PAX08 Was A Bargain.

This was the first year I had ever gone to PAX, and boy was it worth the $45. Day 1 started with me meeting Ken Le-fucking-vine, and by meeting him I mean I stared at him awkwardly as he sat no more than 10 feet away from me. I was too big of a bitch to go up and ask him for an autograph and a picture and shower him with undulations of praise and awe, but I saw the man, the myth, the legend. KEN LE-FUCKING-VINE!

Also games and shit. I got to play Dead Space and I waited in line to play Left 4 Dead, but most of my time was spent perusing the show floor, greedily stealing whatever looked the least bit free from each of the boothes. All in all, I netted 8 shirts, awesome posters, 2 Magic decks and 9 booster packs, a 360 faceplate and I got to see Sai steal a backpack. Badass.

Davis cosplayed as Link, also badass, Ben won the SC tourney and nothing else happened that David hasn't talked about. In summation, PAX was awesome, 8 shirts for 45 bucks, I kinda stalked Ken Levine, Ben is my new god and I will definitely go again next year.

Also, finished Watchmen today, and pants are indeed still wet.

  1. Damn, you should have gotten a bioshock poster somehow and gotten ken levine to sign it. that shit would increase the pwnage of your room (which i have never seen) to legendary levels.

  2. Yes, well, maybe if someone hadn't already rushed off to college, he might have been able to suggest it at the time instead of a week after the fact so that I wouldn't be kinda pissed off about how I should have done EXACTLY that.
