  1. My wife @jlweiss educated me that the #DrWho costume photo I posted is a #BeautyAndTheBeast mashup. Note that the #Cyberman is holding a rose and wearing a tailcoat. #Dalek #DragonCon #DragonCon2023 #cosplay

  2. @xinit “HEEEEERE'S HELEN!”

    With her #OverlookHotel carpet-pattern #kaftan and axe, #DragonCon2023 #cosplayer Heather Miller mashed up #HelenRoper from #ThreesCompany and #StanleyKubrick's film adaptation of #StephenKing's “#TheShining.”

    Fun triple-entendre:
    • Stanley Kubrick directed “The Shining.”
    • The story was inspired by King’s 1974 visit to the #StanleyHotel in #EstesPark, Colorado.
    • And #MrsRoper’s long-suffering husband… was named Stanley.

  3. After co-presenter Tony Gowell invited a hundred #kaftan-bedecked #MrsRoper cosplayers to storm the #DragonCon2023 #Masquerade stage, the ladies confused #millennials and #GenwrationZ alike as they strutted through the #Atlanta #Hyatt and #Marriott to their appointed #PhotoShoot outside the #Hilton.

    #GinAndTonic from the #RegalBeagle was consumed and a sea of red wigs assembled on the steps.

    Then things got weird.

  10. I am officially coining the collective noun “a #kaftan of Mrs. Ropers”

    (PS: This was when the group was still gathering outside the Masquerade. The fully assembled kaftan was over 100 Helens strong.)

  11. This is #DragonCon in a nutshell, or rather in a box: the Kryptonian super-criminals General Zod, Ursa, and Non from #Superman and #SupermanII trapped in the Phantom Zone of a #Barbie doll box
