Unfortunately for WFC, their bid to become the most idiotic convention of the year has been blown out of the water by SXSW.

Which was unexpected, and an unwelcome surprise at that.

I don't know about unexpected, unfortunately. The interactive part of SXSW has often had pretty close ties to the more clueless, entitled parts of the tech sector.

He sounds a little upset.
