Swopa–

Apparently, the reason you’re watching is so you can whine about how boring it is.

Nice drive-by comment. Apparently, the only reason you left your comment is because you couldn’t refute the fact that the convention is boring, insofar as you haven’t seen any of it.

Your spurious comment is an example of a logical fallacy known as a circumstantial ad hominem attack, (though if anyone ever uses one on you it would be called a circumstantial ad trollem).

Logic is a beautiful thing. You should read about it sometime, perhaps take a mail-order course.
