    So I'm going to a Steampunk theme wedding in September, which means I have to get an outfit. I'm thinking of getting an outfit called, "Professor Babcock, Man of Science", which is this:

    The one I really wanted was this one, "J.T. Farnsworth, Business Tycoon", but the vest was discontinued:

    I'm basically torn between something extremely thematic, and something I could conceivably wear to something other than a theme wedding.

    You could get something simple and just add a bunch of steampunk doodads onto it that can be easily removed.

    If its steampunk, you'll want to add something adventurous and/or bio-mechanical to the outfit. If you can find and old medical elbow or knee brace you can spray it with brass-coloured spray paint then decorate it how you want. Or build one from scratch if you know how to use machine tools. Steam punk is like a cross between late 19th century, pirates and pop culture jungle explorers.

    You could use either of the outfits in the photos, you may want to add something trendy for the wedding, considering the theme. However the top outfit you might not have to, on its own it suits the theme well.

    6 pages and no one has commented on this? So many questions. What's the most depraved shit someone has let you do to them? I remember ToyToy sticking a trout in one womans vagina.

    I think 'Sack with the hairbrush on the passed out guy is pretty high up that list for most depraved on the board.

    I think if I was invited to a Steampunk themed wedding where guests are supposed to dress up, my response would be "Oh, looks like I'm not going."

    It's bizarre that there's a subculture that revolves around a step backward in technology.

    Vacuum tube computers for everyone!

    The grooms are a couple of friends of mine, so that's not really an option.

    And personally, I think the gentleman in the second pic I posted looks rather dapper; if I go with that one I'll just have to learn some Victorian era witticisms to go along with it.

    All this talk about "neck-beards" and the only image that keeps popping into my head is John Popper. I know he doesn't have the beard, but shit, it looks like he could fit the bill.

    I think if you're gonna do it, you might as well go all the way:

    And integrate a small steam engine into it somehow so everyone there is choking on coal smoke.

    That's a lot of effort; they're not that close of friends.

    I feel like a steampunk theme wedding is a perfectly acceptable reason to terminate a friendship.

    I don't get mushy about a lot of things, but the new kitten we picked up this morning is ridiculously cute (spoilered for size):

    I'm not into steampunk, though I appreciate the effort people put into it. It is at least a trend that is pleasing to the eye.

    I like the costume created by my favorite crafty geek blogger who writes Cake Wrecks and Epbot. She did a steampunk feminized Vader:
