San Diego Comic Con 2012

A little less ridiculous than the Derpy Hooves. If anybody going can snag me one of the Yo Gabba Gabba! button sets for my daughter I'll pay them+shipping.

Appreciate it!

Some 53 year-old Twilight fan proved that Darwinism is alive and well by running into busy traffic against the light in front of the convention center to get to some Twilight panel and got killed by a car.

Ha ha ha, a person died. Let's judge her for what brought her joy.

I'm judging her by what brought her death.

[Chux]

Which is fair, I think.

Did I laugh? I'm calling her stupid for needlessly killing herself over a film series aimed at tween retards and likely causing the poor woman that hit her a lifetime of grief, but I'm not making fun of her.

You're leaving out several details in favor of one. Of course, it's hard to even find this story without the "Twilight" part. If it was "Kawaii Mzo-chan got run over because he wanted to meet Bappibappi-san of the Sammy Fighting franchise" you'd include "Because some fuckass at Comic Con changed the line that he'd been camped out in for days and he was trying to get his place back, and now i'm going to make sure all of the people involved will spend the rest of their days in hell."

[Mzo]

Oh shit, someone get me a Derpy Hooves sonnnnn!

[Finch]

Bronies.

[Chux]

Oh shit, someone get me a Derpy Hooves sonnnnn!

The three of us who have asked will get nothing. I attempted this before and it fell on deaf ears. Even the people on twitter ignore it and I have like 6 people I know there.

She tried to get her place back on line by running blindly into traffic?

I'm judging her by what brought her death.

That said, my GF just bought one of this year's SDCC-exclusive Funko POP Loki figures from an online dealer. It's cute.

If someone can get Mark Z Danielewski to sign a copy of House of Leaves I'll pay you handsomely for it.
