I'd rather not pay $40 to hang around with a bunch of weird-beards in cheeto-stained Sailor Moon t-shirts, arguing in Klingon over whether Mike or Joel was better while dueling with plastic lightsabers.
And I just have a weird issue with women wearing corsets. it just seems kind of strange that women have taken back up this thing that for years was used to constrain and manipulate women and are now sporting it as something cool and trendy. I guess I just see it as being sort of like a black person wearing slave manacles as a fashion statement.
then again, I'm crazy, so whatever.
But still. I wouldn't pay $40 for THAT.
Unless I was issued a paintball gun and free reign.

Hell, I'd pay *$400* for THAT opportunity...
