    You sneer at "nerds", and yet have advertising featuring "Gawker Artists" whose work consists of various Fantasy images.

    Just sayin'.

    @PollyAstacus: Sneering is the new adoring. Ignoring is the new sneering. Be very wary of adoration - it's the new sabotage.

    So far the best part was seeing a woman walk by and thinking, "Damn, she's got really intense makeup on, I wonder who she's supposed to be...oh, wait, she's actually just deformed."

    I'd happily snark about the level of commitment it takes to deck yourself out full stormtrooper regalia if I wasn't blowing all of my disposable income (and then some, to be honest) on sketch commissions...


    I have met a few famous people in my life, but the only ones who make me freeze up and blurt out stupid "I LOVE YOU"s are the comics artists.

    I am dissappointed at the lack of Venture Brothers costumes.


    I am also a huge nerd, if that hasn't been made obvious on the internet by now.

    I just got back. not kidding. Not in costume, though, just wore my Gamma-Go hoodie. (Btw, although there are some sexy models in costumes, there is no actual PORNO ALLEY like they have in San Diego.)

    This explains a lot - I saw some of these people on 10th Avenue and they were loud and wired.

    Any time I see pics of these things I just think, okay: I know what kind of folks go to these things. Where did those kind of folks get the kind of money necessary to buy a fucking Stormtrooper outfit?


    This is what's killing the economy. Costumes.
