Pokemon Marriage Proposal

How else would one propose marriage to the woman with the world’s largest Pokemon collection? Especially if you met her at a Pokemon competition? JC Fletcher writes for Joystiq:

When Chris Herbert decided to pop the question to his girlfriend of three years, Belle Starenchak, he picked the most romantic place he could think of: Anime Weekend Atlanta, with both dressed as Pokemon. It … kind of makes sense for them.

Belle, or “PikaBelleChu,” is featured in the Guinness Book of World Records: Gamer Edition for her massive Pikachu memorabilia collection, and Herbert met her by staging a Pokemon auction. So while we might be tempted to laugh, it would seem that the pursuit of ‘em all is a major component of this couple’s lives.

    I remember her Encyclopedia Dramatica page.

    There’s stuff there that you do NOT want so see. *shudder*

    This kind of thing, cosplaying proposals, just makes me sad.

    I got two seconds before I had to vomit.

    Some fetishes are best left unexplored.
