Cosplay Caption Contest
 

- Session #1 -

Welcome, one and all, to the very first collection of entries in the Cosplay Caption Contest! This is my way of honoring all the special boys and girls who have contributed hilarious captions to a cause that's very near to my heart. I've never told this to anyone before, but when I was younger, my great-uncle Albert was tragically killed by a car full of teenagers dressed as the cast of Magic Knight Rayearth. Since then, I've made it one of my life goals to educate as many people as possible about the dangers of cosplay. The success of the CCC has played a huge part in me being able to work toward that goal, and I'm extremely thankful to all those who have contributed their time and captions to this great cause.

So please enjoy the following samples of people making fun of pasty nerds in ridiculous outfits. While you do, though, please remember the many lives that bad cosplay has taken, as well as the many lives we can save through continued mockery of such practices.
