Comic Con 2006

Since I live in San Diego, CA I have the pleasure of being able to easily attend Comic Con. Comic Con is a convention where they have comic books, action figures, video games, people dressed up in costumes, movies, TV shows, etc...

I got two free passes from my buddy George Dixon from work. I brought Emily and once Emily and I got inside I called George and he met up with us. Immediately after walking probably 20-30 feet we saw someone that looks weird/sexy/crazy and thus began snapping photo heaven. I had so much fun posing for photos with sexy girls, goth girls, fat girls, Captain Jack Sparo, Playboy Models, Batman, Superman, Star Wars, Star Trek, Street Fighter...I could go on and on.

The people that dress up get nothing for dressing up except the satisfaction and attention they seek so much in regular life. Well the "sexy girls" get paid but the self made costumed freaks don't.

Probably 97% of the people that I took photos with were really cool about getting their picture taken. The only 2 people I had tiny issues were sexy girls. One was like yeah but make it quick I have somewhere to go and another girl was just like acting real distant when all I did was grope her :P . Nosa she just was kinda bitchy acting.

I would definitely go again next year. I had alot of fun. I wish I had some money so I could buy some of the crazy/interesting things I saw.

So you have until Sunday July 23, 2006 before it closes!!
