here's my fav. when someone asks you who your cosplaying as follow similar example:

1)dress as some militaryish person
2)someone asks "who are you supposed to be?"
3) respond," I'm extra 324 from (pick anime title) episode (number or title) scene 5, i'm the one dieing in the backround on the right, want to see my cosplay?

Here's something I triple-dog-dare anyone to do...

Cosplay as "Nevada-tan", have some stage blood splattered on the costume, run around brandishing a box-knife, and scream "WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS, STAYS IN VEGAS!!!"

Seconded. Anyone who's been to a con before will dogpile you for doing this. I actually saw a con chairperson threaten to lynch anyone who tried to get the chant started.

Yep same here.

Or going down the hall singing " Oh I just can't wait to be King."

I'm just kidding dw.

The worst thing to do at a con:

Going around and finding ash's and tortuing there Pikachu. Pikachu Sacrifice. (Drop kicks it). Or is that a good thing.

I remember many years ago at my first Otakon, and I was watching Lain for the first time, and the fire alarm in the BCC went off. But this an extremely polite fire alarm which had reasonable level(not blaringly loud) beeps and strobing lights. Since this happened during one of those rave scenes in the beginning, no one really noticed the fire alarm going on...

Something bad I once said. A few years ago at an Anime Iowa cosplay, one of the guys comes out dressed as Zagato from Magic Knight Rayearth. The doorway he had to get through in order to make his way on stage was pretty narrow, a problem for him since he had the giant shoulder pads on. His frustration caused most of the audience to chuckle a lot, and something funny came to my mind. Unfortunatly, the feeling of humor had left everyone else's mind, so it was all bad timing when I shouted, "HEY! A LITTLE TOO EVIL?" I could feel everyone glare at me. I felt like a total ass.

Hmm. Sounds crazy enough to work.
