Eric Wu of Eric Conveys An Emotion To Attend San Francisco ROFLThing!

Aficionados of the Web 1.0 internet culture universe will remember an epic little site from way back when in 1998 called Eric Conveys An Emotion. The premise was simple, but brilliant: people would e-mail Eric (pictured above doing “Faked Surprise”) emotions, which he’d then take a picture of himself expressing. It managed, inexplicably, to be endlessly amusing (and time-consuming for the procrastination-minded). Must’ve spent a good chunk of my tender young life browsing through the site.

Anyways, happy to announce that as part of our usual open call to all internet celebs: he’s officially confirmed that he’s coming to chill out at our August 29th San Francisco ROFLThing. The only phrase for this is — sassy fabulous (obviously).
