When will Tumblr stop with their shit taste and pandering? edition

This cringe is painful with no limits
>>8999281
I saw this on liveleak as well as the aftercare video. Thought it might be fake because
>how could the person holding the drill not notice the hair getting tangled
>and how come that bitch wasn't screaming in agony, since hair isn't typically yanked out all at once like that and even waxing can hurt a lot of people
But maybe this is real. I also saw a video of some dumb korean kid "eating" a live firecracker and it exploding in his mouth. Obviously he lost some teeth if not some inside jaw tissue.

>>8999302
Her skin doesn't look red, not even in the after care...
There is some weird Chinese fetish about cutting one girl's hair to the point of shaving the whole head. This video resembles that stuff. Maybe is a fake to cater that shit
>>8999302
There is 3 videos and the 3rd one is her talking and ssying she isn't wearing a wig and there is a bruise.
>>8999302
It looks like she's just in shock when it happens.
Fuckin' horrifying.

Browsing dance covers and came across this
https://youtu.be/F8Fkw9zPT7M
>>8999766
To me this is the equivalent of someone singing a song but they get kind of bored and just half mumble the whole way through. Like they know the dance, clearly, but they're just flopping around randomly half the time.
Not really that cringy though. It was awkwardly long but that's about it.
>>8999766
Its cringe enough that it looks like she paused her parents' dance class to flail around. All these grown up looking so damn confused...
> That guy on the left bouncing happily along to the music though

>So my two friends and I asked our Ballroom Dance teacher if we can show everyone Jumpstyle. We would always do some sort of jumping before class.
Judging by the description from this video it's her own class. She has like two other videos of her in cosplay and dancing in that place.

And why does every woman in every picture (except that one Dr Who) have a glaring bitch face? Is their photographer that unpleasant a person?
And what's with the bizarre rants about men being anti-cosplay?

this girl's page is cringy as fuck but the fact that she needed to use a fucking ~meme generator~ to make image macros was the worst thing i'd seen all day.
>>9000223
no anon this is someone with no actual dance skill. it doesn't take all that much to actually memorize moves, but the floppy unclean movements are really telling.

I ain't even gunna comment about her personally, but put aside that selling this entire costume for $107? She bought the costume for way less than $100 on taobao, she's nuts for trying to charge that much when it's cheaper on TB.
https://youtu.be/VZo_Xnn0mHE
>>9002760
Oh god she stated some Cosplay is for everyone meme thing. She can't even pull her wig down enough to hide her wigcap half the time. Her Queen Serenity is frightful to say the least
>>9003487
this isn't even a CMV?? its literally just softcore porn with wigs.
>>9003487
They all look so awkward and uncomfortable.
>>9003462
She's probably counting in the shipping as well because no way $7.75 is going to cover everything she's offering.

>>9001149
Good find, I can't even finish reading this article, it's written so fucking annoyingly holy shit. The author is the type of person that thinks the Big Bang Theory is an accurate portrayal of ~nerd culture~ and the man-hating part is just the cherry on top.
>>9001163
Yup I'm sure an American woman in the 1940's was the very first person to dress in costume ever, and she was the one who started the entire concept of public costuming, and only after a visiting Japanese journalist wrote about it in the 1980's that cosplaying began in Japan. That's the timeline that this article reports.

Is it bad that I actually almost liked her in that one? It started edgy like a teen that's trying to be cool but by the end she actually showed a glimmer of personality.
>>9003487
I can't help but think that those girls probably just are lesbians, but too closeted to just say "hey, I'd like to make out with you", and so they have to shoot this horrible video to have an excuse for senseless kissing.
https://youtu.be/tDHCaCurBQs
>>9004679
The ones that do videos like these are actually usually a couple. I would say more bicurious than lesbian though, since they end up dating men after.
http://youtu.be/Qp5hRoU9HgQ
Why is nobody talking about this? Her intro video was even more cringey (couldn't find it though)
Worst part is that she's actually a good singer...
>>9001452
almost looks like chamydia chan's child or something
>>9005758
I am so happy she was part of eurovision, it was hilarious to find a weeb in it again. Anyone remember when denmark or something had a j rock guy presenting their votes?
>>9005803
I try not to, to be honest.
I'm half tempted to throw a vote her way for the unbrindled raw emotion that whole thing made me feel. I think it was the £3 striped OTKs and platform converse that did it for me.

This will never cease to make me cringe

These kinds of things on tumblr mentally tire me. I can feel myself just getting tired af looking at this shit.
>>9005758
Compared to the other costumes there were on eurovision, this doesn't seem overly eccentric to be worth talking about.
>>8999766
She looks like some random weeaboo who went to a real dance class and asked if she could perform this dance she learned from a YouTube video in her room. The people in the back are judging her deeply and probably want to get back to class.

I don't agree with trolling. But come on you have to have some thick skin? If a single word sets you off cosplay ain't for you.

Saw eurovision at a con, it was kind of hilarious because everyone just sort of adopted Germany as their second nation when it was revealed she was a weeaboo lmao.
Also, if I remember correctly, the outfit and stage number was designed *for* her, supposedly by someone who can hardly be called an expert on jfash.
>>9006032
>>9006016
That's Yohio, former singer of Seremedy and runner up in Swedens outtakes in 2014. He got the people's votes, but lost out on the international jury votes if I remember correctly. Which was why he was downgraded to presenting the score instead of representing Sweden.
His song was named Heartbreak Hotel and is actually pretty alright.

>>9007455
Yeah, posting this in a thread like this is just bad taste. I don't even think it's even really a "tutorial", it's just raising awareness about her condition . If anything it's quite impressive how she was able to cover it up so well. The worst part of her make-up is probably the eyeliner but she didn't even do that herself so?
>>9006978

I sat through the whole thing. It's... alright. Awkward though due to the weird combination of anime and western cartoon style. Definitely got irked from all the typical anime tropes (falling over, ". . .", sweatdrops and angry-vein marks)

Went and looked, she seemed to ask $580 for both, wigs and ears excluded. So if the new girl selling them includes the wigs they won't be ripping anyone off. Kind of shitty not to credit, though.

the song is actually really good and seems to be really good produced. Why did it rank so badly though?
>>9007455
In difference to being fat, not self aware or a lazy fuck in costume making, this is nothing she could possibly influence or get out of. Nothing to cringe over here, she seems like a level headed person.
>>9008871
I used to go to school with a girl who used to steal makeup and stuff by hiding it in her fat folds. She reminds me of the one in the video, but this one has better makeup skills and is slightly thinner.
It made me do a double take though.
>>9008801
>puttomyuwo
>>9009900
>steal makeup and stuff by hiding it in her fat folds
Holy shit, that made me laugh so hard. I knew someone who used to put stuff in her cleavage or bra, but that is some next level thievery. Both amazing and horrifying.
>>9009545
The new girl is only including a wig for one of the costumes.
But to charge $20 more for both costumes with only one while the original included both wigs and was $20 less seems like a dick move.
Not to mention that means they were used by 2 people prior on both costumes..
>>9008801
he keeps saying "brand name" instead of just "brand" and it makes me want to shit
also both of their accents are fucking stupid
>>9007790
Well, her song is called Ghost. Maybe that's the point.
>>9009879
Might just be too western, niche pop music for the contest. They've placed low with cool songs like that before, and France placed last with a pop-club song a few years back. I liked this, but it's probably better suited for a more indie scene. Also, the stage number was a goddamn clusterfuck. Performance is like half the score in Eurovision.

It doesn't matter, like you said, it's been worn by two different people (probably a few times, too), so to not reduce the price is shit.
>>9010507
Nah, I can see why anon posted it. It's not full-on cringe, but it's still "look at me I'm special with an AU outfit lol".
>>8999260
"This was a while ago, but I just stumbled across some photos from the day in question so I felt the need to go off on someone.
I attended my first out-of-state convention with a couple of my friends, while also wearing lolita for the first time a while ago (I won’t name the con or the people). I’m poor as shit, so I’m lucky enough to be able to afford things from bodyline, so that’s what I got. For months I scoured the internet for “things not to do with lolita” or “proper lolita techniques” as to not look like a fool or be compared to one of those bad lolita blog posts or smth. The picture above is of me the first time I wore it. I went to the lolita meetup that our local lolita facebook group was promoting with a few of my friends who were in maid Lolita outfits they had bought for the event. I was so excited to be a part of the community as it was my first experience! I had been looking forward to it for almost a year at that point.
Walking into the room, I saw a sea of Angelic Pretty, BTSSB, Lis Liza, ect. I don’t even want to think of the total cost of all the people’s outfits. I was impressed though, and super excited to see my favorite prints in person (my fav is cat tea party and there were 4 of them!!!!). I had grown out of my socially awkward stage a while before this so I introduced myself to a whole bunch of people, including the director of the facebook page and her husband.
>>9011135
It was the exact opposite of what I expected. They all could SMELL the bodyline on me. Every single person did that condescending up-down look thing and they literally scoffed “Oh, bodyline, alright then” and then turned to their comrades snickering. They didn’t even try to hide it. They spent the rest of the night completely ignoring me even tho I was being friendly and trying to join conversations politely without being intrusive. They hosted a few games that I joined in, but when I couldn’t name one dress maker/brand, they rolled their eyes. One women next to me even whispered, “obviously”. I spent months, close to a year, perfecting my Lolita and making sure it was coordinated and flowed nicely. I was so passionate about the community and wanted to be a part of it, but I was pushed away because I didn’t have a $400+ dress. I’m plus sized (us 14) so a lot of brand names don’t come in my size, so bodyline was great because they have sizes for me at the same price as the straight sizes!! It was degrading being flat out ignored by people who you thought you had a common bond with.
I took off my Lolita straight after and I wore regular clothes for the rest of the weekend. When I got home (my other friends got to their homes before I did) I already had a few messages from them telling me to check facebook. On the page, they were talking about me publically in a comment thread about the meetup.
“Did you see the bodyline chic?” “Such an embarrassment.” “Bodyline should be banned at meetups.” “She was trying so hard to fit in haha” “Why did she even show up?” “I felt ashamed for her.” “I hope she doesn’t come back”
>>9011138
I was fucking humiliated. I never felt so god damn ashamed and degraded in my life, and for what? Fuck you. Fuck you for thinking someone needs a fancy ass dress or petticoat or jsk to be a good Lolita. They obviously knew I was going to see them talking about me, they made a point to make sure I saw it so I wouldn’t dare show my face around them.
The community prides itself on being non-judgmental but I call complete and total bullshit. I was treated inferior and belittled verbally for not meeting their standards. Some people will probably be thinking that I shouldn’t let a few people bother me, and I agree. But it wasn’t a “few”. It was an entire room of 40 people flat out ignoring me for the pettiest reason and an entire facebook group degrading me.
So thanks, you ruined Lolita for me. That was over 2 years ago and I haven’t touched Lolita since then. I still love j-fashion and I adore the aesthetic but I’ll never participate ever again thanks to those petty elitists who made me feel like less of a human being for a god damn article of clothing. Again, fuck you."

Yeah that's complete bullshit. I wore lolita for the first time to a convention and it was a new Bodyline gothic piece and actually had people ask me what brand it was and couldn't believe it was Bodyline. I'd never felt more welcome and girls in legit brands gave me compliments on my coording.

That is a really nice and catchy song. Does Eurovision normally pass on music that isn't generic pop or ballads?
>>9011281
Eurovision elects a winner via each country voting so what it all comes down to is how much your country is hated during the year and how many allies you have.
Like the Eurovision after Russia went openly anti-gay they got booed a ton by the audience with gay pride flags everywhere but countries that were bros with Russia gave them top marks.
>not a eurofag either but loves Eurovision
I dunno what it is but France seems to get shat on every year and I think they only got 5 points or so for Twin Twin's performance.

no idea what comm this was, but it seems like a load of shit and lies. a lot of girls wear bodyline or offbrand to meets in my comm (about a third of the attendees usually?) and they make it work really well and nobody cares.
i've worn bodyline to my first meet as well, i looked like shit but got a lot of kind concrit and even compliments.

From what I can see, it's one of the shittier bodyline pieces and I'm assuming she "nyaaa'd" her way over to the ita table. Nobody even cares what brand you wear if it looks good. My guess is that she was both a raging weaboo and an ita.

I mean, if you're not even gonna try to be healthy, you shouldn't use the fact that you're bigger as an argument.
Also, this story sounds so made up it's painful to read. Some lolitas are rude, but most aren't to your face.
And like, who would expect someone to show up to their first meet in full brand? Like yes, someone might shit on you for it, but not a whole community.

kinda OT but whenever i think of Eurovision i always think of them

Eh, it's much better in the music video
The live version was kinda boring, and the performance wasn't anything special.
In eurovision, half the score is like the performance so
Here's the live one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjkqciwP034
Also, the background noise at 1:30 sounds pretty much identical to the noise used in Beyoncés run the world (or major lazer, pon the floor)
Sage for OT

This entire thead on lolita humor. Salty poorfags to butthurt special snowflakes who are oh so offended by talk to organ selling. Then you have the people who are butthurt that people are offended.
>>9011281
>>9011366
Well, I think there's a few things to this...
For one, it's just not a great stage show. Compare their stage show to some other things that year and it's just not memorable. Not as a strong number, and not as "this is strange and gimmicky".
Eurovision also premieres great vocal skill which... Twin Twin plain old does not posess. Of course, you can't win purely on vocalist prowess but not a fart's chance in hell you'll get anywhere without it.
As for politics... It's definitely not apolitical, but most people don't go "well, I live right next to Poland, so I guess I'll vote for them". It's really more about a shared cultural history. For example, the UK did GREAT pretty much straight until they started allowing people to sing in whatever language they wanted. Sweden is most likely going to *get* whatever it is norway is doing much more than they'll *get* some supposed croatian superstar. Sure, a lot of westerners might *get* Twin Twin, and it might be pretty good by our standards, but if you want a song to win you need something that's more universal.
Clearly, people still voted for Russia, they were just also very happy to vote for Ukraine, which had a very anti-russian song. Conchita Wurst would never have won if she wasn't also a huge gay icon in a time where we'rre happy to vote for anything to get under russias skin.
Other stuff that might've weighed in: starting position, the fact that France was not in the semis and thus people had only heard that once as opposed to once before. Eurovision is also not too keen about rappers.
Sage because OT as hell.
>>9011366
Ah yeah that year was really frustrating. I didn't think Russia's entry was great or anything, but i felt bad since it was two young (i think) girls who should have been having the experience of a lifetime and the audience booed the shit out of them. I get that it was in protest, but c'mon, booing at the eurovision isnt going to make Russia change their ways. And Conchita Wurst basically won as a 'solidarity' thing.

The Netherlands entry that year was a good song (not just by Eurovision standards) imo.

Same here. Every time I wore the bodyline carousel jsk at cons during my newb days, someone would ask if it was Baby. IDK how, it's the most notorious bodyline print ever, but hey.
Also wore replicas to cons and my first meetups when I started in lolita. I'm sure I was judged pretty hard by a few people, but I never ran into any of those problems and I guess a lot of people in my comm look up to me now!?
Also I've only seen one CTP in person, and that was at Otakon years ago. Still haven't seen another.
>>9011988
Mine was the terrible skull jsk so I was super excited to get such good comments on it. I guess it helped that I coorded it with a nice Taobao blouse and a lolita shop witch hat so it was more themed than outright baby's first gawffic look.
But yeah, if that dress can get compliments after it was rated one of Bodyline's worst prints, then there's no way that girl got harassed for hers. Her "maid lolita" friends on the other hand though..
>>9011135
>I wore Bodyline and my friends were in maid lolita
>I saw four people wearing CTP
While I believe there can be a comm that can be condescending to new lolitas who show up with questionable weeaboos...four people in CTP? Where was this and how formal was it for these girls to tote out their big guns? Or did she misidentify a print...
>>9011138
>I'm a 14US
This is the weakest part of her argument. Maybe I'm built different but I've always been a 14/16 and most shirred AP fits me, or I get it altered. She could easily find secondhand AP and get it altered for slightly above the price of ordering directly from Bodyline.
BODYLINE ISN'T EVEN THAT CHEAP ANYMORE WHY THE FUCK IS THIS STILL A MEME.
Seriously their quality isn't good yet people play Yandyman Rapeman's gouged prices plus that pricey shipping.
>>9011140
>community prides itself on being non-judgmental
Tbh, I've never seen this. True we'll treat newbies with kid gloves but I would judge somebody if they claimed to have been researching the fashion for awhile yet still show up looking bad. It's a hobby centered around fashion, so it's inherently shallow for that reason.
I'd believe her if her story was she got some shitty comments said about her and didn't have a good time. But a group of people shitting on my looks wouldn't stop me from loving my dresses, which is why I think for this girl it was less about the fashion and more about getting validation and being popular (evidently that didn't happen so she quit).
>>9011941
That's my comm, kill me

Just... I tried to comment on this and tell the butthurt girl to calm the fuck down, in a nice way. No one was like "HAHA! Stupid twats waiting for organs! Fuck them!!!!" This generation is so fucking babied and oversensitive. Yeah, it does suck to have to wait on a list for an organ. I get it. The op wasn't trying to rub salt in anyone's wounds. I wanna unjoin that stupid group.

Some comms are just shit. Was introducing a friend to lolita and they gave her shit to her face about wearing bodyline and told her to just save up for brand. It was comical how catty they were, but communities like that exist.
From my experience, a good community is only as good as the community leaders. If the leaders are cunts, the rest of the community members will be too.
The girl is definitely exaggerating in her story for baww points, but these things do happen.
The biggest lolcow I've seen in a long time complete with "cosplays" that are literally hot glue messes.

>>9012633
Forgot to mention, first pic is supposed to be Rose Quartz and this one is supposed to be Ren from DRAMAtical Murder... ALL her cosplays are like this.
>>9011140
> I haven’t touched Lolita since then. I still love j-fashion and I adore the aesthetic but I’ll never participate
Aka. 'lolita at heart'.
Also, another plus sized girl here grumbling about sizing. I fit AaTP easily (haven't bought other major brands, haven't been too interested in any other prints from them apart from DDs) and there are plenty of other options. Haenuli is affordable and comes in giant sizes, I'm only a M in their JSKs. Lolita is expensive, I only get $500 a fortnight and I put aside money all the time for more clothes, so fuck her for being a prissy little cunt just because she wants to reblog jfash for a reason.
Sorry for the blog post, I'm just angry. Happy to contribute to the cringe if you read it that way.

I wore bodyline to my first con too, anon! A wonderful cosplayer from Assassins Creed(?) actually said that she couldn't believe it was Bodyline while she was wearing a handmade ballgown.
>>9011755
I think you need to know the source for it to be cringe, and Ladybug is still niche, sort of.
>>9011941
There's that one ugly as sin TARDIS print that a girl in my comm has. I hate it so much and I may have accidentally insulted her when I said that I would never buy a fandom-related lolita dress (talking about the detective series from Haenuli that gives off serious SH vibes), while she was wearing the TARDIS dress. I just want a versatile wardrobe. If I insulted her then she deserves it, but I got some serious stink-eye for my comment.
>what is personal taste
>>9012633
Get your vendetta outta here, we're not allowed to post witch hunts.
>>9012614
Some comms are more catty than others, but even with catty comms the only way I can imagine a room full of 40 people to snub someone as one and then publicly talk shit about them afterwards is if they wore an obvious replica to a brand event where designers were present.
My comm has a reputation for being really snobby and bitchy and at our meets itas are, at the absolute worst, ignored or given unsolicited advice. Nobody is ever actually mean. Probably what happened in this case is that people were complimenting each other but not her and she saw this as overt rejection, and maybe one or two people were less than lyrical about BL. She is definitely making most of this shit up and projecting her insecurities all over other people. Good riddance to whatever comm she's talking about.
>>9012084
>I've always been a 14/16 and most shirred AP fits me,
Same anon. I'm around that size right now. Some of my dresses are more snug than I'd like, but I have plenty of brand options to go with. Most of my wardrobe is second hand with a smathering of first-hand pieces (MTO's, lucky packs, special sets and accessories). I used to wear a lot of Bodyline, but now I only really use them for shoes.
This notion that all brand is tiny and super expensive and everyone is an elitist brandwhore is quite old and has carried over from the days when the yen was strong against the dollar, sites had just started shipping overseas recently. Taobao was not a thing and In The Starlight was a popular indie brand. A lot of people made their stuff, and as brand was becoming more accessible (to those with the dough to cough up) it was easier to look down on people who wore, at the time, very cheap Bodyline.

I couldn't imagine 40 people snubbing her either. If the story is even remotely true it was just two or three people. I'm gonna be honest, I myself have snickered loudly to my friend when I saw a girl in a btssb skirt (no petti) and a pink party city bob wig so she'd get the fucking hint.
>>9008187
He's infamous in the swedish J-fashion comm for being a shitty brat, he's very hard to like. No wonder he's moving to glorious nippon.
>>9012128
Mine too. I'm glad to see that the people commenting are being pretty forward about this being a not so great idea.
I would recommend taking a look at her "Dr. WhoLita" pinterest board. It's got shit like this on it.
>>9012681
>vendetta
Not even that anon but I'd say it's pretty cringe to take a BL game character and make a bizarre belly dancing outfit for it. Which seems to be the theme for her, bellydance every costume.
>>9012704
calling vendetta. Salt belongs in the kitchen anon.
