because it's hot outside, okay

Watching the dashcon tag on tumblr and the FFA threads is now a lifestyle choice. And now ONTD has picked it up.

In case anyone wants to catch up (vaguely in chronological order of posting):
First FFA Thread on Dashcon
Second FFA Thread on Dashcon

Dashcon Tag on Tumblr

Personal favorite quote from FFA:

From browsing the tag, the people at Dashcon have entered into this peculiar headspace wherein one more normally finds hostages and cult victims: the backlash has been so severe that anyone who even had a good moment and lacks certain critical self-check features is now in "extreme Con defense mode."

Starts with $17,000 and goes down from there. Also, a ball wading pool and bouncy castle.

ETA: From anonymous commenter: Dashcon owner about Dashcon, posted in January - I can't tell if anonymous is defense or prosecution here, but it's an interesting link.

You're not wrong. The picture of the ball pit even LOOKS like it belongs the back page of a baby indie band's album. Did you read the (possibly not a rumor) post on tumblr warning people not to go into the ball pit, because someone had allegedly peed in it?

*shudders* It had to happen, but the question is, before or after it deflated?

Dashcon: The Ballpit Deflated could be the best and most truthful tagline ever.

Before, I think. Ahaha oh no.
