HOLY SHIT, FUCK YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER CARED ABOUT!

I wanted to go to Space Con and decided that it was simply too expensive, especially just a couple of weeks after going to see Rocky Horror Picture Show live. I hope it's amazing and that the entire guest list actually shows up. A few years ago, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rick Moranis showed up for their first cons and everyone assumed that Alamo City Comic Con was just pulling our leg, so I wouldn't totally discount your favorite celebrities being there.

And I'm up late cuz it's the weekend and I gotta find some way to fuck myself over. Might as well be fucking up my sleep cycle.

The Freeman Coliseum isn't way too far from me, so DM me if you wanna meet up and mutually murder each other or say hi or something.

Frakes was supposed to be here but he has family stuff or something going on. I'm excited about LeVar Burton but I'm afraid I'm going to sit on the floor crying and singing the Reading Rainbow song.

Man, I love when I find gold like this in the comments section!

I saw Frakes at ACCC a few years ago, that was pretty cool to attend his talk. Billy Zane was my favorite, though. As for LeVar, dude seems so cool, he'd probably sit and sing with you.

Worst experience I've had at a con: excitedly meeting Jaimie Kennedy (I was literally the only person to walk his queue) and finding out that he's a mega-asshole. Also smells like an asshole. I threw away his autograph in front of him and told him that he lost his only fan at the entire con.

Hey, I'm sorry I missed you while I was in town. I love your face anyway and now I'm out here in H-town making bad decisions.

No worries. I've never been more proud of you

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You've never been proud of me at all!

Couldn't beer further from the truth. Son, I am not disappoint

I've never had a bad con experience, luckily enough. I love Billy Zane, but I'm afraid if I ever meet him I'll just ramble about Winter Dragon.

Now I have things to do. I'll catch you either later this evening or tomorrow.
