The NYC pillow fight went fine, several friends were there.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think the pillow fight issue is that, if pillows break open and feathers fly out, they're an enormous pain to clean up. Usually for big gatherings, cleanup costs are absorbed by permit costs, but something like this doesn't have a permit, usually.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
yep Hil - interesting how you never hear of flash-mop clean-ups or facebook/myspace organized hipster trash removal with synchronized ipod soundtrack.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
organized pillow fight at a downtown park.
The bout was part of a worldwide event organized on social networking Web sites.
So THAT'S what that was! Our neighborhood's e-mail newsletter had a one-line cryptic note that said "Pillow fight, 2 p.m. Saturday, [name] Park. Bring your own pillow."
I googled it, but I was really specific in my search terms, using "pillow fight" and the name of the park. Which explains why I didn't find anything about the worldwide event.
(No, I didn't participate.)

Someone here in my section is eating something that smells amazingly good with garlic in it. Oh, my, am I craving garlic bread right now!

We should totally do that. With loud music. Like a dance-a-clean-a-thon.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
A co-worker went to the LA pillow fight. I have no interest in a pillow fight with strangers. Sounds like my idea of a nightmare. Kind of like Cuddle Parties (shudder), which another co-worker attends [link]
Weird co-workers!

Okay, so I'm having job-change angst. Should I? Should I not? What do I dooooo?
It'll be fine either way, right? I mean, no matter which choice I make, it's not going to be totally tragic.
...unless it ends up with me being non-continued again...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

You'll probably be cited for a noise violation.

The invite specified non-feather pillows for that very reason.
