Are we having a slumber party?

I think if it was just this thread and it was just a meet up, despite how completely unrealistic that is on every level, it probably wouldn't be that bad. We're all of somewhat comparable ages and have normal interests in common outside of the one thing, so we'd probably just look and act like a normal group of people.
Now if it was the entire SBF fanbase, yeah, that'd be a shitshow.
So I brought up before, but since I'm a little over halfway done the current arc in my story. (11 chapters) I was thinking about having my next arc take place in France and Egypt, considering two of the characters in the story are from said place. Unfortunately, I never actually been there and writing for them might be a little strange.
The current arc just takes place in a town, larger than most towns but smaller than a city. In an unknown state and place. (This is so I can put what I want in the area without contradicting things)

Documentaries and books will help fill in most blanks about places without going there, but I like to take the lazy and superior approach, know as little as possible about a place or subject before writing about it and make every detail up based on your limited knowledge of it blown into extremes to fill out a country. Though that probably doesn't work in writing that isn't terrible or ridiculous, so you'll just have to do some research.

Damn, do you mind if I ask where you got that? I got my brother's name for secret santa and he's batshit for Pokemon.
That's pretty rad

Yeah I wouldn't mind going to a meet up.
Is that the first pokemon poster? Still. It looks super sick

You guys wouldn't wanna goto a SBF con, but I just wanna catch one of their panels at a con. I need to get some people to go with me to one.
By the time you finish Part 3 you're going to want to add a stand to your avatar.

I might have to gift a friend the Stairfax one. I only looked at the Zelda posters last time this was linked, thanks.

I've only been to big cons, but there are a lot of things to do there.
Dealer's rooms are great places to do shoping for miscellaneous things from dakimakura to hype t-shirts.
Panels are great for learning more about different things such as writing an anime series to learning about the new english releases.
Game rooms and photo stuff are also cool for the people who like to game or cosplay.
I need to go back to one in the summer.
We'll make it work.

I've tempted myself into wanting to go to NYCC, but the crowd are fucking terrible and there's obnoxious tourists that will ruin my experience.

These ain't no thrift shop ninety nine cent posters.
A SBF convention would be majorly overkill given the organisation and funds required to do such a thing. It would be much better just to organise a weekend where the guys stream for 48 hours and get wasted online with everyone else across the world in the comfort of their own homes.

Is it at a convention center? I wouldn't wanna go one that does. Even though it might be bigger, convenience>room. From what I've heard about some cons in NYC, they are heavily unorganized and don't even check for your pass, so I don't think its really worth it, but check around the NYC OT about it. I might be wrong
I usually find the artwork and then I have a buddy that goes to Graphic Design classes and he prints it out for me on poster sheets. I only do this when the poster are at a super ridiculous prices

But they said Benedict Cumberpatch was gonna be there!
At least no one funneled chlorine gas into the convention center.

Who would have doubted that they were the hypest podcast on Itunes?
One of the saddest pictures I've every seen.
Congrats to them! They deserve it.

I'm still waiting on my econ final.
The anticipation is real. My life depends on me passing that class.

I don't know the full story, but it was some con that promised a ton of shit and was super expensive, then had none of those things and was mostly empty.
