I had a blast!

Really, I am just a really, really shy girl, with the Aspergers and everything. And I know most people here say they didn't see it, but the first day, I thought it was a blessing that I got to go out with Cyrus and his girlfriend with only a few other spillios. The whole time I was, 'this is so cool, this is so cool. I'm hanging out with Cyrus, talking about movies and shit! Nothing will top this!'

I had signed up for the talent show last minute, and I thought for sure, I was just going to be the opening act. Nothing more. I swear, I thought I was just going to get kudos and that would be it. I did not think I would win. And meeting an actual actor and him telling me I had talent was so cool!

I feel the most comfortable actually on stage, when I have rehearse something, like an actor, but one on one, without a script, I get nervous by all the attention. That's how I got diagnosis in the first place with mild Autism and later with Aspergers. I just like being alone, but it's hard to break that mold, so spill dot con was kind of my Aspergers convention.

I'm still blushing by all the attention. It was so cool to meet people who generally like what I like and now to actually talk to them online and not just be 'facebook' friends, but spillio friends. I don't have facebook.

I loved it! :3

@Cyrus I'm not going to pretend it's all amazing but it has its moments and no one is going to convince me Lea Michele doesn't have an incredible voice. I know it's an easy target. Just try to back off a little for the .0000000001% of us that are both spill fans and Glee fans? (I acknowledge that maybe I need a few more orders of magnitude in zeros.)

I'm sorry, cat. It's an autonomic response.

I love you all, but Cyrus, stop hating on Glee.

Amazing! I loved every minute of the show. I was a little put off by the 30 minutes that Troy went on and on but still a great episode! Troy with the weather was great, though. :-) Also Kat, have you really thought about this prom thing in depth? So many Sailor Moon cosplayers, roflol.

Randy, when your cancer goes into remission I would simply keep up the story and have your employees wear shirts: My boss's name is Randy. He has cancer. Buy these omnibuses of Preacher.

Great opening segment! Probably the best Leon/Cyrus opening segment yet. It was a very thoughtful and intellectual talk that you guys had about the new age of media. I came to Spill for the laughs, but it's these kind of discussions that kept me here.

Hugh Laurie did a pretty damn good blues album, & Eric Idle could be called an actor or a musician (although neither might really be true)

I like the part when Leon loses his shit on Spill Dot Prom.

The only thing that bothers me about e-books is that you don't own the book, you only own a license to read the book and it can be taken away at any time. Other than that they are much more practical.

Bring on the SDCC good times!

For those of you wondering if you should go even if you aren't superactive on the site, the answer is yes. I went this year despite my posts totalling in the double figures if I stretch it and I still had an awesome time. Met good people, have some fun/weird stories, and go to go somewhere new.

If you can afford it, come on down. Hell, even if you can't, eat ramen for a month. :)

So glad I got to talk to Brian about what he and the site means to me (hopefully most of us). I almost cried, he got a little verklempt.

Yes, I was Ang Lee's Hulk (I honestly take that as a compliment). Yes, that's Laura. No, I didn't hit on her (I could go on a rant, but won't). And YES if you weren't there, you better damn well be next year!
