Description To be fair, I've never met a truly creepy fanboy at a Transformers convention. Sometimes I see them on message boards ( but they don't see me. And then I use them for comic fodder. ) The worst I ever get is, "Not a lot of girls are into Transformers." ( The answer is, there's plenty of us. Maybe we're avoiding you. )

Don't be a creep at the Insecticomics main page.

Sadly, lots of bronies are like Shadow there. The main difference apart from the show they follow is that they're reverse-GEEWUNNERS - they arbitrarily auto-bash everything that isn't Friendship is Magic.

Lol, this comic is informative and hilarious! Thankfully I didn't come across any weird boys at Supercon...but it does remind me of one time at the beach when this kid sorta hovered around me..>>...

Haha, Most of the people I know who are into TF are actually girls. >> I did, however, meet a lot of creepy people at an anime convention. x_x guys AND girls. I'm probably not going to another one of those.

Nice comic. I like the cosplay girl here. The guy on the right just don't have the proper skills to get girls' attention.

Thank you for this example of what to do and what not to do. I'll be sure to remember this when I eventually go to BotCon.

I'd say,
"There are very few girls who like TFs, but don't write slashfics. I for one hate it, but somehow they can get addictive."

I wonder if anyone's tried to dress up as sixshot at TFCon/BotCon...

Ooh, sweet. I'm starting a flame war.

There are very few girls who like TFs - untrue. There are a lot of us. Just because we are outnumbered by the guys does not make us 'very few'.
That was half the sentence. I know that at least 45% of the millions of +17 fans are girls.

but don't write slashfics - Way to stereotype! Of course! Slashing is all every fangirl does ever! We can't be interested in any other aspect of the fandom! It's all about teh buttsecks!
Hey, I'm a fangirl, but I for one stick with the official pairings. But I admit I do hunt for those little subtexty sparks between some characters.
And it's not about teh buttsecks. It's about the fingers, but you probably don't get what I'm saying.

I for one hate it, - I'm not like other girls! I'm special! I'm just like you - I hate all that icky, icky ghey. Love me!
*Sarcasm sensor blows up* Funny, funny.

but somehow they can get addictive - Okay, so I am a total stereotype, but it's not my fault for reasons that I will think of eventually.
I got one for ya.
"My dog ate it."

Try, "More than you think," or perhaps, "Boy, do you hang out at the wrong message boards," or, "So what?"
Meh. I like being straightforward. Sometimes people don't understand me, so I explain slowly. But if I talked to you, you wouldn't understand. I speak french, but I'm pretty damn good at writing in english. Forgive my accent.

Not only is this handy for boys, it's also good for girls. Everybody could use a little etiquette education before going to their first con. And, considering I've never been . . . *goes into the pity corner and weeps copiously* this was an excellent Primer (pun intended XD) for how to start up conversations with fellow fans at a con! Thank you, Wayward! I giveth thee cookies as a token of mine gratitude, you non-feminazi, you!

Fourtunatly I've only seen pieces of fan-boys that annoying, like a "rejected? no- I'll keep asking until she accepts or docks me" fan-boy, but I have'nt met a REAL babler of slag... yet anyway; although I have gotten a few "I didn't know girls LIKED Transformers" ones too...
Nice point about some of them though!

That would be 'no'. For one thing, I'm a brunette. For another, I have sworn to never appear in the comic as an action figure avatar.

Well, technically you already did way back when, as the Terrible Sculpty Bee Transformer version of you. But not since. And it was just a cameo where you got rejected by the Insecticons and berated for an out of date episode guide anyway.

Hah hah, "Shadowmus Prime." Sadly, I've run into Mary Sue characters like that on dA.

Uh, I don't mean this disparagingly, but the fanboy on the right doesn't look like the type who would be asking a girl out on a date, if you know what I mean. Might wanna do something about the highlights in his hair.

If you made prints of this one, I'd buy 'em in bulk and hand them out at Fandemonium.
