Reservations have been made. Guest list has been compiled. Goodie bags are in the works. Ms. Pac Man practice games polished. We are prepared for the sequel…
Now, the Golden Gopher isn’t your typical bar, and as a non-drinker, it is my favorite Los Angeles bar for two reasons. The best jukebox in town, and they have tabletop Ms. Pac Man scattered throughout.
With that being said, we ask for everyone who is ‘up for it’ to bring rolls of quarters in their pockets for the first ever Mutinous Ms. Pac Man Challenge! Abhi claims he’s the best, I claim to be better, and we both challenge the L.A. mutiny to a death match of Ms Pac Man.
Golden Gopher is expecting a posse of macacas, and we have been promised a section of the bar. There is free street parking after 6pm. I know that there are some of you coming far from Santa Barbara, and San Diego (or the Westside) – so please don’t be discouraged by the drive, GG is located right off the freeway. And we will be waiting for you (though the goody bags may run out).
Who is we? Infamous Mutineers Abhi and Vinod. We also have Builder, Brooklyn Brown, Arun, Vivek, cauvery, Anu, Shruti, Ani (+1?), terence, Rajan, Murali, Navratan Kurma, Sumit Chachra, Ami, Payal, Localdesi, Lata, Ravi, Mad Guru, Guru One, Raj, Jazzie/Nahmuna (+1), SD, GujuDude,1 /26 (+1) and, drum roll please, Padesi Gori. And more? That would be 26+ if I’m not mistaken… If you haven’t RSVPed, please do in the comments below.
And while we are at it, where are the Celebrity Mutineers at? It is Los Angeles, after all. This is a personal request, since there seems to be two degrees of separation in the desi world, that if you know any of the following desis, please invite them to the meetup next Friday! John Abraham, Kal Penn, Parminder Nagra, Rasika Mathur, Sheetal Sheth, Sendhil Ramamurthy and, well, any other Southern California desi you think is blogworthy.
It will be a night to remember and a fabulous end-of-summer celebration. We hope to see you all there!
UPDATE: Can anyone offer to carpool folks from the westside to downtown? We have some mutineers that need you!
Pardesi Gori,
Do you really look like Angelina Jolie ?
We need to get that straight before
the rest of us turn up uninvitedwe allow our friend Amitabh to hook up with you. The brother has high standards, y’know.Amitab bhai: Maine aapki matlab aachi tera se samaj gayi thi… sabse paheli baar.
English people, English.
I am a lurker here for several months and would like to attend the meetup! I will be coming up from San Diego.
athey
(not that i know how to spell that 😉
Sounds good. Just show up. We will see you then.

He told me to chill and understand that he was just trying to get some.
I told him I’ve always known what he was up to.
Mind you, he used a problematic sexualization of race that can possibly be intrepreted as a compliment, but for the most part, is as inappropriate as one of Pardesi Gori’s own comments… perhaps they should meet- they might be perfect for each other 😉 One less thing for Taz Aunty to worry about, na?
So Taz, I’m next in line. Find me a suitable boy! 🙂
Come on peoples. Show PG some love. She’s making the effort to come to the meetup after all. Regardless of what she said on other threads, I think her questions here are at worst nosy (come on, you’ve heard more than this from Uncles and Aunties) and in a foreign language (“Mind nah gil, Gori gwan”), maybe ridiculously over-perceptive (“innuendo”) but not offensive.
And admit it, you’re dying to see her in person, aren’cha?
