What gives on changing the night of the booking? Did they just not confirm the thing before putting the eventbrite page up, or did they pony up a cancellation fee?
Well, she didn't actually have the theater reserved for that Star Wars screening until the last minute, IIRC. I think a similar issue happened here.
I can’t stop laughing at the tiers and the pricing. Brianna/John really thinks highly of himself and that the game development scene must as well (they don’t).
This is the "genius" that tried selling rides in his Porsche to people for hundreds of dollars.
 
Frank: " We should price the tickets at $25 apiece, and we'll be sure to sell out the venue, hon."

John: "Or... we could sell ONE ticket for A MILLION DOLLARS!!! You have to think outside the box, Frank. Be a disrupter. It worked for RZA when he sold that Wu-Tang album to Shkreli. I think it's fair to say I'm better known, more important and more popular than the Wu-Tang at this point."

Frank: "FML"
 
Oh Lord, can you imagine these two degenerates touring a Steinway showroom?

A Steinway? You realize a magnificent concert pianist like John will settle for nothing less than a Bösendorfer 97-key grand, right?

They'll keep it in the front yard next to the Porsche.

I ... I don't know pianos.

Why don't you say what you actually mean, Wu.

"I'm flying out to San Francisco on Sunday to pretend to be a game developer amongst people who actually are game developers. I'm not actually going to bother going to the conference, all those boring sessions I don't understand! Instead, I'm going to have a private party with my ass patters in an expensive bar and call it a fundraising event even though it loses money. I'd very much like you to pay for my lifestyle of make believe and fantasy even though my husband already earns more than enough that I could visit the Bay Area every week without putting a dent in his wealth. Thanks for understanding, plebs. Sincerely, The Wuman in Tech."
 
Oh boy. Wu's GDC event has changed.

No longer Tuesday the 19th, it's now Thursday the 21st. Tickets are now in 4 tiers, starting at the original hundred bucks, going through "friend" at 250 bucks (But you don't have any friends, Brianna Wu), "Sponsor" at 500 bucks and the decidedly ambitious "co-host" at 2700 bucks (plus 172 dollar fee!) Each tier has 10 tickets available, and she may even have sold one at the lowest tier.

What the fuck. I can't imagine anyone wants to give 3000 bucks to spend 2 hours with Wu. In fact many people might pay that much just to avoid such a fate. What gives on changing the night of the booking? Did they just not confirm the thing before putting the eventbrite page up, or did they pony up a cancellation fee? Boy, Wu's accounts for this quarter are going to be fun.

Was this the thing at a bar that was going to be catered? I don't see anything about catering, just "drinks will be provided", which i'm sure means that Frank is bringing some Solo cups and a pitcher full of Tang.

I think you mean Powerade Zero.

Hey, I almost forgot. Week's almost over, where's the Boston Globe Op Ed, John? Don't say you made it up like that election post mortem you were totally going to publish in the New York Times.
 
"I was being attacked viciously, so I encouraged them to keep going after me and even made a thread specifically for them to harass me in."
Good job.

Yikes! Hasn't John denied in the past that he wrote that post? I know his battalion of white knights have vehemently denied it from Day One till today.
 
Alright, that tears it.
Does anyone have a concise record of the things Bri claims to have skill at?
Because so far we have a piano playing grease monkey who can field strip a glock and specializes in car and motorcycle maintenance who is also a world class programmer, tech startup leader, feminist, politician, comic book writer, and 3D modeling expert.

Is there any skill which this modern Renaissance wuman does not claim to possess? Is she also fluent in Hungarian and a trained Krabi-Krobong fighter who studies marine biology on the weekends?

Don't forget graphic designer. Wu at least once claimed to be a graphic designer.
 
I’m wondering, will Gaming Technology, Gender Studies, and Non-Colonialist/Decolonized African science replace traditional school courses under the regime of Supreme General Secretary and President of America Wu?
