My roommate and I won trivia tonight.

Two of us.

Oh my. I've never been so proud of myself in my life.

I feel comfortable assuming you did not use your phone to get all the answers, which makes that even more impressive. I used to go all the time but any bar around West Chester it seems everyone has their iPhone or Blackberry out googling all the answers.

Nope, no cheating.

The four rounds were Baseball, Food, Music and History.

We got 7/10 on baseball, but it was hard. We were 2nd after round one, with one team out of 20 or so getting 8/10. Third after getting 5/10 on food. Fell into like 10th after music. We were at 31 after three. Two points a question (14, 10, 7 (two artist-song title, two artist only, one song title only)), and first was 42. Then bonus round was history, we got 8/10, so that means first only got 5/10 or worse. It was tough, but luckily I'm a huge nerd. Zachary Taylor, the Crimean War and Atlantic City all came up big. It was funny because we are good friends with a big bunch of people who were there who were in first after two rounds. There were 11 of them on their team, and they ended up third. We talked so much shit after we won.

comeonn hot bartender at place you usually go, yes or no

I was quoting Office Space.

If the bartender at the tombs was a woman, this would be an easier question. One of my roommates hooked up with a waitress once after we were out drinking. I don't think there's anything too tricky about it. Just get drunk and make unabashedly sketchy comments.

I don't have much to eat here and none of my nocturnal friends (a.k.a. World of Warcraft players) want to join me at a diner. And I don't want to be that creepy guy that goes to Giant at 3 AM.

I won't make that mistake again. I've never had a good experience getting food from Wawa late at night (after all, they don't put the Einstein sandwich makers behind the counter at 3 AM).

Maybe I'll go anyway and get some Tastycakes.

I'm looking for more meal-y type stuff though, as I haven't eaten since breakfast. I kind of want to go to Giant to get some spaghetti and tomato sauce.

Manny will be a Phillies >> Halladay will be a Phillies

Obviously, Halladay actually needs to become a Phillies to change this (or we could just un-ban jemagee and have everyone put him on ignore) ...

The real reason of course is we've been winning this July (and we won a WS last October), and we were frustrating last July, and it's way more fun to post a lot when the team is in the crapper.
