It can't be at The Mineshaft, because The Minshaft already serves a different purpose. It's the Unfogged counterpart to "Drinking Liberally"; rather than lefties getting to know each other better over drinks, lefties get to know each other better over hot man-on-man action.
Dropasoap, unfacon.

I want to know where Labs gets his information about the size of the readership.

He's probably using the girl27 method.

Is Unfacon real bacon?

This better not conflict with the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con.

Joe, I can only assume that you're making fun of Science Fiction, and on behalf of Gary Farber, I rebuke you mightily.

Nah, it's a reference to The Simpsons making fun of Science Fiction.

I think it would work ten times better with two more syllables. "Tri-coun[ty]-bi-mon-sci-fi-con", say. "Coun" pronounced "cun".

That would be the enormous, hand-stretched readership, right? Maybe it's strap-on feet he needs.

I suggest some conveniently located public bathroom.
Is Nevada convenient?

Do they call it the oil well in texas?
Posted by tweedledopey | Link to this comment | 07-26-05 12:29 PM
Or the Tar Pit in California?
Posted by Kriston | Link to this comment | 07-26-05 1:06 PM
Here in North Carolina, it might be the Tar Hole.
Posted by apostropher | Link to this comment | 07-26-05 1:10 PM
In Minnesota, it might be the Giant Gaping Strip Mine with Bonus Asbestos, um, Hole.
Posted by Chopper | Link to this comment | 07-26-05 1:31 PM
Or the Ice Hole, which has a ring all its own.

I suggest some conveniently located public

The bathroom: Shithole.
