For those getting back from GenCon

[reveal]

Welcome home! We missed you while you were out.

Cold and misty morning, I heard a warning borne in the air
About an age of power where no one had an hour to spare
Where the seeds have withered, silent children shivered, in the cold
Now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold
I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there

Suffering in silence, they've all been betrayed
They hurt them and they beat them, in a terrible way
Praying for survival at the end of the day
There is no compassion for those who stay
I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there

There must be someone who can set them free
To take their sorrow from this odyssey
To help the helpless and the refugee
To protect what's left of humanity
Can't you see
Can't you see
Can't you see

I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there
To heal their sorrow
To beg and borrow
Fight tommorow

Step inside, hello
We've the most amazing show
You'll enjoy it all we know
Step inside, step inside

We've got thrills and shocks
Supersonic fighting cocks
Leave your hammers at the box
Come inside, come inside

Roll up, roll up, roll up, see the show

Left behind the bars
Rows of Bishops' heads in jars
And a bomb inside a car
Spectacular, spectacular

If you follow me
There's a speciality
Some tears for you to see
Misery, misery

Roll up, roll up, roll up, see the show

Next upon the bill
In our house of vaudeville
We've a stripper in a till
What a thrill, what a thrill

And not content with that
With our hands behind our backs
We pull Jesus from a hat
Get into that, get into that

Roll up, roll up, roll up, see the show

Welcome back my friends
To the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend
Come inside, come inside

There behind the glass
Stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass
Move along, move along

Come inside, the show's about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth
You've got to see the show --- it's a dynamo
You've got to see the show --- it's rock and roll

Soon the Gypsy Queen
In a glaze of Vaseline
Will perform on guillotine
What a scene, what a scene
Next upon the stand
Will you please extend a hand
to Alexander's Ragtime Band
Dixieland, dixieland
Roll up, roll up, roll up, see the show

Performing on a stool
We've a sight to make you drool
Seven virgins and a mule
Keep it cool, keep it cool
We would like it to be known
The exhibits that were shown
Were exclusively our own
All our own, all our own

Come and see the show!
Come and see the show!
Come and see the show!
See the show!

LOL, well gencon wasn't quite *that* interesting, IYKWIMAITYD.

Speak for yourself.

oh right, with the holding the buttocks in the hotel room thing and all that.

 

[Cthulhu's Librarian]

I held no buttocks! Got rubbed by a few on Friday evening, but I didn't touch!

I feel the need to clarify this by saying these were not my buttocks that got rubbed on CL. And he's lucky that he only got rubbed. Some of the buttocks in question kicked my ass and stole my money. And I'm lucky to even HAVE a right nipple at this moment.

So yes, now that I think about it, it was as good a GenCon as reveal implied.

I think Ethernaut got worked over pretty good too.

I'm not entirely sure about CL, because I lost track of him for about an hour... So, maybe he was just having inncocent fun like the rest of us (in all honesty, my attention was elsewhere). We'll never know. Unless we can get him to talk.

Ooohhhh yyeeeaaaah!

Speaking of bruises, Tonya wanted me to add that she loved your massage, Rel, but you left marks! She didn't know you were into BDSM.

It's a hurtin' kind of healin'. Sort of like Honka Thonka's Club of Healing.

The Gen Con Crowd

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the halls of Indy
Rode the Gen Con crowd.
"Forward, the Virtual Dungeon!"
"Charge for the dice!" he said:
Into the convention hall of Indy
Rode the Gen Con Crowd

"Forward, the Gen Con crowd!"
Was there a person dismay'd?
Not tho' the gamer knew
The dice had blunder'd:
Their's not to make reply,
Their's not to reason why,
Their's but to do and die:
Into the convention hall of Indy
Rode the Gen Con crowd

Dice to right of them,
Cards to left of them,
Minis in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with ticket and vendor,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the late night,
Into the early morn’
Rode the Gen Con Crowd.
