xTrishaxLynnx Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Love the Dalek dress. I would totally dress up as my favorite characters. Who says that growing up means we can't still be silly and have fun? Lame people, that's who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 On Halloween. At a party maybe. Maybe I get weird about it because I know people who do it in like the street for no apparent event or reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oremoose Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I do too. And I would too. Why? Cuz it is FUN! just remember: "Fun comes in many Shapes and Sizes" - Anon. or "F- Freinds U- united in N- Nonsense" - Anon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) On Halloween. At a party maybe. Maybe I get weird about it because I know people who do it in like the street for no apparent event or reason. How about comic/sci-fi/anime conventions and expos, which is where most of those pictures you are seeing come from? Comicon in San Diego is an enormous event. And it doesn't even hold a candle to Comiket in Tokyo. Edited August 21, 2013 by Nihil Obstat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeteorShower Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Love the Dalek dress. Oh THAT'S what it is! I had been meaning to ask. Everything makes sense now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Claire, I wonder if part of this isn't just that at some point in about your 20's, you start to be able to have fun like a kid again. I know it didn't kick in with me until about that point... One of my friends suggested that I join a group from the local university who were going to a Renaissance Pleasure Faire. At first I was horrified... but we had a lot of fun putting together the costumes, and getting dressed to go. I know some people go over-the-top and kind of decide to live in their personae... but we were just having fun! And after the faire, we went out to dinner as a group (there were 8 of us), and we wore our Renaissance costumes. We selected a small restaurant that served nothing but roast beef... and when we walked into the restaurant, the waiter didn't bat an eyelash, but just did a deep bow and proceeded to seat us at a table near a window. (I am sure he figured, great free advertising!) He did insist that the member of our group who had a sword REMOVE it at the table, which was appropriate. ;) The management also made a point of having every member of the kitchen staff deliver one dish to the table... so they all had fun serving us. WE HAD A BLAST!!!!! (And AnneLine learned WHY upper class people had ladies maids... I couldn't get into or out of that thing by myself!!!! And I had to watch going through doorways or I got stuck! It was almost like going to an immersion experience in a different time period!!!!!! (I've never had the nerve to go to a Star Trek one.... but I loved going to one of the big exhibits when it was in a hotel I was staying in....) Bottom line... it's just FUN!!!!!!

FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 I love the Renaissance festival! I think some people who attend are a tad strange, but I don't mind the dressing up for that or comic con or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilllabettt Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 cosplay has a dark side, does it not. but overall, I think grown ups don't have enough pure wholesome playtime, and cosplay compensates for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
