Dear people who keep asking me where I buy my costumes -

BUY THEM AT THE FABRIC STORE. SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED.

even with the typo THIS IS ABOUT THE MOST PERFECT POST I HAVE EVER SEEN.

In fact, for any of my costumes which I didn't buy, MAY I USE THIS ANSWER ON PEOPLE, PLEASE?

I'm so angry I forgot to spell check

YES. YES YOU MAY. I am getting sick of these teenagers with their instant gratification cosplay.

Even worse are they one that go ''Oh I tried to sew once and I sucked at it, so I will but all my stuff!''
YEAH WE ALL SUCKED OUR FIRST TIME. PRACTICE. FFFFFFFFFFF

Remeber when getting a wig off of ebay was
1. Hard to find in the first place
2. probably a piece of shit party wig
No you can just type in the character name and BAM. ITS THERE. which I admittedly do love but the overall effort of new cosplayers is going way down.

$25? WHAT. Good lord that that is I don't even.
Where these kids learned the value of a dollar is beyond me.

Someone should start something on ebay or at an artist alley that hass like, dark plastic bags that say something like 'Ciel Phantomhive cosplay' with a picture then
'Some assembly required'
and in the bag would be all the fabric, thread, notions, and patterns they need.

while I do like buying pre-made things (a whole twice!) and completely fail at sewing myself... Your post is eternal motto!!

God, I want to use that response on people. I don't get it a lot, since I do more obscure stuff most of the time, but when I do? I want to punch people. :|
