Ok, that's one of those things like cheeseburger scented body spray that sounds great and is just... well no. Don't know when the last time you've been in one of those things was but it's been a good decade for me and the mere mention and I can still smell the feet and B.O. Not to disparage anyone since I'm included in this but can you imagine how bad that would be if the mass of us all lined up and passed through that after a long day on our feet?
And besides, I don't think that the irony of the actual EXISTENCE of "Brawndo" is amusing to many people. I think most of us rational humans would rather not start a chain reaction of self-fulfilling prophecies. Turning Brawndo into a real product is an invitation for ironic history on a tragically epic scale.

Today I had two friends over and we watched Idiocracy for the first time before the Superbowl. Then we saw the commercial where the dog was drinking a shitload of water, and all 3 of us at once made the joke that it'd be funny if it was a gatoraide commercial. "GATORAIDE, IT'S WHAT DOGS CRAVE! WITH ELECTROLYTES!"
There's a decent one in Pioneer Square but that's literally at the other end of downtown.
You'll probably want to ask gMaps about buffets, I don't think there are many downtown. Profit margins too thin in the first place.
That being said, if you're savvy to this "cash" thing I keep hearing about, public transit in Seattle is excellent (even early morning, but be careful that you can get back - gMaps speaks Seattle Metro transit schedules) and free downtown during the day, and there's this 24-hour joint called Beth's Cafe up by Greenlake (probably... 5-15 minutes from downtown by bus) that's a local favorite if you're incredibly hungry. And they give you paper. And crayons. And they put your art on the wall. Maybe.

My Visa card got stolen the other day. Now it's everywhere I want to be.
Aren't those the guys who make 12-egg omelettes? I've always wanted to go there.
That being said, next year I would love some sort of organized Pokemon trade system, like a bulletin board or something. The only problem is that it would need to be organized much closer to the convention, and thus would have less time to get the problems worked out.
Last year the movie The King of Kong opened up just down the street from PAX with the director Seth Gordon present.
The Onion just did an article on the movie which is an interesting read, and speaks to competitiveness turned up to such a level that it has become ugly.
I'd suggest an invitation to Seth Gordon or the producer Ed Cunningham to speak a bit on the topic.
After all, if the Onion wrote about it, it must be good. They gave Wil Wheaton a column, and we all know how that turned out.
Well like we've semi-talked about in the newbie thread she should come sing opera and finish it off with Still Alive. Provided the rest of you mooks have some class.
1. 9 band members
2. Face paint
3. Helmets with builtin microphones
4. NES Zapper
5. Arm Cannons
6. BAD ASS front man
7. Rock Opera based on Mega Man and Protoman
All this=stage show that is truly a religious experience.
I know this has been mentioned before, but to prevent really long lines for Console Freeplay and to promote a more fun and personable playing experience, could we make the games in each console static? As in, you pick the game you want to play by looking at the tv's, and to join you just sit down and play. This would make the whole having I.D thing, long lines to get and return, 1 person playing a 4 person game stuff a non-issue. It would have it's own obstacles but...thoughts?

I don't know, if you do that then you might as well just let people do the NERF guns. Anyway someone's going to get hurt.
It's good on paper, but wouldn't work out for real.
Is it possible, that, instead of Bawls... I can't finish the sentence.

...We were right. We nearly cried.
Yes, moar.

Ok... so it would be "Music in video games: All Hail Tommy T"?
Great minds think alike.
People like Marty O'Donnell or Jack Wall would be awesome to have.
Music in video games: TIMMAHHHHHH!
Coupons for restaurants nearby that want our business.
Ask a really fat guy?
I am offended sir.
What?
They know where the good food is at.

That's a huge omelet!
Well, maybe I could... but not without having a heart attack at the end.
Go out like The King on the can?:P
I thought he was banned from pax. That story still makes me LOL.
Also see if Valve will rig up wherever it happens to rain plush headcrabs and companion cubes from the ceiling during Still Alive.
And here are the reason's why:
