ConnectiCon

A wise man once said...

quote:
I don’t know what you chumps are doing this weekend, but if it’s not Connecticon then I don’t think we can talk any more. Seriously. Don’t give me that “Oh, but Brian, I’ll lose my job,” crap. Or, even worse, the “Oh, but Brian, I live thousands of miles away!” bullshit.
Those aren’t reasons. They’re excuses. And excuses are for the weak. You don’t want to be weak and ugly, do you? I mean, let’s look at what Nietzsche has to say on the subject:

“Do whatever you will, but first be such as are able to go to the goddamn Connecticon.”

Case closed. See you there.

Not that I'm aware of. I'll keep an eye open for anything that you may like though.

Yes, I'm an awesome artist, especially when it comes to cons.

When is this [horrible pun of ConnectiCon].

From 8am today until Sunday night at the Hartford Convention Center.

This year will be different for me - I'm going just to have fun. I'll help out if I'm really needed, but for the most part I'll be a faceless guest checking out new board games, playing rpgs, video games, browsing art in the artist's colony, playing in a sealed deck magic tourney or two and buying swag at the dealer's room, and maybe watching a movie or attending a panel.
