In my little mind I'm a member of STUDS (capitalised, isn't an acronym, just
funny in a non-PC non-genderspecific in-joke kind of way) which is the Sydney
regional Lego Users Group (SLUG/SydLUG). Our bi-monthly gatherings are variously
STUDSfests (because they're our fests and we're members of STUDS) or Studfests
(because the bricks we play with have studs on them) -- I prefer STUDSfests.
SLUGS is a vaguely derogatory/self-deprecating term (depending on who says it)
that refers to the members of STUDS.

Yes, a SLUGfest sounds like either:
1. a night at a French restaurant eating snails
2. an event of the World Wrestling Federation
It's up to you Sydneysiders, but does the self-image of being an eater of
molluscs or having the same IQ as a mollusc seem that appealing?
Be a man, not a mollusc, I say!
