I enjoyed my Otakons a lot more once I started to come down on Thursdays instead of Fridays, or Fridays instead of Saturday. Maybe what you should try is fly out to a con or go to a non-local con, because then you can really treat it as a vacation and do all the stuff fully.

My first convention was the 2008 Otakon, when I was in my early 20s, and from there, I always felt like I was “out of the loop” or that I missed the target age of con-goers from a bit. It’s kind of hard to say “I’m getting to old for this” when I haven’t even started doing said things yet, but that’s how it felt.

And even now I still do, but less so, I guess.
