Ahh the many joys of weekend among the CON-Nation. Back in the 80s there seemed to be a fascination with barbarian queen costumes that involved plastic wrap. For some people, there was no amount of plastic wrap that could hold back the ... ewwwwwww ... factor.

If the hotels offered a special set of CON rooms for the weekend, I always made sure to request one many floors away. As I was primarily a gamer it never failed that someone wanted to move a game up to the hotel room at 0100 and I could always says "Nope, my room is in the quiet area of the hotel."

It must feel really good to spend a weekend dressed oddly, behaving oddly, and believing the whole world forgives your inconsiderate behavior because ... you know ... you're at a fantasy convention.
