That thing is freakin’ SICK! Angela and I briefly discussed how difficult it must be to design something like that. I kept thinking to myself how much of a pain it would be to have to use the bathroom.

Unfortunately, I missed Otakon in Baltimore this year and Comicon in San Diego. In fact, I’ve missed everything because I’m…what’s the word I’m looking for?…lazy. Unless you’re a really hot chick wearing a really sexy outfit the odds are that you’ll probably end up dressing up as a fat Link from the Legend of Zelda video games or, even worse, you might try to use your heft to your advantage and dress up as Tiny from G-Force: Battle of the Planets/Kagaku ninja tai Gatchaman.

Ugh. Maybe I should stop…
