Last night was Lobstercon, which is always fun. Took Modok with me.

I managed to get through the night without gorging myself, which meant that I did not end the evening squatting in the men's room pleading for a merciful death.

Which is good, since we headed out for Karaoke afterwards. It was a birthday event for Theresa, and quite enjoyable. The venue was loud, and the KJ was, well, a towering douchebag.

It was there that I stumbled, once again, into Pierre Savoie. He did Informer by Snow.

We didn't get a moment to speak, so I wasn't able to ask if he still hates women, homsexuals, christians, immigrants. I consider that a loss on my part.

I did get on stage to do a song, although by the time we got to our part of the rotation we were planning to leave and had started to dress the part. Cindy got onstage in her "karaoke sweater".

I did Chocolate Salty Balls, and got to enjoy a lovely shot of a black guy's swelled scrotum. Classy.

Edit: For further entertainment, you can look a Pierre's Facebook group about immigration and environmentalism.

Some people were (okay, [livejournal.com profile] james_nicoll was) curious about what had happened to Pierre Savoie, revered Usenet lunatic and the strychnine of many an RPG mailing list.

Well, rumours of his death aside, Pierre is alive and well. He seems to have eschewed the gaming subculture entirely, in favour of electronic music and writing nutty letters to the editor to Eye Magazine on his pet topic, that being the superiority of the secular white man. Here’s one from last October.

HOLY WAR CONTINUES
Theresa Smyth, in responding to another letter, claimed that "the West's Christian inheritance" led to freedoms (Letters, Oct. 12). I once debunked claims of Christianity leading to progress in a most public way on Citytv's Speaker's Corner -- and I won the weekly prize! I pointed out that in the Middle Ages with European society in firm religious control, there was no progress to be seen. How is that consistent with the claim religion promotes freedoms? It was secularism, arising while Catholics and Protestants were busy weakening each other and leaving everyone sick of religion, that led to massive social progress in the Age of Enlightenment. PIERRE SAVOIE


He won a prize on Speaker’s Corner. Awesome. I think I won a prize on SC once.

I dunno if that's really Paris, but this Phone Sex for Geeks sketch is funny, if rather disturbingly well researched.

Of course, Pierre Savoie will probably view it as an attack on D&D.
