Cosplay

From WhatPort80

Which would make sense if it wasn't for the fact that the man in the picture genuinely looks like Wario.

Cosplay is the least cool thing evar. As a hobby, it was first promulgated by the Japanese, who would dress up like certain anime, manga or video game characters. Eventually this cancer crossed the Pacific to the United States, where it was adopted by fat basement-dwelling, pedophiles , nerds, and sixteen year-old fangirls.

"Cosplayers," as members of the subculture call themselves, are all rabid attention seekers, spending countless hours crafting their outfits for the express purpose of winning meaningless awards (read: attention) at sundry conventions. A good many cosplayers also post seemingly endless photographs of themselves on LiveJournal, or else on their personal blogs or websites.

Furries vs. Cosplayers

For every epic win...

... there's a ton of fail.

Though frequently confused with furries, cosplayers adamantly maintain that the two share nothing in common. In this opinion, they are of course, entirely wrong.

Much like furries, cosplayers suffer from identity issues, in that they seek to escape the burden of their real-world personas by becoming something, anything other than who they really are. Similarly cosplayers will in the same disgusting manner as furries, often screw one another while wearing their absurd costumes. Members of both subcultures spend an inordinate amount of time involved in their "hobby," furthermore, including attending conventions and spending money on subculture-specific paraphernalia.

Except for the ones who are not 15 (which is the minority).

Women of cosplay

Most truly hot cosplay comes from asia, but even those are rare sightings. Compare for yourself...

Teh Rei

Friends dont let friends cosplay as sakura

Sometimes America does it better though

Men of cosplay

a weaboo male you typically see a cons.

The men of cosplay are a little less plentiful, but just as pathetic. Men cosplay because they enjoy pretending that they are a hero (Always from a final fantasy game) and not in fact a part-time employee at the local Sam Goodie.

Male cosplay consists of

Wanabe heroes (99% cosplay as Inuyasha, Naruto, Cloud, Squall, or Vash)
Weirdos that dress up like female characters (ones that really try tend to look better than the real girls)
Weaboos that just put on a skirt + cat ears, but dont shave or put on a wig
Furries
A Naruto headband only.
