He was tired of dressing up as Professor Xavier for every SF Con.

A fellow took my photograph it cost one and three.
I said when it was done, “Is that supposed to be me?”
“You’ve properly mucked it up the only thing I can see is
My little stick of Blackpool Rock.”

Randomness of the situation? He was at a freakin con’. What do you expect?

Now if there were people in the background in tuxedos and police uniforms, then it would be totally WTF. As it is, it’s just total win.

I love this photo, but am slightly disturbed by some of the well-meaning comments on here. The assumption seems to be that the disabled person didn’t design or make the costume and wheelchair modifications themselves. That’s really patronising. I am a disabled person who is the process of designing and making a modified wheelchair for a parade – and NO-ONE will be helping me. So let’s pack in this ‘Aw bless, someone made a costume for da widdle disabled person so he can play too’. *VOMIT*

This photo is a total WIN.

It reminds me of a boy I saw at the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom a few years ago. He was in a wheel chair, dressed as a pirate, and his mom had made a cardboard pirate ship to encase the wheel chair. It was really cool! The kid was very pale, and it was obvious that he was ill. I was also dressed as a pirate that year, and told him his costume was WAY more cool than mine because he had a ship and I didn’t. The look on his face was priceless — pure joy. I later discovered that he WAS very ill, and that all the positive comments he received that night made him feel like a “normal” kid for the first time in a long time.

So, I agree with all the WIN comments. This costume photo is not “unrelated” — if you look at the lamp posts, you’ll see he is at Disneyland attending a Halloween party. Can I give extra *WIN* points for creativity? Oh, hell. I’ll just do it anyway.

UBER EPIC WIN.
