Since Anime Evolution was gone, Vancouver hasn’t had an anime convention for a couple of years. Fan Expo started this year, but it’s a lot smaller and not catered specifically for anime.

Here’s the announcement for the start of AR2012.

This was shared on “What’s Hot in Google Reader” over the weekend. I pondered why, it was not even funny. But then it hits me: the punchline is a self-referencing joke.
It may not be intentional by Jim Davis (or whoever writes Garfield these days…), but it’s pretty funny cause it’s true.

Just end it already, it’s dead!
