nerd cons are pretty much the equivalent of a continous multiple-day sexual assault anyway
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."geeks are literally the opposite of cool
i have been felt up and/or sexually harassed at every single nerd gathering i have ever been to
including when i was twelve by some ragna (i think? costume kinda sucked) cosplayer
it's why i stopped going to Magic tournaments, i got fucking sick of it.
this one
, which is the only convention nearby enough for me to attend
my fists are ready

that makes me feel sexually assaulted
pack a pocket knife
i'm only half-joking
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."I would go, because male privilege hooray.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Because I've always wanted to go to a convention to see what it's like. Besides being filled with unwashed fedora-wearers, anyway, and because pretty much nobody in the entire city even knows what an anime is. I've actually had to explain the concept to people. You know those annoying Facebook memes making fun of the "normies" that are exaggeratedly sheltered from anything even vaguely anime or video game related? It's that. It's literally that, only it's real and I actually have to explain to people what anime and video games are in 20-goddamn-16.
I have actually heard the sentence "hey [name removed], you like those weird cartoon things, right?" uttered out of someone's actual mouth
like how the fuck do you not know what that is, this isn't the nineties
So I'm going and maybe there will be a whole six people there.
None of my friends are interested in going, for the reasons listed in the above paragraph.

i've been tempted to go to a con they do locally sometimes, but mostly just to laugh at the wastes of flesh that hang around there
but seriously, spaz, do try to grab some sort of weapon, lest some smelly guy that looks like sailor bubba grabs you and decides to do horrible things to your privates
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."Bible belt, yo.
I bring my DS to work for street passes now, and do you know how many passes I've gotten?
None. Not a single one of them. The lobby is filled to the brim with rich 12-18 year olds every day fucking around on their Macbooks and leeching our wifi, and not a one of them even owns a DS.
don't want to risk getting barred by security, but i can hit pretty hard if need be
i'm the angry punchy one remember

Where is this con?
The damned queen and the relentless knight.
