Official Holistic HTMLGIANT AWP Couchsurfing Post

All sorts of magic people will be at AWP Chicago Feb 11th-14th: you, some guy with a surgical mask, sixteen blind elves, and Tony Danza. You know, as in “Hold me closer, Tony Danza” and “Tony Danza in the sand.”

In our spirit of selfless community service we here at HTMLGIANT have decided to help the needy, the dispossessed, the charlatans, the men and women whose haircuts remain anxiously unaware of where they’ll end up mussed: that’s right, some of usall of usmost of useveryone in the worldat one point or another HTMLGIANT’s readers might need a place to crash in Chicago.

So why not see if we can have one GIANT <A> TAG help another? If you need a couch, post in the comments. If you have a couch free, post in the comments. If you’re a couch, buy a sweater.

GOOD LUCK! GODSPEED! CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS 09!

      my room already has so many fucking people crashing on the floor that it would be absurd to invite anyone else. there would be bodies on top of bodies. which mat sound preferable to some, but nonetheless.

      i can help with rides though. im leaving michigan, west through ohio, indiana then illinois if anyone needs a ride. or i can go all the way west through michigan into chi if someone needs picked up along the way. so yeah, let me know if thats the case.

      also, i will gladly gamble away my bed if there are any takers. superbowl, tic tac toe, poker, arm wrestling. whatever. let me know. wat ya’ll got in return?

      i love everyone who reads this.
