Easter, Supanova and all that junk.
Apr. 17th, 2006 03:16 amIt would seem my family has still to learn that they should never, EVER ask for an explanation of what's on the badges I wear around. Let's just say that if they ever decide to go into forensic sciences they won't be a stranger to the term "auto-erotic asphyxiation".
So Happy Chocolate Bunnies Day to everyone! I have acquired far more eggs than I could ever eat and have no idea what to do with them all. Throw them at random Supanova peeps? Who knows.
Speaking of Supanova! Here's a few notes for those of you making the trip north for the bi-annual geek trade fair:
*If your cosplay cannot be described by the terms "skimpy", "slutty" or "DA-YUM!", you will die from heatstroke. For the love of all that is good and yaoi, bring water! It was 28 degrees the night before last. Don't expect things to change anytime soon.
*The place where the 'Nova is being held isn't in the city per-se. If you wanna get to the city you'll need to hop on a bus like the 346. Healthcare cards and student IDs are worth bugger all outside your home state, so be prepared to pay full fee.
*That said, the venue is right on the outskirts of Fortitude Valley, aka Here Thar be Hoes and Stabbings. Take care after dark >.>
*We've only just started using integrated ticketing in the past few months. Please be gentle.
*Do not get lost navigating your way across the river if you decide to check out the CBD. In Brisbane, a the amount of bridges a city has is directly proportional to the length of its penis. So far our manmeat can be used as a skipping rope and a firehose all at once.
*7000 people come to this expo. You can be waiting in line to get in for an hour in the hot sun. That is why I suggest getting there either two hours early or two hours late. Either way you'll probably be working on your tan.
*The RNA showgrounds are spread out over two city blocks- make sure you get the right one >.> (Just follow the smell of g33k.)
And on a sidenote, Brisbane=Sizzler. I do believe some of us will be making the most of this opportunity. Silly southern states.
