Someone.
Anyone.
Convince me to go to Anime-Expo this year.
Convince me to spend oodles of money just to show up. On memberships, on parking, on overpriced icky hotel food. On gas to get there.
Before I ever hit the door at a dealer's room where I have everything already. And can get anything I haven't gotten down the street after the con. Whenever I want.
Tell me why I should decide within the first few minutes of the con which line to stand in for which event out of the whole weekend I have a chance of seeing. For hours. Tell me why I have to see all my AMVs on Thursday night (thanks Sean!) at dinner. No chance of seeing the show myself - uh, remember that ticket thing again? No, I don't have a room - I have a whole house, thank you. But I don't comp myself tickets to anything because I fucking live here.
Tell me why I should go.
Please.
Shit, I'd accept an invitation to a party at this point as justification.
