5. Flirty mom

I was cosplaying a popular children’s show character. Buster from Arthur. A mom tried flirting with me in front of her child after taking the photo. “Whatcha doing later? Wanna grab a coffee?”

The worst I’ve seen? This guy fully walks up to this girl and cups her breast. He wanted to see if they were real.

EDIT: Here is a video of pictures me and other people took of my cosplay

6. Have some cake

Had small cake pieces with me for friends, carried it in an open plastic box in my hands. In the tram to the convention I met an older lady, we started talking about my costume and why all these funny looking people are here for and so on. While I explained it to her she was suddenly looking for something in her handbag, pulled out a small plastic spoon and helped herself with my cake while listening to me.

I was too confused to say anything and let her finish, I even jumped out of the tram a station earlier because I was worried about more cake being eaten. Weird story but looking back now I should have offered her more, I don’t know what it takes to make you eat a stranger’s cake in a tram without asking first if you can have some.
