So you're just, like, not going to shave your back, arms, legs, neck and face this week? Should free up some time for ya. I don't care what you go as, you win for the best avatar. There is no prize though. Sorry. It's thankless. I'm going to be shegirl.
I think a performance piece involving balloon boy would be cool. Hide in a box on the street and let a shitload of balloons fly away.
I'm thinking of Quailman, Patrick Bateman when he kills Jared Leto and wears a raincoat over his suit, and, I think that's it. Though I kind of want to do some sort of pun on the verizon guy - can you beer me now? Not sure how to pull it off though.
I will get a picture of this once he wears the costume on Halloween, but my buddy works down in ATL and is going to a house party at UGA as Tim Tebow. I'm 100% stealing his idea. So far he has: - Eye black strips with "Wyndham" (the guy who gave him his concussion) written backwards on the black. - Head wrapped with medical tape - Fake bible, with flask inside (Shawkshank Redemption style) - Will throw jump passes with beer when he gives it to friends - Chastity ring - Jean shorts with #15 and orange stripe painted on - Florida t-shirt, ripped open, with superman t-shirt underneath. - WWJD bracelets - Spiked hair - Football - Memorizing "The Promise" (http://deadspin.com/5180855/tim-tebows- ... ast-us-all)
I feel like this will be a common costume this year, but I'm going as Kanye West and will go around Taylor-Swift-ing people all night. Not a great costume, but makes for easy introductions at bars.
I'm too lazy to dress up this year. Instead I'll just dress normal (poorly) and hit up the bar. If anyone asks I'll tell them the whole point of Halloween is to be something you're not every other day, that's why I'm dressed up as a happy person without cancer.
Last year I was a hipster that got in a bike wreck. All the accessories, including some very well done blood by a female art friend. Ironically, two days ago I actually wrecked my bike and have legitimate bloody raspberries on my arms and knees. But I'm not doing that shit again. Instead, I'm just going as Papa Smurf: (not me)
My roommate just came up with the "Head Coach," and frankly I'm sort of jealous. He's dressing like a sports coach, but his clipboard is gonna have diagrams of various oral sex positions. Not something I have heard of before, and I feel like it's almost guaranteed to find some success at the bars. Motherfucker has a girlfriend though, so he doesn't need success at the bars, and he's unwilling to let someone else use the costume, so I think I'm gonna reprise my Legends of the Hidden Temple costume from 2 years ago. Sort of weak. I may also do the Charlie Brown ghost thing, and just wear a white sheet with some holes in it...
I'm going as the "Most Interesting Man in the World" from the Dos Equis commercial. I got a dinner jacket with a red silk handkerchief to put in the front pocket, some cuff links and button studs off ebay, a tuxedo shirt from Hobby Lobby, and I've spent the last 3 weeks growing an extremely thick, manly, powerful beard. I'm going to walk around with a Dos Equis and a cigar while spouting off intriguing facts about myself and telling everyone to "stay thirsty my friends".
I bought an Arabian Knight costume and am going to make some TNT and be a Terrorist...I have some awesomely bad pickup lines I can't wait to use. But I definitely should have tried on the costume before I bought it because it looks like absolute shit, whatever.
So I couldn't find the stuff to go as the IASIP guys so I'm going as cousin Eddie from Christmas Vacation instead. Merry Christmas!! Shitter was full!!!
Wore the Tigger suit to work today. It's been a big hit so far, and I have a meeting that I'll be sitting in on later, as well. Luckily, it's with a guy I'm familiar with, so he should still be able to take me seriously. The owner's dogs, however, didn't like a 5'10" fuzzy idiot walking around the office. It took them a good 10 minutes to recognize me when I was talking to them without barking.
Here's the kids. My son is a blue ghost that we copied out of his favorite Scooby Doo book. Originally we thought to leave the ghost white, but it looked a little too much like a Klan robe that way. The lantern I built myself. My daughter is obviously a vampire. My wife made both costumes.:
