USA HBE

Post by NYDingbat »

It's already Thanksgiving! Even though we play pretty fast and loose with the deadline, if we're gonna do this, we should think about gettin' shit started if we're gonna do it.

I'm still waiting on my goodies from last year. That shit ain't right - I know we don't have to have shit to each other by Christmas - but nothin' as of the following Thanksgiving? That's fucked. This shit has gotta be punishable by somethin' or other.

Indeed. This is a tradition that stands above and beyond religions and time frames of some human-imposed time constriction upon the nature of the Modern Drunkardists.

We simply need someone who has the tenacity and know-how to collect email addresses, and send reminders privately. It's quite enjoyable. send something form the area in which you DRINK! and share it with one of us who chooses to participate.

Oops, didn't mean to sound like I have anything other than free booze for someone else, to offer here...

I'd do it but due to the usual reasons I'll make a Euro HBE thread instead

Do you like booze?

Do you want to join in the Christmas spirit?

If you answered yes to any of these questions you should join the Holiday Booze Exchange.

I will put your names into a hat (or other suitable receptacle) and draw pairs. I will send you the details of this lucky person and you send them boozy christmas gifts. You will in turn be sent boozy gifts from another participant

Essentially a secret santa for the board.

I will make the cutoff for inclusion the 10th of December, two weeks from now.

I'll do this for you 'Murricanese, Trvst.

I want to do this I think i could find some local-ish booze. I just need to make sure I don't forget, and am not to selfish with my booze money.

Damned fine! Mr. Viking and I welcome each of you to participate, in our respective continents and Islands. There is no minimal amount to participate. Maximum number of Modern Drunkards is always encouraged, in everything we do, together, as a Tribe.

Your personal messages to us will not be shared with anyone. These will be written down and then your PM will be eradicated. Internet forces cannot see these things (Looking at you, Lush City, unless they were to join FRK's forum for us, and I have not seen any ISP locations from such bastards).

The more, the merrier.

DRINK!

Mistah Willies, you are a gentleman and a scholar. I'm sure you are also running the HBE this year so you ensure that I get you as my recipient, as I did last year and spoiled you rotten. Only Thirsty could outdo me in the HBE department.

Is that who had me?? After I hosted that bastard at the MWI?? (Though he did cook a deeelicious breakfast for everybody one of the days.) Hmph. I've certainly slipped a few rungs on the Surreal ladder. He's left meetings at work to take my calls. Now I don't get an HBE. >sniff<

Oh, I'll take care of ya. It's kind of like reciprocation, except that it's more like appreciation for the finer drinks of life.

Ya done spoilt this here drunkard injun for some good Martinis.

Like a clear drink:

PM me your delivery address.

I'll pick names out of the MDM fez, and you will be notified via PM who your recipient will be.

No one knows from whom they will be receiving their gift.

Something form their own neck o' the bottle.


Cheers!
