They won't care. He's either gay, a furry, or both, so he's "one of the good ones." Just like Damian Mills or one of many other such examples.

I see your point, but people would be pissed about "shrinkflation".

I wish people could control themselves without resorting to that since I am not unhappy getting two meals out of a resturant plate, but I think youre right that it would help a lot of people get into the right habit. It is just a shame you know resturants would start charging the prices they do now for more reasonable portions. I can't imagine the US goverenment would even seriously discourage that.

But hey, like the other anon said, maybe it would make people think twice about eating out. The prices as they are now definitely have made me eat at home more often.

Whining about what? Talk about literal projection. The fact that you declare someone running their own business as "rich" only proves that 1) you're a loser, 2) you're lazy, 3) you're an actual moron, and 4) you'll never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever be rich in anything unless and until you wise up.

I was wondering if I ever make a cosplay, I firstly understand what makes it bad. Even if I dress properly, make up, good wig, I feel like it would look bad anyway. I was wondering if it is something else, like face structure or just being ugly. Also not talking about cosplays that don't match body build or those that want to look bad ironically.

Dear /cgl/, I need posing advice.
To provide context: me (male) and my friend (female) are going to con to cosplay as characters from Needy Girl Overdose (picrelated). We have similar heights and builds. The question is: for the love of gods, how are we supposed to pose for photos and stuff? We just have no ideas, heads empty.
Pls help
>>
do couples shit like heart hands, facing each other and hands intertwined, back to back with hands, one in front of the other from the side, etc. you can also get some ideas from fanart with both ame-chan and kangel next to each other. i would also recommend some solo poses too because not everyone will want you both together (or well, i would want some solo shots of each as a photographer)

props to you guys i like needy girl overdose and would take photos if i was at whatever con. all my big cons in my region are over besides comic con so i assume you're across the country or otherwise

Pose with your feet forward one behind the other, like you're walking an imaginary tightrope. This emphasizes the hips and lengthens the legs. Lolita wearers do this all the time.
Mirror mime pose with your palms against each other.
Kangel behind ame-chan, looking over her shoulder with her hand on ame's shoulder, neck, mouth or eyes depending on how aggressive you want tthe mood to be.
Holding both hands like in a folk dance, with one pair of arms pointing towards the camera and the other away

Is it normal for people to ask for pictures and immediately leave after?
Or is this another Switzerland specialty where everybody hates socializing?
OR is it because I'm male?
How do you even make friends at a con?

I went to a convention as Chainsaw Man last October and while over 20 people asked me for a pic, nobody actually stuck around or even made an attempt at small talk. I was hoping to meet people.

There's another convention coming up next month and I'm not sure if I wanna go get photographed and go back home all alone with no new contacts or friends again.

Strangers are just friends or rapists you haven't met yet. Figure out the ones you want around and you'll find yourself having a good time, if only for a night.

Speaking as a casual photographer, I lately feel awkward trying to do any kind of small talk, especially at a big con, because I don't want to hold them up. I will ask for contact info to see their stuff later or send them, what I have.

Films/tv shows that are based on cosplay/con culture or at least reference it in some way.

I felt that 2Kawaii4Comfort was (for better or worse) the most accurate description of going to a small con and having a bad time at it. It's a shame it ended on a cliffhanger.

ANIME: 2.5 Dimensional Seduction

Plot Summary: Okumura, the president of the school's manga club, claims to have no interest in real girls. He's your typical otaku, obsessed with a sexy (fictional) 2D manga character known as Lilliel. Then the new school year starts, and a real girl named Lilysa whose passion is cosplay joins the club.


This show JUST dropped its first episode a few days ago, but the manga has several chapters.

There was an episode of Psych that was about a bomb threat at a convention and took a lot of potshots at nipple-armor Batman but none of the cosplayers are cosplaying anything real.

Simpsons did this classic:

Your can go with the fake vampire teeth, OR you can try the thermoplastic teeth method a lot of power cosplayers use

>held at a hotel with 2 pools
>more ticket sales = will expand to also rent out local bowling alley arcade
>panels will be vetted by actual nerds, so you don't get "who is ash ketchum? what does yaoi mean?"
>r18 panels/merch allowed in separated area
>baggage storage
>hands-on cosplay panel tutorial where you actually make stuff
>cosplay repair area

lots more stuff under consideration. i'm financially prepared to eat the costs and pay for everything out of pocket and lose all the money if no one buys tickets, but i'd like to make this con fun and successful.

yes, when back then conventions were mostly just people gathering to watch anime together and that was it usually. cons are way more active now in terms of events and that’s what usually drives people to go

Does the novelty of someone's cosplay (i.e. it being a rarely done niche character for cosplaying or the cosplay was made in a unique way) improve your opinion of the cosplay much even if it's extremely amateurish or the person cosplaying is monstrously ugly (and the character isn't supposed to be)?

Are you retarded or something? Just because it looks bad relative to other cosplayers doesn't mean said cosplayer didn't try. I did my first cosplay a few days ago after spending WEEKS on it just for it to look like shit anyways. It was for a lack of skill and insight, of course.

Go fuck yourself you non-cosplaying faggot.

I'm gonna do my first cosplay soon but I'm having issues with my contacts, so here a few questions:

>I haven't been able to get them on, no matter what I do. I form a nice little cup, get my fingers nice and close to my eye lids, pull apart to create space to see a big ol eye ball, press the lens against the white area, but it doesn't stick. Tried turning it inside out and it still doesn't work

>The woman telling me these told me to keep the lenses in a special liquid. I'm doing that, but how exactly does maintenance work here? Like there's a tiny strand of hair at the bottom of my lens liquid cup that I keep a lens in, so do I gotta pour everything out and refill it with new lens liquid? Do I need to wash the lens after each failed attempt at getting it in or can I just dump it into the lens liquid cup?

>Once I actually manage to get them on, how hard is it to get them out?

Whatever you do, do not fall asleep with them on
Just make sure if you’re tired of wearing them or just tired in general make sure you take them out
>>
>>10923563
The only thing I have to add is to buy a cheap pack of dailies and practice daily. Clip your nails so you won't hurt your eyes while removing your contacts.
>>
>>10923563
Keep in mind that prescription contacts are made to fit your eyes, so any cosmetic you buy will not be an exact fit and could risk injuring your eye if you try to wear them for a long period.
>>
>>10926863
this isn't true, i have been wearing both kinds for years and have some that are identical to my prescription ones. circle lenses and cosmetic contacts used for cosplay have differing base curves and strengths just like a prescription. prescriptions aren't an exact fit or made for your specific eyes, they are sized the same as cosmetic ones. optometrists just pick the base curve and brand that will fit best, which is why you need to get them refitted if you change brands.
