[TORONTO] Who wants to come along? [PRIDE] - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Beebo · 5th Jun 2008, 04:00 PM

I was talking to Phil, and we were considering making a fun little get together with some EC members that lived around the toronto area. It turns out that Toronto Pride is June 29th.

So I was wondering who would be interested in going? It would be cool to meet some of you, and I'm sure it would be a blast.

And I was also wondering, because I know you can't all drive, I could probably pick a couple people up. I dont know... but I think it would be fun.

I'm not sure if Jim is planning to go, but if he was, that would be awesome. Anyways... if you are interested, just drop a post, and we could try to organise something.

Jeimuzu · 5th Jun 2008, 05:25 PM

Aw damn, can't it wait until September?

I'd totally go.

If I can get into Canada, of course.

Bryan90 · 5th Jun 2008, 06:23 PM

So you guys finally decided to come to Pride?! YEAH..

jazzrawr · 5th Jun 2008, 06:31 PM

I WANNA GO!!! XD

i just have to figure out how to get there.
and how to get permission to go to a gay pride. XD
but ill try desperately!!!

Beebo · 5th Jun 2008, 07:01 PM

I doubt I will have permission LMAO. My parents think it is a brooding ground for HEETHANS!!! LMAO

But thats great. Do you guys think you can get rides?

where should we meet?

I know where you live Jazz, but what about you Bryan?

Bryan90 · 5th Jun 2008, 07:35 PM

I am actually having a party the day before (Saturday) in Toronto. A friend is celebrating her birthday in conjunction with the Dyke March. Jazz you might be interested in going to that. But even if I decide to go back to my humble abode before going to the Pride, it would be too troublesome for you to come pick me up in Scarborough, so I'd probably take the subway and meet you guys there itself.

Miaplacidus · 5th Jun 2008, 08:39 PM

I'd go to Montevideo Pride if I knew someone gay and nice here. I'd def go to Toronto Pride if I could...

InaRut · 5th Jun 2008, 09:18 PM

I wish I could but mom would have a huge fit! I don't think she'd be comfortable with the thought of me going to pride.

SlickyPants · 5th Jun 2008, 09:57 PM

If I had the money I'd totally go to the Toronto Pride... I've always wanted to check it out. Unfortunately I'm flat out broke and swimming in a pool of debt. Street people and hobos have more money than me. Maybe another year

6th Jun 2008, 01:17 AM

I'd love to come, but I live sooo far away

You guys are lucky being in english speaking countrys with loads of members, well, most of you anyway.

Steam Giant · 6th Jun 2008, 03:36 AM

I WISH I could go to this! But alas, I'm in the opposite direction of you, don't have a car, don't have any money, and don't have any friends who would care enough to organize the trip. ; ;

Damn if JSG was there I'd like have to go. Just kidding :P

Beebo · 6th Jun 2008, 08:42 AM

Pshht I'm not enough!? hahah.

But lets not kid around... JSG... *falls off his chair*

InaRut · 6th Jun 2008, 08:44 AM

Well you are. I'm saying the combined effort of Mike and JSG would be like ULTIMATE!

**Jim1454** · 6th Jun 2008, 09:04 AM

I hadn't actually given it much thought... It WOULD be really cool to meet up with you guys though. I'll have to see what else is going on that weekend.

My bf is moving - he gets his new house on the Friday. So I might be busy helping him move / get settled. But keep me posted in terms of plans you're making, ok?

James · 6th Jun 2008, 10:40 PM

If I had the money I would. I think I'm going to the PEI/Moncton "Pride Parade" here anyways.

Tim · 7th Jun 2008, 12:02 PM

Damn, of all the times to live on the west coast

lol

Make sure to take pics of ECers who go

lol

haha i know how that is

Jeimuzu · 7th Jun 2008, 03:48 PM

I'd soooo go. But it's... erm. A bit of a journey, I guess. I mean, I'm on the right continent that week

but that doesn't really mean it's convenient.

Shame, really. I'd love to have a big meetup if I was in town at some point.

InaRut · 10th Jun 2008, 01:48 PM

So I had this dream that I asked mom about going to Pride. And she said yes. So I got to the trainstation (which apparently is right outside my house <- news to me, I wish though) and this english guy was on the train tracks drinking some tea and he asked if I wanted to join him for a walk. And I said "OKAY." so we walk down the train tracks and suddenly it's all like forest and nice...and I ask him to hold my hand but he says that he's too busy drinking his tea.
