Oh oh oh, I'm so tempted to start a one-off comm for those of us not going to Dragon*Con, so we can do fun stuff whilst everyone else is off enjoying themselves. Not a moderated comm, just a free-for-all space to commiserate.

And I so want to call it non_con. 

Heeheehee. How banned would that get me? (And I haven't checked to see if that's a comm already, because I'm at work and quite frankly I'm afraid what will appear.)

Anyone think they might be interested in such a gathering?

I'm very happy to grumble with you!

Lucky bastards getting to go off and see cool people while we have to sit at home and go to work/uni...*sulks*

Non-con might be pushing it though....they'll bahleet your bottom1!

non_con would totally be pushing it, I suspect - although I'm tempted to try, just so I can argue the legitimacy of it. Heh.

Hmm. dragon_non_con... No, that's even kinkier...

Am so for it! Totally sounds like a fab idea, those of us that find pictures/accounts of the con on the web can post links and stuff so other folks can join us in our misery, LOL. Why oh why does it have to be on Labor Day Weekend? *hates retail job*

Yes, we can wallow in the misery of not being there! Heheh. Okay, it definitely needs to be done, I think. I just have to think of a name that won't get me banned for life by lj...

:) I promise to think of you at least a little while we're having fun and post pictures and reports in the aftermath and get people to sign a postcard for you!


Your community idea sounds like an awesome consolation prize though. (just don't get yourself permanently banned - I'd miss you1)

Hee. Honestly, I wouldn't blame you in the slightest if you spent all your time enjoying yourself and didn't think once about me. :D

I will try not to get myself banned in the meanwhile...

*insert evil smug maniacal laugh*

Actually, I think there's an LJ wide one for you sad suckers. Though I can't find it at the moment.

But ta for the tip, I'll have to look for that. ;)

See, now all I can imagine is a bunch of people deliberately starting The Great LJ Riots: round 800 with a single comm while so many fandom people were away from their computers. Which would be wrong.

I love your icon.

And it'd be amusing in a way, but oh, I can't really be bothered with fandom vs. lj kerfuffles any more.

I've reached the point with LJ kerfluffles where I can only laugh at all sides or snap and completely loose my mind.

Joking aside (for now) though, if something does go on for all the people stuck at home that weekend, I'm so there.

(That icon is why I should clearly not be allowed excessive access to photoshop. It's free to all and sundry if you ever have need of Jack and Teal'c macroing at each other ;D)

No, you should have lots of access to Photoshop, and make more icons for to amuse and delight. Yes. *nods firmly*

If ever a real lj emergency happens, I'll totally ignore it. They've cried wolf once too often. They'll be knocking on my door in the middle of the night, with burning torches, and I'll be going, "Yeah, sure - the fanpocalypse, whatEVER."

You could call it non_dcon, but then people searching for alternatives to rat poison may join.

Somehow, that was funnier in my head. BTW, I'll be in. :-)

It'd've been funnier if I didn't have to go look Dcon up. Honestly, this cultural divide thing just stomps all over jokes, doesn't it? ;)

Hmm. I'm going to hunt down the lj-wide one that vickyocean mentioned, and see if that looks good - but if not, it might be nice to have a Stargate-centric one. Just because we can.

That had to be a genuine laugh from AT. She looked like she was trying not to snort in an unladylike fashion. :D

If only that name were possible. (Though I like dragon_non_con, too. Hee!)

I wish you could beeee theeeeere! I'm sad about many people who are not going, but especially you. :-(

Aw, bless you! I'll go to one, someday. I shall just have to schedule a holiday (ha!) that coincides with it, some year.

Dragon_non_con I like, but it's especially kinky. Perhaps... non_dragon_con. Or something not involving the words 'non' and 'con' together.

That might be the best idea...maybe something nice and long and obscure? Like: thisisnt_dragon_con. Heh. I'm bad at names.

no_con_do

There's your name. Bwahahahahaha!

It's perfect. And we can frequent it when all the rest of you lucky folks go to things like Shore Leave, et.al.
