A wtf moment in Chicago

[pixelene]

Just saw Thing 2 from "Cat in the Hat" and two guys in tail coats and top hats roller skating through traffic on Clark Street....

Heh. I've had my own WTF Moment. The 18th St Bridge over the Union Station Lead in tracks on the south side of the loop (near chinatown) I saw 2 skinheads walking hand in hand, one with devil horns, the other one with a devil tail...and this was in JULY.

I want to move to Carrie-land. There are lots of anime cons there.

As I entered the newsroom Saturday night, bringing my Sunday-morning reload of day-old-bakery stuff for the Sunday morning crew, I was confronted in one of the news goons wearing a fright mask, lunatic black wig and an orange prisoner outfit.

Okay, understand the kind of place I work. The news producers were truly shocked at this. One of them apparently freaked and was prepared to call in the security guard/cop on him. I simply looked at them, especially the guy trying to act like a mute hulking menace, shook my head, muttered "Mundanes!" and deposited the baked goods on the assignment desk.

I just wish I could transport these people, for five minutes, into the lobby of the Hyatt during an evening of Dragon*Con. Either their heads would explode, or they would be shamed into never appearing in costume again.

No matter what you may have thought of Opie Ron Fenokee, I was more authentic than that.
