When you're waaaayyyyyy too into it

The 25-year-old, who sells cosplay merchandise, said: 'I want to be an elf, an angel and a fantasy being, my aim is to look inhuman, ethereal, graceful and delicate.

...

I consider myself trans-species

...



'I don't consider this an obsession, but in fantasy you have all of the hope, love, friendship and good feelings', he said.

Well, if I've learned anything from RPGs it's that WHFB Orks are based on English soccer hooligans, so he'd better steer clear of the UK

I can't express how hard it is to find a suitable human/elvish bathroom. :shock:

The eye colors make me wonder if this is a fake news story. Yes, the article mentions using contacts for years, but the pic of 10year old him with brown eyes does not match his pre-op pics of him with (natural?) blue eyes does not match his obvious elf-eye contacts, or post-op eye surgeries pics.

Aside from that, I am trying really hard to resist posting obvious anti-PC comments. :twisted:

Saw this on a newsfeed.

Folks, I realise that the Daily Mail may appear, to the uninitiated, to be a proper newspaper. It is in fact the only news source in the world so unreliable that even Wikipedia has it marked as an "unreliable source".

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/ ... or-website

The way you can tell a Daily Mail story is accurate is if it's corroborated by the Times, the Telegraph, the Guardian or the BBC. (Everything that's British, newsworthy, and true, appears in one of those sources.)

Come on, PnP, everybody knows to never let the facts get in the way of a good story.

If some dude wants to be an elf, fine, but don't come crying to me when you hit your level limit.

Considering there are human Barbies and at least one Cat Lady out there, there may as well be Elfs as well. If there aren't elf people already, then there soon will be.

Indeed, Ron. Holy smokes, Steve, that's subtitle worthy for the site.
