Functional Alcoholics Meetup in SF
I interpreted this to mean alcoholics that are still functioning in society.

If you rephrase that as "alcoholics with no side effects," it's pretty much the same thing.

I interpreted it first to mean functional programming, then remembered what functional means to most people, then remembered that this was HackerNews, so I had to check.
