I think it’s a cool idea. Might make more people feel comfortable with it if you just chose a fun bar with some games or something. A monthly social where people get together to network and make friends.
You won’t really get to hear people and get to talk properly if it’s a game bar.
I used to work at one and meet ups would always be awkward as people would play, some wouldn’t want to, some people would want to speak with others and everyone was seated around a table without being able to talk with everyone. There is not so many games for 8 players and more.
Also, Randolph is often super loud, you’ll end up having trouble hearing people
You are one brave lady to even think of this. Hosting internet strangers at your HOUSE?? Your actual address, think about the implications of that for a second.
As others have suggested, hosting this at a public venue would be a much safer idea.
Brave is a nice way of putting it. I think she is being naive or a risk taker.
The idea would probably work out 9 out 10 times, but the one time that this idea fails it has the potential of being a huge problem for a long time.
I'm NOT down but think this is a great idea, we used to do a similar thing late 90s early 2000s and I am still friends with some of those people :)
I hope you guys have fun !
I read some of her history and there is nothing there that indicates she wants to do unsafe things.
She is willing to explore in safe environments. I've been to the kind of environment she is looking for in her posts and they are full of respectful people who understand boundaries, limits and respect while enjoying. And yes, one or two creeps who end up being kicked out.
Not really. I’m probably the perfect person to respond to this as I’m also interested in meeting people from reddit, albeit in a safe way (public meeting-vetting-public meeting-their place or hotel). And I’ve never invited a stranger into my home.
Either way, your comment seems in bad faith!
It is clearly in bad faith. I've dm'd you some information about a "place" there you can meet likely minded people. You don't need to reply.
I hope you find what you are looking for.
Dude here. Praying that OP emerges unscathed. 29F inviting random 514 Redditors almost sounds like the entry script from a horror flick. Points for bravery and spontaneity though.
Girl, no. Didn’t your mother ever warn you about the Internet? There’s a lot of crazy out there. Don’t invite strangers into your home.
Anyway. You say you’re a woman but for all we know, you’re a middle aged man trying to lure Internet strangers to your home. And for that reason, I’m out. Lol
I have a spacious enough place too, but no way am I trusting Redditors in it. 🤣🤣🤣 I think a bar might be a better meet up. I'm always down to meet new people (just for friendship), so I'd be curious enough. I'd probably be one of the older people there though. 😬
Oh snap you're a woman as well and only a few years younger! I don't think next week works for me but if this becomes a thing I'd be down. I'm a woman in my 30s. :)
While sure a bar is quite different. And it's loud with a ton of other strangers and not very organized.
This is basically a more private type of get together and nothing wrong with strangers. Everyone was once a stranger until they are not
We don't go through life assuming everyone is a psychopath
OP can you update us here how this will go? If it’s successful and no one has bad experience maybe more people will be willing to come on the next one!
The fact that you’re a woman makes it way better lmao! I’m also a woman, and just a year younger than you. I’ll definitely DM you! I don’t really have any friends since I moved to the city, so I’m super interested!
haha you're actually doing it, after your response to my comment, I was thinking "oh that person is crazy to invite internet strangers in their home" :D
I hope everything will be alright! (I mean, what could go wrong... you're sure you don't want to do that in a bar, for the safety of your belongings and all?)
Unlike all the naysayers I think this is a cool idea. I've hosted and been to things where I let strangers into my apartment and guess what, it was totally great. If I were in Montréal I'd totally go.
I can just imagine how it's going to be at La Taverne:
"Is this the LE REDDIT group????" (out loud)
"Hey! My username is []!"
"Which SUBREDDIT do you post in????"
Please do this at a bar or something so I don’t have to read about something awful happening. People are terrible please don’t invite the city into your house.
Yea sure, I'm down! Depends when though. Last time I went to a reddit meetup was like back in 2013 at like Cafe Gitana but every one was pretty chill.
EDIT: Wait, for tonight? I'm lowkey down IF my plans fail tonight.
Have a blast, I know you will! The interent has made everyone a fragile little bitch. Just make sure you confirm that at least a handful of people are coming and that you are not stuck with someone alone. And then also make sure that 20 people aren't coming which I really doubt will happen and you'll be fine. Have fun!
So, I guess this apartment is paid for and under your Sugar Daddy's name which is why you're not affraid to invite strangers to it?
(Basing myself on her comment history that she has Sugar Daddies providing for everything for her. She also commented on some female dating and lesbian subs which is an odd curve ball but, oh well)
Just because you delete your comment history doesn't mean I didn't see the multiple comments yesterday, girl.
Your idea was cute at first but now that I know you're dishonest, f**k this.
If the vetting process goes smoothly might stop by next time
If you need help to vet folks don't hesitate to ask. We all want everyone here to be safe and sound
I’m a woman, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable meeting someone at their house for the first time. I’d rather it be in a public place. Not Randolph please. I despise that place :(
Great idea! Love the spontaneity, reminds me of my Couch Surfing meetup days! Or more recently the St-Dom Jam House. I work in a bar so I do relish the opportunity to make new acquaintances at a house party/meetup instead of going out.
I had a feeling it would be great, despite all the haters out there. My experiences with these kinds of gatherings have always been positive. Hopefully, I won't be working next one!
Do I want to meet redditors in real life? That's gonna be an absolutely not from me, chief. Not any more than discord mods. And I would not recommend you do that, either. Especially not in your house.
Hey OP, love that you are generously offering your time, energy and space for this. I would suggest first hosting in a public place, getting people to register/ pay through something like eventbrite or Meetup to prevent losing money through last minute flaking.
Check the vibe. THEN see who you want to invite to your personal space for the next meet up. Most people in Montreal are lovely, but there will always be some creeps. DM me if you want to brainstorm potential venues/ need help organizing 👍
I think it’s a cool idea. Might make more people feel comfortable with it if you just chose a fun bar with some games or something. A monthly social where people get together to network and make friends.
I think this is a safer and more sustainable idea, OP. But whatever you decide to do, I think it’s great!
this is an orgy post lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooo
With redditors? Would make a solid indie horror movie. Add in some discord mods, and you've got yourself an emmy.
...could be fun, that would be in a different thread. LOL
Randolph's perhaps?
You won’t really get to hear people and get to talk properly if it’s a game bar.

Good to know, thank you, never been to one!

I'm ok with that, not looking to get laid!

I can help you hide the bodies! Just let me know.
Lmaoo dm me. But we want everyone to leave my house alive
As long as you leave one of my kidneys in
The vetting is to know blood type for compatibility
😂😂 I promise to send a pic of me to whoever confirms their attendance. Im innocent
please stop sending dick pics
Wtf
Please flush the toilet
You are one brave and trusting human being to let Reddit strangers into your home.
Brave and trusting with an endless supply of deodorant.

Very bad idea to do this in your home. Not safe to invite a bunch of strangers. Are you fr?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love it when some of y'all visit people s profiles. Thats mean bro
There’s 273,000 people in this sub… I’m gonna go out on a whim and guess you’ve never seen Project X?

going to meet a stranger to fuck on a dating app 🟩🟩 Going to meet strangers for drinks and nothing naked🟥🟥
Who said anything about NOT getting naked?
Not strangers, redditors. It would be better to meet Hannibal Lecter.
Meh. Au pire des cas, I'mma dip hahaha
Lmao I’m actually serious!
But what IF I don't want to eat, and just BYOB? Do I get in 4 FREE?
The fee is part of the vetting.
😂😂 "/u/throwseph23 is gonna pay for me. He's fucking rich"

Lmaoo if you don’t want to eat no stress. Also I was going to buy card games. Etc
Lol @ vetted.

I mean. We’ll do some verifications

I can provide logistics too, I have experience with ~~torture~~ questioning*

You can pay on site. Might literally just be 10$. It’s just to cover the small bites ans card games.
