NO, BITCH, I AM NOT BUYING YOUR COSPLAY PARTS FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE TOO CHEAP TO PAY $20 FOR A FUCKING WIG

When friends/family who aren't into cosplay offer you shitty advice or tell you how to/how they'd do it

>"Just buy this fabric anon, no one will mind if its not exactly the right colour"
>"Why don't you just wear one of the halloween costumes, they look just fine"
>"It's just a costume, can't you just wear something out of your closet that's kind of similar"
>"You shouldn't pay that much for a wig, I've seen them in the costume shop for £7"
>"The con's three months away, you don't need to start working on it so early"
>"You don't need makeup, your dressing as a boy"
>"Why can't you dress up as a girl, you are one, your boobs will be really obvious"

For fucks sake, if I followed your advice I'd literally be going in normalfag clothes and a party city wig like a total mong

Btw, the aforementioned are genuine quotes made by my cousin while she was at my house this morning, and I was going through my materials checklist. Though, my favourite part of the whole conversation with her was when she said

>"You can't dress up as him anyway, he's wearing all that armour.There aren't any shops that sell metal trousers"
