w00tstock! Or: Mine eyes have seen Neil Gaiman AKA the night we learned ASL for 'elephant spunk'
Yea, though I went to W00tstock and it was good.
And lo, though Neil's plane was delayed due to lack of paperwork such that Adam Savage was forced to incoherently introduce the show, Neil arrived with a giant print out of Wil Wheaton, and it was good.
And yea, so it was that Paul and Storm realized that there were a pair of ASL interpreters on duty and pronounced that, "This is so not a toy we're going to play with until it's breaks," and this was to prove a prophecy filled with much truth.
And lo, Bill Amend did appear onstage and make the unlikeliest of connections: Marmaduke and 2 girls 1 cup. And there was much rejoicing.
And then did Neil Himself appear on stage and read two stories, including one which included the words 'elephant spunk' and thus was a new meme born.
And then there was much additional silliness including a song about having Stephen Fry's baby and the Red vs. Blue people and the exceptionally funny man responsible for banning people from X-Box Live, and all of it was good.
And lo, Adam Savage took the stage and was much better spoken, and we did learn that if Jamie Hyneman would fuck his couch if it looked like Angelina Jolie and then Adam did realize that he'd just witnessed the ASL sign interpreters make the sign for 'cocksucker' and there was much rejoicing.
And in the end all four hosts did take the stage and I do not think that the words 'elephant spunk' have been said so many times in rapid succession such that the ASL interpreters turned beet red with laughter, and it was all very silly, and if I could marry Neil's voice, I would.
And there was much rejoicing.

And yeah, Neil... I've been in love with him for years, and he's adorable in person (according to his Twitter-feed, apparently he was rocking the guy-liner last night). The other three kept accusing him of being a gentleman, completely ignoring the fact that he's the one who brought up 'elephant spunk' in the first place.

youtube.com/user/Rhianna430 has w00tstock 2.9 which Neil went to and if you're interested youtube.com/user/iakvir has 2.8 with acoustic geeky singer/songwriter Marian Call.
Enjoy!!!
