GLOMP: A very violent hug that may or may not send you on the floor or over chairs.

is that a good definition?

Last year I went to my first con, the first day was torture. stressed Even before I got out of the car I saw Chii ears in the window, $10, so I ran inside and got them, BUT i didnt discover the dealers room until after i signed in. And it was torture walking around with only $10 after spending half of it on ears. And there was like NO food, the food and drinks sold out fast. So I spent most of the first day walking around finding friends from school and getting glomped for looking like chii xd

a. Signs – Many people like to make and hold signs, many of these beg for money, others just ask for hugs/glomps, etc. Making one or not is up to you, but personally, I have never felt the need. My convention experiences have been plenty of fun without random sweaty people attaching themselves to me.



i heartily agree. good job on the list!

I know how it feels to go to a convention and have no money. Its like being in a desert with no water. I am giong to my next conv. as godzilla and chassing asian people around . Wrong prob fun yes!

I'm guessing someone may have said this before, but most of the time, the dances are NOT suitable for people under the age of eighteen, and can be very uncomfortable places.

I have turned down many offers to go into the dances. They personally scare me.
