lau-ra-sau-rus:

i saw a lot of people wearing rasta/jamaican costumes last night including black dreadlocks attached to the hat

o rly? your costume is being jamaican

 see… my brother had the exact same reaction about the people in ponchos and sombreros and actually wanted to get into a fight about being Mexican as a costume. Then my uncle pointed out that people have been dressing up like native americans since the Boston tea party… where is the line drawn? I dressed up like a geisha 2 halloweens ago, what does that make me? What about the girls I saw out in Saris? Or the dudes wearing lumberjack costumes even…

It’s a real question, where is the line drawn?
