Infected Ren Faires - nerd cringe but olde timey

[MY 405]

The problem is that her best friend has a boyfriend that will tag along. This dude is like a 5'6", 400lb, neckbearded pc gaming autist that sweats profusely, and complains about everything. Last year he was wanting to go as a sorcerer/wizard type thing. Had a big heavy hooded robe made. Then last minute changed his mind. Now he's a Sith lord. Hell, why not. He already thinks he's one in real life. Fuck it. All he does is put on a kylo ren looking mask with the robe. Then doesn't wear it because he can't breathe or complain, or eat those turkey drumsticks with it on. .....

Going to try to go on a different day than the Sith this time. Thank God he drove separately last time. I'd never have thought they'd allow star wars, but he insists that since it's "a long time ago in a galaxy far away", that the films take place during our medieval period and are therefore valid.

Fucking sperg.

The heavy breathing isn't part of the act...

Also, whenever I see that gimp pic of Phil I can't help but see this...

Would it make you feel any better if I told you that 'Sith' (properly pronounced 'shee' -- thanks there, George) is a Scots Gaelic word that means "fairy". Which in the Ren Fair circumstances would be more correct and I would pimp the shit out of sperg "Sith Lord" and just call him "The Lord of the Fairies" all day or something.

I think Ren Fairs are pretty cool. I've never ever seen a furry/cosplayer at one though. Then again, its been years since I've attended one.

Spoiler: Slightly OT Story About Barf

:powerlevel:My most vivid memory of the Ren Fair was when I used to perform for my local Ren Fair every year as one of the Maypole dancers. One year, I remember right before we were supposed to begin the dance I ended up getting eating too much raspberry snocone and barfing up with no warning. This triggered a chain reaction of other the dancers thowing up their snocones and it ended up being a rainbow of barf in the dirt. For some reason we thought this was more hilarious than disgusting and ended up doing the Maypole regardless of our upset stomachs.:powerlevel:

All in all, I only have good? memories of Ren Fairs.
Also you can get turkey legs at Ren Fairs. So that's a bonus.

To be fair, some of the chicks aren't bad looking. However, to find those chicks you have to wade through all the Wizards, Walruses and Whales.
