Tell me about it. There were alot of nice moms and old people in the mall at AB this year, but taking the T was troublesom a couple times, as well as the occasional "faggots!" coming from a passing car. Which is funny because the people screaming that actually hit a red light infront of the 25k people waiting to get into the con entrance. They kind of shut up, rolled up the window and ducked down.

You know, I come from a really shitty part of town, and seeing a bunch of people dressed up like super heros and cartoon celebrities walk down the street would make day, even if I had no idea what it was about. Do these people who sit there and go, "The fuck are you dressed like an idiot for? Are you dumb?", really prefer to have nothing but violent thugs lumbering around them constantly? Honestly, 90% of the haters WISH they could cosplay for one day, they are just afraid of being judged. No kid wants to grow up to be normal, and these cons let you be that idol for a bit.

This thread seems to be getting somewhere, if we could just get past the shit-flinging and pointless arguing-

Oh.

Going up to somebody who has a really good cosplay of a character you like, then finding out they know nothing about him/her is soul crushing. They're free to do what they want, sure, but it's fairly annoying. It makes one wonder why they're cosplaying in the first place, it's certainly not for the love of their character.
