I've decided to close the SA offices (since there's only two of us working there now), so to celebrate and say goodbye, I'm having a Something Awful Open House this weekend. The office will be open all day, and I'll be giving away or selling fabulous merchandise, as well as a lot of beer and liquor. Come by, say hi, get free poo poo. Bring booze, drugs, and games! Here's our address:

Something Awful
220 N State Route 7
Pleasant Hill, MO 64080

Please let me know if anybody plans on coming, because if not then I won't bother showing up. I don't expect many goons live out around here (we're 30 minutes away from KC though), so I'm not exactly expecting a huge turnout, especially since this is last minute. Let me know!

Seriously, SA gives thousands of dollars to a racist in Alabama but does next to nothing in comparison to contribute to the improvement of the website they use all the time?

I'm sure there are plenty of ways money could be used to improve the site. If nothing else, we can buy Lowtax some anti-depressants.

Do not engage. Just tell me to go back to Kiwi Farms where I waste days upon days crying about how I wasted years upon years on SA. Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.
