Celebrate “Xmas” at China King

Jingle Bells

 A wise man once said, “Jesus is just alright with me. Jesus is just alright. Oh yeah.”

Join the C-ville Skeptics for “Xmas” dinner at China King on Dec. 26. You must RSVP or you’ll have to sit on the floor! Join our next regular discussion dinner here: http://www.meetup.com/The-C-ville-Skeptics-Group

What the heck is a Skeptic? You might be a Skeptic if:

  • You’re a big fan of science
  • You haven’t been to church in a long, long time
  • When you did go to church, you felt like “EVERYONE KNOWS I’M A PHONY!”
  • You start sentences with “I know I’m going to hell, but…” on a regular basis
  • You enjoy a good reason-based debate
  • You’ve ever said, “Evolution controversy… wait, there’s a controversy? No, seriously?”

    I hated going to church and I purposely thought really hard about porn just to see if the southern baptist pastor would suddenly turn and scream, “Sinner!!” at me.

    I was all in until I read this bit. Have they been introduced to the concept of parlie?

    I will say, meetup.com kind of sucks in certain ways, but it’s also enticingly handy for the non-computer-programmer as far as having a mailing list and online calendar all in one. But rest assured the group is real. And only 30% creeps!

    I kid…

    And now I have to go look up “parlie” …

    Do you need to borrow some plates? I can drop them off on the way to Amanda’s with the Davy lamp.

    @8 @7, a parlie is a mythical internet monster who shows up at random times to say things that don’t make any sense, yet somehow, still do.

    I’d love to continue to make dirty jokes concerning chinese food and sex but I must gear up to make the trek to the dreaded Barracks Rd for Xmas shopping. Wish me luck.

    The most difficult time I had in church was when an associate minister, who was engaged, was giving the sermon. The whole time, I was wondering if he, at that critical moment, thought of something different when he exclaimed “Oh, God”, than the rest of us….I seriously could not stop laughing all the way through the next three hymns…

    Barracks actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be. Turns out you can park in the BW3 lot and walk all the way from one end to the other faster than trying to find parking anywhere near the Michael’s/Barnes & Noble shitfest. Pete Gillen was working the Salvation Army bucket in front of Teeter and harassed me to donate by saying, “I know redheads are generous!” and pulling off his hat to show me his ginger head.

    @20 perhaps Pete was referring to your upcoming meal of chinese?

  22. 23 Dec 2008 at 1:57 pm

    @20, I have a feeling people will never discover that parking to be as cool as it really is, since they’re lardasses that would rather drive around for half an hour than brave the idea of walking all the way back to Old Navy from Panera Bread. Otherwise I would have told you to STFU because you just ruined Christmas.
