I have to ask because... someone's going to ask it.

Are there any girls at PAX? :P

    I think the correct question is...Can I pick up said girls at PAX? (AKA: Is PAX a dating service?)

    :P

    No, we're just totally homo for guys like Liger.

    I am bummed that I might not make PAX this year because my grad school will probably be starting the week before. As much as I hate to make the choice (and believe me it's a hard one) I'll have to choose starting grad school over PAX.

    I hear that there's free ice cream at PAX. Gallons and gallons of delicious free ice cream. Is this true?

    True. I believe that's why this year, instead of an expo hall, they're actually filling the room that the hall was once in with ice cream. Not containers, but rather just the pure ice cream itself (as containers would be wasteful).

    I hear they're going to put the chocolate chip cookie dough at the far rear left wall of the hall, so to get there we are going to have to eat our way through a two story tall wall of pistachio, chocolate fudge brownie, and mint chocolate chip ice cream.

    I am prepared to do this. I'll be bringing an oversized fork and mining equipment.

    The problem with that is the BYOC is being turned into the condiments room, which, while it's incredibly awesome to have a gigantic room of chocolate syrup, peanuts, and gummy bears...it's just a gigantic mess to worry about so really PAX is just going to be one day of creamy goodness and two days of everyone being slaved collared into mopping and scrubbing

    I named my pony Morris, but he wouldn't fit in the overhead compartment, and the cargo hold was full. So I sold him to a farmer in Mississippi during the Great Depression. Him and his son had to kill it to have horse stew, which they shared with the farmer's cousin and two escaped convict friends. The farmer then called the cops, who burned down the barn. The son stole the dad's car and saved the convicts from the burning barn, but then it ran out of gas and the kid went home.

    I really liked Morris.

    We're just trying to bring the girl:guy ratio back up past 0.0005.

    I'd suggest rainbow bright, but that'd just wind up going too far into CP.

    Plus i might be about 20 years older than your average little girl, and not know wtf they like these days, since i stopped watching cartoons a long time ago.

    So from what I've gathered so far PAX is going to have an ice cream dragon provided by wizards that you must defeat while riding a pony to get into the condiment/actual ice cream rooms?

    I'm not quite sure this is the convention for me seeing as how I not ride ponies while eating ice cream good.
