One one hand, as others have said already, there's nothing wrong with being a fan or even a big fan of something, but when you make being a fan a part of your entire life and/or personality, it's odd. I love lots of things, but I wouldn't have a wedding or other important event in my life revolve around one of them. On the other, if it doesn't really hurt anybody, let people enjoy it. Let them be "weirdos" or whatever. At least they have something to enjoy in life. A wedding is not a marriage. A Harry Potter themed wedding doesn't mean every day of their lives is Harry Potter themed. A wedding is just a party and if theming makes it even more fun for the couple then they should absolutely theme it. The only cautionary tale is it's a party you'll want to look back on and any theme can become cringe a decade later looking back. --- "Something's wrong!

Hell, wasn't that long ago that we saw it as odd if an adult still watched cartoons. I went to middle school in the early 2000s and got made fun of for watching Dragon Ball Z, lol. It's now more socially acceptable for adults to maintain interest in entertainment meant for kids. But essentially her comments are equivalent to poking fun at someone's foot fetish.

MangaBroski 03/09/24 2:27:37 PM #92:	While its not my taste, I generally wont neg on anyone engaging in nerdom with their own life in that way. However, making nerdom-themed high-profile events like weddings require a lot of effort to look good as opposed to tacky. Anyone can have a cheap wedding and people understand that weddings are expensive and people do what is within their means. Adding a fandom to that then risks a layer of just looking like a bad version of the theme. Like, if everyone at the Star Wars wedding looks like theyre an extra on set, thats going to be amazing. If everyone looks like they came out of a Spirit Halloween, its going to look like trash. Now, Ill judge adult Harry Potter fans for supporting the work of a living transphobic creator (When the artist is dead, theres less need to worry the death of the artist imo), but thats specific to the fandom. Otherwise, just have a good production value do youre doing anything fancier than a Halloween party. <cite>MangaBroski posted [p:979278563] in Miriam Mar...

It's odd to try to tell people to completely separate their hobbies and interests from their life. It's like mocking someone for theming their office. Are they interests or merely distractions from life? if someone is really into sonic the hedgehog i'm not going to laugh, if i see the bride coming out on roller blades dressed up like shadow while I Am All Of Me plays on speakers i am going to laugh my ass off because its silly. sorry --- Looks like this gamer's paradise has turned into a gamer's hell............................................... <cite>MarcyWarcy posted [p:979278703] in Miriam Mar...

Turducken 03/09/24 2:50:30 PM #100:	Honestly, I think anyone who goes with the stock church-and-here-comes-the-bride wedding is a bit 'weird'. Do something that showcases the people that're getting hitched's identities or interests or anything to make it a unique and memorable experience. Why do so many people get to what's supposed to be this special one-of-a-kind day in their lives and go "Y'know what? Let's do the exact same thing everybody else is doing." Boring. --- THE FIGHT WILL CONTINUE, AS LONG AS THE AMERICA INSIDE MY HEART IS STILL ALIVE <cite>Turducken posted [p:979278872] in Miriam Mar...
