Press release:
Register Now for Skee-ball Season
What do you get when you combine the most unique bar in D.C. with the hottest new social league? The most fun way to roll away your winter blues! Beginning January 10, teams of eight will battle the best D.C. has to offer for a chance at glory, skee-ball greatness and a fun way to connect with people.
Skee-ball league games will be held at H Street Country Club every Sunday and Tuesday night for eight weeks. Once a week, each team will play two games to determine final rankings. The season will culminate with a one-day playoff and championship challenge.
Registration for season two at H Street Country Club is officially open . Players can start a team or join individually and find teammates. The deadline to sign up is January 10, 2010.
Ugh. I'm not sure what's worse - this or kickball. The United Guerilla Front may need to add a new section to the website: www.dieyuppiekickball.com
ReplyDeleteAnd a Press release? How Corporate. :(
How can something be "most" unique? If it's one-of-a-kind then it's unique. Something can't be extremely one-of-a-kind. And, I assure you, the H st. country club is not unique - see Brooklyn circa 5 years ago.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I second the first post: AYKGF may need a sister AYSGF.
it said, the most unique bar IN DC.
ReplyDeleteDUH. screw brooklyn. oh, and cop the attitude, or i'll have to skeeball you in your sleep.
MWAAAHHHAAAAHHAAAAAAAAAA!
um... I WIN!
The only reason this could possibly be interesting or desireable is because of the general lameness of H ST NE and DC in general.
ReplyDeleteIts like saying: "I received the highest score on the test!" when you're in a remedial grammar class.
Oh geez, lighten up. What about the bocce ball league in Capitol Hill, is that not acceptable either? The league sounds like a good time to me.
ReplyDeleteoop oop:
ReplyDeletegive me a jingle when you need a reference to get those invasive worms out of your brain.
i'll even fly your parents out from west virginia to fight the medical treatement you so obviously need.
oh, and i'll take pictures of you in the surgery room, so we can put them in advertisements ... to avoid similar instances of folks wandering out in cow fields without the proper protection.
you're welcome.
to you DC and H street haters:
ReplyDeleteWhy knock H street down?
Yes we are happy that our neighborhood is transforming right before our eyes. And every little thing counts. We are not jaded. It takes a lot to change things.
If you think H street is so lame why are even reading this blog? Haven't you notice prior posts?
If DC sooooo lame and H street is soooo 5 years ago, go back to your studio apartment in DUMBO, Brooklyn.....we don't want you here.
Life is about choices. Move out!
Goodbye
oop oop touched a nerve; analogous to that old children's game "Operation".
ReplyDeleteLooks like the funny bone was connected to the self-esteem bone, resulting in gratuitous deragatory references about oop oop's ancestors.
Alas, genetic lineage is not the least bit related to Skeeball at the "HSCC", unless you happen to be a bit insecure about your immediate territory.
As an aside, many read this blog because they stay tuned to happenings in all corners of this small city. Being informed rather than being provincial is tough to fathom for you insecure-types, isn't it?
That's right Oop! We're cool, we're urban, we play skeeball! We moved here from elsewhere, which makes us better than you, and better than the people who live in the place we came from!
ReplyDeleteIts true, because we told you so.
Now stay away from our echo chamber! 'Oops', I mean our blog.
WHAT?
ReplyDeleteHow is my comment related to oop oop's ancestry?
I think you are projecting....
whatever
geez people.
ReplyDeletedc will never be like new york. no place is as cool as new york. big deal.
but dc is a lot more interesting now than it was without these new places on h street.
we used to have only upscale restaurants, lame fudruckers type places and great ethnic dives in arlington. what we needed was exactly the types of places that are opening right in our backyard.
"If DC sooooo lame and H street is soooo 5 years ago, go back to your studio apartment in DUMBO, Brooklyn.....we don't want you here.

This is projecting. You create a false 'strawman' argument and then draw false conclusions.
Pointing out strawman arguments (such as yours) and concluding that the arguments stem from personal insecurity is not projecting, it is on point.
Everyone who doesn't like H St NE is a loser who lives in the basement of his parent's house in West Virginia!
ReplyDeleteYou know its true because I'm cooler than you. You know that is true because I overpaid for 1200 square feet of living space in Adams Morgan 2. 'Oops', I mean HSTNE.
But it was soooo totally worth it! 'Cause I'm cool now. Get it?
i think YOU are the one drawing conclusions about oop oop's ancestry....
ReplyDeleteyou not cool.
ReplyDeletemaybe i'll hire you one day.
maybe not.
Can't we all just get along?
ReplyDeleteWe can meet at H Street Country Club!
There's nothing better to heal the divide than a game of skeeball.

Two more skeeball machines added to downstairs next week.
This is truly the lamest thread ever.
