Well, aren’t you lucky….

And why not? =)

AshLeigh's avatar

Awww! bob_ is one of my favorite Jellies! Lucky! :)

augustlan's avatar

Nice! Hope you guys have a great time. :)

I like the idea of having a thread for this. Just make sure the jelly you’re meeting is ok with publicizing the event.

digitalimpression's avatar

I always wondered if fluther would have a fluther meet-up like youtube used to do before google took over.

I’m not so sure I’d survive the event though.

tinyfaery's avatar

Sure. I’ve met Jude/Mama Cakes/jjmah. I live about an hour drive from @nikipedia, but we’ve never met.

There were one or two jelly meetups, but I missed both. boo. I promise if there is another I will obtain a mustache for the occasion.

bob_'s avatar

Waiting at the airport!!! :D :D :D

bkcunningham's avatar

This is fun. Are you going to keep us updated? Have you met before?

Berserker's avatar

If I met someone from here I’d know I’d be happy as hell and would want all of Fluther to know lol, so having threads about it would be pretty cool. I mean they wouldn’t really be questions, but then neither are party threads…I don’t see the harm in another exception.

You all will know when @Symbeline and I meet. The world will just explode! We’re that badass.

Berserker's avatar

Aye. We’re like The Silver Surfer and The Incredible Hulk; If we fuck fight, we’re so badass that the planet itself can’t withstand us. :)

fundevogel's avatar

I want to be at ground zero when that happens.

Berserker's avatar

oh I bet you do :D

Keep_on_running's avatar

Aren’t you guys afraid the other is a serial killer or something? How do you know the other Jelly isn’t some warped, deranged person? You seriously never know. Or are you just willing to take the risk? Flying to see them sounds a pretty big deal. :P

fundevogel's avatar

P’shaw. We’ve been hanging around here for years, the creepers don’t last that long.

AshLeigh's avatar

Pfffft. If any of you are a serial killer, I want to meet you. I’m obsessed with serial killers. I need your damn autograph!

Keep_on_running's avatar

@fundevogel I don’t know, there are people out there with some pretty elaborate online identities. Oh well, I guess life is about taking chances.

AshLeigh's avatar

Meet in public places.

Keep_on_running's avatar

Yeah, I wouldn’t do it any other way.

digitalimpression's avatar

Pretty sure you have to be warped and deranged to get to 50k lurve.. but I still wouldn’t mind meeting @marinelife. xD

KateTheGreat's avatar

@Keep_on_running Oh, I know @Symbeline is a deranged psychopath. That’s why I love her!!! Hahaha.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Symbeline is my favorite crazy person. :D

Berserker's avatar

Aren’t killers too busy killing people to hang out on the Internet all evening? XD

That’s what I want people to believe. :D

AshLeigh's avatar

If I were going to be a serial killer I don’t think I’d pick anyone from Fluther to kill. You bitches are crazy. ;)

Berserker's avatar

@AshLeigh That’s a always a compliment for me. :D

Also, forehead tentacle sex. Someone on here knows what I’m talking about.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Symbeline, I meant it as a compliment. :)

Berserker's avatar

@AshLeigh I know. :)

Just you wait, someone’s gonna come along and tell us to get a room. XD

AshLeigh's avatar

@Symbeline I hope they do! :D

zensky's avatar

So jealous! Give my best to my communicator.

chyna's avatar

@digitalimpression I have met @marinelife in person and she is not warped at all! I also met @jillthetooth, Janbb and Auggie. And we met out in a cabin in the hills of WV, not in a public place. We lived to tell about it.

@nikipedia and @bob_ Have a great visit and tell us how it went!

JilltheTooth's avatar

Don’t believe @chyna , we discovered that we’re all creepy serial killers, but found it was more fun to swap stories than to creepily kill each other in a serial fashion. That’s why we all agreed to meet in a remote mountain cabin.

JilltheTooth's avatar

There were also lots of M&Ms. Not sure how that matters, but an expert could probably correlate it to our particular violent pathologies…

KateTheGreat's avatar

@Symbeline Scooch on over here and let me feel ya up with my tentacles!

cookieman's avatar

@Nikipedia: What kind of sandwiches are you bringing?

augustlan's avatar

In addition to that remote cabin meet-up, I’ve also met McBealer and ForrestGeek. All great people!

SpatzieLover's avatar

Update @nikipedia? How’d it go?

Judi's avatar

I hope @bob_ didn’t turn out to be a serial killer! Or @nikipedia

Jude's avatar

I’ve met tinyfaery and lucillex3.

cookieman's avatar

Perhaps @nikipedia forgot the sandwich and @bob_ snapped.

Keep_on_running's avatar

Okay! You can all quit making fun of my “serial killer” post now… I get it, but, still stand by my comments.

Judi's avatar

@Keep_on_running , I wasn’t even thinking about your serial killer post! I was thinking about all the episodes of Unsolved Mysteries and Forensic Files I have watched!

Bellatrix's avatar

@Keep_on_running, your post was valid. As much as I hope nobody here is violent or would do another jelly harm, you can’t assume that’s the truth. We only see what people want us to see in this medium. I certainly wouldn’t mock your wise reminder.

nikipedia's avatar

@bob_ was the best host ever and I was like the lamest guest ever. I threw up on the subway. And that was before any tequila.

Also, regarding the sandwich thing: the guy doesn’t even own bread! You know what I got when I asked for bread? A tortilla. No joke.

Berserker's avatar

@Keep_on_running Yeah. Don’t mind me, was just fuckin around. People have often got nasty experiences from meeting online people. Maybe not enough to make it commonplace, but it has happened. One always needs to be careful. My intent wasn’t to mock your post in any way. I just mess around too much, sorry. XD

@nikipedia He doesn’t have bread?? Oh man…ah well, prolly won’t change all the sandwich jokes. :D

Keep_on_running's avatar

@Judi and @Bellatrix and @Symbeline

No worries. It’s just every second post here seemed to make fun of it, and I know it seems strange to those who have met other jellies without any sort of murdering involved lol, it just seems risky to me. (I used the word “seem” way too much in that sentence…)

@nikipedia Woot! You’re alive. ;P

chyna's avatar

Yes @nikipedia is alive, but where is @Bob_?

Berserker's avatar

@Keep_on_running Well it’s true, we did kinda go haywire with it. But as you do say, meeting in a public place is best. There usually isn’t many other ways to meet though, since you pick up the person at the airport usually, or something like that. I guess that doesn’t stop either one to be a maniac once in private. :/

…where is Bob?? XD

AshLeigh's avatar

@nikipedia killed @bob_ for his lack of bread…

Berserker's avatar

Yeah he was all like, tortilla?? What the HELL man?? XD

bob_'s avatar

@nikipedia was the best guest ever. And of course I didn’t kill @bob_, erm, I mean, I, @bob_, am safe and sound!

Berserker's avatar

@bob_ I see you typing.

He’s alive!

SavoirFaire's avatar

Hooray for fun times and no murders!

In retrospect, we shouldn’t be surprised that @bob_ doesn’t have any bread. That’s why he needs the rest of us make sandwiches for him.

bob_'s avatar

@SavoirFaire Exactly! Why do you think I never ask for tacos? I’ve got my own!

Judi's avatar

I just saw @nikipedia on another thread. :-) Thank God their both alive. ~

augustlan's avatar

Yay for live jellies!
