True!  I'd love to find a late night library that had a bar.


...I should open a late night library with a bar.   :link:

Fuck, I'd be willing to fund such a venture.

And I'd be willing to be the bartender and do some short order cooking.


Literary/Book themed bars are doing pretty well here in PDX:

If you could handle the inevitable weird I'd bring with, I would travel to go to a place like this, if it was on the continental US.

Hot damn.  This may be my brilliant idea of the year.

Now to figure out how this sort of thing is done...

You'll want to start by drawing up an outline of a business plan (no sense getting into the nitty gritty details until you have several other things sorted out) and figuring out how you're going to secure financing.

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

There's a tavern here called afk where you can get dnd sourcebooks with your drinks
Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

I will.  This would be a great project for when I move back to Seattle in a couple years.

If you do this in Seattle and not Portland, I'm DEFINITELY in.


And yeah, AFK fucking sucks.

It would go over and how in a place like Seattle.  I hope you make it work, Felix.

Now I wonder what is worse, the entitled douche from the OP, or this guy that actually wrote a guide on working from coffeeshosp and not getting kicked out:

At least he's not being douchy and entitled about it and recommends tipping, but WTF ... this is a startup "thing" :|

It's a reality that people do this, so it's not really such a bad thing that the guy provided a guide to the (apparently incredibly socially inept) would-be IT entrepreneurs who are going to use coffeeshops as their offices anyway.

Although, I gotta say, at $300-$1000/month, unless they really need the social bustle of being in a coffeeshop they're better off renting someone's spare room for an office.

Annnnnnnd suddenly I remember that the room EFO is currently in is wired as an office. HMMMMMMM. I can see that being a $400/month income generator, alla sudden.

Hire a vending and coffee machine, and you're set.
