Funny things I took pics of during the con. Most of the signs are from the Common Room, which had a bulletin board.

Squiddiccino



We all have desired a nice steaming cup o' calamari once in our lives, right?

Blame julian_black for this one. It was her inspiration.

The squid has been named! Thanks to gmonkey42, it is now Lord Voldemollusk.

"And get a nice refreshing squiddicino with every pound of coffee purchased, now through Labor Day..."

bwahaha! Iced Squiddiccino! Why didn't I think of that? hilarious.

[elliek-21.livejournal.com]

Those were very funny. Each time I see more pics, I want so badly to have been there.

I have to say that it's some of the most fun I've ever had. Seriously. It was great!

Er...regarding that first image... I made this picture a few years ago:



This was when the superconductivity lab I worked in bought a restaurant-grade espresso machine, and started selling shots for a dollar (which was very popular with the graduate students, as you can imagine).

The circle with an x through it that surrounds the image is the symbol for a superconducting device called a SQUID (Superconducting QUantum Interference Device). Since the espresso machine was located in the same room as our SQUID, it seemed appropriate to name the caffeine pimping racket enterprise "Squidbucks".
