Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

GospelCon Lady: "Hallelujah!" as I stumbled more than half drunk through a crowd of Gospel folk saying "Can I get a hallelujah, anyone?!"

The gospel people were awesome. :) All of the ones I ran into anyway.

As more start coming back to me through the recovery process.

GospelCon Lady: "Hallelujah!" as I stumbled more than half drunk through a crowd of Gospel folk saying "Can I get a hallelujah, anyone?!"

Conversation between two business types.
Guy one: Did you see that email Robert sent out?
Guy two: Yes, sure did
Me (just passing them in the opposite direction): So did I, stop checking your email on the TV.
Guy 2: Huh? (followed by a look of confusion and borderline horror)

Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

Best quote in years, from Pappy screaming in a crowded party:
"ADVANCE! ADVANCE! PLOW THROUGH! I'M TOLERANT, NOT BLIND GODDAMNIT!"
(ya kinda had to be there, and have seen the look on Pappy's face)

Next best one:
Gospel lady: "What are all these odd looking people doing here?"
Me: "Obama youth retreat"

(Response stolen from Arclight's quote of last year..but it worked well)

Riding up in an elevator at the end of DC & the start of GospelCon:

random talking, joking

Me: So what are you guys here for?
Two nice ladies: It's a Gospel Music conference.
Me: Kick ass!
...
Me: Shit, sorry
...
Me: SORRY! I'm sorrysorrysorry
Them: (laughing) It's ok! You're fine!

hehe, longest elevator ride. They were very nice, though :)

Old guy in the elevator- "What are you here for?"
Me- "Uhh, a computer security conference."
Old guy- "I thought you guys were a bunch of hackers"
Me- "Kinda"
Old guy- "Well just don't fuck with the ATM!"
Me- "I won't mess with the ATM, but I wouldn't use the internet."
Old guy- "I don't even own a computer!"

Our little Defcon group adopted this really awesome guy who was in the USA for the first time from France and hung out with him all weekend. We were talking politics and law, and this guy busts out in full blown french accent and broken-ish english with,

"I have never been to a prison in the United States. ...could be fun."

I think I about broke a rib. It was hysterical.

After seeing the line for the Adam Savage talk, going to the food court, and immediately coming back...

Me: How'd you guys clear that clusterfuck of a line up so quick?
Goon: we sprinkled pixie dust on it.

There were tons of others, but alcohol has clouded my thoughts.

lol, theme of the weekend for me.

Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

my favorite quote may have been on monday or tuesday as the last bits of the DEFCON crowd was leaving and the early arrivals of the GospelCon were showing up in large numbers...

random hacker among small group of DEFCON people walking one way: that's the only bad thing about the new roommate arrangement... i can't fuck in my living room whenever i want anymore"

random lady in group of folk in gaudy white gospel outfits walking the other way: "oh my heavens!"

another hacker: "dude, it's still your place... you have the right to fuck whomever you want, wherever you want"

gospel lady: "oh, lawzee!" (covering her ears and looking away)

I have two:

Poofta (tongue yellow from BRAWNDO): "This is what happens when you eat out too many Asian girls."

Lord_Nikon: "Don't I recognize you from Studio 54?"
Girl 1: "I don't think so..."
Lord_Nikon: "I know I saw you somewhere..."
Girl 1: "Where you at Hacker Pimps last night?"
Lord_Nikon: "Yeah"
Girl 1: "I was one of the strippers."
Lord_Nikon: "Oooh...that makes sense."

Xaphan: "You know what the best part of having that baby was? Stealing these pants from the hospital."
Int 80 from Dual Core: "It's peppermint flavored" (in regards to one of his body parts)

There were tons of others, but alcohol has clouded my thoughts.

Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

Don't recall who said it, but the best thing I heard was "Get your d-COn on for Bee con!"

Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

Sitting at the ONE bar in the RIV Tuesday night:

I approached an attractive working girl (obvious when she said hi to me..since I am an ugly fucker)
girl: "what are you in town for?"
me: "information security conference."
girl: "oh.. I had a guy tell me he was a 'hacker', strange.. it is not like I tell everyone I am a whore."
me: "you will have a great weekend here..."

Re: Favorite Quotes of DEFCON 17?

We had a very amusing few minutes with some Goons who were trying to find out where the closing ceremony was going to be held, after dispatch was closed.

After some back and forth regarding bees the answer was finally "Track 6". To which another Goon jumped on the walkie and said "Actually track 6 is closed due to bees". I'm sure they were all in zombie mode by 4pm Sunday, so it was fun to hear them still having a good time.
