If only! These Filkers drag kids along to the embarrassment-fest, and the kids wander around the convention halls and hotels bored out of their minds looking for somebody, anybody who isn't as embarrassing as their parents. I'm sure it must be a form of child cruelty, especially when you see some of these parents dressed up as Conan or a Klingon.

I suppose conventions are supposed to be a meeting of minds, but every single one I've been to has been more about the meeting of t-shirts.
