Hey, folks—the summer convention season is kicking off, and that means it's time to return to our fannish roots and celebrate with geeky bling. I mean, of course, BADGE RIBBONS. Because nothing says "love" like pieces of fabric that you can stick to yourself. (Some people say that badge ribbons are totally over. I say that these are people who never played Halloweentown fairy princess when they were kids. We shall love our accessories until we die.)
So what do you think I should put on ribbons for this year? Suggest anything you like, from the silly to the sublime, and we'll see where things wind up going. Suggest a ribbon that I actually make, and I'll send you one, even if you're not attending the convention (first person to suggest the ribbon only, please). Keep in mind that we're trying to drum up interest and attract attention, but should still make a vague amount of sense while we're doing it.
Can I second the suggestions already used above? (Newsie, Irwin, Fictional, and When will you rise?)
I do have a couple of other suggestions, though:
Faerie Is Real Changling
Also, randomly, what company do you order your ribbons with? I want to have some made for Dragon*Con, and I could use some good recommendations. Thanks in advance!
Anyway, I has red it an it iz gud! Although how on earth you are going to follow that ending beats me, but you will (or have already, depending what state the sequel is in at the moment)...
"Go Ask the Luidaeg" "Team Tybalt" "Cut Grass and Copper" (on a green ribbon with copper text, bien sur) "An Artificial Night: 07/09/10"
"CDC Investigator" "Irwins: We Poke it With a Stick" "Newsies: Just the Facts" "Fictionals: We Make it Interesting" And maybe a ribbon for Stewarts. Obviously, I gotta soft spot for them.
I'd really like just about any of the FEED ribbons mentioned on this page with (and I know this costs more, but still) the blood-dripping RSS symbol. Or maybe a ribbon that's JUST the RSS. <3 I don't know if that sort of thing is allowed. Probably a non-dripping RSS would be just fine.
Speaking of costing more, I think some of the ribbon places have red, white, and blue ribbons, which makes me want a patriotic Ryman For President ribbon.

Dude, where'd I leave my car?
Give a girl a ride sounds good, but given how innuendo-filled most cons are is probably not a good idea. Maybe Give a Dead Girl a Ride?
