My Daughter was watching the Disney channel the other day and there were two.. two consecutive kid-sitcoms with LARPing as the key plot device. The world is getting dorkier by the minute these days.

 

[funnymouth]

[mattdus]

If larp is mainstream then I dont want to be.

 

[Einion]

Impressive stuff! Jesus, just the idea of trying that without glue gives me the heebie jeebies.

I wouldn't say it out-weirds us though.

Yeah, I tend to agree, but it makes for a sexier thread title! LOL

My god, that's amazing! And like Einion I get anxious just thinking of doing it without glue. Kind of reminds me of this:

Very ambitious! But I'm sorry there's something with LARP outfits and bright sunshine that just doesn't work. Looks better towards the evening... probably with a bit of fog too..

And if the viewer is wearing sunglasses, and has a bit of astigmatism.....

And has a seeing-eye dog.

The card building idea sans glue reminds me of the sand mandalas tibetan monks meticulously create and then destroy.

Why!? Why on earth would you spend two weeks making something so awesome, and then sweep it away like that? Off to Google.

its a form of meditation. its the journey, not the endpoint, that matters. its also a very symbolic gesture.
