OK it was a horrible take on the phrase - give enough time to 1000 monkeys and they'll make the works of Shakespeare.

Oh I understood it as soon as I looked it up. But I've literally never heard of the infinite monkey theorem. It wasn't an issue with your description.

It's not role playing in the traditional sense because normally they don't follow the RP rules, it's more of a false pretense of RPGing to attempt to add credibility to playing dress up.
-
Not that there is anything with adults playing dress up, to each their own. Just don't pretend it is something that it is not. If you are going to play dress up for fun, own it.

Well, I don't know, I barely get dressed to live normal life, I don't want to do a bunch of other stuff and have to pretend at the same time.

Exactly - I suppose some will argue that the 501st is LARPing, because in general most people try to stay in character while interacting with the public. I don't consider it LARPing because i'm not running around fake shooting Luke.
I really dislike the term cosplay - just WTF... I guess Costuming was to hard of a word to spell.
