hah I do think that google does fuck around with you sometimes.

I never have understood the whole game and comic thing. I dont disagree with it, I just don't understand it.

So, why are verification words things like "you suck, jackass" or "suck it, Chemgeek." I understand the need for verification, but why the personal attacks against me?

Google is more powerful than I imagined.

I used to have a t-shirt that said 'Dork'...I wore it at least once a week to school for two years...
Then I lost it on a trip to Virginia Beach that I barely remember now. And considering how many drugs I did on that trip..no surprise here.

Isn't it funny that we can't remember what we did, but we can remember how much we drank and how much pot we smoked? Or is my use of 'we' too loose?

I don't think I've ever been called boneriffic before.

; )

I promise I won't be eyeballing that picture all weekend. (Shhhh... My girlfriend might hear.)

I've met up with lots of bloggers and it has always turned out well.
ALSO - one of them was a South African. I was in the other down under and was having a pity party. I notified one of my bestie bloggers of my party and she wanted to help. But she was like- I'm totally in California and my buddy is in South Africa. What can I possibly do?
And then... then she remembered that one of her blog commenters LIVES in South Africa. So she sent this lady an email that said something like: My friend is in your area and she is sad. You must stop what you are doing and show her a good time.

It worked too. I heart bloggers.

If I'm ever in North Carolina, I'm invading your space. Just a friendly warning. Oh- and if you're ever in Southern California, you're invading mine. Don't forget.

*le sigh* I love word verification captchas. Those f*ckers are freaking funny sometimes. Although Nikki's blog totally threatened me with bodily harm the other day....

*sniffle*

PS: Scope, I heard that. :-P

You saying you can't be bothered to fly over the pond for a couple of pints?

I don't think anyone's ever called me "bonerific" before....

You chest-gazing people are sick!!!
Depraved!!!
I feel at one with you all.
Incidentally I work with pfangirl and her chest is not naturally this...er...awesome...I feel it may perhaps be due to advanced space age geek-shirt material or the unseasonal cold weather here in sunny SA.

Anyway she has had an awesome con (although she did claim to feeling out of place being neither black clad/leather wearing or pierced in unlikely places.) You may even want to follow her on twitter too - username pfangirl (a nice geek she is but alas, somewhat lacking in imagination.)

And she is never EVER going to live Scope's comment down. Trust me I'm her boss!!!

Sometimes I think those word verification gnomes are actually reading my mind. enerd...love it!!

MJenks, I don't know whether to thank you for this blog love or seek potent online revenge (especially since you even got my boss to break out of lurker mode and comment above).

*begins plotting*

As it turns out, I did have a great time at ICON, and got to try out a number of different things... as well as establish that the rumoured geek hierarchy does actually exist in reality!

The "look at my chest" advertising strategy achieved marginal success. Being Winter down here it was incredibly cold, and I found my shirt was somewhat camouflaged by a jacket and scarf. However, by the end of Sunday I did have a few people coming up to me and asking if I was "the cartoonist."

BTW, I will wear the title of "enerd" with pride :)

Yay bloggers.

I was so excited when I realized my blog was being read by English folks. Because hey, they're foreign and that's awesome. Although, Mo.stoneskin would disagree with that (not the awesome part...but the foreign part).
