Couple having an arguement (suspected inebriation involved) about 15' from my tent.
In essence, the woman was screeching that the man had lied to her. They'd met online through an SCA mailing list. He'd described his personna to her. They met for real at Pennsic. She was furious that the man she fell in love with (aka the personna) wasn't the same as the man she met (aka the real guy). "You lied to me about who you were!"
Uh, lady - you met online. (Duh, he lied)
You fell in love with his personna? (Man, you're dim)
You thought he actually was a 14th century lord with a castle (and really stupid, apparently)
Torn between giggling and strangling them, I stuck with giggling. Strangling them would have involved getting dressed and out of bed.
Oh - it was 3am at the time.
I love pennsic, but yah - the morons are worse each year, and I get older and crotchetier every year.
