Depends where in Virginia

Fairfax Co. is pretty good, although it's really more a part of D.C. than it is the rest of VA

Yeah, I should have specified the part that isn't pretending its D.C. to avoid being associated with Virginia.

In Bizzaro world.

And even there is sucks, it's just that awesome means bad there.

Fandyien

I mean, large swathes of Virginia are social cesspools, but lots of it is progressive and interesting

Fort1tude

this is going to be so fucking awesome

Redeemer

Still two years down the line

I'm going to echo ascot's sentiment: a lot of you will probably be dead by then

Dude, if I see a five dollar bill in a pile of horse shit, I'm cutting my losses.

And I'm Jewish.

Me Too!

Me Too!

Wait

Redeemer

Really though, who knows what'll happen in the interim

Maybe Seattle will sink into the ocean, killing the entire population

Or maybe a gang of terrorists will bomb Seattle, killing the entire population

Or maybe there's an outbreak of the avian flu in Seattle, killing the entire population

Who's to say?

Who's to say.

Redeemer

Or maybe like a portal to hell opens up in the middle of Seattle

Tim-O

so, basically what you're saying is... there's a good chance Seattle will cease to exist in the near future?

Vladimer

No, he's saying that Seattle will turn into New Jersey.

Theidar

New Hellmouth found under 1st Starbucks.

Redeemer

Not necessarily

I'm just saying that Seattle will in all likelihood soon become the hosting ground of an apocalyptic disaster

ascot

if all goes to plan
right redeemer
right

Redeemer

*taps nose*

Muggins

Redeemer in 2010 I will still not be able to legally drink.

But we can still do our business hug

Redeemer

Oh god way to make me feel old

Business hug plan terminated

Muggins

I'll wear a pink tie and you can have like a red one or something

Vladimer

Me Too!

I'm going to be about six months shy of 21 at ECPAX '10
So one of you legal people needs to buy it

trentsteel

Guys I got really drunk

Where are my shoes?


Did you know that walking around the streets with socks on is an exquisite for the senses in the feet?

trentsteel

exquisite experience that is.

Every kind of sidewalk is new and different in terrifying and wonderful ways.

Macro9

Rubbing your bare feet across concrete feels great.

Muggins

Seriously deemer

I'm gonna pack a pair of ties when I go and when we meet I will hand you one and I'll put mine on

then we hug

trentsteel

CAPTAIN K if you are listening I need in your room for my shoes.


Oh man, last night we saw two ENFORCERS drink, eat and then STIFF THE FUCKING WAITRESS WITH THE BILL.

The good news is, Agent Vesago accidentally got them on film when he was capturing the awesome spectacle of me eating with his HD video camera.

Those dudes are so busted now.

Theidar

That is a werid fetish you got there Veretas.

Me Too!

PAXE '11 I'm going to apply to be an Enforcer

You're gonna tip me after, right?

Muggins

It is a distinct possibility

Also then we can go get comic books and shit

Man, guys. I hit the nail right on the head so hard. I called the month of the convention AND the venue. Source: Joystiq via BigDownload.

Well, that was fast. After revealing that the East Coast iteration of Penny Arcade Expo is heading to Boston in 2010, we now have more specific details care of BigDownload and PA director of sales Mike Fehlauer. In an interview with BigD, Fehlauer confirmed that the window is "late March 2010" and will be at John B Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center, a venue with 193,000 square feet of exhibit space, roughly the same amount as this year's PAX. However, Fehlauer noted that the first PAX EC will not be planned as a huge vent first, with growth planned every year.

Penny Arcade will handle exhibitor booking, event planning and other content, while the grunt work (labor unions, hotels, etc.) will be done by Reed Exhibitions (New York Comic-Con). When asked if there are any potential conflicts with the Game Developers Conference, Fehlauer explained that they feel the audiences are disparate (industry vs. consumer) and both events are very different.

Skull Man

wait, March?

hmm.

Daric

Holy shit not only will I be able to come to Boston for this, but I will be 21.
