Did anyone else notice the candy in block #4?

I find subtle things like that hilarious for some reason. Razz

These are getting better and better. What Nina says to herself in panel 5 almost made me fall off my chair. Laughing

These keep getting funnier. Though panel five cuold have done without the "noob" comment. I know exaclty how Nina feels. Everytime I walk into a videogame room at a con it's always the hottest, smellist, most disgusting room at the con. Doesn't anybody use deodorant anymore? Poor Nina.

Next year Lydia go to Expo's game room at about 3-4pm in the afternoon on Saturday. Breath through your mouth and once in the room take a nice deep whif. See if you can make it to the door before passing out. Wink

And thus, my love-hate releationship with the game room is summed up in one comic.

That's not even necessary to understand how bad it smells. That's just being mean! Laughing

Though honestly, it varies from con to con. If the room is big enough it's not bad, but cons seem to like to stuff the video game room into the tiniest place they can find.

Yep- that was one of my first thoughts, actually. "Look, more candy!" Laughing

(although, if I had a 250,000 yen designer-creature, the last I'd do with it is leave it alone in a hallway. Confused )
