Last May one of New York’s best known secret society’s, The LVHRD Foundation (that’s pronounced live-hard), closed off it’s membership.

Normally UNCOOLKIDS wouldn’t really feel right about telling you about something so exclusive. That’s really more of a cool kids thing, isn’t it? But LVHRD throws a good party and it’s not as cliquish as it sounds. Even though the locations of the events aren’t disclosed until the day-of, there’s usually somebody who can get you the info, and it’s not like they have a member list at the door or anything. They even give tips about attending; if you check the source code of their website you find this message:

“Dear Mr. Snoopy Pants,

If you really wanna get in, do a google search for LVHRD, find somebody who has been to an event, and email them… they should be able to show you the way, or just attend an event and ask for chantal.

LVHRD partys are not just a bunch of people standing around drinking (although that is a big part); they always have some sort of theme. Coming up on May 2nd is ACTHRD: Thespian Royale, a 12-man competitive acting event. And just to make sure everyone knows they’re welcome, they are allowing non-members to attend, provided they register (and pay) before-hand. (And the registration form for non-members looks exactly like the profile form for members, so maybe they’re really the same form? Are you secretly joining the secret society?)
