Ever want to learn to Curl (but just once)? How about Wiffle Ball or Badminton? Bocce and Boules and Mud Football? Extreme Ironing anyone? We'll even go Bowling and love it! (you know you actually love it) All sports are fair game from the obscure like Donkey Ball to the old favorites like Kickball. This Meetup is for people who enjoy getting together to play random (and not so random) sports in and around the Bay Area. The group then heads to fun and/or interesting (not one and the sa …
We all just want to have fun and let go sometimes, right? This group is just about that! In this group you will have a chance to do random activities throughout the San Francisco area. These events can vary from dodgeball to cooking to poker nights to whatever random idea sounds like fun!
Like the South Bay chapter.... "This meetup is here to help provide a social location for those looking for something a little less mainstream. We're a non-judgmental group who loves geeking out just as much as YOU DO!" The South Bay group has had such a great response, we thought there might be enough geeks in the peninsula area to make a sister group. Let's share geeky ideas, go geeky places, and do geeky things together! All manner of geeks are welcome: singles, couples--even people w …
We are a group of individuals that actively pursue improving the lives of those around us as well as our own. We believe generosity rewards, kindness perpetuates and knowledge empowers. Each meeting will have two focuses - self improvement and how we can improve the life of someone else (friend or stranger - we don't discriminate :)). We will discuss new habits, mindsets and techniques for improving ourselves and how we can also apply this new knowledge to an unsuspecting, yet deserving, person …

What is a philosovert you ask ? It's a person who on one hand lives on the more introverted side but on the other still loves to discuss all kinds of topics with other folks. I have found that introverts more often than not have strong opinions about stuff but don't necessarily share them because they feel overwhelmed by "extrovies". I personally have a hard time discussing boring things like sports or cars since I simply cannot contribute anything. Yes, I'm that guy who brings up that one topic …
Blockbusters? Indie? Cult? You can get those anywhere. This is the group for movies so bad they're good. The weird, the bizarre, the horrible acting, the ridiculous concepts, the non-work-safe hilarity. Most people are just uncomfortable watching them, but for whatever reason they tickle the suitably twisted sense of humor. I've run bad movie nights for my friends for years, so I decided I might as well try it with random strangers on the internet too. Would you watch a movie called "Jes …

Hey, we're Brendan and Vic. We started this because we want to hang out with cool, smart 20somethings in the Bay, and we don't want to rely on random bars/parties anymore. All of us leave undergrad and spend our 20s with the people we already know through school or work. We see a ton of other 20somethings all over the place, but work/party madness makes it hard to know who's cool or when you'll see them again. We're trying to change that. We'll make sure that we can personally vouch …

Lets PLAY! Ever wanted to just get a pick up game of bball rather than going to random courts hoping that a good number of players are there? This group is for people that consider themselves "all right" in basketball, more like the weeked warrior type. (If you consider yourself to be WAY better than average then this group may not be for you.) This group so far meets Wednesday nights and Saturday mornings. Currently the Gym of choice is Upper Noe Valley Rec Center Gym. Wednesdays from 5:30PM to …

You might not have a problem. Welcome to Karaokeyers Anonymous! Karaokeyers Anon is an open-minded group for people who want to sing, socialize, and have an enthusiastic, supportive audience for those spontaneous "burst-into-song" moments! We encourage shy folks, bold, folks, and even those …

Sound interesting to you? A little maybe? Here, conversations are never dull, they're never re-cycled, its always fun and we have members that carry genuine interest in others. …

This is low pressure discussion based group, meaning the intent is chill and easy going, collaborative and will grow organically. Discussion topics could include anything of interest (from philosophy, …

***DISCLAIMER: Girls are allowed :) ... if you fit the description and like to hang out as one of the guys then join up! *** THE SITUATION: During the day, you're a young professional. When you're with the significant other, you're the best boyfriend/husband ever (that is, unless you're single... then you're just the guy that enjoys his mom's cooking). But a lot of the time, you're a guy that just wants to do guy stuff. You want to talk about Natalie Portman, sports, comics, and food. You want …

first space.. where you live. second space.. where you work. third space.. a coffee shop/tea house/free space. I spend a lot of time at coffee/tea shops throughout the city, who doesn't? Bring your laptop, your work, projects, some reading to random cafes/coffee/tea shops in the city. This is meant to be a casual & convenient work/study meet-up for those with a busy schedule in the city to come/go as you please but also meet a new friend or two while doing what you normally do.

Yes, it's pretty random, but I ran a Tall People meetup group in London for a few years (just moved back to SF) and as a result, I made some very dear friends. So I decided that a new group was in order on this side of the Atlantic. We can play it by ear, of course, but I'm thinking monthly meetups at chilled-out bars, restaurants, maybe the park when it's nice out, perhaps festivals, who knows? I'm not fussy about height requirements. If you "identify" as a tall person, then feel free to join. …
This is a book club. It is also a support group. Our simple goal? Get through the 3000+ plus pages of "In Search of Lost Time" (Remembrance of Things Past) by Marcel Proust. I'm a practical reader; I know that I need a plan in order to have any hope of getting through a novel like this. I also know that I need accountability, so that I won't end up just skimming Swann's Way to say that I've "read Proust." So here's my plan: 1. Spread it out over a year. Think of it this way - my version has abou …
