PAX 08: We cried all the way home edition
DJDuffy \| 10:28 PM on 09.03.2008	24 comments

I will warn you now, this blog contains sappy and heart wrenching content! You've been warned!

PAX is one of those things that can't be explained or described...you just have to experience it for yourself. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this was the best time I have ever had in my life! Let's see...gaming, sexy ladies, drinking, ass grabbing, concerts, more drinking, tonnes of sex?! Ya...best time evar! Honestly, next year I could just forgo buying a PAX ticket and just drink with you guys all weekend, because that's pretty much all we did!

Meeting all of you for the first time was amazing. It was like seeing an old friend that you hadn't seen in like 15 years; everything was very familiar but at the same time was so new. After the first day of meeting like 40 of you my head was spinning! It was just so much to take in. Honestly I was super nervous to meet people at first. but that all went away....oh, and the drinking helped that too.

Our home base was the Red Lion, we pretty much lived in that bar. All of you beautiful people just took the place over day and night! We would stay up till 3, 4, 5am just drinking, talking, lighting each other on fire...you know ;)

Oh yea...this was a special moment! Necros, you were crazy! This is my favourite picture ever!! I loved how the makeup was hurting you all day after we took it off...your poor nose!

CBM guys and gals...I <3 you all! Not surprisingly, you are all just as cool in person as you are online (and cute)! E-mailers may come and go, but you will always have my heart (I know...really sappy, yea yea!)

Neiro, thank gawd you made this amazing place called Dtoid a reality. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have met you and all of these fabulous people. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving us the time of our lives.

All the Dtoiders PAX: You freakin complete me!! And Liz says hi...she erm..completes me too ;)

Haha, I forgot you were in the room for a while when that picture was taken! (And the reason it hurt was because I was so drunk, I scrubbed my skin really, really hard when I took off the make-up, and there wasn't even any on my nose!)

It was amazing to hang out with you at PAX, we really need some big get-together sooner than a full year from now!

It was so great to meet you and Liz, Dorian! I had such a great time, and I appreciate that you two were part of the best sandwich ever! If I'm ever in Vancouver, I'll definitely give you guys a call or something.

Well, actually, scratch that. Screw international phone calls. But we'll definitely meet up before PAX 09! <333333

I already told you this, but you were one of the first dtoiders I played online with, it was great to finally meet you and I'm really glad you returned to pay the bill because I got the chance say goodbye to you <3.

Hope I see you again soon, I still owe you tequila shots.

I miss you girls so much! I might have to think about making the one day 8 hour trip to come and see you two. That would be so amazing.

Tell Liz hurry up and join Destructoid!

Love you girls! <3

about me
Who is the DJ? I'm not really a DJ at all to be honest. If you really want to know just ask me...its a long story. I'm a Canadian gamer who reads and writes about video games. I am just as hyped on the industry as I am on playing the games. What games do I like? I'll try everything and anything twice. Music is another awesome thing in my life, I've been a part of a lot of fun projects. I'm just learning guitar casually on my own time, but I played drums for about 8 years or so. Also I work as an compositor (visual effects) in the television and film industry. Visit my website! I ♥ lazers This really nice trading card that The Ghost made for me:
