LeakyCon Fun!

2009-06-03 · Hank, a guest · watch on YouTube · Personal life · personal update

A "Pop Up Video"-style montage of off-convention footage from the LeakyCon trip (per the description): a hunt for a Boston hot-dog stand that turns up only an empty industrial park, a Vietnamese sandwich place instead, a "soul-seeing" glasses bit, and drinks mixed with supplies from a blood mobile.

What is said

00:00:00 — Boston lunch trip: hunting a hot-dog stand in an industrial park, banter about quitting day jobs, Vietnamese sandwich shop

  • ★★ A guest says reaching the hot-dog stand by bus meant a long walk and a two-hour lunch break; the group reaches an industrial park where the vendor should be, but he is not there. (playful) — 00:00:00 · Boston
  • ★ In banter, one person says he quit his day job (no longer a chemical engineer) to be a "full-time wizard"; another says he was a biochemistry undergrad. (playful) — 00:00:00
  • ★ The group ends up at a Vietnamese sandwich place described as having one of the dirtiest-looking doors of any place you would actually eat. (playful) — 00:00:58

00:02:07 — Drinks mixed with supplies from a blood mobile; closing

  • ★ Someone says they got drink mixers from a blood mobile after giving blood, joking that they will get drunk for charity (passage partly garbled). (playful) — 00:02:07

Humor (significant)

  • The missing hot-dog vendor was supposed to be in a deserted industrial park. — 00:00:29 > «he's got this commitment to this industrial park where you can get. Wholesale Chinese kitchen supplies.»
  • Someone wearing glasses says he can see souls, except those of poles and concrete; asked about those souls: — 00:01:38 > «Do they seem fulfilled? No, they don't, actually.»
  • With the glasses on you can see more people than without them. — 00:01:38 > «So these are dead people glasses, right?»
  • Having given blood, they use blood-mobile supplies as drink mixers. — 00:02:07 > «it's for a good cause we're gonna get drunk for charity»
