Is OTHER wrong in the post ? POST : Last weekend I was at a convention with some friends. I saw a particularly cool cosplayer and I (literally) pointed them out. You would have thought I raised a gun at the person for the way my friends reacted. They pushed my finger down and jumped all over for me for pointing, telling me how rude I was being. Now I understand that in a normal setting, pointing is rude because the person on the receiving end doesn't know if you are saying something mean about them. But if you are cosplaying at a convention, wouldn't it be expected to be pointed at? I was so taken aback by their reaction, that I really am worried that I was doing something wrong. Were my friends over-reacting or am I the asshole here?
