The socially awkward are, nevertheless, social

I watch a fair amount of foreign television on CrunchyRoll. They cater primarily to the anime crowd but they throw in a few dramas while they're there and that's where I sneak in.

For their target audience, though, they provide other services, like meet-ups and contests and helpful articles on what to do at a nerd-con. I'll give you the highlights:
SOCIALIZE! You never know who you will meet at a con, so don’t be afraid to talk to people you’ve never met before. They’re anime fans just like you, so at least you’ll have some common ground. Sometimes the coolest people you’ll ever make might come from a convention, so remember to get out of your shell and have some fun. A convention is always better when there are others to share the joy with.
and
SHOWER SHOWER SHOWER. You’re going to be in an enclosed building with thousands of other attendees just like you, so it’s going to become hot and sweaty within a couple of hours. When you’re in one place with this many people, you’re going to want to be as fresh as possible otherwise you’re going to smell it.
That is has to be written out makes me so sad.
