So i was searching for "Posse" or "Transplants" and all i was finding was for breast enhancements on that latter search. Not exactly what I meant
yelp.com. ;-)
I am not exactly a transplant anymore, I lived here the last 8ish years but moved away last year and now i am BACK....but what the heck, where did my friends go? Babies, depression, illnesses, or maybe lack of all those things and they moved....but i am finding myself getting on my boyfriends nerves. I am bored. Theres some cool peoples on here, how do i meet them without seeming gay? =P

Well my girlfriend and I who are relatively new to Yelp just decided one night to go check out "Rockin the Rickshaw" and met up with everyone and just hung out and had fun.....
Just give it a shot.....

Yep - just watch the events section for happy hour - there's one right now I think. : ) Everyone that shows up was at some point new, and just decided to go with it one day. So don't be afraid we only bite after the 2nd HH. (err, Happy Hour)

Miss Mary Ann "Slave to the Collie" D. says:
yes, it;s possible
you can find everything from I love your reviews and I send you compliments, but we've never met, to a meet for lunch/drinks here and there type of friendships to BFF - just like any other group
the happy hours range from boring as a box of salt to "hey - you're kinda cool, let's meet again"

Ian S. says:
Jess: Plenty of transplants here. You can tell because the natives "have enough friends" :)

Dan "my real name is DFENS!" T. says:
You can meet a lot of cool yelpers!
But look out for a small group of shady characters like me who typed in "transplants" too see what all the fuss is about.

Yes, you can meet awesome people here. I just moved to Seattle, sad to leave an amazing bunch of friends I did in Atlanta through Yelp. The great things is we are in touch on a daily basis through Yelp! And now, I'm slowly meeting the people from Yelp Seattle, and they are great! So definitely try to attend the events (I've been kind of bad at that). And as MMAD said, some get together for lunch, some for coffee and cupcakes (hehehe, nice, nice!) some to watch soccer and some to drink!

Jess, I saw the picture of your two pups. When I saw it, I had to add pictures of my two on the beach. Stanley, the white and black one, is a papillion mix.
In three weeks, my wife and I are moving up to Renton. We will be looking for new friends as well. I will definitely check out the events page. See everyone soon!

I do have friends off Yelp, but I've made some great riends on here - not everyone is going to be your cup of expresso, obviously - but my four M's plus others are funny, smart, entertaining and wonderful - really. ; )

Naurry's lovable. Don't listen to his drunken rant.
Shut Up, Naurry.

Lee "Mabel" A. says:
Naurry is extremely lovable - like an Asian smurf. I'm planning to make stuffed versions of Naurry wearing Ride the SLUT t shirts.
+ 1 Shut up Naurry! ;) Don't scare off new beetches!

Lee, I'll take one of those stuffed Naurry's!

Lee "Mabel" A. says:
True Alyson - but even Smurfs are getting in shape these days. ;)
I think I've hit on something here - do you think Hello Kitty stores would stock Naurry dolls?

Christine "CStan" S. says:
I have!
And Ian, I'm a native and I never have enough friends. I'll even take transplants, if that's all I can find. ;)

elsa "babels" f. says:
LOL
I LOVE Smurfs, even if they are Naurry Smurfs.

Just start Yelp-stalking people as you write a bunch of reviews....problem solved.

where's tony g? isn't he off restriction by now? i was sick yesterday and my computer at home is still broken. i'm outta the loop.
07/24/2008
elsa "babels" f. says:
Adine - Tony G is probably doing real work. The ban may have caused him to learn the value of workplace professionalism...
Then again, didn't he go to the Tony-Out-Of-The-Naughty-Box HH last night? He's probably snoozing at home with a bad baaaad hang-over.

Yelp is like Fight Club (more specifically, Project Mayhem.) You decide your own level of involvement.

Ian S. says:
Sean: You're breaking the first two rules of Project Yelphem.

Benni M. says:
I think most people here don't like me becuse I'm only 18 and seem to like to snub me and act like I don't know anything. I have few friends on yelp and they rarely message me.
07/25/2008
Loree "your friendly neighborhood bitch" B. says:
Benni- I think most of these folks on here are 21+, hence a lot of events are involving drinking....I think that's the only reason, not cuz we don't like you...but it can be fun teasing the youngins....

Kyle K. says:
It's ok, I'm a young'n too...*sad face*
I can't be cool and hip like you elites. Yelp should reform the 21 and over Elite rule! and let the petition start... NOW

MMAD:
boring as a box of salt HH? I have been out of the picture for a while, but if HH has gotten boring I'm not missing much eh?
Also, if you think a box of salt is boring, you were obviously never a little boy with slugs in the front yard.

you can't. if you meet me i will assume you want inside my pantalones and act accordingly. nothing wrong with that, though, so long as you leave the boyfriend at home.
