/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>/cgl/ gf dumped me
>can't enjoy cosplay anymore
Uh... guys? My hobby is fucking ruined.

>>9846105
Just take a couple years off and go to cons by yourself as a regular nerd. The world is your oyster.

>spend months getting acne under control through diet and skin care
>suddenly massive breakout after having clear skin for a few weeks
At least I’m not going to any cons anytime soon

I just want a qt lolita gf that I can twin and share my wardrobe with

>>9846129
I’ll be your qt lolita gf anon-chan. Let’s be kawaii together.

>>9846129
no take me instead

>another nightmare about being unprepared for a con and having to wear a shitty thrown-together cosplay and looking ridiculous

I feel conflicted about cons. I want a gf, but I also want to do cosplay in earnest for a change instead of just going to a con hoping to meet a /cgl/ gf.

>tfw no time to stalk grocery store anon
It pleases me to know that the paranoia is setting in. I also hope my reward will be better than kombucha, as this gig is turning out to be more of a time investment than initially intended.

I thought everything was going to be great this year anons, I thought I was going to take most of the year off from working and finally get a moment to indulge in my weeb desires. I was so wrong and everything feels terrible anons. I'm not gonna get to go to those anime cons, or take a trip to the Japanese countryside. I'm probably not even going to blow money on jfash this year. Back to working myself to death, instead of actually being able to enjoy life. Oh well.

>>9846182
What happened?

>dream about going to AP tea party
>discover when I arrive that my wig has vanished and also I have a penis
>search for wig
>cock gets hard
>everyone is staring daggers at me
>erection grows to three feet at least
>petticoat rips to shreds trying to contain my dick
>comm elite hurl abuse at me for being a futa
>threaten to confiscate my alpaca plushies
>run for my life, don't grab no shoes or nothin'
>trip over my balls and crack my head on the table
>wake up in tears
>check to make sure my wigs and vagina are still there
What do you think it means, gulls?

Sometimes when I get really high I like to wear my lolita clothes just around the house. It’s not a kink or fetish thing, my clothes just make me feel really pretty and it feels good to wear them. Other than this I only really wear my lolita to big city meets since I’m in a small town and no one really ‘gets’ lolita here

i really hate planning coords in advance

i don't go to events often and as someone who likes to go with the flow and wear lolita in a casual/everyday way, the process of refining everything and buying things for specific coords makes me so neurotic

>basing this coordinate around flowers, therefore need a blouse with flowers on the lace or flower buttons duh
>guess i need to buy these thematically hyper-specific accessories to match a single coordinate
>hmmm this could use a ring/wristwear/brooch/some other thing i don't have on hand or need to make myself
>better paint my nails a different color each day to match each coordinate since they're all wildly different

i'm 100% overthinking everything but i'm going to be meeting lolitas i've only talked to online and i don't want to come across as out of place/underdone even though my style is usually pretty simple

>>9846191
You need to stop doing mushrooms before bed.

>get tired of current wardrobe
>begin selling a lot of pieces
>start looking at all the sales posts and shopping pages and not fully content with anything I see
>almost buy random stuff to fill the void but want cohesive wardrobe

i wish this was 2010 and wearing sweet lolita didn't automatically associate me with kinks like it does today, I feel like I'm forcing myself to like classic and I keep going back and looking at the pink dresses but my entire wardrobe is a mess and I just don't know what I want anymore. I don't want to make impulse purchases so I have a couple hundreds for lolita purchases sitting in my bank account as my wardrobe gets smaller. I don't want to leave lolita I love it so much but I just don't know what I want right now

>>9846209
I feel you anon. I've never been super OTT and whenever I join an events FB group, I feel like I'm not doing enough. Like some of these coordinate pieces I'm seeing as so specific, I'm not sure how they could be worn with another print. It leaves me wondering if the person just going to let the item rot in their closet or sell it right after the event?

>>9846209
>>9846216
To be honest I really don't care about that part of lolita.
Sure, there's always that short moment of "Wow, her nails perfectly match her print and this specific hair accessory and bag!" but I think it's way more impressive when someone has a super cohesive wardrobe and every item in it can be used in multiple ways.

Buying one really specific thing that only matches one coord does make it feel quite custome-y plus it just seems like a waste to me.
I'd rather only spend money on items that I can get a lot of use out of.

Oh well, I still think it's great when people get joy out of those kind of outfits and I understand why they appeal to others, but simple & versatile lolita will always be more 'impressive' to me.

Here's a double-feel clusterfuck for you:

Today my lovely ex built me a bench for the dream sewing room that I've always wanted!

>>9846101
>live in Czechia
>Have a sewing machine and a 3D printer, having fun making cosplays
>there's maybe one con a year, it' on the other side of the country and nobody from /cgl/ goes there

>>9846229
ex? is he trying to get back with you?

>>9846241
same, but i save up to go to out of state events eventually.. don’t know how much it costs for you though, usually ~$800 for me a trip.

>>9846246
It's.. Really complicated. He's going through the "oh I'm 30 I'm an adult what is life" crisis right now. We've stayed (very) close since he ended things.

>>9846246
You live in Czechia?


And I know, but yeah, that's kinda expensive. Actually that's more than my untaxed monthly wage
and taxes are like 45% here...
I guess I should try going to germany

>>9846168
Do what I do, cosplay for the sake of cosplaying and if you happen to meet a potential gf that's a bonus. Cosplay is a great conversation starter anyway.

>>9846191
Fuck off with your dumb fetish shit.

>>9846191

I'm really conflicted about cosplaying anymore. I've been browsing this board for the past few months, trying to get back into cosplay and think of new things I'd like to do but I'm really questioning the point of it all. is it okay to spend so much money on a hobby when I'm young? I don't know why I'm so crazy about money at age 18 but I feel like cons are a huge waste of my money and time, and I feel that way with literally almost anything I do. I'm not even sure why I'm going to cons if I don't make friends and I'm not social enough to go and have a good time with people. what am I going for at all? I dont want to think this way, i just want to enjoy something i use to love. somebody just at least tell me it's okay to do things I enjoy, please

>>9846330
You were born free. Do whatever the fuck you want.

>>9846330
You're still young, and if you've got the money to spend, why not spend it on something you enjoy?
As you get older you'll have less free time and more shit to worry about, not to mention you might start feeling out of place (like I've seen plenty of posts on here say) when everyone else is around your current age.

If it's something you enjoy, if it's something that allows you to have fun, then don't worry about money too much (within reason, obviously). It's meant to be spent on things anyway.

>Tfw Lolita gf sits on her knees naked to steam her dresses

D-do all of you do this?

>>9846182
I feel you. Good luck anon

>first nice day in months
>took a walk down by the beach
>a seagull pooped on me

>>9846347
Hahaha! Loser!

>>9846193
>implying people in big cities "get" Japanese street fashion
They likely just don't really care to get in your face about it. Unless you live someplace dangerous, I don't see why you wouldn't wear lolita where you live.
Otherwise, same, minus the being high part. Wearing lolita indoors for "no reason" is fun.

>>9846209
>>9846226
I agree with these sentiments; is there a reason you feel like you must wear something OTT to this meetup? Is it a fancy tea party, or do you just feel like you need to make an impression in front of a comm that's commonly OTT?

>>9846215
Please don't force yourself to like anything that you don't genuinely enjoy, just to avoid outsiders' opinions, no matter how obscene they might be. If you like sweet, wear sweet. Don't let rando's prejudice dictate your life.

>>9846215
Just wear sweet. Life's too short to worry about what others think.

>crush hard on fellow gull
>casually browse /social/ archives
>she posted her nudes there several times

>>9846372
How would you know it was her
how much did you stalk?

>>9846191
I've dreamed about having a dick before, but never in lolita. That's too funny.

>>9846383
>>9846191
>mods prune best contribution
why would they do this

>>9846372
>casually browse /social/ archives
This is the most pathetic pastime I've ever heard of

Lmao, to all our visitors and newfriends, try to use "Proud Asian" in your name field.

>think there is a certain amount on my accoubt still, so i just put in it for almost that amount of money.
>going up to pay with my card.
>notenoughfunds.mp3

I already called my family if they can come and pay for the gas so i can finally go home, but im sitting here for 2 hours now. What do i do now??? I didn't even spent any money on the con aside from the tickets, not even for food...

>>9846215
People that only wear mainstream fashion will probably think you're weird whether you're wearing kinky baby room or couch-kei so wear what makes you happy.

>>9846400
>Not having an emergency credit card for just such occasions
Really, though, there's not much you can do except wait for someone to pay for the gas or sell some of the stuff you have with you to random passers by.

>Have perfect natural hair to cosplay one character for a con
>Other character for that weekend is completely bald

>>9846409
I've never been in debt before, always making ends meet somehow. This is no different. just checked my account online, my bank fucking reserved some money off of my disposable, because i apparently used some of their service i didn't even know about... fucking advertisements and "special offers" from my bank. I JUST WANT TO KEEP MY MONEY THERE AND USE THEIR PLATFORM TO PAY MY SHIT! fuck their offers and ads...
I'm switching banks tomorrow...

>>9846415
Go to a credit union if you can. Back when I was in high school and had no money ever I was constantly overdrafting just to put gas in my truck to go to school. BECU didn't give a shit, I just put more money in my account when I got some plus an extra $5 for the overdraft. Rinse, repeat.

>follow a girl on twitter
>she always buys overpriced jfash
>she recently bought a $300 dollar AP dress
>it's an ugly and unpopular print, saw it on fril for 8000 yen
I kind of feel bad for her but she'd probably bitch at me if I pointed it out/tried to help her.

>>9846440
Doesn't sound like she really wants help, to be honest. Let her waste money on scalped shit if she wants to.

>>9846372
oh no, I think I know who you are

>>9846704
I was hoping for some twist or comedy, not watch a fat puppet get laid :T

A fan asked me what I want to do with my life after I'm done with Youtube and I avoided the question with vague responses. I'm almost 30.

Costume comes in tomorrow and it's my first taobao order. I'm expecting it to be garbage so I don't get my hopes up.

>>9846372

no /cgl/ poster had nudes. Not even Jessica Nigri has nudes leaked.

>>9846710
They know, anon
You're fucked, I'm sorry to say it.

>>9846710
Learn a trade, coding, if you have the money, maybe even a degree, but I really hate the way the college systems work. Maybe IT certs? Either way, the sooner you start making a plan B, the better. What's your youtube channel btw?

>>9846725
This, a trade is pretty much the only way to go after a certain age.

>>9846729
Wouldn't say that.
You don't magically become retarded after 30.
Although I'd very much reccomend going for a degree that is going to give you a good chance of netting a good job, if you go for college.

>>9846733
I wasn't necessarily talking about intelligence, sometimes age can be a factor in getting a job.

>>9846719
>who is Spoony

>>9846741
Oh... My bad. That is true I suppose.
I'd advise a male dominated field then, that way you'll have brownie points in HR for balancing out the gender

>>9846733
>Trades are for retards
Found the person who calls AAA when they have a flat tire.

>>9846749
who ever suggested that

I'm glad to hear that attitude but you're barking up the wrong tree.

though I do everything myself after being ripped one time too many for low quality service.

How do I stop torturing myself by reading shit that makes me angry at the world?
Every day, there's a new reminder that society as a whole sees me as less than human for the sin of being born the wrong gender and race. I used to think it was just my experiences, but now I know it's not just me, but a focused thing on basically all people like me, and it's turning me into a very jaded human being. And if it's not that, it's a story about injustice on somebody else, and the world blaming them for existing. Just a fucking hodgepodge of misery all around. There's nothing I can do about it except withdraw entirely, but "no man is an island".

I can't even talk about it, because the mere notion that we're not living in a fair world triggers some people, and they see fit to attack me and prove my point further.

>>9846766
Trade Salon and Gawker for studies and statistics.

>>9846766
>society as a whole sees me as less than human for the sin of being born the wrong gender and race.
What gender and race?

>>9846769
I don't read either of those sites, and everything I know is proven by statistical data. Strawmanning is dumb.

>>9846771
Does it matter? No matter how I answer, some idiot will get mad and make it into a fight. That's not what this is about.

>>9846777
>Does it matter?
Well, it would help if I had some context for the situation and could determine what you're dealing with.

>>9846777
>everything I know is proven by statistical data
oooh

maybe just start working on yourself and stop blaming society for everything, unless you have a legal and or definite statistical basis to claim everything is society's fault. At most, you can really only blame the environment you were born in.

>>9846780
five bucks says self victimising black woman or an extremely self victimising asian.

>>9846780
Then, what's your gender and race? How you personally relate and your own lived experiences would play a lot into your advice.

>>9846785
>you can't understand this unless you're the same race as I am

lazy lazy lazy argument

>>9846785
Not a fan of the "muh lived experiences" routine, but I'll bite. I'm a young man of British and Dutch descent.

>>9846784
See? You're already triggered and making guesses as to who I am based on your hurt feelings. "Everything is society's fault"? Literally no one said that but you.
Funny that you'd project your own mediocrity on me, as well, like noticing the shitty parts of the world must mean I can't also work on myself and be an accomplished person in my own right.
I bet you relentlessly read tripe like Salon and Gawker specifically to build up a bias, and were hoping you'd found someone to confirm said bias. Too bad you were wrong.

>>9846791
"Every day, there's a new reminder that society as a whole sees me as less than human for the sin of being born the wrong gender and race."

Your words, not mine.

I'm just fucking tired of the most catered to people complaining about things they cannot prove, because it is in their own interest to believe them.

Unless you're a farmer in south africa right now, where children are made to watch their parents hacked to death by machetes and then drowned in boiling water, you can fuck right off, and stop derailing my thread.

>>9846786
>If I put stupid sentences in green text, maybe that will be the same as impersonating the other person so that it'll be like they said the stupid thing!
Like I said: Strawmanning is dumb. Pathetic, too.

>>9846794
>Then, what's your gender and race? How you personally relate and your own lived experiences would play a lot into your advice.

This is what you said.
Your words, not mine.
You're either borderline retarded or baiting.

>>9846742
I think it was a joke, anon.

>>9846793
>Your words, not mine.
Show me where that reads "Everything is society's fault". You can't, because it doesn't read that. That's how you personally read it, because you are triggered by the notion that the world is a shitty place. That isn't my problem.
>I'm just fucking tired of the most catered to people complaining about things they cannot prove, because it is in their own interest to believe them.
I can prove them, but that's not what my post was about, and I don't owe you shit as an anonymous person on 4chan.
>Unless you're a farmer in south africa right now, where children are made to watch their parents hacked to death by machetes and then drowned in boiling water,
This is the same as "there are childern starving in africa" virtue signalling bullshit, but for fake "woke" /pol/aks. Useless and retarded, good job.
>you can fuck right off, and stop derailing my thread.
Last I checked, this isn't "your" thread, and you are actively derailing the thread by starting an argument when you could've ignored my post like all the other vents ITT. Instead, you got pissy and passive aggressive.
Fuck off back to the Gawker comment section or reddit or something. I'm sure you'll find someone in your mental age range there.

>>9846791
>>9846802
>strawmanning is dumb
>makes six strawmen within five minutes

Impressive. Now unless you don't have anything concrete to bitch about and derail things further, you can leave.

>>9846796
So, I guess the problem is just that you're delusional and simply read things that aren't there. Everything is seen through Autism Vision for you.
How did you get past third grade?

I let my boyfriend's friend share a hotel room with us and she showered with the door open. I asked if she cared that my boyfriend saw and she said it's fine because he has seen her naked before. I closed the bathroom door on her and asked my boyfriend if they had a history and he said no.

>>9846802
>muh /pol/
There it is

>>9846804
I don't think you know what strawmanning is. If you seriously need an anon on a basket weaving site to point out the inequalities in the world, you're too dumb to live.
Now you stop derailing and take your bitching elsewhere.

>>9846809
>can't come with a rebuttal
>reads "/pol/" and goes "Th-There it is" (as if I don't browse /pol/)
Kek, weak, but expected. Are you done shitting up the thread now that you have a pathetic "out"?

>>9846811
To conform to your bait, I'm a Sephardic Jew, living in Czechia. Would be funny if I was a /pol/ak, but muh /pol/ is the only argument you have apparently. You still brought nothing but your deep rooted personal identity of self victimisation. Leave.

>>9846808
Well fuck. That's awkard. Though it almost sounds like she is actively trying to stir drama. Some people are like that, surprisingly many actually. Especially since she left the door open.

>>9846815

it didn't seem like she was trying to start something. They have been friends long before we were dating.

>>9846815
>m-muh /pol/
see >>9846814
I don't think anyone here asked about your ethnicity or religion, mostly because no one cares. And for your complaints about me not bending over backwards to "prove" things to you, like I said:
>that's not what my post was about, and I don't owe you shit as an anonymous person on 4chan.
>you are actively derailing the thread by starting an argument when you could've ignored my post like all the other vents ITT.
You're the one who needs to leave.

>>9846817
I see. It's still fucking weird to leave the shower door open, even around family. Around friends it seems almost intentional.

>>9846818
You're the one posting shitty bait. You're also the one who is extremely argumentative with zero arguments.

I work minimum wage so I don't make enough to go out on a monthly basis. I finally saved up and one of my Youtube friends invited me to go to an Anime Convention with her and let me borrow some of her old costumes. When we ate out everyone looked at me weird because I got a to-go box for my leftovers. Everyone else left their leftover food on their plates. I barely eat so I'm not used to large meals. I wanted to save the rest of my food for breakfast tomorrow. I guess rich people don't eat leftovers.

>>9846817
It's also possible that she has little sense of boundaries or just plain doesn't give a fuck if people see her naked. I've known a couple girls who would change clothes in the middle of a crowded room without a second thought.

>>9846766
>wrong gender and race
Where is this an issue that you have easy access to 4chan and can post anime pictures
Unless you're a black albino hermie I doubt anyone gives a fuck.

>>9846819
It wasn't bait, but even if it was, it can't be that shitty, considering how much you're chimping out.
>actually starts an argument, then complains the other person is "argumentative"
The funny thing is, you have no argument but "Uhh you must read Salon and Gawker", and then "Well you haven't proven it to me so stop posting", as if my post was directed at you personally or something, and that people aren't allowed to post things you disagree with on the internet.

>>9846820
I make close to 100k a year but I don't waste food. I finish it or save it. It's a personality thing. Getting to-go boxes is completely fucking normal.

People who waste food are disgusting.

>>9846822
Accessing 4chan and being able to use cartoon pictures really isn't some sort of world-class privilege.
In the first place, imageboards like this are literally perfect for people with shitty connections.

Why do you always have to take the bait and off topic shitposting?
Why can't you just report and move on?
Mods seriously should just ban these threads. I bet a good 80% are crossboarding shitposters who only visit this one thread.

>>9846826
Having continued access to the internet, bad connection or not, and also being able to save anime reaction pictures is a world class privilege. You're also on /cgl/, what does any of this garbage have to do with this board unless you can afford the luxury of cosplay or lolita?

If neither are your hobbies fuck off already.

>>9846829
>I bet a good 80% are crossboarding shitposters who only visit this one thread.
Um excuse me, I visit multiple threads for the purpose of shitposting and collecting fap material.

>>9846825
holy shit, what do you do for a living? Granted I live in eastern europe but I don't make a tenth of that.

>>9846829
I agree. It's like these threads are somehow a free for all but any time anyone is rude or slightly OT in another thread, they get the banhammer. What's the deal, mods?

>>9846830
>Having continued access to the internet, bad connection or not, and also being able to save anime reaction pictures is a world class privilege
How is being able to save anime reaction pictures a privilege? Are we going through a world anime shortage?
>you can afford the luxury of cosplay or lolita?
I can, but funnily enough, I'm using a feel thread for feels.
Again, you got pissy at my post when you could've ignored it and moved on like all the other non-lolita/jfash posts ITT. You're the one who's making these threads garbage by selectively blowing anything you don't relate to out of proportion. Go scream at ED anon, too, I bet that's right up your alley.

>>9846833
I got lucky and moved up through hardwork in an IT company with high turnover rates. I'm a college dropout and this is probably the most I'll ever make in life.
And anyway if you don't learn to save your money it's pointless. It wasn't too long ago I was living in my car showering at planet fitness.

>>9846836
Feels threads are supposed to be related to the board sweetie. So feels about cosplay and lolita, not your hilarious life situation.

>>9846836
That's not even the same person anon, I stopped taking you seriously ages ago.

>>9846835
Feel threads have always been containment places for shit that's only tangentially related (or completely unrelated) to /cgl/. The mods deleted them on sight at first because they always end up with infighting, but people complained and persistently made new ones, so they threw their hands up in the air and let it be.

This is the future you chose.

>>9846838
Man, I guess I'll have to go to IT too, eventually. Had been thinking about power engineering but that seems to be where the money is. And I like the idea of home office.

>>9846841
Cute post, honey, but your autistic screeching and backseat moderating won't change that people will post things you don't always like. Sorry. I'm sure there are plenty of nice hugboxes you can find.

>>9846842
Ok

>>9846845
>talking about hugboxes when your entire post was screaming about your own injustice and the world not conforming to your own world views
Lel.

>>9846849
It's not my fault you can't read, anon. Maybe you can get your tard wrangler to help you.

>>9846852
Why didn't you post your feels on LGBT where they belong?

>>9846854
Why don't you take your weak shitposts to /soc/ where they belong?

>>9846856
If I was going to slut it up I'd go to /soc/, what does that board have to do with shitposting? Wouldn't I want to go to s4s?

>>9846858
/soc/ is shitpost central, the sluts just add to the trashiness.
That said, >>>/trash/ is another good one, have fun.

>>9846861
Thanks for the tip! I think you'll enjoy the lgbt board a lot. Can you drop an email so we can talk about our experiences?

>>9846870
No can do, anon. Maybe you could post your Club Penguin ID?

>>9846872
I haven't been as active there, how about Neopets instead?

>>9846873
>>9846872
Just fuck already

>>9846947
Why high protein food?

>>9846951
I want to see this happen. Fill these feels threads with something good. Please.

>>9846961
So you can get swole instead of just fat.

>>9846966
What kind of high protein food?
Let me let you know that i'm too lazy for gym and that kinda stuff.

Gulls, I really want to be a proper contributor to my community and have at least a few really strong lolita friends but I'm really worried I'll just start bothering them if I interact too much. I'm pretty depressed sitting around being a lonlita most of the time...

>>9846969
Fuck I don't know. I basically live on NY steaks and beer but I also have the metabolism of a 10-year-old so I only weigh about 150 lbs at 5'10''.

>>9846970
How active is your comm? What sort of contributions were you thinking about?
Depending on your comm's dynamics and activity, you can help answering newbie questions (even if it's spoonfeeding; the veterans in the comm will more than likely be grateful), post about new brand releases, lucky packs or sales, share new media like articles or videos, etc.
Lolita comms are your place to share your love of the fashion with like minded people, after all, so go ahead and do that.

>>9847006
Well, I'll be there tomorrow night but not again until Saturday.

i just really need someone or something, a reason for improving, a job, a goal, anything. its just really really tough right now and i hate myelf more than i ever have and being alone and not going out is really paying a toll on me, not to mention my toxic family and shitty friends who dont try hanging out with me anymore. whats the point of everything ive done up until now, all the time invested studying and taking advanced courses all my life. all the time invested in friends and being there for them when they needed me. why isnt anyone here when i need them

Now read this because I relate to you very hard, everything just seems to hard and nothing has a point but I like to remind myself of this:

Imagine ten year old you and try to explain all of this to them. They won't care, it's just all big words to them and they don't understand. They don't understand a lot in the world but they kept going because that's just what you do. They couldn't wait to grow up and be a grown up and do grown up things. They don't care that every adult around them tells them 'Just you wait..." with a smug shit eating grin on their face. Ten year old you would rebuttal with "Just you wait!"

Whenever something bad happens and you know that it will, ten year old you would just want to get better as quick as possible so that they can get back to doing fun things. Focus on yourself just like you use to.

It's okay to be angry at the world, it's okay to get annoyed at others and how perfect they seem to have their lives, I've been there and am still there a lot of the times. It's the same at ten years old, you're angry that others are bigger, better, stronger, smarter and have nicer things than you. Those people are just the same shit eating smug fucks who whine about how bad they have it when they really have it all together.

You need to look at those people, the people who hurt you, the world that still hurts you and say "Just you wait." Ten year old you just wanted to be a hero, to do what they wanted and make themselves proud. Don't do it for yourself now, do it for the promises you made as a kid. Be the hero you wanted to be.

I didn’t want to start an entirely new Secret Santa thread since it’s April now, but I just got my gift from my grinch saver and I wanted to show them some love if they’re still around on /cgl. I’d pretty much accepted that i’d been double grinched so it was such a nice surprise to get my gift in the mail today! It’s absolutely wonderful and I’m so thankful for the grinch savers from the secret Santa! So thankyou so much EM from Aus or match #7020!!!!!

>>9847111

You actually did get 1 other clue from me...

Well that was a morose ending to some silly banter

>>9847153
it's pretty shitty to expect other people to fix your life for you

You are disgusting. Human body is a normal thing. I went to mixed onsen when I traveled to Japan and I'm used to nude beach so I don't have any problem with being naked. The ecounter with my ex roommate wasn't intentional, but we are adults so it wasn't a big problem.

>>9847696
It grosses me out a little. I mean I know it's not her fault and she's probably a good person despite that but it's just visceral.

DO NOT GO TO CONS ALONE! YOU WILL HAVE A BAD TIME! When you take a shuttle you will have to sit on the edge of the van while a huge group of friends will be talking and laughing. You find it difficult to find a seat at a panel since everyone will be friends or a boyfriend. A lot of events are meant for couples and groups of friends. No one will let you take their picture because they will think you are some creep who snuck into the con (normal people don't go to cons alone). Hotel Staff will ask you to move into a different room to make allow a group of FRIENDS to share a room. A youtuber will zoom in on you with their camera and make a joke about how you are a loner. Sachie will look at you with disgust.

>>9847767
>t. a guy

I went to a con alone last weekend and had a perfectly fine time.

>>9847767
I know, but finding a central europe group on /cgl/ is difficult.

one time I asked a Sailor Jupiter cosplayer to take a picture of her stepping on my back and she agreed. Then weeks later I was watching her stream on Twitch and she talked about that picture and said that I was a creep. Not sure if she was joking.

>>9847767
I've been going to cons alone for close to a decade and none of these have ever happened to me. Hell, this year I went alone and left with a handful of new friends.

Anyone watching this?

When you go to a convention alone it becomes impossible to ask someone for a picture. People go to cons with their friends. Famous cosplayers and youtubers are surrounded by other famous people. If you walk up to one all of their friends will stare you down and give you the look of "I'm super famous and you're a nobody who doesn't even have friends to go to cons with. Why should I take a picture with you? Go back to sending money to Patreon and not complaining when i don't send you any rewards." What's worse is they talk shit about you on their Youtube channel or Twitch streams.

>>9847784
Is that the new "Being meguca is suffering" anime?
If so, no.

>>9847789
Famous cosplayers and aspiring famous cosplayers are almost exclusively whoring themself out in cosplayer community, a good example of the former being yuzupyon who took to calling herself lingerie model instead of cosplayer at this point, living off lingerie shots

>>9847817
>yuzupyon
muh dick, thanks for mentioning her

>>9847824
I pray so you don't find unedited pics of her, especially without makeup.

Anyhow, she and her jew-nosed friend are probably the biggest bitches I ever had the displeasure of meeting in the cosplay community.

>>9847313
>>9847317
Is right, we really aren't that exciting.
I promise not to flake out atleast until I figure out who anon is though.

>>9847831
>>9847317
you're more interesting than most of the contents of these threads, e.g. r9k/anti-r9k reeing

>>9847836
r9k is our natural enemy and we must take every measure to keep these creeps out

>>9847849
/cgl/ is literally /r9k/'s sister.

>>9847829
Feel free to post pictures of yourself if you look better than her, my dick welcomes all cosplay thots

>>9847852
I don't think I gotta post lingerie shots to prove my character's not worse than someone else's

(besides, I'm a guy.)

>>9847851
Brothers and sisters are natural enemies. Like /r9k/ and /cgl/. Or /fa/ and /cgl/. Or /o/ and /cgl/. Or /cgl/ and /cgl/! Damn seagulls, they ruined /cgl/!

>>9847865
>Or /o/ and /cgl/
W-what did we do

>>9847865
You gulls sure are a contentious people.

>>9847872
You just made an enemy for life!

Grill cosplaying my favorite midlaner?

Oh shit, I could cosplay as Shadow Fiend and we could go together

>>9847479
Yeaah I didn't see the point in that. They probably wanted to make it interesting/didn't wanna force girls into it but it was just humiliating while the girls would have probably liked it more.

>>9847548
No one said there was only one idiot, retard.

I'm too used to be lonely so when I made cosplay friends I felt like it was a job to talk to them. I broke up with my cosplay boyfriend because it was too much work.

>>9847869
I would like to know, too. The seagulls I've met have all really liked my car.

It's misery porn. Not actual porn but people get their jollies off to girls being tragically bullied in this case almost to the point of rape and death in episode one.

>>9848010
Willie, get back to your groundskeeping.

Are there REALLY straight guys who pick up gay guys so they can fuck their ass?? Weird.

>>9848036
That doesn't sound nice.

Stop bullying innocent anime girls, people.

>>9848044
Blame Madoka for kicking off the putting bright and pretty magical girls through absolute misery,

>>9847940
I feel you. I'm decent at talking to people and can make friends but after a few weeks or months I just get bored of them and isolate myself cutting off all contact. I don't know why it happens.

>>9848045
Did nobody watch Sailor Stars? This has been a thing forever

>>9847784
I love it. The manga is a lot better in art style and general "feel", though.
Not enough people appreciate the "cute girls suffering and being forced to make morally ambiguous decisions" trope IMO.

>>9848036
Maybe some of us like this shit because we can relate to its themes and the feelings of hopelessness and despair.
Not everything has to be pornographic just because it's laid on thick.

>>9848060
Everyone forgets that Sailor Moon really wasn't that cute, especially towards the end and in the manga

>>9847481
You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in gorilla warfare, with a man who's the best! With a man trained to evade bans. To live out of his mother's basement. To post that would make a bogan puke

Idk I absolutely LOVED going with friends but sometimes I wish I had been alone so I could do gayer shit.

t. Male
For a girl it doesn't matter if you solo or group.

>>9847767
What if I'm in cosplay but don't have friends?

I'll be going to my first con in June in hopes of making some friends. I hope my cosplay will be good enough to spark interest.

>>9848186
It's very easy to talk to people in cosplay at a con. More so if your cosplay is well known and half decent.

>>9848187
I hope it's good enough. I'm really going full neurotic on this hoping it's going to work out.

It'll be Tanya from Youjo Senki. So I think that's really well known.

>>9848120
What kind of opportunities you mean though? I am currently in Japan but nothing's happening except from good shopping

>>9848189
It's recentish, and well known or not people love the military stuff. Should be ok. Hope you have fun!

>>9848191
I'm just scared people will think I'm a nazi sympathizer and avoid me.

>>9848194
If you're a girl no one will care at all. If you're a boy you have the potential crossplay shit people love. It's ok either way and shouldn't be a problem, I'd love to do that crossplay (male) sounds neato as fuck. What con are you going to?

>>9848043
HEY, not all traps are gay.

>>9848198
I'm a boy. I don't know whether to crossplay or genderbend. Neither of them I know how to do. I just think the character is cool.

I'll be going to madfest in Brisbane Australia if it's ready in time.

>>9848202
Crossplay is fucking fantastic and fun but my idea is more skirt related stuff. I don't know Aussie politics, I think you're alright either way.

>>9848205
I don't think people will care. It's just my anxiety running wild.

i actually have been thinking about it, might be time to actually go through with it, where are you wanting to teach?

>>9847250
i typed that last night while feeling at one of my worst lows ever, realistically I don't ever expect people to fix anything for me, people have failed me too many times for me to actually expect anything out of them. some of my ex's expected me to fix their life too so i know it doesnt work that way- you cant make someone else happy unless you yourself are content with who youve become. its just that being alone due to no job and no method of transportation makes it really difficult, especially when youve always been there for the people you considered friends but theyre not here when I need them. And by that I just mean going to get ice cream or watch a movie once or twice a month. Being an adult sucks and I know our priorities are our jobs and immediate families so I'm not delusional, I agree with you that having people rely on others in that form is toxic. I literally just want a few hours a month to socialize with friends
