Comic con sucks, I'd like hunt for friend Comic con sucks loves escorts

Hey, Geeks. Welcome to Your Favorite Thing Sucks, where I get to talk about all the worst parts of your favorite things.

Comic-Con is one of the greatest things to ever happen to Geekdom. Because everyone else there loves Geekery as much as we do, right? And yet, there are so many things that people can and WILL do to ruin your experience. I LOVE that there are so many talented, creative people out there who can make my favorite characters come to life. Because there is a very real and very dirty secret in the cosplay community. I talked about this in more detail in my Deadpool Post.

The ultimate fans vs. critics face-off is coming back to san diego!

And still… look at that look of disgust. You can just wear a t-shirt about your favorite show, or a handbag. Or a pin. FSC is the thing that ruins fandoms, and consequently cons, for everyone. Because chances are jerks with FSC are going to be standing next to you in line over and over again.

Reasons why comic-con is the worst place ever

Which will inevitably lead to another 20 minutes of mocking your knowledge of every single Marvel movie thus far and the comics that the movies got wrong. Look at that line. Which brings us to…. I already mentioned that Comic-Con is one of the best things to happen to Geek Culture and that everyone should go at least once. The problem is that everyone understands that.

And people will charge you an arm and leg so you can get that experience. Want to park within walking distance of the convention center? Your hotel room is going to cost three times as much as any other weekend of the year. As Comic-Con becomes more expensive and the wage gap in America continues to grow, the percentage of elite congoers vs.

I love comic books, but i hate comic-con

All of that is worth those four days of fandom and love and absolute Geekery. But we never really think about when we get home again, do we? But think about that last day. Exhausted and sweaty from walking between the Con and our cars and back again. Then it hits you.

The tickle in the back of your throat. The cough. The Crud. You might wash your hands a hundred times standing in line outside the bathroom for 45 minutes for just the CHANCE to wash the germs away but you know that not enough people use soap to make a difference and the dispensers in this bathroom are all out, anyway.

Your favorite thing sucks: comic-con

Hell, at this point, all the Purell in the world will not save you, and you go back to work the next day feeling like death and still swearing up and down that it was worth it. That this was the best weekend of your life.

That you will definitely go again next year. That maybe Comic-Con… just sucks. View all posts by Tahani Nelson.
