Calling out to all locals!

We all know NYE in this town is fairly average, so who has some awesome ideas? Anything good on this year for a change? Any quirky ideas for something cool to do?

Oh wait….

It not her real photo.

Get all Rioters together in one place, correctly labelled with their pseudonyms.

Supply with alcohol.

Wait for police to arrive.

Although, the thought suddenly occurs to me that a gathering that consists almost entirely of white-coated, horn-rimmed, brylcreemed, high-waisted, squeakey-voiced internet-obsessed nerds (including me of course, but obviously not including Captain RAAF) might not be such a problem after all. 🙂

Pretty sure there would be fights over Cars vs. Cyclists to extremes the Police have never seen before. Everyone in Mooseheads would bow when we entered a room and people would whisper our names in fright.

Interesting, but very wrong stereotype

Indeed – I don’t have a squeaky voice.

I’ll be in bed reading a book. I’ve given up on trying to sleep through the fireworks as I’m too close to Civic and if the fireworks don’t wake me, the dog will. I recommend this activity…although my definition of “awesome” may differ from yours.

The Polish Club is having a ball – could be a laugh.

Could be the biggest gathering of Mully (cup) fans ever..

If Fiona is there, I’m in!

Oh wait….

I’d imagine a gathering of the RiotACT frequenters to be oppressed public servants, actually.

I commented to my SO this evening that I wasn’t keen on doing NYE this year unless it was something new and exciting. Usually it’s just our male friends over at our house getting embarrassingly drunk while I go read in the bedroom after the first five hours. Please, RiotACT, provide a better alternative!
