Just being honest anon. Sooner I accept the reality the easier it is to move on and keep trying to enjoy what I love.

>tfw by the time I shower, the water is cold


God I hope I can sleep tonight because I'm sick and I'm pissed about my weekend so far, and I'm getting nervous about corporate heads visiting my workplace.

Eugh, I swear, if I didn't smell and pee so badly, I would have turned my bike around and hurt the guy in a very sensitive spot - shit, I could have thrown my nasty shoe at him. I'm so tired of trying to keep my cool and pretending to not give a shit when this is such a reoccurring phenomenon through my life. I almost wished that he had cat-called me because I really smelled and probably looked a little gross.

/sage because although a strong set of feels, not totally cgl related unless I extended my post

>tfw Kaoru Mori is coming to the worst con in the country

>If you could, which fandom at cons would you kill off forever?

Doc Who, Supernatural, Homestuck, Sherlock, Avengers/Marvel in general (especially bad crossplays), Naruto, Hetalia, Death Note, The Hobbit, and....

ALL THE FUCKING DEAPOOLS!

No seriously, what is the goddamn calling autistic faggots have to cosplay him and run around like a 13 year old weaboo being lolrandumb?

>Which dead fandom would you bring back to replace that one?

I don't know if it's dead, or if it even lived in the first place but... Warhammer 40k.

I love the lore, I love the fluff, and I love the goddamn art I've seen of IG. I just don't see it enough cosplayed in 'Merika.
