It can't be that bad. When I think of an anime convention, I always seem to conjure up mental images of many women dressed up as their favorite, scantily-clad anime character... *drifts off deep in thought*

Yeah, but what do you reckon the fat, socially-deprived male - to - fit young female ratio is for a western conference?

Cosplay, Bob?

Take pictures, so we may ridicule them when you get back.

Older than the Internet...or at least as old as Megatokyo, which is said to have weird effects on long time readers (good thing I quit over a year ago).

ooooooh man... I haven't laughed that hard in such a loooong time. That guys has got guts to go dressed around in that ****. That, or he has no friends. Really, what level of self loathing would you have to be to do that to yourself? Is he not enough of an outcast from society that he does that to himself?

And, anime convention. BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHASHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAH

*ahem* I mean, ummm have fun. And take pictures of the hot cosplay women, and the freaks so we can ridicule and whatnot.

I go to ComicCon every year, since it's less then an hour from here...

Frankly I just try to tune out the cosplay people. The vast majority are hopeless. The only reason I'd be caught dead there frankly is because if you want to get ahold of a good artist to draw you something, that's how you do it.

Back in my anime days (a few years ago)I recall pictures of a couple of less-than-georgous-ladys (being polite) dressed as the dirty pair.......

It's always worth going because there's always a chance you'll see Man Faye.

ok, I'm back.
and...
hold it, just a second!

(http://pr4y.free.fr/images/sailorbubba.jpg)

that guy, I want this to sink in, I saw that guy, not someone like him, that, guy, I was in the building that picture was taken in, I spent the majority of time there, WOW!
he got a good laugh from most of the people.

it was prety fun, there were a lot of hot to reasonably atractive, to 'cute in a nerdy sort of way' girls, a few of my sister's freinds were particularly hot (unfortunately they were the 'artists' of here group and didn't mingle umungst the commeners much)

on the other hand there were a number of, 'oh. my. god. ... that's not a woman, THATS NOT A WOOOMAAAN!!!' moments.

oh, and I bought some swords. :nod:

Some anime is all right, I used to watch some and have a friend who is really into it. 



But if you ever show those pictures again, you will NOT wake up the following morning...Are we clear?
