Photos: The rest of the Neko-Con pictures

I don’t remember who took this picture.  Given the angle it was taken, I’m guessing it was the bartender from heaven, Clayton, or some really unfortunate soul who was forced into photo duty by a bunch of drunks.

That being said, if you haven’t already checked, all the Neko-Con photos are already up at this point.  Granted, I’ve posted a good bit of them as daily stories, but pretty much for the important pictures, like the ones of people I actually give a shit about, they’re all there. Along with various pictures of hot jailbait, a Putty patroller and Coach playing Dance Central, among other random shots.

Neko-Con Stories: Ruining the toy camera look

My camera that I’m still trying to cope with over the fickle settings, happens to have a Toy Camera Effect mode. In other words, a setting that pre-applies darkened corners as well as kind of dims down the colors, that toy cameras like Holgas do. Since a lot of my pictures seem to have oversaturated colors until I can figure it out better, I decided to give the Toy Camera mode a whirl, as I’m sure anyone who peruses through my Neko-con photos might notice a chunk of photos that have this setting applied.

Photos: Halloween Parties

Ahh, Halloween.  The time of year where everyone can dress like complete weirdos, and it be completely acceptable.  This year saw two costume parties, where my camera made cameos at, one being a pleasant house party courtesy of Bunny and Sean, and the other being the Scoutmob-sponsored party at the Goat Farm.

Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures of myself dressed as WCW United States champion La Parka at Bunny and Sean’s, but there are plenty of pictures of myself having the big gay adventures of Fisto at the Goat Farm.

Much appreciation to Bunny and Sean’s hospitality and the pleasant time at their abode.  Scoutmob can suck a fat one for having a relatively poorly planned event, and not even the included-in-the-cost-of-admission beer and wine (wine, seriously?) could change the fact that it was like 48 degrees that night, and I’m in a costume bare-armed and legged.  Sorta related, I have to admit, it was kind of interesting being objectified for once in my life as the furry brief-wearing Masters of the Universe character, receiving my share of heckled cat-calls from drunk chicks.  The Goat Farm party was okay once I got loaded, but damn if it was far from perfect, and very volatile for genuine sucking.

Photos: Run For Your Lives! Starring Justin Timberlake*

*not really Justin Timberlake

I wish I could have taken my camera along with me to take pictures during the whole ordeal, but it’s good that I didn’t. Between the mud, water, and the constant risk of biting it, it probably wouldn’t have made it. Not that there would have really been any time to take any pictures what with the constant sprinting and escaping from the zombies there was the whole time.

In the photos, you’ll see some photographs of the relentless traffic jams to get to just the parking lot, the parking lot itself, where no less than 25 cars got stuck right in front of my eyes, the before, and the bloody aftermath, and cleanup process. Good times, but man, I gotta reiterate how much work lies ahead for this activity’s future endeavors.

Photos: Scarecrows in the Botanical Gardens

Jen recently made a scarecrow for the Atlanta Botanical Gardens’ fall something-or-other whatever festival/occasion. With a twitter theme, Madame de Tweet was easily one of the better scarecrows at the garden.  Some of them weren’t even scarecrows, as much as it looked like some people were phoning in their designs, but hey, not everyone can be somewhat artistic either.

Photos: Ruis and Jen’s Wedding

Several years of cranberry juice threats and heartfelt chats come to an end on October 2nd of 2011, when my boy Ruis finally nails his shit down, and gets married.  And what we have here is some photographic evidence of Ruis and Jen’s wedding, in which I had the dubious honor of being one of Ruis’s groomsmen.

A joyous occasion that felt like it went by entirely too fast, but full of happiness and a good memory of a special day.  As is the case with many weddings, it’s always a treat to see old familiar faces looking all dapper and polished, while we joke about the same nerdy crap and bring the level of class down one slow tier at a time.

God damn, I have to get me more of that Woodchuck seasonal fall cider.

Photos: Nationals Park baseball trip

With the season winding down, I decided to go up to Virginia and catch some bonus Braves baseball while spending time with my friends.  Even though I knew that the Braves always play like shit up in Nationals Park, I would rather set superstition aside for good company and live baseball.  Despite the fact that the Braves managed to pull out the victory in the Friday game, they came back down to earth on Saturday and Sunday, by promptly getting pwned, as is customary in D.C., bringing my record to seeing the Braves at Nationals Park to an awesome 1-5.
