Me: “You know, Sweetie, I was thinking about cosplaying this time, but I have no idea who to go as.”

Girlfriend: “Okay, here’s the thing: we’re gonna need [quite long list of materials]. Here are a couple of links to arc reactor DIY tutorials. You stop shaving now so that your facial hair is long enough to be modelled. I will get you the Black Sabbath t-shirt he had in The Avengers…”
(I think I got really lucky meeting this girl!)
