So I have like three photos from the actual convention.
It's pretty much what it looks like
This picture sucks balls but this guy's costume from that PA strip was fantastic. He could switch the LEDs in his eyes from blue to red!
Matt is wearing a pokeyman on his head!
Mike is keeping it real cool with real 3d glasses
he was basically the worst freedom fighter ever
I had to get a shot of this guy's neckbeard
OH SHITS HE NOTICED ME
That guy was playing SF4 with the black guy you can kind of see next to him, but the black guy had a mic and was kind of doing this loud combination sports-style-announcing and trash talking all in one.
I can kind of understand why neckbeard was so irate, even outside of the chafing
Meatshield had what looked like real platemail armor underneath his PAX tee.
Really, he was the most prepared guy there in case the mongols invaded.
Kakos kissed MikeMan's buddy Matt on the mouth in the lobby of the Colonnade and Matt looked like he just sucked on a lemon for like 5 minutes. He was not pleased with that.
He got me on the cheeks, forehead and chin, but not mouth. It was harrowing.
edit
Meatshield was there all three days and seemed cool, even though he made us move while discussing linner.
The enforcers seemed like cool guys overall actually

KARAOKE NIGHT
So on Saturday night, I invited the gang to come to my crappy local townie bar in Cambridge that is known for karaoke. The food is basically poison, but you can't really fuck up beer that much. We took the train out to the end of the line and filed in.
Bama, Chu, Sarks, Mike, SIG, Taranis
Taranis, Bama, Amy, Jay
Jay is again breaking out the Magnum
and a gang sign i think
Mike and Kakos breaking out some shitty Boomer music seriously guys let's not celebrate that terrible generation
(neither of them were born on a bayou btw)
Sarks, SIG (aka FEM SHEP), Mike, Me!
This is a pretty great photo
Mike looks extra Finch-like here
Kakos, Amy, Jay, Chu
Chu is probably about to sneeze
This picture is mostly awesome for Kakos' expression
he looks somehow coy
I told kakos that he could not kiss dudes in my townie bar

Sark, you awesome sonofabitch. You can be damned sure I will drag your ass out of upstate New York in the near future.
This picture situation moves fast. I feel obliged to post mine. Behold the power of peer pressure. You can find the Picasa album at the link, but I've put up a couple choice ones.
Wil Wheaton. Probably altering reality or something.
The essence of soul.
This may as well be a facepalm.
Group shot. D'awwwwwwwww. MikeMan kills you with blue steel. SIG is a deer caught in headlights. No seriously, a city bus fucking came out of nowhere and almost ran her over. I'm glad she got out of the way. I don't know who those other guys are, they just showed up.
Sark's face just hangs the whole thing together.
"Scorpio, you're totally mad!"
"Ok seriously, shut the fuck up. This is important."
True love can never be hidden.
There is no SIG, only zuul.
Karaoke Photo Champions of PAXEast: SIG and MikeMan
This is the face a man makes when his head explodes.
There is something deeply existential going on in this photo.
There are lots more. These are just the ones that just jumped out at me, at this very moment.
I'm not complaining, there are a few pictures of me where I look genuinely deranged!

KARAOKE NIGHT CONTINUED
Taranis is singing! It was Mr. Roboto!
Mr. Roboto is a much longer song than you probably remember.
It is basically a rock opera.
It hurt Sarks' feelings when we told him to switch to water for a while
Mike is holding firm though
So the table on one side of us was a table full of cougars
One of them was Ayn Rand!
So of course, Kakos, Jay, Ayn Rand and Cougar #2 had to get a song going together
I don't remember what it was!
The table on the other side of us was full of fellow PAX-attending dorks. They were from the website Destructoid.com, which I guess is some sort of gaming website. Here they are singing something or other.

I can't stop fucking laughing at zuul.
If it makes you feel any better, it's not you, it's me. I'm a shitty photographer. Grade-A shitty. I even have this pretty great little Panasonic and I still manage to fuck it up. Everyone looks whiter than a ghost at a Klan meeting.
Will: I think Ayn Rand tried to flirt with me or something. First she asked me about some John Galt guy. Then she demanded that I sing Johnny Cash with her. I'm glad I had Amy around to put the kibosh on that.

Haha, we are all shitty photographers. My hands never stop shaking so it's difficult for me to snap off a clean shot.

I hate you so much for posting that!
I'm kidding. You are awesome.
But I hate that picture.
So It Goes on

MOER KARAOKE NIGHT
Mike and FEM SHEP break out the Cyndi Lauper.
Mike insisted on this song. Like, for the first two hours we were there he was trying to get someone to sing it with him.
Posts
Bama gets a little more Kakos loving
Mike is the next victim!
Taranis!
About the only picture of me for the night
Besides this one
Mike, SIG, Sarks
Robos is the next victim
SIG finds it funnier than Mike does
Frankie gets the most gentle Kakos kiss of the evening
Vari, Kakos, Bama
Sarks is pulling the old "Entertaining Lime" trick
The dude with the fedora backed off my lady like ten seconds later
The cold walk back!
It turned out that some of us caught a cab at a reasonable fare
Some of us got rooked for way too much money by an off-duty limo driver
Some of us decided to walk back in the cold and got lost!
45 minute walk in the wind!
Woo!
Aren't there pictures of me and Kakos and a little exchange we had?
There was a lot of man kissing.
Like, a lot.
P-town doesn't get this much man kissing mid-march
QEDMF xbl: PantsB G+
:?:
Also it appears Rooster Teeth already had my video of their driving bit taken down.
That's nice of them.
You'll have to supply the explanation.
I won't lie i was pretty drunk and only remember things kind of vaguely
QEDMF xbl: PantsB G+
He still has more Kingston Station pictures!
Remember the super awful series of pictures that can be turned into an animation?
He already went past those.
He quit for 2 months before taking up smoking again. Now, there were some indiscretions (a cigar, for example) and the fact he restarted smoking.
I had a check for $150 with me at the bar. I presented it to him.
He ripped it up.
Oh, that is pretty lame.
That is pretty lame, Will.
Jesus. I might as well be drooling.
It's pretty much what it looks like
This picture sucks balls but this guy's costume from that PA strip was fantastic. He could switch the LEDs in his eyes from blue to red!

Hello Jay!
I hope to meet with you again to discuss the alcoholic intricacies of law school with you while drinking!
Dinner at Legal Seafoods!
Mike, SIG, Sarks, Organichu, Bama, Taranis, MattMu
Friday night I asked for them and he did not deliver. I was sad.
He said he has like ten wikipedia tabs open at any moment just building up puns to use on the boards.
Without these resources he cannot do it so quickly!
I feel for him.
I am deathly boring in person as well, unless I'm drunk.
Wait you weren't drunk on Friday?
:P (just busting balls)

This picture is mostly awesome for Kakos' expression

I told kakos that he could not kiss dudes in my townie bar
because some townie would probably glass him
(note the six inches of bodily separation)
This picture situation moves fast. I feel obliged to post mine. Behold the power of peer pressure. You can find the Picasa album at the link, but I've put up a couple choice ones.

You know, the usual v-scroll rape.
Washed. Out.
Indeed.

He wanted to do the harmony part.
You can almost see the harmonizing.
This is how baby birds greet the mama bird
SIG's friend is hiding behind her pint glass
Jay is SERIOUS BUSINESS when he sings
Mark the Shark is doing something behind Jay
Mark the Shark loves Jay just so much oh my god
