Re: D Magazine Christmas Party

Sorry, Timmy, I have a more compelling shot of last night’s “Throw Down at D Magazine Where We Give a Damn.” And no, that isn’t me in Timmy’s picture it’s just a middle-aged employee wearing a sweatshirt. (Go Petes!)

  1. Oh noes! Robots have taken over Frontburner. Or is this a viral marketing campaign for War of the Worlds starring Keanu Reeves?

    /comment that won’t make sense when the issue is fixed

  2. empty picture hangers, empty bookshelves — pretty bleak.

  3. I’d like to lobby for more photos featuring Kyle Kearby. Yowza.

  4. Was there any dancing on the tables and gyrating spider monkeys?

  5. I would have to say that this is not a compelling shot and would like a do-over. Yikes!

  6. This is, sad to say, both grim (your party appears to be transpiring in an empty storage closet) and uncomfortable (conversation appears to be loping along in an awkward and forced fashion).

    That said, Lady On Far Left = Easy On Eyes.

  7. Not to knock your office party, but I’m not sure that is a regulation sized beer-pong table.

  8. Sheesh. These comments aren’t Front Burneruvian, they are hypercritical.

    ‘Tis the Season ppl!

  10. If Brandy got what she wanted, the party wouldn’t appear as grim and uncomfortable as Daniel has suggested. Especially since the entire party, previous evidence aside, did not happen in that conference room.

  11. What did Brandy want?

  12. What no coasters?

  13. No SideCars, only Dr.Pepper.

  14. Wow, Coors Light. You guys know how to party.

  15. to everyone criticizing our party backgrounds…
    have you ever heard the saying that it’s the people that make the party?
    and trust me, we know how to party. the proof is in the pictures that won’t be making it onto this blog.

  16. Was this taken just before the cup-stacking competition?

  17. Nobody doubts you know how to party, dro my bro. But what are we supposed to say given the evidence you’ve offered us? And if we can’t think of anything nice to say, rest assured, we’ll be hitting the comments section.

    Oh, and the lady on the far left certainly has a Fiona Apple thing going on. If I were to write a song about her — relax, not happening; my creepiness has its limits — I would call it “Lady (On the Far Left).” On the flip side of the 45 would be “Lady (On the Far Left) (Instrumental)”

  18. Where’s the Swingline stapler?

  19. Do only white people work at D magazine…. I only see white people in all of your pictures…

    How many people of color work for D magazine, besides the custodial and maintenance departments? I would really like to know that number!

  20. Watch those comments “Maury” D magazine loves to delete anything negative about its magazine or Frontburner. But I guess when you work in the Oak Lawn section, you have to be a little wussified ; )
