Wizards of the Coast is doing some kind of cosplay contest to promote the new Magic set coming out in a few weeks. Here are some entries and their descriptions



Forbidden tomes can do quite a lot to an individual. Such as drive them insane and ignite their latent planeswalker spark. Appolus is now a demon summoner with an insatiable thirst for dark knowledge



Dr Jace is the worst mime in Earth History.



Everything within the known universe breathes a tune of either healing or destruction. It is simply a matter of which you choose to dance to. I come from a long line of healers; I have yet to choose..



"I'm no more mad then anyone else... which begs the question, am I as sane as you? Or are you as mad as me? And which answer scares you more?" Been playing M:TG since Alpha, This would be a dream!!!



i am a truly evil and powerul wizard but i still love to PARTYYYYYY!!!!!



Kilren - The Last of the Goblin Fez Wearers



Meow-Ku is a vicious Cat Fire Mage. She'll burn ALL THE THINGS and then go play with ALL THE STRING



Wacky, quick to laugh, creative, and open to new experieces. An explorer who finds wonder in every glade and thicket, but who is not reluctant to punnish those that abuse nature. Distractable.



The Gates of Time are but a paved road for those that carry witt, spark and sword.



The name's Darius, a Planeswalker for hire. I work for the highest bidder and hunt other Planeswalkers for fun. My arsenal includes a magic calibrated blunderbuss, goggles, a dagger, traps and tricks.



An ironic and dutiful elf left in the wake of Chandra's destruction, he has made it his charge to prevent the plane from burning. He aspires to work at Chandra's side, in case of emergencies.



The intellect of a god. The tenacity of a devil.



Swagferno the Fierce has swagnetic powers that make ladies clothering burn off.

I know a man in his late 30s who makes 150k a year and who regularly wears a fedora with graphic tee, cargo shorts, and cheap scandals. Don't assume poor fashion sense is limited to the young and unemployed.

Pity the resolution's tiny - but the middle jacket is too small for him. Also hatwise, none of the brims remotely match his facial ratios, giving him that bobble head look in the second photo. He's appearing to be wearing oh-so-slightly too small clothing that further diminishes his height.

Point is, you don't have to be wearing clothes from the mid 20th century to either
A: look good, as the rules still apply to modern wear.
B: assert your masculinity or "class" as you fear dressing well in the 21st century makes you gay.

Plus just reading his profile - if by having a profile where you express not getting laid while announcing your gun and knife collection in the middle of a girl's toy isle makes you wonder why you're alone...

This is why shows like "How Do I Look?" and "What Not to Wear" are so gratifying, because instead of just having to cringe and armchair stylist these people, they actually get to go and throw away all their terrible clothes and force them to buy clothes that are appropriate for their lives and that fit well. And the haircut and make-over section is always a relief too, although most of them are irritatingly ungrateful, like "Oh, okay, yeah it looks nice... I guess..." when their new hairstyle is clearly more flattering than the last. There's also steps taken to improve their self-image, which is usually the underlying cause of their style problems.

Although most of the people in the photos in this thread have ugly personalities too, which is harder to fix. :reject: But I do enjoy a good your-suit-sucks breakdown.

The hands aren't shopped. It's similar lighting, those are always his hands and he holds the fingers together so they look similar but they aren't photoshopped as you can see small differences in shadows and finger positions. The blurriness is just the photos being slightly out of focus+bad lighting. The guy is a legit creep.

I think the pony on the T-Shirt is called "Fluttershy" - as for why it's in Chinese, it's quite possible the guy was aiming for Japanese (torrents for the Japanese dub of My Little Pony are bizarrely popular) and didn't know he'd gotten the wrong language (are there Chinese bronies though?)

That last picture definitely has the hand from the second to last photoshopped in, even if the rest are him actually touching the women.

I think the thing that bothers me the most is- if he's telling the truth on his profile- he potentially makes more money than I do. Granted, that could be $40k-50k in California or NYC for all I know, but still- somewhere, for some reason, this man receives $40k-50k a year for services rendered and he spends that money on My Little Pony, suits, and fedoras.

God, glomping. I'm only just now able to casually hug a friend while saying hello or goodbye, and I think it's because some of my weirder friends in middle and high school were into glomping and every hug felt like an attack. What a perverse form of affection.

This is the most offensive thing to me. I know parents who work their fingers to the bone, 40+ hours a week each without breaks, barely earning money, meanwhile neckbeard bronies have jobs where they can spend most of the day on the internet whining about their favorite cartoon and spend tons of disposable income on little toy ponies to jack off onto. That is why I didn't vote for Pony Romney.

Could I get a timeline as to when people will stop wearing pajama pants in public? I'm not a fascist, I can understand jumping into a pair of track pants/sweat pants if you need to just run out for a few things after wearing work clothes all day, but I thought we were over the pajama pants and slippers thing like ten years ago.

Imagine the way a very small child will sometimes run headlong at a beloved family member and launch themselves bodily into a hug, sometimes surprising the other person. It's cute when a little kid does it, right? Not so cute when you're talking about two adults, especially when the one doing the hugging is about 300 pounds and the one being hugged is about 105 dripping wet.

I'm not sure if it's intentional, but I think of Glomp! as the onomatopoeia for the noise it makes when they hit you and their fat's kinetic energy causes it to encase itself around the victim.

Come to the South where it's alive and well. Where probably as with many things we're about ten years behind the curve. We had local politicians trying to make it illegal not too long ago (it didn't go over too well):

I have done some research and, judging by this video, glomping involves anime nerds trying to kill each other, so I have to say that I'm in favor of it for societal reasons.
