Seeing as how furries apparently have sort of a natural predilection for punning, (not to mention pontification,) plus a lot of really bizarrely specific cons, (I did a post on that once, didn't I? I seem to remember...) That's right, I've giving the furry and brony conventions their own, special category of con name. There are imaginably a few really really good ones, as well as ones that are quite frankly just plain awful.
THE GOOD
- BroNYCon: Because it's in NYC. That's just awesome.
- Brony Fan Fair: oh... oh! I get it! Like fanfare and... clever, clever.
- Fur-Eh!: It's Canadian!
- Furthest North: so is this one!
- Everfree Northwest: The northwest version of Everfree gets bonus points for kind of sounding like "Everfree Forest."
THE BAD
- Rain Furrest: I'm not even going to touch that one.
- Furnal Equinox: Nor this one.
- EquestriaCon: Uninspired. Really, ones like these stand out in the seas of puns that these can be.
- Canterlot Gardens: Lovely, but this one is pretty boring, too. Hey, I'm just saying these are bad names for cons; these are nothing compared to:
THE UGLY
- Galacon: another Brony thing. Named after the Grand Galloping Gala? Or apples? I might have checked this once, and I think both. At least the other ones make sense.
- Furloween: I guess I can... kind of... see what you were trying to do?
- Howloween: okay, that one makes more sense.
- Fur the 'More: It's in Baltimore, hence, 'More, and its mascot is a raven, like the Poe kind, because Poe lived in Baltimore. The entire thing is so clever it's dumb.
And I feel like I should give out some
SPECIAL MENTIONS
where exactly how bizarre these can get gets lampshaded.
- ConFuzzled
- FURther CONfusion
- What the Fur
