This week’s theme is…

May 4, 2009 - 5:15 pm

We’re a little behind in choosing a theme for this week’s soup night. If you have any suggestions, or want to vote for one of the ideas below, please let us know by leaving a comment. Also, if you’d like to host, now or another week, leave a comment. Basically, leave a comment already.

Possible ideas running through my head right now…

  • Mobile Screening Unit X-10-50! Extreme hotness to the max!
  • H1N1 :: The Hamdemic of Epig Proporktions! (can we make raw pork vegan soups?)
  • We we do things online: What the fuck is twitter? MySpace sucks ass and here’s why. Stop typing already and get on Skype! Okay, okay, I understand the potential value behind Facebook, but isn’t keeping friends supposed to be a little difficult? (that sort of thing)
  • Nipple slips and fuck words! The FCC and Censored Soups!
  • How to spot bad graffiti in PDX… oh wait, it’s everywhere. How to improve the graffiti scene in your neighborhood!

okay, those are my ideas. what are yours?!

Soup Nights are gatherings of people who want to eat and socialize. Meet new people, talk, watch movies, performances, listen to music or play games. Eat soup. Be happy.

Soup is provided by the host and should reflect current or cultural themes. Feel free to bring bread, wine, beer, cookies, or other edibles to share with everyone. Don't worry about anything fancy or being able to feed everyone.

As more and more people share the world becomes a souperior place.

We would like to see this become a regular event, happening every Thursday. Of course, obstacles could arise, like annoyed roommates, empty bank accounts or, dare I say, lack of interest. But let's be honest, how could you lose interest in soup night?

Also, soup night rulz.

Also! There's a temporary place to add notes, thoughts, ruminations, comments, names, or whatever you want. It's a super-high-tech-realtime-collaboration-revision-keeping-platform called EtherPad. It's essentially a wiki, so edit it and save revisions and delete things... you can't break it.
