Good lord! Don't encourage him! :uhoh: You have no idea how insufferable he can get. After reading your post he was singing "Nessun Dorma" just to prove that he could!

This year's content warning:

"NOTICE:
The Otakon 2017 AMV Contest features plot spoilers, senseless violence, sexual innuendo, good feels, bad feels, epic volleyball, intense cook-offs, bad puns, Jesus... no seriously, Jesus, pretty much all of Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, and our 2017 quota of at least 1 Yuri on Ice video.

It's that awesome.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!"
