Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, nerds of all ages, we present to you the third annual list of the 10 craziest SXSWi sessions.
Once again, I need to make a disclaimer that we have no method behind this madness. It is just madness. A crack team went through the list of all panels (there are so many, by the way) and picked the 10 that made us laugh.
Apps of the Future: Instagram for Cyborgs: Since cyborgs don’t eat, what exactly would they take pictures of?
Your TV Knows Who You’ve Slept With: Um. This could get real weird real fast.
Hey, Where’s My Robot Girlfriend?: Yeah, and my flying car. And my hover board. Promises have been made!
Alcoholic Designs Organization, Shenanigans Ensue: Well, duh…
How to Be Interesting: If you need to attend this panel, you are doing it wrong.
Tweets from the DMZ: Social Media in North Korea: You want to know the crazy part? They are taking Instagram photos of their food just like everyone else (expect the cyborgs).
I Overthrew My Government… Now What?: That is a very good question….
What Can We Learn from the Unabomber?: I can save you an hour — nothing. Please don’t learn anything from the Unabomber. Thanks very much, the ENTIRE WORLD.
How to Handle Suicidal Users Without Freaking Out: Again, I will save you the hour – freak out. Freaking out seems to be the appropriate response.
Fresh Prince + Downton Abbey: A Perfect Engagement: I didn’t realize it until now, but Geoffrey and Carson would probably have a lot to talk about. A note to Julian Fellows: In the series finale of “Downton Abbey,” Carson should somehow be Geoffrey’s great-grandfather.
Looking forward to SXSWi this year. Will we see you at any of these sessions?
