22:58:04 [Pipian-Work]Incoming text dump:
22:58:05 [Pipian-Work]So, my school has a convention (Genericon). I know the people who run it, and while I don't have as high of an opinion of the people who run it as the ones who did a few years ago (more anime, less scifi these days), it's still okay.
22:58:06 [Pipian-Work]Unfortunately, there's a homestuck panel this year. Now, the panel organizer did this because he really didn't give much of a shit and is there to organize what people want, and is going to laugh at the stupidity. He's also a good friend of mine.
22:58:06 [Pipian-Work]I'm trying to decide if I request to get on the panel and fuck with the other panelers, crash it with SBaHJ quotes, or simply gouge out my eyes.
22:58:06 [Pipian-Work]Alternatively, I could leave off my normal Mr. Stopheles/Bill Zebub/Tony Stark costume (All of these involve wearing suits and insulting people) and cosplay as a homestuck character, and then fuck with people that way. Ugh.
22:58:06 [Pipian-Work]I'm not sure which will be worse, the Hetalia fans or the Homestuck ones. I was teaching a ballroom class for the con last year, and a couple girls went up to a female pair of twins and said 'You put the win in wincest', right in front of their parents.
23:00:46 [nathanbp|work]Should I ask what homestuck is?
23:00:54 [Pipian-Work]MS Paint Adventures.
23:01:01 [nathanbp|work]ah
23:01:30 [nathanbp|work]Also I'm amused at the notion that Genericon ever had that high of a level of sci fi content
23:01:49 [Pipian-Work]Well
23:01:57 [Pipian-Work]We did have the whole overnight content for two years
23:02:11 [Pipian-Work](But uh, that was sort of it.)
23:02:14 [nathanbp|work]I guess so
23:08:08 [Pipian-Work]I made an unapologetic agreement that it had gone to crap since I left. Not that he knows who I am.
23:08:33 [Pipian-Work]Also this is based solely on my assessment of their website and organizational skills as of 3 months ago.
23:09:31 [nathanbp|work]Yeah, the website thing seemed pretty terrible
23:10:15 [nathanbp|work]I suppose I should make a hotel reservation
23:14:11 [Pipian-Work]I stopped short of saying "I will go if you do this" because I realized it's not really going to be entertaining to watch.
23:14:39 [nathanbp|work]I'm just going to play board games with Mark
23:16:29 [Pipian-Work]I figured as much
