Wow, the lame infests dA

The world is a very interesting place. And the longer I am on dA the more I realize that the world is growing.... dumber.

Allow me to explain. (And please forgive all long-windedness because I'm kind of zonked out)
I created, over the course of a week, a very pretty Kanna mirror prop. I then got a very good picture of it and even posted it as a deviation here on dA.
This has apparently led to a devolution of minds, as a girl almost immediately posted a comment asking how I got a mirror that looked like her own.
Not understanding what she meant (as I had posted how I made it in the description) I looked at her profile (as I am apt to do for those who comment on my things) and discovered a very pathetic thing.
A, I am assuming, young lady created a profile and is posting as thought to be Kanna of the Void from Inuyasha.
Assuming it was from a fanclub or just a dedicated fan I humored her and replied back that Naraku had given it to me from his bones when he created me. Referencing, of course, the fact I had used the mirror as a prop for my full Kanna cosplay.
The person proceeded to get snippy and responded that I wasn't Kanna, she was. Amused I proceeded to burst her bubble as gently as I could, while still laughing my rear off at the idea of actually being someone who would argue they are a fictional character created by someone else for a manga and anime.
Now, I'm normally a very patient person. I will tell you when you're being an idiot, but I will not often have a battle of wits with an unarmed person. But the fact this person came into my deviation and began this was too tempting. I explained that she wasn't a fictional character, and that it was silly to try to argue about it. Instead of fighting the fight she started, she brought her 'sister' in who apparently believes herself to be Kagura of the Wind.
This little.. incident was brought to a head when "Kagura" showed up and demanded I leave "Kanna" alone. I, of course, wondered why I had to leave a fictional character alone. "Kagura" proceeded to tell me she wasn't fictional, and oh, she knew Naraku too! Going so far as to post his dA account name.
I find it hilarious that the big bad evil guy of Inuyasha has a dA account, and amazing too. Isn't he still in Feudal Japan? *giggles*
Said "Kagura" then told me that I was uncreative and boring.
I've been laughing throughout the entire incident now, and honestly can't stop giggling. Now, trying to be civil about it, though not entirely able to be since my mind's filter is a little compromised by lack of sleep, amusement, and painkillers. I posted back that even if I was going to say I was someone I wasn't, I wouldn't say I was someone else's character. If I was going to say I was a character it would be a character of my own creation and ideas.
Now, I calmly and with many giggles posted an end to the conversation and was responded with the comment that I must just be too good to be bullied.
Confused, I had to think about five minutes on this. Where, in all of the comments, was I being bullied. Then it dawned on me.
I'd been flamed! *laughs* Very lamely, I might add. Apparently "Kanna" and "Kagura" were trying to bully me! *laughs*
All over a cosplay prop mirror. How silly is this?! *giggles* I seriously can't stop laughing over it. It's just too funny.

-stares- ...I think I had to pinch myself while reading this...

wh...what is this I don't even? D8 lol they were probably 12 year old girls. I'm proud that you confronted them---I would have been too blown away by the fact that they thought they were Kanna and Kagura oAo;

this is what happen when people LARP to much. their mind warp into another dimension. hahaha too funny. if they are Kanna and Kagura then i'm the all mighty oh wait I can't say the name else some douche bag will show up say "NO! i'm the real! [insert random anime character name]" LMAO! oh man... those people will get beat up for LARP 24/7. I dress up as character to represent them and that they are cool I would never act as them unless I was asked to for a skit or a short fan film LMAO! did you tell them to get a real life? because if they are really thinking about who they are. well their life time is counted as far as the Eps of that anime goes. 1 eps is equal to 1 day irl LMAO! so if this anime series as 200 eps. well sorry you got 200 days to live LMAO!

Oh, LARP has nothing to do with it. I actually have a good idea of what this is. It's called not being creative enough to handle real life. These are the kids I actually worry about getting into drugs and the like. Because they would be the ones to get into it just because they don't know how to handle real life.

The bad part, I know what's wrong with this kind of kid. I used to play with one named Robbie who insisted he was a robot. I was blown away at first when I realized what they thought. I couldn't wrap my mind around being that distanced from reality. And I'm probably one of those people who you'd really expect to be like them because of what's happened in my life. But I was also taught to handle reality as it is by my family. And kids like this are just like those kids you worry about because they're insisting they're "Lord Allister Vladimir The Third" and goth themselves out.
The difference being if it's a character of your own design at least then the character is just an aspect of your own personality. But when you can't be creative enough for that, then you should be worried about.

Well I RP, a lot, and I love to game in all forms of it. And in a setting where it's appropriate, this kind of thing isn't so bad.
When you're cosplaying and acting as your character it's one thing. But when you're trying to insist outside of the game area that you're someone else's character it's little more than a desperate cry for help.
I'm obsessive, but I'm also grounded in reality to know my cosplaying is a hobby. Just like my writing, gaming, drawing, and everything else I do to temporarily get away from life.
