Holiday Edition!

Bit Bazaar Winter Market

Where: Bento Miso (862 Richmond St. West)

When: December 7 from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Cost: Admission is free, but if you want to buy gifts you’ll need some money.

Type of Couple: The comic/ video game lover. It could also be a good date for you to expose your significant other to this culture or a great gift idea if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend who loves this sort of stuff.

Why: This event, in support of local indie game makers, is a video game and comic market. This event not only allows you to find the most unique one-of-a-kind gifts from limited edition goods, zines, games, shirts and posters, just to name a few, but it is sure to be one of the most interesting dates you’ll have all year. If I was still dating my ex, I would have for sure suggested this as a date! You can play games in the Arcade of the Bazaar, partake in a game by Damian Sommer which requires you to collect cards from vendors or just have a bite to eat and meet some talent.

I always say you need to find the date that will give you hours of conversation, because the worst thing is running out of stuff to say. However, anything that involves comics and videos games could work to your advantage. Whether you understand the art or are exposing someone to this culture for the first time, the conversation will never die because these events are sure to be bizarre and have many wtf moments that will have questioning whether you just saw that or not.
