My God, The Nerds, The Nerds

August 20, 2005

Just a quick post to say that if one happens to be in the vicinity of the Convention Center/Camden Yards area, you simply must walk, drive, or rail past the convention center this weekend. On my way to work this morning I saw a furry in person for the first time. It’s quite an experience.

There’s also lots of very young-looking Japanese girls giggling and carrying disturbing plush toys. The whole scene is just very strange.

    Yeah, I was out to dinner in Mt. Vernon last night, and in the middle of the meal the place was suddenly beset upon by a plague of asian geeks. (can I say that?)

    Turns out that Otakon (the big annual gathering of lovers of japanese anime) is in Baltimore this year. Yeeesh. I’m a big nerd, and still… YEEESH. Let’s meet up in front of the convention center tomorrow and shoot rubber bands at the furries.
