Matt D. Smith documents a day at Creative South, hitting Thai restaurants multiple times to test how much spice he can handle. He visits vendor booths, hangs with friends, and keeps going back for more heat.
It's 8 o', clock, first day of Creative South. They said there would be coffee during the registration, but it's going to be another 30, 45 minutes. And I understand things have a way to do a tiny bit of work and wait for my friend Alicia to speak in the next hour. So I'm gonna go over here and get some work done. Which one? Either one. Black. Black top. It's all you. I would have grabbed you one if I would have already got it. All right. In the meantime, definitely kind of a pain. Hopefully I can get this sorted out sometime in the not too distant future. Sometimes it happens. We're working through it. Maddox and Kyle are doing their thing at the Key Master booth, the Creative South. I'm going to snowboarding a lot with this guy at Epicurrents. Oh, my goodness. Did you camp with them too, at EpicArt? Yes. That's great. What you think of yourself is actually summation of what you think others think of you. So when you're like, so keyboard and trackpad still not working. Luckily, I decided to bring my Bluetooth keyboard and TrackP, so I'm making do in the meantime. Definitely kind of a pain. Hopefully I can get this sorted out sometime in the not too distant future. How are you with my friends that I love, but honestly, like, I get it. Hey, I'm Matt. Trisha. Great to meet you. Yes. I've been snowboarding a lot with this guy, Epicurrence. Oh, my good. Did you camp with them too, at EpicArt? Yes. That's great.

Meg's still cranking. I'm done exporting video right now. Now I'm gonna go awkwardly walk around and point the camera at people. You finished? Yeah, done. I'm exporting. Yes. Rocky Rourke. I share it with my friends that I love, but honestly, like, I get it. I was doing too. Lots of love here at Creative south for diy. Maddox and Kyle still going at it. How. How'd the booth go? Maddox and Kyle selling some games. Sold lots of games. Yeah, I'm not sure we brought enough games. Yeah, that's the problem. We're going to go grab some lunch. We're going to hit up Chili Thai. Chili Thai. Chili Thai. See if we can survive the heat. So last. Come on. So last time we were here, Maddox and I had the spiciest food ever. Maddox is going to Go for it again for lunch. I'm going to pull back. No, no, I'm still doing one less. Are you sure there's two? Last time we did three stars. Are you sure we did three? Yes. And the stars go from three out of three. You said give me Thai hot and not a good call, but I've done one step down. He's done two step down. So we're not going full tie high just now. Let's see what Maddo Spice. It's already burning my nostrils. I know. Oh, all the red flakes. It's gonna be so good. It's spicy. Level three today, man. We'll report back in a few minutes. Oh, man. It's already. I didn't put any rice on that bite, though. Made it. It's great. He made it. Surprise me. You're gonna get a before and after shot up of it. Feels like a clip. He did take his jacket off, but he handled it well. All right, we just destroyed lunch. Now it's time to do some more creative Southing. Hopefully no one stole my laptop while I was gone. I was exporting video. Boom. Good to see you. Freeze. Good. Eddie Lobonos. He likes the MDS stickers looking like a Hitchcock scene. It is closing time for the vendor booth at Creative South. Maddox and Kyle have sold nearly every control game. One left. One left. Do you want it? Do you Want it? Amazon. Amazon.com search for control card game. Closing down. We're going to go get some Thai food again. More Thai. You can never have enough Thai in Columbus. We're just sitting in the warm car, enjoying the atmosphere in here. Doors open on our ride. It's getting a little stuffy. We're gonna meet Josh, and I think Joel and Mark are gonna come as well. Not okay. Joel and Mark, you're gonna have to sit at a different table. More Thai food. More Thai food. Maddox is gonna go triple hot tonight according to math. Here we go. Here we go. I realized that I could probably just get it however you. However the house cooks it. Sure. We also. I mean. Yeah. What are some other favorites? What's that? Okay, let's try that. Sounds delicious. Sure. Maybe two orders. If they're delicious, maybe another curry, too. Chicken. Chicken's not chicken. And then is it all. Do you have white rice and coconut rice and what kind of rice? White rice. Okay. Can I get a Thai beer as well? We just had chili Thai for the second time today. Oh, so good. It was so good. We went double spice. Maddox led the way for lunch. We all got Double Spice this time. Now we're just gonna go check out the rest of the evening. What else we're gonna do? That it? I think that's it. That's gonna be it. And we'll see you next time. On another day or something like that, baby. I don't need a debit card to have fun tonight. So I bought one beer at the bar, and they gave my debit card to someone else. But thankfully, USAA is a good bank, and I just canceled it on the fly with their iPhone app. That's it. Five stars. Five stars for the usaa. No stars for the bartenders at that whatever bar was called the Loft, the Tap, Zero stars, neg.
