Any helpful tips for first time Con attendee? (Asking for a friend)

[guest]

I have a friend in Michigan who's thinking about attending his first Con this month.

Any tips I can pass along to my friend?

(P.S.- Serious answers only, you guys. My friend wouldn't think of causing any disruptions or chaos at ConFusionMI!)

Has your friend considered becoming a suicide bomber?

Watch out for that Paul Weimer creep

Per my fans suggestion, use an alias or end up on a list.

1. Pay with CASH (anyone can do it)
2. Mask up, maybe even 2 masks for safety reasons. Atalkers may be around
3. Take plenty of photos!
4. Don’t forget your gender sticker
5. Don’t ask anyone if they belong in the womens restroom. It’s none of your business!
6. Bring your business cards so you can promote your brand

I would slide business cards under every door in the hotel. Real old-school canvassing.

-Most of the women weigh 300 lbs or more. Be sure you’re first in line for the buffet
-Need some quiet time? Consider going to a Patrick S Tomlinson book signing. No people there.
-Whatever you do, don’t reach into Paul Weimer’s pocket for a “surprise”.

Good luck getting in without them

Also, if you're thinking of dying your hair blue, do it before because all the stores in the area will be cleared out.

Here's fat's con schedule:



You should ask him about his credentials writing books series. His last 3 books were each intended to be a new series but flopped.

If you feel like someone is using the wrong bathroom:

- Stare at them
- Challenge them
- Insult them
- Purposely make them feel uncomfortable.

Bring your own Mountain Dew because the local stores will be sold out.

This isn’t a joke, it really happened.

Fawk, I’m taking my little guy skiing that weekend or I would genuinely consider attending and surreptitiously recording his presentations. Imagine how full of lies and pretensions they are!

No problem, just abandon him

When is Pat doing his how best to completely abandon your firstborn panel?

 

[Harry Powell]

How can we get recordings of his presentations? Is there a “virtual attendance” option we can stream them? I’m sure it’s him unbearably bloviating but probably some good snippets we could grab of him lying his ass off, pretending to be an expert.

Whatever you do, dress warm! Trust me, it’s cold in MI this time of year. Layering up always helps. A hat, maybe even a balaclava (under your mask of course), big coat, warm gloves, etc. It’s not hard to stay safe and stay warm! Be sure to record (only what you’re allowed to) things for memories as well!

Pat makes easy mistakes talking about sports on twitter and he is going to tell people how to write about sports? Blind leading the blind. Pat cant even play well with people let alone know what its like to be part of a team. Its all going to be corny shit he has seen in movies and espn docs.
