Josie and Cosplay

I finally found out what a cosplay is on Wikipedia!

Cosplay (コスプレ kosupure?), short for "costume play",[1] is a type of performance art in which participants don costumes and accessories to represent a specific character or idea. Cosplayers often interact to create a subculture centred around role play. A broader use of the term "cosplay" applies to any costumed role play in venues apart from the stage, regardless of the cultural context.

So, basically it's the adult way of saying, "We're playing house!  Care to join us?"

Cool!

There are seven stages of your life:

Stage 1) When you're a little kid and playing pretend and bounce houses and Chuck E. Cheese's is fun.
Stage 2) When you mimic the older kids and start to think that Elmo and Disney Princess and bounce houses and playing pretend is not fun and that you're too mature for Chuck E. Cheese's.
Stage 3) Teenage years, when everything that was fun in stage 1 is even funner now!  Except playing pretend is called cosplay.  It's just playing house, but FUNNER!
Stage 4) You grow up.  Now it's all about being cool and grown up and knowing everything.  Mocha frappucinos replace chocolate milk, shopping replaces cosplay, and sensibility replaces randomness.
Stage 5) You have kids and love to go through the stages with them and you almost kind of live it all over again.
Stage 6) You're either really crappy or wish you were back in stage 1.  You have grandkids now, and they love to see you imitate Lady Gaga.
Stage 7) If you are in heaven, you can stay in Stage 7 FOREVER!!!  WEE HEE HEE!!  But if you're in hell, you're stuck in stage negative 7 forever.  Sucks for you.

I'm just kidding!  Kidding!  Don't sue me!

The reason I'm always happy is because you only have one life to live and you never know when you're gonna die, so celebrate life and stop being sad. -Me
