I'm So Glad That Comic Con is Doing Well, But People Need to Get the Heck Out of My Way

Korrin and I went to Salt Lake Comic Con on Saturday, and HOLY CRUD was there a lot of people.

And, as all of you know, I do not do well with people.

At all.

Ever.

And there were a LOT of people there.

When we first got onto the floor, I turned to Korrin and hissed "THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE" in her ear. Thankfully, she agreed.

Later, we found out that the building had reached mass capacity and that the fire marshal shut the building down a couple of times and wouldn't let anybody else in.

The con sold out of tickets TWO HOURS after they opened.

The master himself, Stan Lee, called Salt Lake Comic Con "the greatest Comic Con in the world."

Take THAT, SDCC!

Anyways, the entire experience was a blast (other than people, but WHAT ARE YA GONNA DO).

I went over budget by about $10, but it was totally worth it. TOTALLY worth it.

And Korrin even got to see Alan Tudyk as we walked by his booth. She freaked out a little and then marveled that his head was bigger than she expected it to be.

I also caught her inspecting a man's kilt to see if he was wearing it the traditional way.

(He wasn't.

In case you were wondering.

Korrin noticed.)

We dressed up as hipsters while sporting our Hogwarts house colors. Nobody really caught on to what we were doing, but it didn't matter. We felt awesome anyways. It was even greater when we hopped on Trax and sat near some actual real live hipsters. One of them was even wearing skinny jeans that matched mine.

And speaking of trains, there was a mighty fine Capsicle riding back on the train with us. We were very sly, though, only occasionally turning around to look and then immediately whipping back around to giggle at each other following the staring. It was obviously very secretive and nobody knew that we were ogling some boy.

We have standards.

But yeah. Comic Con. 10/10 would recommend.
