ONTD_STARTREK Meet Up Recap: RIDICULOUSLY OVER DUE.

This post is an INCREDIBLY long time in coming; mea culpa. But better late than never, right?

...Right?

So, I hosted the second ONTD_Startrek meet up at my place, and we had ourselves a TOS Marathon, which of COURSE required the TOS Drinking Game. Which required…well, booze. Lots of Booze. And I believe the bacchanal that ensured can be summed up in two words, which I feel I am required by LAW to inform ya'll about:

WOKKA SAKI.

What? What's that you say? What the fuck is Wokka Saki??? WELL DON'T WORRY, MY BROTHERS-IN-GEEKERY,






1) NYC TOS Marathon: Part 1--wherein people show up, bring some GQ goodies, Romulan Ale is mixed, half of the drinking game rules are read, and we PARTY HARD!!!


2) NYC TOS Marathon: Part 2—wherein our cadets are tested! Winner gets the badge in the box, but can they beat the NO WIN SITUATION???


3) What happens when you have some GQMFs, a fan vid show, and the person who wrote the "I'm on a Ship" Parody? A MOTHERFUCKING SING ALONG, THAT'S WHAT!



SO LISTEN UP! IF YOU ARE IN THE NYC AREA, OR CAN BE, GO OVER TO THIS POST, CAUSE WE'RE PLANNING BRUNCH MOTHERFUCKERS, AND IT'S GOING TO BE EPIC.


NELLA OUT.

GOGOGOGO TO ARXEV'S JOURNAL!! NEXT MEET UP INFO THERE!

Seriously, I'm starting to LIVE for ST meet ups, they are just TOO MUCH FUN.

Is there some dorky planetarium thing we can do? There's GOT to be something somewhere...

DO TELL!

We should do a musical number is the appropriate colors or...something. We ARE NYC'ers, we got to up the ante with some Great White Milky Way

It would be like Forbidden Broadway only for Trek.

OMG I'm so sad I wasn't there, not the least because of that sweet, random bottle of liquor.

[identity profile] liu-xing.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
I AM SORRY I COULDNT GO EVEN THOUGH I SAID I WOULD, BB!!!

[identity profile] mirroriste.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
OH MY GOD I WAS SO DRUNK. WE WERE ALL SO DRUNK.

This is bringing back so many wonderful memories.

PS: I still have my wokka bottle. It's sitting on my desk, like a proud trophy.

Cole Porter's song "Experiment" = Kirk or McCoy (hell, maybe even Uhura, I like me some Uhura/Spock goddamn) singing to Spock Y/Y?!?!

I'M SO GLAD, BECAUSE I WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING AND IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO REMEMBER ALL THE GQ AWESOMENESS THAT HAD HAPPENED THE DAY BEFORE. I HOPE THE RECAP VIDS HAVE HELPED EVERYONE ELSE RELIVE THEIR DRUNKEN SHENANIGANS.

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
IT'S A GOOD PLEA. NO JURY WOULD CONVICT YOU, BB.

[identity profile] mirroriste.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT THAT CLIP OF THE NAKED TIME THAT YOU PUT IN THE VIDEO WAS A) APPROPRIATE, B) WELL SYNCED AND C) TOTALLY US

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I TRY, BB. I TRY.

ALSO, WHY IS GEORGE TAKEI SO SEXY WHEN HE FENCES?

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
PFFT, I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY HE'S SO SEXY WHEN HE ISN'T.

A: BECAUSE HE'S GEORGE MOTHERFUCKIN' TAKEI, THAT'S WHY.

[identity profile] mirroriste.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
GEORGE TAKEI = PROOF THAT ALL THE GREAT ONES ARE VERY VERY GAY

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
*SNORT* "Anything you can do" is SO TOS! Spock & McCoy and Nu!Uhura & Kirk. LOVE.

I'm refraining from making grabbing hands for the "Anything Goes" parody. *WANTS LYRICS TO SING AS SHE WALKS DOWN THE STREET!*

[identity profile] pippie-poppins.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
OH. MY GOODNESS.


YOU GUYS. NO SHAME, NO SHAME.

And I'm still really shocked that I knew a good 2/3 of the lyrics for I'm On A Ship. YEAH GQMF DUETS!

God I wish I could have taken part in any of this. I'm a trekker but it's so tiny and malnourished as to be undetectable by normal tricorders.

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-21 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry. There's a hypospray for that. ;)

SHAME IS FOR THE WEAK AND FOR VULCANS BEFORE JAMES T. KIRK GETS TO THEM.

AND I WAS SO IMPRESSED BY YOUR RECALL OF THE LYRICS.

And by 'this', I mean 'as prize'. Because it's going to be about the tiny nurse boy and girl!Bones.

YOU'RE SHOCKED? 8D I WAS DEEPLY TOUCHED. AND NOT IN A SEXUAL WAY.






OK MAYBE A LITTLE IN A SEXUAL WAY.




MAYBE A LOT.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

But we do epic pretty well here in NYC ;)

I LOVE the meet up recap posts myself, they just make me so happy to see all the other GQMFs in our comm meet up and having a grand old Trek time.

Where is it you group meets?

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-22 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
NEXT TIME BB.

I still have WAY too much liquor left over than needs another meet up for drinking purposes. ;)

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-22 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
THAT'S OK, BB, NEXT TIME, AND SOON!

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-22 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
AS IT SHOULD, BB, AS IT SHOULD.

Thank you to the Nth power for bringing that, BTW.

I go to the Milwaukee meetups, even though I'm from Madison.

I love all the meetup recaps, because it reminds me that there are other people having just as much fun as ours and that we're part of a ton of people getting together.

[identity profile] pippie-poppins.livejournal.com 2009-07-22 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
NO, I LIKE I FANGIRLED THE HECK OUT OF THAT PARODY TRYING TO MEMORIZE THE LYRICS.


LOL.




I'M OKAY WITH THAT.

star trek meet ups in nyc? this amazing!
not anyone of the people i have meet likes star trek, ONTD_Star Trek has made me quiet happy the past couple of weeks. How do you guys plan these things and when do you guys make days or something?
Is it like random people meet for the first time or do most people know each other outside of ONTD?

[identity profile] ink-n-imp.livejournal.com 2009-07-24 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yea! We're having another meet up this weekend actually, and you should totally come! We're all from ONTD_Startrek, and I certainly didn't know anyone before the first meetup (...well, ok there were a few people I knew from a Merlin Con I had gone to, but still, all fandom people). But we are an INCREDIBLY friendly folk that love new people.

the meet up post for this sunday is over at arxev's journal, she took over the planning for this one: http://arxev.livejournal.com/321141.html

We post announcements of meet up polls/information/planning at the ONTD_Startrek monday meetup posts, posted every monday at ONTD_ST. Just keep your eyes peeled for NYC announcements. I'm actually planning another meet up in August for a possible trip to the Rose Center for spacey things at the Museum of Natural History, and maybe a TOS/movie viewing. BUT KEEP YOUR EYE ON THOSE MONDAY MEETUP POSTS/my journal.
