I went to GenCon this past weekend. It was great fun, but we nerds certainly fit the "smelly and lacking social skills" stereotype.

I did some light cosplay. Friday I wore my homemade BSG jacket and undershirts (I couldn't fit into the pants). Saturday morning I wore a white shirt and red tie to cosplay as Cole from www.pvponline.com (my wife wore a black t-shirt to go as Jade from the same comic). We met the creator, who was overjoyed that we made the effort. Saturday night I wore a TOS Redshirt and my old thick rimmed glasses, not to be a Redshirt, but to cosplay as the drummer for Five Year Mission (www.fiveyearmission.net), which he appreciated.
