* People who pull wagons full of merch through the convention hall on a Saturday
* People whose props or costumes take up twice the space as their bodies do.

Rando: "Excuse me! Are you a medic?"
Me: "Yes. Yes, I am."
R: "A real medic?"
M: (Puzzled) "Yeees?"
R: "Not a cosplay medic*?"
M: 馃挕 "No, I take care of people."
R: "Do you have a band aid? One of our friends cut their finger on some broken glass."
* Cosplay medics are gods and goddess that walk the convention floor with sewing supplies, fashion tape, hot glue guns and duct tape to help cosplayers make "emergency" repairs to their costumes.
