Conventions?

[Bugaboo]

I've never been to a convention but a friend of mine asked me if I want to go to Katsucon and I'm totally down for it

Is that a convention dedicated entirely to @KatsuKitty

No, it's an anime convention just outside of DC.

But that'd be interesting.

For the longest time all Honolulu had was Kawaii Kon and some smaller (and kind of terrible) Homestuck/anime fan gatherings, but now there's more big-name conventions like Hawaii Con and the Amazing Hawaii Comic Con. I've only ever been to KKon...

Anime Matsuri's coming to Honolulu next month! I'm volunteering there for most of the weekend and I'll be in the LARP panel with my school's medieval combat club. None of us knows what to expect but whatever we do, the con's director wants us all in cosplay. I am kind of nervous about it!

dibs on Connor.

I'll buy some new glasses. To be more like Connor, maybe I should write something for the event? Wait, no, better yet, I'll say I will, and turn up with nothing!

I'm a true 'cow!

Magfest is coming up.

It's basically four days of getting plastered, wandering around, observing nerds, and playing video games.

A while back there was New Orleans comic con. I didn't go, but had I've gone, I would've seen Norman fucking Reedus.

Providence has its own comic con, which is pretty new, but manages to get some really great guests every year.

I've been going since 2012 and I don't regret it; I've had the chance to see a ton of people there. Last time, for example, they had Tom Kenny. The line was incredibly long - a 50 minute wait - but it was worth it, very much worth it. (He will imitate any voice he did for you - for example, Heffer, which he did for me - and apparently I was one of the few people who'd asked him about his role in Shakes the Clown.)

I could go on and tell you about how I got Michael Dorn to do his I.M. Weasel voice, how Bob Camp autographed one of my Ren and Stimpy comic books, how Adam West gave me an autograph because he liked me...

By convention, the variable t is used for time.

There is a tardfest coming up in Ontario.

You should fit right in.

C'est ce que je pensais.

Magfest starts tomorrow.

I'm gonna get wasted all weekend and play video games 'til my eyes bleed.

 

[Chicken Dippers]

I hope it's alcohol you're planning on getting wasted on, Marvo.

Alcohol and then some.

There are no words for my envy, right now.

I might end up selling stuff there, if all goes according to plan.

I didn't end up going. I went to Katsucon, though.

I almost feel like giving up selling at conventions, man, it doesn't work out that well for me.

I have a friend who went to the furry convention that got gassed out with chlorine last year, and had a guy who got kicked out for wearing a confederate flag-themed fursuit this year. Furries cant keep themselves out of drama.

I've never been to a major con. But I will, soon. Getting drunk in hotel rooms is very fun.

Come to Comic Con Honolulu! I will buy all your stuff.
