How does /cgl/ feel about these so called "rules" by this stuck up weeaboo

>> No.6570263

tldr jesus christ
I got through the rules but couldn't even bother with the rest of it

I agree with most of it, honestly, but I would never admit that or tell someone breaking one of these "rules" that. I wouldn't really call them rules. More like guidelines you should try to follow. And if someone doesn't that's no skin off my back I don't really give much of a fuck, I just think that if you actually do this shit you'll just look better.

>> No.6570267

oh wow i remember this

she doesnt follow like any of her own rules, lol.

>> No.6570270

they actually sound very reasonable besides the one about crossplay and the one about not cosplaying super popular stuff is arguable. know your series, know what fits your body type, know how to handle your time, know that you'll have photos taken; all good ones

>> No.6570283

I skimmed, read the bolded parts. Agreed with everything except for the crossplay. I was amused that she just about directly said, "I find transexuals disgusting". It's one thing to say that it's hard to pull off an accurate costume, but 'disgusting' goes a little far.

Noticed a story where she said she told off another drow, which was really unfortunate. She could have bonded with that girl over their shared interest, but no.

I have a real hatred toward the idea of honesty over tact. I don't understand the point in going up to a landwhale and saying, "Wow, you're fat as fatass! Hit the gym, fatty LOL" or to go up to a smoker and saying, "Don't you know you're ruining your lungs???? THOSE ARE CANCER STICKS!"

Conventions are social events based around bringing together people with similar interests. The fact that people justify their rage when someone's having fun and not looking perfect by making up arbitrary rules for cosplay is hilarious. Costume play is for FUN IN COSTUME.

Yeah, you can be mad or whatever if someone's unhealthily fat or dressed offensively badly, but at the end of the day you have no say, and if you focus on that, gross people are going to have more fun than you. Save it for the bad cosplay threads where we can all laugh and have fun together about it.

There are some good pieces of advice if you want to look good or impress someone or win a contest, but trying to dictate that things must be this way or that way is silly. The most important thing is that you have fun, and if you can't even do that, what the hell are you going for?

This isn't entirely true.

The cases aren't from children who are breastfed by vegan/veg mothers. Those children thrive fine.

The problem happens when a clearly ill-informed vegan decides *not* to breastfeed and instead opts for some "vegan formula" she got from some wack-hut.

The girl died of an infection. The vitamin deficiency probably certainly contributed to her risk of infection, but the problem was that they didn't bother treating her when she developed pneumonia.

Before antibiotics pneumonia was highly lethal.

The baby was 12 mo. It's completely acceptable to breastfeed up to about twelve months (most parents introduce solid foods around 6 months).

So this little kiddo also wasn't getting fed enough, period. Mother probably wasn't feeding her or supplementing her with formula/solids when she couldn't breast feed.

So this kid also was faliure to thrive, as well.

It's sad because both of these conditions are SIMPLE to treat.

>> No.6570824

The rules seem like decent guidelines, but I agree, the crossplay rule is a bit too far. The playing character one is a little iffy, too. I'll be in character from time to time and pose for photos in character, but I won't ALWAYS be in character while in the costume.

Also that poor Drow girl she was discussing. The joke may have been funny, but when the girl doesn't realize she's being insulted, she shouldn't have gone out of her way to tell her all the things wrong with her costume.
My general rule of thumb for giving criticism, if someone is going to be critical of my costume skills, I'll be critical back, or if they specifically ask for constructive criticism.
If someone just wants to have fun and is complimenting me on my costume and how cool it is that we're from the same series, then cool! I'll probably say something similar. If they wanted to hang out with me, I'd let them down gently "I'm about to go do something, I can't really hang out right now, sorry" but there's no need to be so rude.

>If you’re 5’3″ and 300 lbs., you’re never going to pull off a Sailor Moon costume, no matter how fucking awesome the costume itself is. Stay within your body type and range.

So besides Ursula, the Wicked Witch of the Waste, and fat princess, what characters for a 5'3 300 pound girl does she have in mind? Does she not realize that most shows don't make -nice- anime characters that are overweight without making them into villains, completely unlikable, or ugly bullies? A person doesn't have to be the -exact- body type of any character to pull it off. Pic related. Is her costume really so horrible? Fuck no it's not. Obviously you don't pick a character who has a revealing outfit, but I see nothing wrong with picking characters who have conservative outfits that don't show off a lot.

>If you can’t emotionally or mentally pull off a character, don’t.

Just because people put on a costume doesn't mean they have to please -you- by being an actor or actress as well. Is it more fun when someone's in character? Sure, but they have no obligation to be.

>Don't crossplay

Cry moar, hinny. A man in a dress looks better than you do.

The problem with your argument is that most vegans aren't born vegan. They figured shit out later, probably in their teens, and switched.
To Koreans, dog is normal to eat. To Germans, a horse is normal to eat. To China, cats are normal to eat.
To a typical American, none of those things are normal. That's why someone would be bothered by it, despite regularly eating cow or pig.

And to a vegan, it's not that meat is abnormal; it's that they don't approve of its preparation.

Bad analogy.

If I was in Korea, and it was the norm to eat dog (it actually isn't, you prick, in modern times it's pretty low key, and many disapprove of it), and a friend had invited me to a bowl of dog soup, I would at least try it out of courtesy; a vegan would outright refuse to do so because custom and culture means nothing to them when compared to their self-importance.

I've eaten horse. I've eaten rabbit. It I was offered fried cricket, I'd have no problem with eating that either. I do not attach morality to my food, or demean the eating habits and food cultures of others.

Yeah, but human babies need a broad range of nutrients. Because they are omnivores. I have a bearded lizard that's currently on a vegan diet, because he is fully grown. But if you put a baby beardie on a diet like that, it will die. Baby humans need different nutrition than adult humans, too. Mothers who refuse to adequately supply their own bodies with the nutrients necessary for the health of their children should not breastfeed. Get a personal chicken, eat the eggs. It's a chicken's period, it's not hard labor for them to produce. And if it's your chicken, you won't have to worry about cruelty. But, if you won't eat animal products on principle, even for the health of your child, you are not fit to be a mother.

And no, I'm not trolling. I'm just sick of vegans applying their personal choices to their dependents. It's sickening.

The reason it's easier to get lamb is because overall lamb is more tender and viewed as "more tasty" (which isn't really the case, just depends on how you prepare it.) The other reason is because it's more economical to raise lamb. Sheep that are slaughtered years after they reach sexual maturity simply cost more considering the extra years you take feeding and caring for them. Why spend that money on something that eventually will become a product that is less desirable to the majority of your market?

Anyway, I think it's weird to think any kind of diet is superior to another. People eat what they want to eat. Who cares if one doesn't eat meat, or the other one doesn't eat orange foods? Anyone who says they're superior because of this clearly has issues.

I never got the pre-occupation with trying to emulate a character you're cosplaying outside of attempting to look like them physically. And even then I'm on the fence. Of course, I wouldn't wear a skimpy bikini, but if I like a character and the costume suits my tastes, skill and budget, I'll make it and wear it. I'm sorry, but the only time I get in character is when I'm on stage, maybe slightly in character for a photo. But I'm fucking 30, I don't run around acting like a damn cartoon character and see no reason to do so. I'm me in a costume, that's all. I don't feel it makes me any less of a cosplayer because of that. I just want to smack people with these mentalities who have been into this hobby for like 4 years and think they know everything.

So, there are a few points in her little list of cosplay commandments that I can agree with, but the further you read, the more you begin to understand that the shit she's posting isn't coming from the right place. She can be right in saying that satin is a shitty fabric or that a you should schedule working on your costume appropriately, but when she goes on about being in character and treating other people in character of "if everyone is doing FMA, you should do an early 90's anime that no one would recognize!" and you start to read everything else she writes, you discover that this is not a passionate cosplayer, eagerly encouraging people to be better cosplayers, she's some bitter bitch who thinks she's a hot shit alpha nerd.

Taking a lot at her other shit, including that nerd girl stereotypes list, it becomes immediately apparent that there is a story here. She started at the dumpy weeaboo girl who was stupidly energetic about dumb shit, and probably sprinkled her speech with with bad japanese. She looked like shit and stayed in that awkward teenager phase for a little too long, but when she finally grew out of it and lost a little weight and her jawline tightened up and she got a haircut that didn't make her look like she had down syndrome, she turned into a more confident person who now thinks she's the swan who blossomed from the ugly duckling.

Now she's that fucking snotty sort of bitch who thinks she has better taste in anime than you, and that she knows more about obscure shit that other people, and that she's just an all purpose sort of nerd because she larps and plays D&D and cosplays without realizing you can do many things and be terrible at all of them.

The fact that she's going around with such an undeserved sense of pride about all this shit is what makes me the most mad.

Most of what she has put in there is thinly veiled opinion. Nothing in there is relevant to her own activity or relationship with others. This tells me she has almost none, and really wants to be looked up to and admired. Unfortunately, that mindset typically means they just file any criticism under jealousy.

I feel it would be easy to ridicule her to her face under the guise of a normal conversation. Although, typically I try to reserve judgement until I actually meet a person.

For what it's worth, Satan, she's likely only saying no to crossplay because a boy who can pull off a girlish look gets more attention than a blotchy tart in a lousy drow costume.

She's also mistakenly presenting her opinion as a reasonable statement. She's got no good argument why men shouldn't crossplay, just that she thinks its icky and it's not right, but that it's okay for girls to crossplay bishie characters because she's a dumb bitch and she doesn't even pay attention to what she's saying. So much for her supposedly high IQ, huh?

For the uniformed who would be easily fooled by this info graphic there are a few things worth pointing out.

First, yes, humans are omnivores. As are all primates.

Second here are the problems with the info graphic and why it is trash:

-The generalized descriptions of "carnivore", "omnivore" and "herbivore" are highly mischaracteristic of a wide diversity of animals.
-Many actual "herbivores" would not fit the description of herbivores listed, for instance.

-Therefore the examples cited are simply too specific to accurately describe the categories listed. No indication of which taxinomic division each is serving an example of is offered.

-The same is true with all of the descriptions, really, it's full of blunt inaccuracies. Big cats and other carnivores chew with the temporalis muscle? Really?

-"End point" view of evolutionary outcomes is a silly way of looking at diets. Primates evolved from herbivorous ancestors. We also evolved the capacity to eat and digest meat. Being an omnivore is a huge evolutionary advantage.

-Some of the features listed are either redundant (jaw size, jaw joint) or simply incorrect ("herbivores have small mouths relative to heads", this is untrue of any of the new world monkeys, large grazers, etc).

-Where the hell do they come up with this description of an omnivore? Omnivore have no amylases in their saliva? Why small, sharp, shearing teeth if they are omnivorous? Don't even take my word for it. Fucking look up the jaws of various omnivores: pigs, bears, squirrels, etc.

-Ignores the fact that omnivorous behavior is, initially, a behavioral definition. So long as the physiology can account for and acquire energy from a secondary food source, the animal is technically omnivorous. This is non-controversial. Of course we will share features from our herbivorous heritage.

Sorry... just.. this is a horribly inaccurate piece of misinformation. We owe a lot of our success (and brain development) on calorie rich meats.
