nerve and spring streets' holiday party

january 16, 2003

Nerve & Spring Street meant to throw a holiday party in December, but for some reason it kept getting canceled and never happened. But because we had a bunch of cases of vodka at the offices (left over from a film premiere party) we decided to invite a bunch of people over to a bar in the East Village to drink for free and get rowdy. The results were very similar to the the last time our companies tried something like this.

The pics below were compiled from multiple cameras (mostly to ensure maximum coverage of embarrassing moments). Mad props to Stefan, Ganesh and Keith for letting me use some of their pics!


Early evening at Pierot. The free booze was flowing like mud at this point so a few us told the bartenter to just keep putting shots of vodka on the bar and we started passing them out throughout the party. Things go ugly quick.   tags:bar nerve.com party

After months of a phone-sex-only relationship, Comedy Central's own Steve Raizes finally meets Spring Street's wunderkind, Alex M. (I had to remove Alex's last name - keep reading - all will be revealed).   tags:alex m alisa steve r


You may remember these two from the last company party we had. In fact, Eric's drunken antics proved to be so tremendous, that they merited their own sub-section within the entry. Eric and Peter took it easy this party and stepped aside to let Alex M. step up to the plate for his five minutes of Internet fame. Ladies and Gentleman (and future employers of Alex who will no doubt discover this during their obligatory, pre-hire, Google-snooping) it is with great pleasure that I present to you:

The Alex M. Section
, isabella robertson
03.17.03 Update: I had to remove Alex's last name off the page because, just as I predicted, some of our clients started Googling his name and when this very page came up as the first result in that search, they were, in Alex's words "not overly impressed by what they found." Hehehe.

This is Alex. Alex is normally a pretty quiet guy - throw a few drinks into the mix (ok, in Alex's defense the bar was handing out four-finger deep tumbler glasses filled with straight vodka) and the next thing you know he's throwing down Jodeci faces for the cam.    tags:alex m tookie drunk


And then the next thing you know he's quasi-passed out (check out the open mouth - noice!) on Nerve intern Noa, who tried to resuscitate him with a firm grab of his titty.   tags:alex m noah best drunk nerve.com tit squeeze


Well, the titty grab not only awoke Alex, apparently it also excited him. Uh-oh!   tags:alex m noah drunk makeout nerve.com spring street networks

Bwa-hahahaha! Here's Grant surreptitiously giving Alex the ol' "Get a Load of This Guy" face for the cam. (Bonus points to the guy over Grant's right shoulder laying down the double-ironic "Who does this guy think he is making fun of that other guy" face. Ha!)   tags:alex m grant timmy best drunk get a load of this guy nerve.com wink


So a few minutes after Alex made out with Noah, we noticed him hanging around Lisa - yet another intern. *gasp*   tags:alex m drunk nerve.com


And then the next thing you know...*BWA-HA-HA!* Alex M: Makeout Bandit!   tags:alex m drunk makeout


Oh yeah! Action shot!    tags:alex m drunk makeout


We interrupt the Alex M. Section for a picture of Hikma's reaction to "Alex M: Makeout Bandit."    tags:hikma gross
