“Men Who Cosplay...on the Next MJM”

When guys do it, it’s creepy and sad, on the other hand though, when chicks do it, it’s sexy and hot, well that is unless the chick is shaped like the Kool-Aid man then she fits in with the guys.

When a chick dresses up as her favorite video game character or superhero it’s attractive, but when a dude busts out in some green tights and pointy ears claiming to be Link (Zelda), it’s just depressing...and scary.

I hope to God that these guys are doing this with the hopes of picking up chicks and not really pretending to be these people, because that’s just crazy. Now I’m not trying to crap in anyone’s toybox here, but the whole pretending to be someone else phase should have passed right around the time you found out Santa wasn’t real…not hating, just saying.  

Oh yeah, you dudes who like to wear makeup and dress in all black, I got news for you, you’re just playing dress up too. This is just another example of something the woman can do that guys can’t, so just deal with it and move on. You’re not scary and considering that there are a whole bunch of you butt turds walking around you’re not an individual and/or a rebel either, again not hating, just saying.

I don’t care if you’re a wannabe vampire, one of those so-called goth/emo people and/or even one of those insane clown posse followers, you’re just nuts. If you really want to wear makeup that’s fine, just go ask your mom for some pointers, because believe it or not there are more colors than just black and white, some of which may actually help with that milky white complexion of yours.

You guys just need to learn to talk to women, trust me they’ll appreciate a nice conversation with a well-dressed man more than they will speaking with someone who is dressed up like a Klingon speaking in some insane made-up language. Sure, you may come across a woman who finds it cute and adorable at first, but with time she will get annoyed and if you don’t knock it the frack off you will find all your action figures (aka dolls) in the microwave.

Okay men, and I use that term loosely, you need stop playing dress up and just appreciate the chicks who are just like the rest of us men...and lesbians.

There is nothing wrong with being a fan of a particular band, superhero, video game, etc. but you don’t need to revolve your life around it. Remember, these people get paid lots of money to do these things, you on the other hand, just look like a complete fool.

Now if it’s Halloween (or maybe even a convention) then have at it, let your freak flag fly high and proud, otherwise stay in doors with all that nonsense.
