Here are a few photos from Saturday’s ROFLThing NYC, a mini conference on Internet memes, that took place last Saturday at Santos Party House in Manhattan.
Troy Hitch (the voice of Donnie Hoyle) and Matt Bledsoe of Big Fat Brain attempted to talk about their experiences making “You Suck At Photoshop” while their presentation was being “hacked” and the crowd relentlessly heckled them.
Jason Scott told the story about how his cat Sockington became the most popular cat on Twitter. You too should join the Sockington Army!
Charlie Todd talked about some of the great pranks he has organzied over the years with Improv Everywhere.
The event’s “keynote” was given by Vincent Connare, the creator, the Comic Sans font.
