (twelve years ago) link
ok i'll make sure i can go at 1 and think of a location. falafel sounds kinda good right this second but also it's only 10 a.m.
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:52 (twelve years ago) link
Thank you for lifting some of the burden from me, n/a. You are a true friend.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 14:57 (twelve years ago) link
You guys go to lunch too early. I usually go at 11 or 11:30.
― Jeff, Friday, 4 May 2012 14:58 (twelve years ago) link
I never go to lunch until like 1:15 or so because I like to be able to sit and read, so I want the lunch rush to die down a little.

i was originally forced into a 1:30 lunch but now i like it because i'm more productive before lunch and it makes the afternoon is nice and short
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 15:02 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, me, too.
Speaking of my burdens, can anybody think of an interesting place to eat lunch that's Red Line accessible between Fullerton and Thorndale? That seems like it should be easy, but of course I'm blanking.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 15:03 (twelve years ago) link
Wait that me too was to jvc. I am not more productive before lunch, as evidenced by my participation on ILX.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 15:04 (twelve years ago) link

Aw, that's 77 so it didn't work. Still. You're weird, dude. Have lunch with me and nick and I'll pour borscht down your chest so it will make a nice contrast with the cool air.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 15:08 (twelve years ago) link
yes everyone should come have lunch with us at the place i haven't chosen yet
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 15:10 (twelve years ago) link
let's all go and apply more pressure on n/a's unmade decision

I eat lunch pretty late. Usually around 2. But I often have a piece of fruit around noon to tide me over.

Oh, and I probably can't join you guys today, but I'll go some other time for sure.

i love the mango/sticky rice dessert from thai pastry.

I'm starving right now.
― Jeff, Friday, 4 May 2012 15:57 (twelve years ago) link
I may have lunch with yous. I need to pick up my contacts. Can we eat near Level?
― Pita Malört (Je55e), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:28 (twelve years ago) link
we could do bombay wraps again
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:29 (twelve years ago) link
or mezza (also on wells)
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:31 (twelve years ago) link
Either sounds good. Mezza is Mediterranean? Do you still want falafel? If yes, let's go there.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:33 (twelve years ago) link
Those places are not near Level.
― Pita Malört (Je55e), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:34 (twelve years ago) link
Well propose a place near Level, then.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:35 (twelve years ago) link
i looked on the map, but maybe i was looking at the wrong place.
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:36 (twelve years ago) link
the problem is that level is the opposite side of the loop from me. we could do the macy's food court?
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
Oh, sorry, Nick.
Macy's would be very fine. Or any place convenient to all of us.
― Pita Malört (Je55e), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:39 (twelve years ago) link
I love the Macy's food court. Is that sufficiently convenient for you, Nick?
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
yeah it'll take me 10-15 minutes to get over there but that's ok, i've done it before
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
I'm fine with that if Princess Jesse is.
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:43 (twelve years ago) link
Shit. nevermind. i forgot i have to be somewhere at 1:30
:(
― Pita Malört (Je55e), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:44 (twelve years ago) link
Sorry to muddy the waters!
omg
― Polly biscuit face (carl agatha), Friday, 4 May 2012 16:45 (twelve years ago) link
Nick. Falafel?
But if you guys could still go to the Macy's food court that would be good.
