Vegas, it’s like a less subtle Sodom
I was in Vegas for Consumer Electronics Show this week. Obviously this is very exciting considering my overarching gadget fetish. It was fun except for the day I spent with food poisoning (special thanks to the IGN crew for what I assume was discount fish in the cocktail party appetizers). There were a few of highlights to the trip.
The porno convention was in town!- It’s an odd thing to be walking through the casino and have a porn star go walking by in an outfit that can only be described as a creative use of dental floss and postage stamps. There were a lot of them running around. It got to the point where I was basically afraid to touch anything (its almost worse to touch it if you do know where it’s been).
Can I pay with PayPal?- I’m not sure if this means that their brand is incredibly strong or if it’s tanking.
Even to dorky for me- Star Trek fans are an odd breed. Lacking even the respect of other sci-fi dorks, they wander aimlessly from convention to convention desperately hoping Shatner can fill some sort of hole in their life. Now in between conventions, they can gamble away the hard earned dollars they would normally spend of models and phasers. I give you, Star Trek slots. Well done, gambling industry.
Journalists need a sense of irony, not depth perception- I really really like this poster. Norm!
