    "Wil Wheaton was a hero" Really? Maybe nowadays, but at the time, I couldn't turn around without someone absolutely *hating* his character's presence in TNG, and actually praising an episode the day after, for its "Lack of Wesley".

    "His parents got him a computer when he was a kid that had 8K of RAM."

    I prefer kids with more RAM, but I guess you can always upgrade them.

    OK, now I'm pissed (at myself). His keynote was the prime reason I wanted to go to PAX. Now here I am, stuck at my desk a mere 10 miles away from the Seattle Convention Center, because I procrastinated at getting my damn ticket.

    I think I cried a little inside.

    The message here: Don't listen to your parents. For they are wrong.

    I'm asking for something you know I want, but I realize that you guys don't have it. And don't worry, I don't hate you, but that still doesn't change the fact that I want a video.

    @TookiGuy: Aww, and a quick Google search tells me that I can't be the one to give it to you. Sorry!
    Although there was a liveblog on G4TV's website, so you could read that and imagine that you're watching the video?

    @Michael Dukakis for Senate!: That actually sounds like a far less horrifying world. Think of a world without Rule 34... or /b/. Practically utopian.

    @Michael Dukakis for Senate!: Yes, but even at age 15 I had my ways. Actually, my mom's fault. This was back when cable wasn't digital and still needed a box. Well, she paid some guy that modded the box to get free pay per view channels. It just happened that the pay per view channels included porn. Ah good ole' 90's porn.

    I'm all for following your hopes and dreams, or pursuing a profession that you truly enjoy, but I know several people who wish their parents told them, "Honey, that art degree isn't going to get you a good job. At all." You would assume they KNEW that when they started, but I know a couple who didn't... nice girls, but yeesh.
