“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Ed get's his nerd on
Ok which is weirder, that I'm mildly aroused by this cute cosplay chick in a Peter Dinklage/Tyrian Lannister mask and sporting a "Hodor" tank, or that I would probably fit in at Comicon way better than I should?
Yeah, it's is an amalgam of "costume" and "play". But for the participants, it 's generally more than just dressing up....it's practically a fetish, though usually but not always, non-sexual.
There are themed conventions such as ComiCon, WonderCon, Anime, DragonCon, and the Star Trek Conventions, to name a few of the biggest ones, where "enthusiasts", to describe them kindly, dress up as their favorite comic-book, cartoon, or sci-fi characters.

Thanks, Ed.
I've learned something.
