WoF wants to meet Neil Gaiman.
 
MOD EDIT: This thread was split off from 'What are you reading?' after this post.

A long shot, but are there any central UK based members interested in a Neil Gaiman book signing in Birmingham? I'll definitely be there, and if anyone else comes maybe we could have a coffee or something.

Also you can't be under sixteen or I might get myself and this forum in trouble.

I totally would if it wasn't in the middle of the day...I havenae earnt any holiday at work yet. =P

Let's just say... yes.

Nepsotic 07-19-2013 03:05 PM

Aw shit. That sucks because I'd go. I don't do any reading, nor do I know who Neil Gaymen is, but it'd still be a fun experience.

Educate yourself.

Nepsotic 07-19-2013 03:10 PM

Actually, I almost definitely do, I can't really remember him but I have heard the name before.

Wings of Fire 07-19-2013 03:11 PM

It's okay guys I got this one

He wrote 'The Doctor's Wife'.

Nepsotic 07-19-2013 03:14 PM

Oh, the only decent-ish episode in the entire series. Okay, I want in.
Isn't Birmingham like, really far away?

MeechMunchie 07-19-2013 03:17 PM

It's 46 miles for me, but I'm lazy.

Vyrien 07-19-2013 03:19 PM

I'm going there on the 13th, fuck's sake.

It's twenty miles from me (My location needs updating) but I have no idea how far it is from [Funny].

I'll buy you cake!

MeechMunchie 07-19-2013 04:36 PM

Well, I have been meaning to eat some cake...

MA 07-19-2013 09:22 PM

i'd be up for this just for the meet up but i can't risk going through Birmingham without proper road tax. i'd get bent over and spanked by those fucking traffic warden dicks.

Wings of Fire 07-19-2013 09:26 PM

It's like public transport doesn't exist in Lichfield.

OddjobAbe 07-20-2013 12:40 AM

MA doesn't like buses, because he becomes self-conscious about all the old ladies and decent people judging him. To be honest, I'm the same way.

MA 07-20-2013 01:57 AM

holy shit Oddjob you hit the nail on the head, that's absolutely true. spookily so. but with more grannies and no where to sit. now stop monitoring me.

and i ain't chasing after another bus for no man. the buses like to leave early when i'm around, usually while i'm running next to them dropping spare change everywhere and banging on the fucking windows screaming obscenities.

Nepsotic 07-20-2013 02:40 AM

Usually nobody sits next to me on a bus, but when they do it's uncomfortable as fuck.

*splits thread*

Wings of Fire 07-20-2013 02:52 AM

This should be a blog.

Banned.

Nepsotic 07-20-2013 02:53 AM

Did WoF just ban himself?

Varrok 07-20-2013 03:04 AM

Of course not, that would be stupid!

...he banned Nate.

Also, I wish some famous writers visit my country. Sucks.

STM 07-20-2013 03:38 AM

But...Poland has plenty of famous writers...like that guy...and erm...that Mickiewicza bloke.

Varrok 07-20-2013 03:45 AM

It's quite hard to get an autograph from him

Vyrien 07-20-2013 04:30 AM

Well you're just going to have to try harder aren't you.

Varrok 07-20-2013 04:50 AM

Worked with Einstein, so why not.

i was gonna say "you had Anne Frank, stop being so greedy" until i realized she was German, and never set foot in Poland.

still. occupied Poland, Nazi Germany, same difference.

Wings of Fire 07-20-2013 04:37 PM

Copernicus, Edward Flatau, Ignacy Łukasiewicz, John Paul II, Laurie Juspeczyk, Stanley Kowalski, William Blazkowicz...

Come on guys.

You can easily combat it with your MA in Applied Cuntery.

MA 07-20-2013 05:22 PM

that's top secret information how could you possibly know that

Vyrien 07-20-2013 05:23 PM

I used my cuntometer, it exploded when I quoted your post.

MA 07-20-2013 05:28 PM

that's not the first time a cunt exploded in my presence.

i just hope it's the last.

Is it a device meant exclusively for measuring the length of a vagina? You use some strange toys, Vyrien

Nepsotic 07-21-2013 01:26 AM

Varrock, you wouldn't understand.

MA 07-21-2013 01:36 AM

Nep, you wouldn't understand. Sir Cockleby 'Hairy' Henry Lengthalot IV is here to fix everything.

MeechMunchie 07-21-2013 04:05 AM

what is this i don't even

Nepsotic 07-21-2013 04:22 AM

You don't understand

MA 07-21-2013 05:12 AM
