BUCK 2014 meme thingy! =:P
11 years ago
General
Heh, it looks as though I haven't posted anything here since last year's BUCK! Oh well, here's the classic meme again:
Where are you staying?
Bolton Central River Street Travelodge.
What day are you getting there?
To the hotel? Between 4pm and 5pm on Friday afternoon. Depending on timing, I may stop off in central Manchester for an hour or two earlier in the afternoon and go to the first part of the Fluttershy Club meet in the central library.
Who will you be with?
A large rucksack and a small Fluttershy.
Do you do free art or trades?
I don't do art, free or not! I guess I could write you a silly little poem in exchange for a sketch or something.
Do you do commissions/badges?
Nah, I don't have the skill. The only thing I'm good at is writing and no-one wants writing commissions.
Do you have prints/CDs?
This is starting to get repetitive.
What suit(s) will you have?
Suits? I'll be wearing pony T-shirts, same as last year. Saturday's is likely to be Fluttershy-themed; what I wear on the Sunday depends on whether I buy a shirt at the con!
Can I dance with you?
No, because I can't dance. Seriously, don't even think it. You'll bear the scars for the rest of your life.
You're talking to someone, and I would like to say hi, but don't know how, what can I do?
Wait until a gap in the conversation and, well, say hi.
What is your gender?
Male.
How old are you?
Er... let's say over 30 and leave it at that. =:P
How tall are you?
5 foot 11.
Are you mated?
I told you last year, the proper phrase is "very special somepony".
Can I touch you?
Why, don't you believe I'm real? I don't either, sometimes. But I guess, within reason.
Can I talk to you?
Absolutely! I'd be delighted if people talked to me, since I often have trouble starting conversations. If I manage to get a Fluttershy Club badge, just check I have the green "Hi!" side showing and you're good to go. =:)
Can I hug you?
Probably yes, though please ask me first. I don't really enjoy surprise hugs.
Can I take your photo?
Again, probably yes, though as I won't be cosplaying I'm not sure why you'd want to.
Can I buy you lots of drinks?
Sure! Make sure they're sugar-free, though, as I'm diabetic. (Tea and coffee are fine, too.) Buy me a muffin if you really want to get on my good side.
Do you drink alcohol/smoke?
I've never smoked and hate it. I do drink alcohol, but I may well stay teetotal throughout the con this time.
Can I give you lots of money?
As long as you're not trying to frame me for a bank robbery, I guess so.
Can I hug or snuggle with you?
You don't have a very long memory, do you? Five questions up, matey. =:P
Can we hang out?
Depends how high the window is. Seriously, if you're a nice person, I don't see why not. I don't tend to get on that well with people on the ultra-cynical, NSFW side of the fandom though.
Are you nice?
Best pony: Fluttershy. So basically, yes unless I'm really provoked (in which case, stand well back). If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you.
Where will you be most of the time during the con?
I don't know. This year's con schedule looks vaguer than 2013's, but I absolutely definitely want to be at G. M. Berrow's panel. I'll also be at the first few hours of the SSC on Friday night, and would welcome anyone else who's expecting to feel totally out of place there!
Other cons you may go to?
I hope to go to UK Ponycon in Leicester in mid-October, so by all means say hi there, too. =:)
