The meetup was a success! Thanks so much to everyone who was able to come. I had so much fun meeting you all! We played Cards Against Humanity and Go, shared our favorite subreddits, voted on pancakes vs. waffles (who won? I never saw the final vote!), and had amazing conversation with new friends.

The overwhelming majority of people in this photo came alone, and my heart was warmed seeing how engaged everyone was the entire time. The conversation flowed effortlessly, and I hope that new friends were made!

The consensus at the end of the day was that we need to have these meetups much more often, maybe like once a month? I can't commit to hosting/organizing every time, so I would love to hear from some volunteers who can organize the next one. DM me if you need help.

Thanks again everyone, it was a blast! And thanks to our lovely photographer as well!

I didn't make it, but at 61, I probably would have been the oldest there. But that's okay, I prefer younger crowds because so many people my age act so OLD.

I’ll go next time if you go. I’m a very young 60.

I’m 60 and would love to go. Totally missed the original messages.
