Comic Con Palm Springs starts up today and The Desert Sun is out with a few pretty basic tips to help anyone attending the three-day event not be a total dickhead.  

Items on the list of “what to know before you go” include: “show respect”, ask people before taking a picture of them, don’t bring real guns and swords, do not hoverboard around the convention, don’t bring a drone, and leave your dog at home.

Basically, it’s all the things that you should avoid doing in order to not be a huge douchebag at a comic book convention or, well, pretty much anywhere.

Solid advice.
