ROFLCon

[evilzug]

So a few months ago, I heard in mumbling that there was some sort of “Internet humor convention” called LOLcon or something. After some futile research I came up with nothing…

But I was just presented with the link of links this morning. Behold ROFLCon,

Oh man, I can't wait to meet you guys. I'mma give you a double-up-top. Truth be told, I'm probably going to be a bit starstruck, haha =P I'd want to interneterview you guys if possible...

I've met Hollywood celebrities face to face and it hasn't phased me because I'm not really into movies super-huge-like... but I've met the Tron Guy, and Peter Pan before and I could barely speak hahah...

Yah there's a masquerade ball that he goes to every year, http://www.labyrinthmasquerade.com/, as himself basically =P He's I think honestly the first 'internet celebrity' I'd ever run into online, so it was particularly exciting...

I was really into HomestarRunner so the bros Chaps are cool, but really you guys and XKCD are my zomg :O excited-face making thing...

Haha yeah, we have a ton of time to make plans, if any. I am really, really curious to see what kind of turn out this convention is going to have. Probably a ton of college students because of Boston, but I wonder about crazy people like me who are flying across the country...

I cannot miss this. I just can't. What hotel looks like a winner?

[evilzug]

I booked my stuff at Orbitz.com, they've never failed me.

I know the boston common area pretty well, so I got a hotel near the boston common, it's about a 10 min train ride to cambridge, probably even a faster taxi now that I'm an employed adult and an afford the trip =P

Careful if you book a hotel in cambridge itself, the ones I saw required cars... you can do the whole trip via public transportation for just a few dollars a day.

Sorry if any of this is TMI,

TL;DR:

is what I got... cheapest price for highest rated... there were a few cheaper but farther away and a little more skeevy lookin...

Sounds like a lot of fun. Is this the sort of thing that allows your average person through the doors, or is it VIP only? Not that it matters for me this go-around, since I won't be able to attend either way, but I dare to dream that someday I can be there. I can make something Internet-catchy, if needed.

"Dream it, you fucking dreamers!"

Pretty sure it's open attendence, I'm sure being considered for a guest spot or whatever is invite-only and all but I'm sure anyone can go if they get a ticket.

:3

Every person here who says they're going had better return with a photobucket full of.. um.. photos.

Even though I can't join you, I'm very excited about this. I'll bet there are going to be a lot of great stories to tell.
