What is so hard to grasp about "Ita, ita, ita..." or "Oh, Mana-sama! Please forgive this replica-chan, for she knows now what she does."

But, yeah...it's in the lolita tag because the artist draws gulls in the draw-thread, and most of those gulls tend to have tumblrs.

The text, especially the ita ita one was done because the damn artist herself thought the fellow seagull had a fantastic bitch face going on (or something like that, been a few draw threads). The drawn gull said it was fine and she loved it.

Let me tell you, no matter how fit you might be, police station jail in L.A.is not a place for cosplay. The other inmates, who I'm certain must be gang members, clearly thought I must be from some other unknown gang, and never seemed to trust my explanations.

She was probably wearing a replica, anon. That's why she looked like a weeb and couldn't venture to guess that the acronym you said might have anything to do with the print's name.

What kills me about stories like this is that parents are so hyper-protective of their kids these days that they would flip shit if a normie person got too close to one of their brats in public, but they have no qualms about sending their children up to a complete stranger as long as they're in a frilly princessu dress!

Actually, I think it's more the case of a group of individuals who are overhyping these figureheads and others getting tired of seeing the hype around them. Not that they have anything personally against them. Like >>8618971 anon mentioned with supercarly, I didn't mind her getting brought up because her videos are funny and on topic. But when anons felt the need to post EVERYTHING from her tumblr that wasn't cgl related (like that tumblr post about her kissing a girl in front of church goers or something) I thought that was a bit tryhard and I was annoyed at that point.

Oh and I wouldn't say a single newfag having a shitfit over drawanon for no good reason is comparable to the tired hypetrain around chinesegossip, hospitalchan, and the like.

After being into lolita for about 6 months, I did this to a girl at a con. She was wearing Angelic Pretty, a print I wasn't familiar with, and she was pretty young, like 16, so I guessed Bodyline. But she was sweet about correcting me, and we had a nice chat, and she added me on FB after. See how there's a nice way to handle these things?

I notice with people like that, it's more wishful thinking on their part than actually thinking you're a hooker because you happened to fit their exact fetish.

It's shitty and I'm sure it messes up someone's day but if it prevents me from being mobbed and those parents from re-enforcing bad habits with their kids I call it a win.

Weebs are the worst. The older ones seem to be stuck in the same early teenage mentality they had when they first discovered Glorious Nippon so they still think it's okay to scream and touch strangers without asking. I know a woman who turned 29 this year who still squeals when she sees something that reminds her of an anime and yelled something about being in a personal maid cafe and tried to lift up my skirt the first time she saw me in lolita. Of course lolitas wearing strange frilly clothes out in public could be considered immature as well but at least we're not screeching or touching anyone without permission (unless the lolita in question is also a weeb, in which case all bets are off).

I consider wearing (good) lolita in public to be different. I'm dressed well, my outfit it coordinated, I'm not misrepresentating the fashion, and I don't run around squaling and touching stranger's clothes without permission. Speaking of which, as I type this I am sitting in the dining hall and I see the ita weeb who grabbed my dress. She's got corset lacing drawn on her arm (too poor for hot topic arm warmers?) and is harassing the barista at the coffee counter in an annoying high pitched voice and making the type of expressions and emotions you'd expect from a 12 year old weeb. I don't think she recognizes me out of lolita though (im also not wearing false eyelashes/circle lenses right now) because she looked right at me and didn't react. Now she's singing the lucky star theme. Jesus wtf

I consider it to be different too, if only because the way we dress doesn't affect the people around us unlike the squealing of weebs who harass poor helpless baristas. But you know that whenever a self-identified lolita says something derogatory about the inappropriate behaviour of another person, someone is bound to come in with "Well you dress weird so you have no room to judge!!1"
Good thing she doesn't seem to recognise you, though. You don't want someone that obnoxious and oblivious clinging to you.

Wow do people really say that? That's shitty. I'm sure she's gonna recognize me the minute I put on circle lenses and false lashes again. Or wear something that vaugely resembles lolita. I like to wear casual cute a lot. Like a blouse or cutsew from a lolita brand with a normie suspender skirt or skater skirt. It looks cute and is less tiring to wear than lolita and also good for the hot weather down here.
