Bastard Christmas Party

Bastard Christmas Party

Greg Gregarious Narain and Brian Solis are hosting a Bastard Christmas Party tomorrow (Monday, December 18th) at Otis in San Francisco. This event is a pre-launch party for bub.blicio.us, a new blog that reports on the “social economy” that is part of the current explosion of web technology, featuring write-ups, photos and videos from events and parties in the Bay Area.

With December comes the holidays. While most enjoy spending time with their familes, digesting their massive dinners and unwrapping gifts, a select few of us shiver ourselves to sleep alone. Not any more.

The Bastard Christmas Party celebrates our lives away from our familes. No crying babies, no annoying cousins, no long-lost aunts and uncles. We like to think of it as Egg Nog for the Remainder. A tribute to all of those who had the good sense to avoid the holiday shopping lines and the crowded airports and highways. Sure, we’re bastards – but we’re entitled.

Join us for the Christmas Party designed just for you, you selfish bastard ;) There won’t be any gifts, and anyone seen wearing a Santa Hat will be shot. What we will have is a mix of people even Santa can’t forget. There will be drinking and plenty of “missletoe” for your enjoyment.
