The Room

Special BMN Valentine orgy ... er, I mean, event:

 

'The Room' is ... what happens in real life.  You could be with your loving woman and all of a sudden BOOM!  She's in bed with your best friend or a family member. "


O, yeah!

 

Gather time 7p.

Show time 730p.

 

 

Plenty o'parking in a safe neighborhood on Churchill Avenue 'tween Cowper and Waverly (see Google maps arial view).  

Enter thru the RED GATE and follow the path into the clubhouse.  Look for the lights on inside.  Do not tread on the lawn/green, thanks.

$5 cover charge for venue rental.  I cannot promise $1 beers at this point, so please bring your own drinks, food and any other personal accouterments you desire.  

10 comfy chairs onsite (first come/first served) and lots of standard fold out chairs; so, bring your campy chair, futon, floor palette, etc. if that is a concern.

    Gretchen, hopefully you won't have to "back" out again. Ar ar.

    I'll definitely be there. I can't let my attendance record fall further behind than Diane's.

    But mine is perfect. And, what? My behind has fallen? That's a harsh thing to point out. btw. our first anniversary is just around the corner aren't we going to do anything special, Poopykins?

    Oh, hai guys.

    Looking forward to catching this movie and meeting fellow lovers of bad cinema, but I have a question: Is this an outdoor venue? I've never been to Bowling Green Park. Thanks!

    Anyway, how's your sex life?

    @SarahStroup It has previously been determined that those who don't behave badly enough must stand outside & watch through the windows. @Dean Perhaps putting Clubhouse in the location title would help?

    Or read the description below the title for a more complete ... uh, description :)

    If anyone gets lost, don't give up, just ask Gretchen for directions.

    Maybe your location title should be, "Carefully read full description, or get lost" & Ian of the Gate Code should use, "Read entire description or be denied access."

    Hold on, Dean, you're saying The Room is in a room? But which room is The Room?

    I believe it's the room with the greasy pillowcase, strewn with rose pedals and schmalzy soundtrak.

    Jeez Dean. I know you love bike riding, but pink pedals & chain grease on your pillow is going a bit far.

    well, since all I found was a couple of locked gates and dark buildings, I'm going home. Dunno if you're punking the new kid or what, but maybe next time.

    Sarah, if that's a joke, it's freakin' hilarious. If it's not a joke, well, I can't say I've never marked my calendar incorrectly.

    Ha! You know what's weird? I never have! Wonder how that happened? What else have I misread? Are we watching The Room? What day is it? Ahh! I'm losing my mind!

    Just speculating here, but, perhaps, you're Gretchen's long-lost, not-evil twin. (We adore her so I'm sure we'll love you.) You've wandered into her domain so maybe her spirit is taking possession over your perception of time and space.

    Posted January 20 at 9:05 PM

    Sarah

    That would explain it... Well, at least I'm not evil ;) Maybe I should just go lay down until it all passes. That should minimize any danger to myself and others!

    That was AWESOME! Thanks for hosting, Dean. But why did we have to turn the lights out and pretend we weren't there at one point?

    Oh, hi guys. Man, I had the most annoying dream last night. I dreamed I drove over to Palo Alto for a meetup but it turned out I had just stupidly wrote down the wrong date! Phew, glad it was just a... oh. Oh, no.

    Sometimes my weak eyes have more fun than I do. I should take them out, rattle them bones and pop 'em back in. Sure 'nuff if I did not first read that Sarah had a ball of yams. And if that was in reference to her dream, she must have one mean yam'a'pajama. Right about now, my clock of untimely meeting dates appears a bit Daliesque. Oh hi, Salvador.

    I'll remind everyone on the big night, but if you have a texting habit cellphone attachment perversion, you must sit in the back, way in the back, or go outside ... and, possibly pay a second admission charge to get back in ;-)

    So Dean, were you annoyed by this sort of thing recently, or did you observe such behavior during one of our BMNs?

    Dang Ian. Can't you just ask your friend to have his surprise party on another day?

    Or bring her/him over to BMN for the surprise-of-a-lifetime.

    I got a really bad case of sexagenarianism just before I turned 40, but I've spent the last decade drinking copious amounts of red wine, & I feel great now* (*Individual results may vary)

    Follow Mike's link- a retro video game of The Room!!!Mike- this is wonderful. I have been playing this and it's so bad/good. Johnny gets stuck sometimes but you just have to move him out of the screen to get him unstuck.

    You have to watch at least the first two and a half minutes of this:

    Nice room for "The Room". Everybody thought it was a bad movie. Funny conversations at the end. Good showing, new faces, lots of laughs. Let's do it again!
  • Julian
    Duuuuuuuudeeee....after watching this, like ...... The Separation was a total letdown.
