Man I wish.
Getting everyone to agree on a date and time for D&D is harder than any encounter you could face in-game
I swear, planning any sort of group activity with adults is an absolute nightmare
Plan the activity with a smaller group than you would want initially. Then invite others to an already organized event and rely on fomo to get people to go. Works great.
I have two small friend groups of four and in both is someone who often works weekend, so that’s always fun trying to plan something, let alone if I want to have both groups somewhere. It was honestly a miracle I could get all 6 of them in one place at the same time somewhat close to my birthday.
You have to lure them by asserting drink.
Food is great too
I’ve found that few people can resist the call of “New York Style Cheesecake Stuffed, Chocolate Covered, Graham Cracker Rolled, Strawberries.”
I have had friends say they put on a pound just reading the name, lol.
I can’t even get more than 3 people to join in a multiplayer session on steam and you don’t even have be physically there.
What game?
Various. Barotrauma, Phasmophobia, Lethal Company…etc.
Left out Deep Rock Galactic, since if you can’t get friends to joint, you can always make new ones. Only game where randos are never a nuisance.
You’ve got to get people to commit to a weekly slot, ad-hoc sessions lead to madness
It’s been over a year and there are still two people that haven’t finished their damn character sheets.
Or even just a board game night.
Maybe it just means boring guys. Drinking is a secondary activity, not a primary one.
Yeah this convo is either saying they’re going to a bar which can be fun. Or they’re 18-22 and drinking is as much about buying the alcohol as it is imbibing it.
When I was a student, a friend texted me one evening:
“Tequila. Name of our usual bar. Now.”
I replied “OK” and was there 20 minutes later. She was a little surprised, but learned exactly the lesson of this post that evening.
Proximity really makes friendships better, and at least easier. Some of the best memories are made on a whim. And even with the busiest people you can have a better chance of seeing them with a spontaneous text versus a long-term plan.
When I was a lad, it was two words, the first with a question mark, the second with a full stop
Pint?
Pint.
It is universal. A full conversation from when I was younger:
Øl?
Øl.
What about the time dimension though? Oh silly me it’s if course right now.
Pils?
Pils.
When I was younger (and it wasn’t about drinking but smoking):
?
!
A question mark? You got laid off a question mark?
I don’t see the connection?
I mean, the answer is actually yes (if I understand correctly that once a single question mark led to me being laid) , but I don’t understand how you come up with the question
I’m 7 months too late. I thought you were just making reference to How I met your mother’s episode where Barney got laid off of a question mark, and my reply is how Lily responded.
Makes sense, thanks for the (late) explanation xD
when I drink you drink we drink
I put my hands up on your pitcher
I am drank. Peace out.
Simple like caveman
