>sure, why not

>get to the venue
>shitty windowless shack on a golf course in the middle of nowhere
>oh look, they still haven't finished setting up
>wait 1.5 more hours to get badge
>inside is boiling hot and packed with sweaty nerds

>mfw the rest of my crew is lying around watching TV naked

Sometimes I wish I was an idol and it gets to the point where I just want to go about it but I realise I don't have the strength to just dance around in the outfits that idols wear.

Can anyone post horrible performances to make myself sure I would never seek that path.

Every time I see my sister, she brings her boyfriend and ignores me. Every. Damn. Con. The dude doesn't even cosplay; He just wears a "Vape Nation" shirt.

Christ, I'm glad you got your shit back. Thee are some really cruel mothers on this board.

Not that anon, but a friend like Mako would be life-saving.

Huh. I haven't checked out my lolita Facebook groups in a while. Maybe I sh--

>"Everyloli, I'd like you to meet POOPY, my genderfluid cat!"

Fuck this.

>photo op
>getting spanked with a yaoi paddle
>take a hit right in the scrotum

>all these suicide posts

I don't want ANY of you beautiful girls to kill la kill yourselves.

I've considered it. My only other romantic option is a.... non-weeaboo.

>about to take comm picture
>suddenly, accidentally imagine what it would be like to have a pole shoved up my ass
>click

The pic just went up on Fb, and I have a totally pained expression in it. Fml.

She posted my pic to Ig, saying "Please tell me if you know this guy." When I came forward, she followed me, liked a bunch of my pics, and told me I was "very cute."

I sure wish she didn't live a state away.

Hey, it's glutton-kun from the last thread.

Why did I buy ice cream? It's like a suicidal guy keeping a loaded gun in the house.

I'm not gonna be hot at the con in a few weeks.

The hell

How old were these kids? That could've been dangerous if it was a con creeper.

This isn't horrible, aside from the makeup and lack of binding, but I just don't understand why JNig.

I'm from the Northeast and the only con I've been to is Connecti-Con because it's my home convention.
I like to see good cosplays, good guests, and check out cool dealers room booths. I'm not a big fan of over sized crowds (so no NYCC) What Northeast cons would you recommend?

I'm currently considering Katsucon, Colossalcon, Otakon, and Anime Boston, which of those are your personal favorite/why?

I posted in the last thread about wanting suggestions from Sephora since I got my first job and can afford nice makeup.

I got one of the Anastasia brow dip things and it's heavenly, thank you to everyone that suggests them! Unfortunately though, their 'auburn' really is very brown and even though it matches my current hair color I do need something in a bright natural ginger, does anyone know of any brow products that come in that color?

I also got Bad Gal mascara because I love the wand/the way it applies but quickly realized it's not waterproof.. What're some good /waterproof/ mascaras available from Sephora that don't clump?

Y-you tried, kid.
You tried really hard.

>•Which pet peeves do you hate people for having?
I have a particular peeve with the people who don't like wigs.
I see it as like.. they only watch realistic/live-action things or they think we're talking about Party City quality wigs. If so, their newbness shines like a beacon.
But really, it's annoying. It's nothing to be proud of if you so-boldly hate something that 8/10 makes a costume look better, specifically anime costumes.

Bump for the new episode.

If you're not old enough to be on 4Chan, you shouldn't be watching it.

No I'm serious.
