So first of all, the HOPEFUL news: PAX was pretty fun. I mean, I forgot the expo floors closed at six, and everything somehow seemed to go by a lot faster than the first year I went, but I still got an autographed copy of the new MC Frontalot album, a used copy of
Uncharted, and some quality photos--plus a chance to hang out with my best friend, who got a job as an Enforcer. And now, the ANGST news, told the only way I know how to tell this kind of story...
>Decide to cosplay at PAX this year
>Spend 30-odd dollars and several months meticulously arranging a costume of Tim from
Braid>Brother decides at basically the last minute to wear his Luigi costume from Halloween 2008
>Nobody seems to recognize me, brother is getting pictures taken with him every five minutes
>Only people who've apparently heard of Tim recognize me only after I point it out to them, at which point they say I'm a little too tall
>One guy thinks I'm Marcus from Mega64, another one thinks I'm Light Yagami
