From Groups.yahoo.com/group/anythingbuffy Buffy The Vampire SlayerTop 10 Signs You Are At a Lame Buffy/Angel ConventionBy Steven Sunday 4 January 2004, by Webmaster From the home office in the big hole in the ground that used to be Sunnydale CA: Top Ten Signs You Are at a Lame Buffy/Angel Convention: drum roll... 10. The celebrity guest list is padded out with cast members of "Touched by an Angel." 9. It is held at an airport hotel named "End o’ Runway Inn." 8. You pay a lot of extra cash for "Gold" tickets only to find out the only advantage that gives you is tickets printed in gold ink. 7. The five finalists in the demon costume contest look suspiciously like Sponge Bob Square Pants, Barney the Purple Dinosaur, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and Tinky Winky & La La from Teletubbies. 6. The top prize in the memorabilia auction is an 8x10 autographed picture of Buffy’s supervisor from "Doublemeat Palace." 5. You find out that the convention is sponsored by the Conner Fan Club. 4. The master of ceremonies keeps referring to the actress who played Buffy as "Sarah Michelle Swanson." 3. "The actor who plays Spike" is advertised as a guest on their website, only to find it is the actor who played "Spike" on "Happy Days." 2. You’re in the autograph line and you use your cell phone to call your friend who was too cheap to come to the convention to find out if they want an autograph, only to find out your friend is the person who is signing autographs. And the #1 sign you are at a lame Buffy/Angel convention: 1. Other convention goers graciously ask you to join them for "D&D" in the hotel restaurant. You accept only to find out too late that "D&D" is "Dine & Dash." 7 Forum messages |
