Has more than the car does!

Fair enough; maybe it came from someplace else, too. Didn’t care, was just a weird thing they’d say.

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 14h

I never had a big enough presence for it to matter.

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 14h

Not sure if they watched it either; never did in the years we lived together.

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 14h

Deleted mine a year ago; why is anyone still there?

My ex used to say this all the time re. going to bed, and I never understood why they said “bread”.

I haven’t watched the show since probably 1991.

what's the stupidest/randomest Simpsons quote that lives in your head rent free? Mine is the urge to say "you said go to bread" every time I am about to head to bed.

This is just an excuse to get people talking about it.

Don’t.

“Line Con is part of the experience, though!”

Not for me, it isn’t!

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 15h

Not knocking them, it’s cool to see the fandom has grown so large! That aspect just isn’t for me anymore; I can’t justify pre-registering and then still standing in line for hours to pick up badge 😂

Suffice to say, I basically don’t attend any cons anymore, haha

Again, I didn’t know what attendance had reached. Used to live in the Bay and attended most years from its origin, it was usually around 2500-3000 people, which is about the max I can tolerate these days.

Seems like a missed opportunity when Cats came out

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 16h

Who?

Matt | Farallon @ottercynic.bsky.social · 16h

Small relative to AC, MFF etc I guess I meant, but haven’t been in a few years.

How lucrative or profitable is FC vs other events? I know it’s still smaller.

Come here and sit ❤️

They’re gonna ignore it regardless

When I lived in CA, someone had their rear windshield decorated with a Hindu motif of swastikas. I know it has a very different and much older meaning in that culture, but maybe don’t display that either; many people don’t know its origin

You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.
