Someone either talk me out of applying to run a panel at Y-con on Satty night entitled "Fandom Wank: Your Thoughts on Yaoi" or offer to co-run it with me.

PLZ.

ETA: I submitted the application for the panel, with the description

Don't do it. It's not worth the headache.

[ryuutchi]

But... but...

[hannahrorlove]

No buts! You have enough to worry about as it is! People would come and they would say mean things! To your face!

Saturday is the AMV contest and Masquerade, and then ofcourse the auction. So not sure how well attended it would be. But you would get those who are not into those events. I want a panel one day about how all the 'kids' getting into yaoi, has destroyed what was once a beautiful and fun 'adult' fandom.

[ryuutchi]

Actually, my major problem on Satty is that my good friends are having a party to celebrate the expansion of their comic book shop that Saturday evening. So, regardless, I'm probably going to miss the major events. I just want to come back early and see if anyone else wants to talk about cat macros, Harmonians, the yaoi bias on fanficrants, and shivving people.

Do you think I could get it past the Panels Chairperson? (You're gonna be at the bishie auction, right? No chance of you hanging out with me? XD)

[vampireanneke]

I'll be at the AMV contest, IN the Masquerade and watching the auction. I'm not wanting to buy this year (save the money for more dolls). I know most of the bishies and think of most of them as little brothers. I did meet one bishie...but turned out he was far to young...sigh... Such is the case.

[ryuutchi]

How young is "far too young" exactly? XD

[ryuutchi]

And why aren't you coming? We don't bite. Often. Much. ... I'm lying.

Re: Whee, my favorite icon!

[ryuutchi]

Oof, yeah, I can see that. Y-con is more about friends than anything else for me at this point. Friends and hot guys.

[bonobochick]

Oh lord no, please don't do that to yourself.

[ryuutchi]

XD What? Running a panel, or running a panel about Fandom Wank?

[bonobochick]

Fandom wank, while fun, can be dangerous territory...

[ryuutchi]

We eat our own. ♥

[hannahrorlove]

Also, the whole Yom Kippur thing.

[ryuutchi]

What Yom Kippur thing? Y-con isn't until the end of October.

[hannahrorlove]

I did not know that! I just associated the "saturday night" you mentioned with the current week, knowing nothing about Y-Con.
