Vermonster jokes already? But we just burly got here...
Con report time!
The bad: Messing up my feet real bad Friday night during the ball by wearing crappy sandles.
The good: Everything else!
Number of Penisface jokes made all weekend: Like, ONE. To Dan. During brunch.
The highlight of the weekend was Vermonster Redux - aka let's take some fucking gross pictures of Matt Miller shoving more food than is normal into his mouth. Back in 2005 at Bakuretsucon, we ended up at the original Ben and Jerry's in Vermont, where we failed at consuming an entire Vermonster right after eating a big dinner. The still-soupy Vermonster was then brought back to the hotel, washed out in the tub by someone who shall remain nameless, and then was responsible for clogging the thing, creating a nice ice cream and brownie layer. hopallee, tuantuan, blinkidybah, ali_wildgoose, gothic_ham, foenixfyre, and various other people managed to do it this time, although it was getting pretty gross at the end. Especially as Matt Miller decided that the lack of cookies and brownies that this particular Ben and Jerry's had was "unacceptable," walked down to the Paradise Bakery, bought some cookies and brownies, and gave them to the cashier to put in the Vermonster.
I'm pretty convinced that the upper left corner will make the best icon ever.
Please enjoy some tomassery. Please also note that the still frame youtube decided to select is of Dan doing his "I'm a happy boy!! :) :) :)" handclap.
Before
After. This is basically the worst thing to ever happen.
Bleeeuaaagh.
Vermonster trophy, aka hat.
Da ball! Me, Carrie as A-Chan (Anime Boston's female mascot), and Hope who was basically responsible for putting said ball together.
Matt Miller in a suit? That's improssibleble!!!
Scone got a new Agatha Heterodyne wig.
Additional happs: ali_wildgoose, erinfinnegan, Scott, and Noah stayed over at Casa de baby Seal. However, not too much actually happened until Sunday Night - where there was much drunken ravellry via Val's awesome drinks, and watchings of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - as Ali and Dan's lack of knowledge was criminal and needed to be rectified. Turns out that Val and her brother are just as big of Shakespeare nerds as Scone and I are, and so there was some extreme geeking the fuck out, culminating in an extremely cool drawing of Hamlet, Horatio, and Ophelia, which is now on our fridge. This also reminds me that we have not yet watched our German Hamlet rock opera dvd yet where everyone is wearing crazyass vinyl costumes, WTF WTF WTF?!
Finally - Carrie, as of yesterday Hammy and Viola have actually ripped the long mousie toy you gave them in two. I have NO IDEA how they managed this. At least now they don't have to share?!
P.S. Happy late towel day!
