Doesn't matter how long she's trained in xyz martial art- if she gets hit at full force by someone with greater weight/height than her, she's going down. The best things a woman can do for self defense are to 1) learn how to dodge a hit in the first place, 2) learn how to get out of a hold/restraint, and 3) learn how to roll/tumble out of a fall if she does get hit (eg. how to protect her head, ribs, neck, back etc.), so that there's minimal damage and she can get back up again and run or grab a weapon. BJJ, wrestling and other "floor techniques" are great for that.

I think this applies to any type of internet meetup for any kind topic that has a young audience. I suggest always meeting up with them in person first before staying in a hotel room with them. Have some kind of small meetup at a restaurant first.

Can confirm as a US Marine, it's either full chill or balls to the wall. Zero in between.

The point where you're so lonely that you do creapy stalky shit, thats one of the lowest points you can get. Lonelyness makes you desperate what makes making friends extra hard so you stay lonely.

I might be weird, but I never had friends who I only knew online, nor did I ever go to an anime convention. After watching this I honestly don't feel like I've missed something

So people actually make friends on discord and meet up and stuff? Damn im 20 and that is something I cant quite get my head around ngl.

I spend a lot of time in vrchat and a lot of people meet up irl. Usually it goes well but I know one guy who got robbed... I do have some friends that I know I can meet up and it'll be safe, but they're quite far away. On the other hand I have friends I don't know super well but they're closer to me, so idk. For the not so close friends I'd never bring them to my house, I'd much rather meet them at a neutral place like a bar. But I'd like to do it eventually.

You are COMPLETELY correct. I've shared rooms at 5 conventions with complete strangers and even my roommate and their significant other. There was drama or discord EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. People always have to drag their drama around with them and share it with everyone else FFS. People come to conventions either for fun or for business, they don't care about your drama you're not automatically best buds because of it.

As a girl and as someone with a lot of standards, I'd fucking never go unless its with friends from irl.

I mentioned the Geneva Convention once and someone thought is was an anime convention. So asked them if they wanted to go. They looked it up and thought I was going to do horrible things to them.

She also fell asleep and I woke up because the guy brushed a bruise I had from days prior. I kicked him and he acted like it was normal and even tried to touch me again until I began yelling. That's when my friend woke up and he began scrambling away. It was terrifying and I felt so angry no one stopped it since we were in a very public place. Everyone just stared at me and the guy and talked about it between themselves. I was too shook to really get mad though, but my friend took me to report it.

Every discord hotel room I've ever stayed in went very well. However none of the people were just randoms, we'd all known each other for years through discord at those points.

Wow! This convo is so interesting. I’ve never done anything like it but I have couch surfed. However, I couch surfed through various connections and I’m still friends with those people to this day. Lucky me and my dancer’s life

Connor stories are actually amazing

Fr my best mates and I have been friends for like over 1/3 of my life now, and the whole foundation is two things - being there for each other no matter what, and calling each other out on stuff no matter what.

While I know some people on discord can be just horrible, I met my best friend on discord and about 2 or 3 years ago, he had a holiday in the UK and me and my other friend agreed to meet with him and hangout. Eventhough we didn't do a lot and just walked around London talking, he still mentions how much that day made his holiday and it just makes me so happy!

I would never room with people on discord. I already know how I am... And there are worse people on there. Depends on the server too. But I'd especially never meet up people from an anime discord.

When joey asked why can't anything taht you plan on discord go right? i was like because it's discord, it's literally in the name lmao

I was thinking about the name itself too.

Good on you guys for telling people to call that shit out. Cahlling that shit out should be happening everywhere.

Their discord/online experiences are so different to mine. Topic communities where people don't have interpersonal talk about themselves and their other interests, doing meetups with people who aren't friend of friends or not mass meetup events with some vetting of attendees... I feel closer to, and have a better understanding of my discord friends who I talk to on a daily basis and have since IRC days than I do many of the people I know from IRL. Connections that start IRL in adulthood rarely stop being, well, closed. Even if you're friends for a decade.

Lol that hotel room discussion really brings me back to MTG tournament days... thank god eventually I said "fuck this shit, I have a big boy job" and refused to do more than 2 people in a room cause there were some nightmarish experiences lol

As an anime convention organizer we really do have a hard time trying to keep that many people in check especially when the staff to con goer ratio is so unbalanced. We try to ask people to respect and give space for others but they just shrug us off so please be more patient with staff

Really glad that most of my discord experiences meeting up were great, kinda iffy to go to a hotelroom together tho ngl.

Bro fr. When I used to study medicine, I was in an EMT program out in a country town, and a decent amount of the students in the program and trade school itself were going into the military in some capacity, and half of them were absolutely MENTAL. We had this incident where a few of the military ROTC students in the auto mechanics class put high voltage electrical equipment (not turned on ofc) on their friend's nipples and he jiggled them on camera, it got sent to absolutely everyone and this one air headed chatty girl in our class ended up telling our instructor, (who acted like our friend most of the time, and only became serious when it counted) expecting her not to report it, she did, and the students in question got expelled from their programs, which absolutely spiraled out of control, leading to the military ROTC students declaring war on us EMT's, the next several weeks, several fights broke out, as well as a general sense of tension in the hallways, which eventually led the school to assign a resource police officer in the wing of the school where our classes were, after warning both classes that any further incident would result in instant expultion and or legal action, it all ended after one ROTC kid who was sure the police officer wasn't nearby skateboarded past the EMT classroom in the morning during an important exam and yelled at the top of his lungs "fuck all y'all EMT pussies, were coming for you" and got his ass absolutely handed to him by the cop, fun times man...

I just realized that at the back of my head whenever i heard corpse's voice I've unintentionally been picturing conner sometimes🤦‍♀️

I've had a lot of good random rooms for cons through Facebook looking for rooms. I met a lot of chill people. I tend to talk to folks months before the con.

Discord + Anime = 90% Creepshow

This is my first time ever seeing yall. Gonna check out a lot more, this is hilarious!!

Yeah, this is why I would never meet anyone from Discord/online unless I've done significant voice/video chatting, because while it still doesn't give you a full grasp of their IRL personality, it's 10x more accurate than just texting them. I actually met my first IRL gf from discord, and although we've since broken up, both experiences meeting up were good and she wasn't much different than how she was over video chat. Could be that I just got lucky, but I would recommend anyone planning on meeting anyone from Discord to at least do a few voice chats and preferably video chats beforehand.

We shouldn’t forget what our parents taught us “Never talk to strangers” (Its also the reason im lonely but its better than being in danger,i also have some trust issue so i never let my guard down with strangers)

Well, talking to strangers is one thing. Opening up to them is another.

My discord meet ups and hotel trips were all fine. It definitely doesn't always go wrong, you just gotta be choosy and not stay with random people

No idea how I got this in my feed, but this was hilarious lolol.

23 (or around there) actually, makes it even more impressive.

Jesus, this makes me appreciate my discord server so much😭 5 years in and these bros really are my fam, took some shit/cringe servers to find them though

Shared a room at Pax with a friend from school who I had no idea prior he had some real issues socially and just mentally so that kinda shell shocked me and another friend. Him drinking from the hotel cup, cleaning it out, and then farting in it and putting it back is a memory I can't forget.

To get more room keys without looking suspicious, say that you accidentally laid your phone on your keys and deactivated them and you need two more.

Same. Everyone has been chill. Though I'm only on one server.

I feel blessed that in my country, it takes maximum two hours by public transport to travel from one end to the other, which means I can attend all the major anime conventions (about 4-5 in a year) and don't need to spend a single cent on a hotel room (because I can just go home). Mind you, the cons are still huge, with around 100,000 people across 3 days.

I've had good luck with meeting up with people from the internet and rooming with randos. Has always been a good experience.

"I love making a new friend in such a weird and unconventional way" Even though it's at an anime convention 😂😭💛

And Connor's Bizzare Adventure Continues...

10:02 Joey: "but you would do anything, for content" Connor:"No" *Laughs*" *Connor posts learning to be a pole dancer*

Discord meet-ups are not always bad. I went to a starcraft 2 event and was looking for place to stay. 2 guys had booked a small vacation home for 4 people and were looking for 2 more. So I convinced my other discord friend who I hadn't met before to join in. Turned out to be amazing. We chilled together, drank tons of wine and went to the inhouse sauna every evening. Amazig times. Though I gotta say the SC2 community is pretty amazing.

When in life you roll a d20 to receive the Good IRL Discord Friend Pass, but life gives you 5 instead of 20.

The thing Connor said about having fun stories about meeting someone is a really good point. One of my favorite stories to tell is how I met the love of my life playing Duck Duck Goose and dancing to "Rasputin" at a convention. Love you, my Dancing King!

I once shared a room with a group of guys I didn't know. It was a huge dorm style room that I shared with a whole rugby team. As a small 22yo girl I've never been so safe, or had so much fun, in my life. I look back now and don't know what I was thinking, but I was broke and really needed the room. I now have a 21yo daughter and the thought makes my hair stand on end.

Anime convention issues really just arise from the same thing, it's socially inept people not reading the room, and socially inept people not being able to defuse the resulting situation.

This video is wild, you couldn't pay me to do one of these as a viewer

The problem is the crazy ones are the only ones willing to meet with you guys in real life

Last time I went to a con I complimented this lady on her cosplay and she just starts talking to me nonstop about her life’s story and I’m socially awkward as is and I glance back and see that my fiancé and his siblings left. They come back like 20 minutes later and this girl is still screaming about her mom and how she wants to move out and when I can finally get away and ask why they left me I get a “omg I thought she was your friend!”... I haven’t gone to a con since

As someone whose watched every trash taste episode and am just rewatching this clip i almost never want to go to a convention they make all the people sound crazy
