The last con I attended was Marcon and I felt SO weirded out by some of the people there. I don't fit in, I really don't. So, that makes number 5,676 in my list of places I don't belong anymore. The older you get, or so it seems to me so far, the fewer places you like to be...maybe that's why old people are continually cranky or on happy pills? I dunno, but either way, I'm consistently alienated from those I once thought part of "my tribe."
Thank you for this post, it really made me think more about this.
Marcon = Snarkon
