The Good:
– Seeing our San Francisco friends is always a pleasure and always motivating. We WILL move closer as soon as we can. :-)
– Cute girls in costumes.
– Running around with the Barbarian Horde.
– Meeting the best Ohura EVAR! Hey, Courtney!!
– Getting my B5 poster finished! Boxleitner, Scoggins and Furst FTW!
– The best Miss Klingon Pageant in YEARS!
– Seeing the Shatner/Nimoy panel – even if it was remotely. They need to do this for ALL the MAIN panels next year – face it, the venues are TOO SMALL.
– And the best GOOD of all! I present Pussy in the Wild:
The Bad:
– Only getting into 2 panels due to overcrowding.
– Missing Adam Savage completely.
– Getting only a glimpse of Mary McDonnell.
– Never seeing Shatner, Nimoy OR Stewart in person at all. Where did they keep them?
– Sore feet and the ever present chafing. Gah!
– Nick didn’t feel well for most of the con.
The Ugly:
– SEC fans being the Philistines that they are. Stormy got hit with an EGG (wtf?) and there were numerous reports of horrible behaviour by Va Tech fans. Those buttfuckers should stay home with their wife/aunt/cousin. Clearly they don’t know how to act.
– D*Con once again stuns with complete inability to plan for or alleviate long lines – esp at registration. 2 hrs 45 mins of my life wasted in line for a fucking badge. I wish that old lady in charge of the registration would die already so someone with some sense could get technology in there. Just damn.
– Having my art from Ted stolen from the 22nd floor lobby. I hope whoever took it dies in a fire. Fucking asshole.
– Once again getting flamed for posting on the DCon LJ about the stolen art because I DARED to imply that someone from the con would steal. I said STOLEN art and that I’d PROSECUTE if I find the art on eBay. Which I WILL. Stolen means that someone did not turn it in to Lost/Found. If it wasn’t turned in, it was stolen. Pretty simple. DragonCon can suck it and so can the LJ clique that feels EVERYONE needs a good flame – especially when they are upset and posting about a missing item. I hope they are treated just as shitty if they ever lose something or have a theft. I detest the Dragoncon LJ and have no idea why I ever thought that posting there would be a good idea. They suck and did I mention they can all die in a fire?
– Realising that the Con crowd is just as rude and snarky as the SEC crowd – but not brave enough to do it in person. The nerds are more of the passive aggressive type that would rather flame you in a forum. They only help when it suits them.
