can it be con time again? I like con time.

No fewer than two coworkers greeted my return to work last Tuesday with "I hear you hate kids." For the record, I do not hate kids. I am not good with groups of kids. It's different! But still a good reason not to make me work storytime. Clearly I was missed! But then, most of my coworkers didn't know I'd been away. I am a woman of mystery. ( Read more... )

Oh yes, CLEARLY IT WAS MY TRICKS. Not you know the awesome action-comedy with all the hot funny badass people being hot and funny and badass. Clearly all my fault. *takes credit*

I THINK IT WAS. You were all like, "Oh, here, we have this thing with Don McKellar being ridiculous. You like him, right? Good ole Darren Nichols? Curtis?" And then BAM! SURPRISINGLY ENTERTAINING ACTION-COMEDY HIJINX.

You and me both! The vid at the viewing party started it, and the awesome pimping job solidified it (to the point that maybe I have the pilot movie in my Netflix queue). OF course since the pimpers gave me a ride to the airport, I had a little more personal attention (and omg this is starting to sound dirty) and was pimped some more.

And it was so terrific to meet you and spend time and learn awesome fangirly fortune-telling card games and and and!!! I am looking forward to seeing the pix when I get home!

That vid! The CHAINSAWS. Seriously, this show cannot possibly be real, it is something that mrs_laugh_track and belmanoir dreamed up and convinced the rest of us to believe in.

Ditto, ditto, ditto! Well, except for the pix, I suppose, because I've seen mine. But I look forward to seeing other people's in the future?

Edited for underscores.

Chainsaw fighting = NOT EVEN THE MOST RIDICULOUS AMAZING FIGHT SCENE IN THE SHOW. Just saying.

Would you be alluding to the gun fight from rolling office chair? I remember you mentioning that one... Actually, you know what? I'm standing behind YOU'RE MAKING THIS UP. NO ONE FIGHTS WITH CHAINSAWS. Not even lumberjacks, for serious.

Also? *acquires*

Fangirls clearly need a secret 'attending a con' hand signal that we can throw in airports.

*watches Once A Thief* with you and the other converts* Chainsaws!

I'm saying! Instead we're all, *peer* *peer more* *walk slowly past* *throw out a nice shirt/button/boots compliment*

They had us at CHAINSAWS. But the actual episode helped, too.

mmmmm, Hugh Dillon + dirty.

..ahem. hi! :D

(seriously, were you there the first or second time we watched That Scene? because the obscene noises we all made the first time.. uh, were obscene. :D?)

ifreet April 20 2010, 20:26:47 UTC
Mmm-hm. HI.

(The second, I think, because it was definitely being shown as a delightful excerpt of out-of-context theater. Though does gunplay need context? No. :D!)

Thank you for making my con experience as enjoyable as it was! I was quite afraid that I wouldn't meet anybody to hang out with, and you were exactly as much somebody who I really liked as I had always theoretically thought, and I hope I didn't get in your way too much hanging around, but it was really great to meet you.

The "I, too, am Spartacus" moment of accidental back-to-back Spartacus pimps was terrific.

This was one of my best moments of the con! Pure solid gold awesome.

♥ &you;

It was wonderful to have the chance to hang out with you -- you are absolutely as wonderful in person as you've always seemed via internet.

...Which is what I meant about you. Yes. *beams*
