Invite Your Blog Crush happy hour recap
Filed Under (blogging, Happy Hours) by Arjewtino on 22-10-2007

One of the most frequent running themes at last Friday’s incredibly attended Invite Your Blog Crush Happy Hour -– other than butt-smacking, shot-taking, and indoor-smoking –- was the idea of blogger privacy.

To varying degrees, each blogger chooses his or her level of privacy early on in that blog’s lifecycle. Some choose to hide every aspect of their lives, while others reveal everything about themselves short of their Social Security Number or the fact that they used to participate in Amway.

Most of us fall somewhere in the middle, opting for a semi-veiled kind of security for any number of reasons.

Blogger happy hours, though, have a way of dropping that veil.

We meet otherwise secretive people we happen to read online; we learn their names and their favorite drinks; and we share intimate stories we’d rather forget.

This creates an uncommon sense of camaraderie most of us find unusual but which we all understand. We have to bond with each other lest we allow our private information to be exposed. We tell things to people who already have heavily read, public media with which they could expose this information.

With that said, here are photos of unidentified bloggers wearing black bar glasses from Friday night. No, those are not “Photoshopped” strips of black bar over our eyes; they are actually glasses that create the same effect.

There was an awful lot of tush molesting going on.
How in the name of all that is holy did I miss these glasses?

I believe your standard two hours-late MO is to blame.

“Did you just grab my ass?”
“Sir, from where I am standing that is a physical impossibility.”

The Bird grabbed my ass. The more I screamed “bad touch” and “I need an adult”, the more she did it.

That’s ’cause you were high on the hookah.

Irrelevant!

Unless she was waiting for me to smoke so she could take advantage of me…

Ha! Love the glasses. Once again, I realize I need to move so’s I can hang out with the cool kids in DC.

If had I realized bloggers were so hot, I would have ditched my wife and been there.

Puhlease, he was asking for it dressed like that.

Those glasses are hilarious. I saw somebody with them on right around the time that I had to leave. Whoever thought of that shit is a genius!

Clearly I missed out….

I think I might have been better off at work.
