Can't say I ever thought of attending (well maybe Comic Con) but it looks like it's a lot of fun…dorky fun, mind you, but fun Ne mogu reći da mi je ikada mislio pohađanja (dobro možda Comic Con), ali izgleda kao da je puno zabavnije ... dorky zabave, imati što protiv, ali zabavno
Comic Con is a good place to start. Comic Con je dobro mjesto za početak. It's dorky but not as hardcore! It's dorky, ali ne kao i hardcore!
We were so tempting to attend Dragon Con in Atlanta this year but chicken out. Mi smo bili toliko primamljivo da prisustvuju Dragon Con u Atlanti ove godine, ali od piletine. But next year we already found a few friends to go with us. No, iduće godine smo već naći nekoliko prijatelja da ide s nama.
