The first, only, and perhaps last Texas meetup went down yesterday. spencerflem has been living in the further realms of my neck of the woods, so we met up at Pedernales Falls (pronounced "perda-nahl-us" if you're white, for some reason, trust me). We trekked around the mostly-dry riverbed (pictured in link) for about a half hour, then went further down the river to hang out on a sandy shore, in the shade. Heat index somewhere in the mid 90s F. I kinda regretted not having a swimsuit.
We talked some physics and talked some hubski, mostly conspiring against every single one of you in an effort to seize absolute power from mk and ruthlessly rule this domain over the 15 hapless users still around from our castle in Texas. But we decided against it. Instead, a family showed up, and we threw rocks at one specific rock perched on top of another rock a few feet off the river bank until someone knocked it into the river. It was strangely bonding, two small groups, complete strangers, silently making a pact to do the most primitive thing imaginable.
Then we went for bar-b-que. It was sooo dope, spencerflem picked damn well. The brisket melted in my mouth. Mrs. am_Unition (be absolutely sure to call her this if you ever meet her) couldn't tag along, unfortunately, but we probably couldn't have done bar-b-que if she had. We woulda had more fun at Pedernales with her, though. Once the sunscreen made it into my eyes, I don't think I was very enjoyable, lol, but spencerflem was a great sport about it. Here we are after successfully late-lunching:
One of the things I mused to him about was how maybe Hubski is what a social media website of highly successful people looks like. Mostly, the community is busy out in meatspace, but still checks in from time to time.
kleinbl00, he's headed your way! Take care of mah boy.
Next, I will hopefully see wasoxygen in December.
