That Open Source Boob Project is probably the stupidest and ickiest thing I've ever seen on LJ (and that's saying something). Expect this one to be wanked to death.
Well, you gotta hand it to them. Those one-time Chess/AV Club geeks are constantly coming up with new and innovative ways to avoid dying as completely sexually frustrated virgins.
Necessity is the mother of invention, as they say.
You're dealing with guys that go to cons. And while many of them are nice and basically normal and there to buy videos and talk Doctor Who or whatever, there is a distinct subset that are socially retarded morons. The nerds, if you will, that give the rest of us a bad name.
I see that this guy gave a non-apology ("I'm sorry if you were offended, but that's not my fault, since I'm too much of an idiot to have forseen that...") but if he's smart he'll crawl under a rock until the solar system decays. I doubt he'll be welcomed with anything but extreme outrage at cons in the future.
I don't know about wank. I'm seriously angry that this will cause random assholes to approach women at cons and harass them. It's a horrible feeling to have someone treat you like a serious of holes. It's even worse when it's under the slimy pretext that women are responsible for healing your bruised ego for all those times you were shoved in a locker. And having to wear a badge that it isn't okay to harass? I...no words. Only violent retribution.

Well...
