Hi Kevin! I just wanted to say a great big thank you for coming to the con this year and for hanging out in the ungodly line after your Q&A. Your answers (and diatribes) were very funny as always, and thanks for answering the burning question that was irking my boyfriend and me the whole time (the Jenny's tattoo; good backup plan by the way, hehe). I stood next door in the Neil Gaiman autograph line because I'm a punk and didn't want to bog you down with another fangirl asking for a hug or a boob signing or whatever. After the way I saw fans abusing Angelina Jolie's generosity, I felt disgusted and somewhat ashamed of standing among the throng yelling stupid shit to get a famous person's attention and perhaps a free hug. So I stood in the shorter line and looked on (rather jealously) and watched you be the hunk of burning love you are by working the crowd, sweating like a pig, and signing everything there was to sign, and hugging everything that resembled a person.
Thanks again for coming down to San Diego, your fans appreciate it, and I'll be a part of one of your "focus groups" anytime. ;) Maybe next year I'll have the balls to hold out in the enormous Kevin Smith signing line so I can be an obnoxious fangirl and steal a hug.

p.s. I've been lurking this board for about 4-5 years now, and this is probably the first time I've ever posted. Those of us who aren't busy bashing your work enjoy appreciate it when you log on "first thing in the morning, still feeling good," and defend yourself against the naysayers. You rock!
