Right now AnimeCon.org/Chrono LC CEO Ryan Kopf (who runs Anime Midwest, Animinneapolis, Meta Con, Con Alt Delete, Yoi Con, and several other events) is suing me in the state of Illinois over articles I wrote about him on my geek news site Nerd & Tie. Please consider contributing to my legal fund so I can continue to fight this case. Read Trae's Blog | Follow Trae on Twitter
Note: While it’s true that many things are based on actual events, the characters contained within this strip are not meant to be direct analogs for actual people. They are not based off of people living, dead, or undead and any resemblance is coincidental. Nor are they based off of Ferrets.
Because that would be weird.
Don’t worry Ruth, the con can rebound from this.
A chandelier whose chains can be knocked out of their anchors by a thrown T-shirt is structurally unsafe and poorly built or maintained. The hotel is at fault for having a dangerous piece of equipment in a public area, and BorkCon could sue them for nearly killing some of their committee members.
Assuming they have the funds to hire a lawyer and win the suit. Fairly sure the hotel has better lawyers who can argue the anchors are perfectly safe when you don’t repeatedly throw T-shirts at them.
