Not sure what Fred Phelps was doing picketing Comic-Con, but it ended well enough from the standpoint of aggregate utility. Favorite sign: “F&*%#@# magnets, how do they work?” (If you feel like wasting some time, the wiki page on Phelps remains fascinating. Or try Phelps’ own God Hates Sweden [sic].)

The guy holding the “God Hates Jedi” sign is my friend Jon. He is excellent. Some websites of Jon’s:

Best part of the anti-Phelps picketing is that it was done to raise money for LGBT causes. :) http://www.warrenellis.com/?p=10086
