Rumblings: The Dream Of The WHAT? Is Alive In Port Fishington

>>> Possible outbreak of measles at Barcade. And though measles is no joke at all, there is something kind of fitting, is there not, that measles, which we haven’t even thought about since the fourth grade, would break out at Hipster Chuck E. Cheese. You’re a sly one, Higher Power. We’ll give you that at least. [Newsworks]

>>> But do we learn? No. We do not learn. As evidenced by this groany we-can-t-decide-whether-we’re-over-microbrews-and-gastropubs-or-not thread on Fishtown.us, which creates the classic Fishtown.us conundrum. To wit: What is worse?

If you answered all of the above, congratulations! You’re already packing for Mt. Airy. (TAKE US WITH YOU.) [Fishtown.us]

>>> Aw, we’re just pulling your beard(s), Portlandiaishtown. We know it’s all because you’ve been robbed of your parks, and have nowhere left to go but the Internet. Us, too, man. Us, too. [PortRichmondStar]

    To be fair, the gastropub/brewbar in question on that fishtown.us thread is the new one in the piazza. which is shit.

    I think Barcade has decent beers, but I have to chuckle at the phrase “hipster Chuck-E-Cheese”

    Barcade needs better games. No Star Wars, no credibility.

    every time I’m in Barcade i find myself wishing they had that four player Simpsons game where you could play as Marge beating people with a vacuum cleaner.
