It's a rare, fancy thing to have something like, half the Geeks full-time staff on-hand for one of yours quizzes. Fancier still, a weekend full of wonder, reward, and Very Good Times.
I've been up the northern end of the 25, back down again, Mariposa Basin Park and My Living Room; sunshine, lollipops, and moonbeams. Kind of like The Hobbit, without all that explicit danger, stuff, and things. We're chilling at Casa de Kohen, watching stupid YouTube videos, and laughing. This is the stuff of Leagues, Legends, and League of Legends. I'll give you my username, if you will.
Tonight! We had a lovely grip of teams, all batting cages and digital photo frames. I have good nights, and I have Good Nights, and with that - you'll probably already know the rest. Tonight was one of those; just a god damn good night. Cheers for that, with all your reds and other colors. Queue all that Buffy up, and listen to the teeth of nothing.
Until next week (Memorial Day weekend, we'll be kickin' it!) In all your finery, and all your wicked nothingness. Close your eyes, and you'll burst into flames. I'll check you then.

Although to be fair, that team that "won flowa on naahil," were the real racists in the room. Still, it was a great intoduction to QM Jason, visiting us from Oregon who sat in on our quiz last night to give Fernando a round off. Also, he edits the quiz, so he wasn't going to be able to play it anyway, so I figured I'd just put him to work.
Last night was filled with more than myself, Fernando, and Jason though. In total, seven Quizmasters were at O'Niell's. They would have won the quiz, too, but I wasn't going to let anyone else in my company steal my shine, dammit. So, I bumped 'em out of the running so that you, my lovely quizzers, had a chance to win and then rub it in their faces.
And it was good. How good? Well, remember when I said last night during our subreddits round that someone needs to make a r/RestoomReviews before the end of the night?
Well, IT EXISTS! Geeks Who Drink's greatest contribution to the world. It's been live for 12 hours. Make it the best subreddit ever guys!
I had a blast hosting with Jason last night. If you ever find yourself in Oregon, do check him out. Until next week quizzers!

Because I totally played the Polyphonic Size's seminal 1982 cover version of that song, and nobody really cared too much. Dude, it's so good.
This weekend was a gale force wind of truly comic book proportions. To say that events were "done up" doesn't even come close to the heart of the last several days; they were simply epic, and now I need a little normalcy. I'm not sure what to do with all this newfound emptiness.
Last night's quest was as motherly as possible; (Other) Eric attempted to align our maternals beneath one microphone to read a round for you guys, but mine wasn't quite feeling up to it, so his marvelous plan will have to be realized another holiday. Also, I'm not sure how or why our Sunday's Finest was in Mach-5, but holy hell did we cruise through that one like Speedracers.
Until next time, wherein we'll be inundated with Quizmasters from near and far (our yearly gathering is this weekend in Taos!), I'll check you then. In the meantime, try not to be thrown off a building, and dance me until the end of love.
