Escapism Vancouver '09

[NeoAC]

Hmm. Almost there just go a little more east think Nova Scotia.

I'm with Shiuz, Nova Scotia would be a much better spot for the meeting. Plus then I could actually drive to wherever the heck we go.

You'd think the Canadian shindig would be in Toronto. Sure the city sucks, but wouldn't it be easier for most people, what with being more central and all?

If it's the summer of '09, I'd be down. That is, of course, assuming my billionaire playboy lifestyle doesn't interfere.

being that I can fly to toronto for a lot cheaper, i would like this option

This is one of the reasons why I hate living in Ontario, so far away from the action...

Yup! I can't afford the ticket out west. Poop!

Yes! TO is the way to go! Even though it IS a hole. But, I only live an hour away from said hole so it works out!

Maybe we should have 2 at the same time? Connected Via webcam and internet?
Ehh? Awesome?

b) Vancouver is a nice city.

If this is true, then why did a woman in a power wheel chair almost hit me as she sped down the sidewalk?

He said Vancouver people are nice.
Richmond is slightly different.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

I suggested Vancouver because I couldn't possibly make it to Toronto. I didn't mean to neglect all the Eastern Canadians/Americans

 

[TheGhostOfSin]

Damn you all, come to England.

 

[Spartan Bannana]

I would come, if I could afford a plane ticket. Also, it'd be a little awkward for a 13 year old to show up.

You've still got my letter, so...

Pedophiles aren't really the issue, it's hanging out with a lot of people who are all at least two years older then me

I'm 12 years older than you...wow I feel old.

Anybody else care to meet up in Maryland? Baltimore? I can't travel, seeing as how I have a bit of a phobia and no drivers license or passport, but I could probably hitch a ride to a Baltimore meeting for us mid-East Coast Escapists.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Damn you all, come to England.

I'd love to, but London is expensive, plane tickets more so.

there are 2 options

1 fly west jet, they are WAY cheaper than air canada but you have to fly into/out of hamilton to really pick up the value

2 fly into buffalo from a nearby american city, american flights are cheaper, well as long as the airlines exist

i'd like it to be in toronto, wouldn't have to spend tons of money on hotel, food and flight

London is for the tourists, come to a fun (and far cheaper) city.

Like Manchester, I live here therefore it is already better.

 

[qbert4ever]

I would come, but I live in New Hampshire. Which, if you didn't know, aside from being boring as hell with a capital that smells of ass (no joke. Septic problems.), it is also very far away from this so-called "West Coast".

 

[Blind0bserver]

I live in Kansas City, MO. I'm in the frick'n middle of the continental United States. It's a pain in the ass getting anywhere.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Like the Syndey meet up, it's likely better that Escapists across the globe set up meetings in convenient places for them and others, since most of us likely lack the finances to fly great distances to see our fellows. Hence why I suggested Vancouver for us Western Canadian/Mw United States Escapists.

As do I. So it's doubly better than London.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

I recall there are a lot of UK escapists, and it's pretty easy for you guys to get around your country, you guys really should have a meetup there. Unfortunately I was there in September and I really can't afford to go again.

 

[Gotham Soul]

The only thing I remember about Vancouver is seeing a Starbucks at every single street corner, and a Virgin Records.

Virgin Records... Those BASTARDS! I didn't think we had Virgin Stores in Canada... turns out that it's just pedestrian Calgary that misses out on them.

The Virgin Megastores in Europe were awesome, I really wish we had those here.
