Title: Anyone for Yaoi-con?
Post by: Pel on September 04, 2006, 06:50:16 pm
Hey! Any other Portland folks out there heading to Yaoi-con this year? Kumoricon was so fun, it's just gotten me more excited to go! This will be my first year, and I can't manage to drag any of my boring (and/or broke) friends along. :P Hoping to find people who might be interested in roadtripping it, but even if you can't make it, would love to at least connect with some other local fans...

Aw man! The registration for that is so lame~ I'm turning 18 on the last day of Yaoicon, so even if I would be able to leave school somehow, I wouldn't be able to go. T____T

I mean, I like girls and all. Haha, don't get me wrong. I like all the colours of the rainbow. :3

But I've already got a significant other.
I'd get raped by fangirls, and he would...
Probably laugh at me for being a weakling. D:>>

Are you thinking of going to Yaoicon if you get the money?


@ Pel: Noo. D:> I'd cry. XD

*agrees*

The age thing at Kumoricon kinda ticked me off too.
Like I REALLY wanted to go the Bakazoku 18+ panel but they said I couldnt even with my guardian and her permisson. I'm 16, not 10, it's not like I've ever heard cursing and sex jokes before..... *roles eyes*  Even my sister says I probably have cursed more then them, my one bad habbit, lol. They should at least make some of that stuff 15 or 16+
Hentai I understand being more 18+ but like rating Excel Saga 17, when I own the whole sereies..... sine I was 15.

One staff memeber said she was in charge of an 18+ event and said she would feel weird with someone under 18 in there even with my guardian cause she knows what kinda of stuff goes on, well.... I wouldnt feel uncomfy, and If I did, I would just leave, no biggy.

Hi Kouta, so at 29 did that make me the oldest person you hung out with? (BTW this is Beau, I was with Ellen and Fox)
 And to answer the topic I'm going to Yaoi-con next month.

Wait, I thought k-con HAD turned into Yaoicon?!?! XD;; Though y'know, I don't have a problem with yaoi, and most of my friends like it, but after getting a ringing in my ears from all the screeching girls at k-con... I don't think I'm gonna go to yaoicon... too traumatized. x_____x;;

I have the cash and the age but with college I just don't got the time.... I was lucky enough not to have any classes yesterday..... I think I would have died so instead I slept for 14 hours to recuperate from Kumoricon.
