Someone said that nobody looked like how they imagined us to be. Who was that?


I did. Everyone here looked older than expected and more normal than expected.

Here I was expecting everybody to look like the angry video game nerd mixed with some Carl Wheezer. I thought also that the average age there was gonna be like 18 with a couple outliers just breaking into the 20s and instead the average age there was like 25. If anything I was one of the youngest members of the conference, a kid of 21.

And then one day you look in the mirror and you realize that you ain't you anymore. You're just another monster, and thanks to your actions, someone else will eventually become as warped and twisted as you. Never forget that the best of us are just the best of a bad lot. Being at the top of a pile of feces doesn't make you anything but shit like the rest. Never forget that.

Some of us are older than our twenties. In fact quite a few of us were.

I only had 7 beers and a bottle of wine. That shouldn't make me feel this shit.


That sounds like quite a lot actually. Did you drink plenty of water after that?

Interesting. I'm not going to post a pic, but I'll give you two hints: I'm 56 years old and I am white.

Show me your best guess, I will not be offended.

If it was white wine I wouldn't feel this bad, I'm kind of used to that amount. Red wine is always a bad idea though.

I dunno, I felt like it was pretty chaotic at times with just our 15. I shudder to think what it'd be like with ten more people there.

All in all it was a grand time and I found it quite enjoyable being able to sit down with those who are "on the other side of the aisle" and discuss stuff in an open and friendly manner whether it was NS related or not.
