How do you not spill your spaghetti trying to speak to others at these events? Not necessarily women, just anyone at all. Whenever I go to one of these events, I feel like my place at the bottom, even among dweebs, is reinforced. Like, if I try to compliment a cosplayers outfit, I'm going to sound like a tard and they'll feel endangered by my presence. The best I can muster is a few seconds of small talk when buying something from a vendor.
Also, are you fuckers actually hooking up at these events? Is this a symptom of the normalfagification of anime, or were cosplay whores always like that?
