In honor of one of my favorite sites, Go Fug Yourself, and just because it’s Friday, I thought I’d do a Comic Con spin off called Go Frak Yourself (thank you Kyle for that amazing name).
Now, let’s have a look see at what this fellow is wearing. This is what I like to imagine he was thinking while assembling his outfit in the morning:
Okay, have I got enough feathers to outfit an entire flock of birds? Check! I’m not sure that this outfit is QUITE revealing enough so why don’t I just fasten my loincloth right up at my hip so I can give a little leg. Yes… yes… it’s all coming together! Ronaldo (don’t ask me why that name popped into mind), you’ve still got it, you old dog! But wait, maybe that leg is too bare. It really needs something. I know, I’ve still got some leftover feathers! Why don’t I fashion a LEG BAND?? NO ONE WILL EXPECT IT!! I AM GENIUS!
And then his mother walked in: Ronaldo! What are you still doing here? I thought your Battleship friends were giving you a ride to the Comic Conference thing?
Ronaldo: That's Battlestar, mother! Haven't you seen the 58 posters I have lovingly framed on every square inch of my basement apartment? And no, my frakin' "friends" decided to go early to wait in line for the Twilight panel.
Mom: And you didn't want to go with them?! That Edward is such a charmer! You could have brought me back his autograph.
Ronaldo: Mother! Twilight is for losers! Gah!! Besides, I'm still putting the finishing touches on my costume.
Mom: Er, yes, I can see that. Dearest, are you aware that you look like an extra from that Xena show? ...Is that my favorite pashmina shawl around your naked waist?!
Ronaldo: Um, clearly I'm a nomadic tribesmen from a future generation of new Earth's human settlers post-Cylon war, hellooo! Geez, you don't know me at all! You've never understood who I am! I'm so moving out when I get a job! I don't need this judgmental crap from you anymore!
Mom: Ronaldo Clancy Blandersmith, Jr.!! How dare you talk to your mother that way?!
Ronaldo: Sorry, mother... I was just kidding about the moving out thing. Can you help me put on these feathery armbands?
Aaaaand scene. Originally, I was only going to write like a one-liner response, but I kinda got carried away.
So, not an extra from Apocalypto, then?
This guy was also at Dragon*Con 2008! He participated in Sunday night's Kilt Blowing and then the quite inebriated girls seated next to me asked if they could pet his fur. Naturally, he let them.
@Tillie - That is amazing and it is very easy to get carried away with this sort of thing...
@eris esoteric - Looks like one, doesn't he??
@RandomScraps - Did anyone ask him what he was?? I still can't figure it out...
