Pikachu Girl and the Romantic Proposal

If you’re a video game/anime/cosplay geek, this is how you know you have found the right girl: Her idea of a romantic setting for a marriage proposal is Anime Weekend Atlanta. Belle Starenchak, better known as Pikachu Girl, or “PikaBelleChu” is exactly such a girl, and is actually in the Guinness Book of World Records for her Pokemon collection. This tear-jerking proposal by her boyfriend was caught on tape for all of us to enjoy [Joystiq via Geekologie]:

Why is it when we get dressed up in our Raichu outfits people yell, “Hey dork, catch this!” and throw things at us?
