Fantastic callback. I didn’t get any responses to my personal though (except for a couple guys offering condolences, which is nice don’t get me wrong) so I might be going stag this year.

Yet another smashed and broken life, another casualty of Jesse Singal's monstrous inclination towards being liked or at least tolerated. (I kid.)

How have you been since? Would you say you're better off or nah?

I hate the phrase “living my best life” because that sounds like something someone who unironically enjoyed Eat, Pray, Love and has couch pillows with inspirational slogans sewn on them would say.

But yeah, way better off and living my best life! So I don’t blame Jesse at all (at least not for this, there are other things to blame him for, like keeping the music volume so damn loud at last year’s event)

I love that book I read it like 50 times when I was 27. Have you tried chocolate pizza tho? Don’t.

I honestly think that after age 30 if you don’t upgrade your diet, you turn every gym trip into a rearguard action. My tendency now is to pursue healthy eating with a quasi religious devotion and chocolate pizza is a mortal sin. No risk there!

Party of Five was great. And now Party of Five star Lacey Chabert is the Queen of Hallmark movies. I'm looking forward to seeing her in one of the 32 (for real) Christmas movies Hallmark is putting out this year. I hope she's a go-go executive in the big city that has to go back to her small hometown to save her parent's struggling Christmas cookie shop and maybe also reconnect with an old flame who's now a widower with an adorable child!

I used to live next door to Taylor Cole who plays the mom in *all* those movies.

Tickets bought. Excellent. This year I plan to talk to more people and not just get fixated on one girl who will eventually let me down.

Debating flying in from Toronto for the weekend…. Haven’t been to New York in awhile… got a couple of hours to decide. This looks like fun

Ok but if I bring Jesse the bidet he was supposed to pick up can I get in for free?

Expand full comment

I sent a Venmo for two tickets and filled out the Google form and haven’t received any confirmation. Has that been other peoples experience? I told my friend to hold off on paying me back for her ticket until I knew for sure that Jesse wasn’t ripping us off…

Can't you coastal elites do a BARPOD party here in Tallahassee, FL a city where us real Americans live?

Expand full comment

I didn't go last year, and therefore don't know what bar it is. But, I paid and signed up. I'm assuming someone will email us prior to the event right?
