    A couple years ago I picked up an idea from this site that worked pretty well, super easy too. Get a bunch of nametags and put like 10 of them on with different names. Multiple personalities.

    I've heard that Ireland isn't that big into halloween, so I don't want to go all out and be overdressed. Seems like I might use this idea again.

    Yep. I did that one last year. Best thing to do is add a few yourself at the start, and then carry extra blanks and a marker with you and let girls write their own for you throughout the night. It's a pretty effective conversation starter. No one knows who Yuri Gagarin is.

    I did this last year. Originally I bought a mask online but I was disappointed so I went ahead and made my own. Definitely made the right call.

    My girlfriend wanted to do a couple costume (what girlfriend doesn't). With the help on some internet searching and brainstorming, we came up with a few inventive ideas:

    Anna Nicole Smith and that old guy (bonus points if you can find a wheelchair to use)
    St. Pauli Girl and Sam Adams
    Mia Wallace and Vincent Vega (bonus points for a bloody nose and a syringe)

    But we have decided to go as the Marilyns. I'm Manson and she will be Monroe. I can't fuckin' wait to assemble my costume. I definitely want knee-high platform boots and fishnets.

    Basically just lifted it up. It got really annoying and ended up completely messed up by the end of the night. But still worth it.

    I really want to go as either Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver, or get a group of guys to go as The Reservoir Dogs, but I'm fairly confident that a vast majority of the people around wouldn't "get" either costume. A night full of frustration at my generation is not worth the mohawk cut.

    Love the St. Pauli Girl/Sam Adams couples costume idea, for whoever posted that. If only my girl had the necessary assets to pull it off.

    Last year a couple friends and I went as Ash, Brock, Gary, and Professor Oak from Pokemon. Great costumes, we had poke-pong balls and everything.

    This year my roommate and I are going as Orange Jews.

    Well I woke up on Saturday morning and opened my e-mail to find an order confirmation message from FX Shops time stamped 3:20 AM.....so I guess I'm going as Wilfred after all.

    Every offensive idea I come up with either can't be pulled off effectively (Zombie Steve Jobs because of my beard, Zombie Randy Savage because I'm 5'11 170lbs, an entirely red-clad rabbi w/ devil horns because most dipshits don't get the relationship of Jews and Hell), so I'm debating doing a combination of these two takes on Five Finger Death Punch's Knucklehead. No, I don't care what you think about the band. I like them and I dig this particular skull character because of his permanent shit-eating grin.
    I'm thinking black eye makeup around the eye socket w/ blackout contacts could make this look freakish. Would just have to find the appropriate gas mask and go from clipper head shaved to shiny head shaved. I don't think I'll be doing any costume contests. Just a booze-filled work party and probably going out on Friday night. Saturday is a UT home game, and "working" those takes a lot out of me.

    I have a Pabst onesie. I'll be going as "Pabst Man," which I can only assume is a hipsters wet dream.

    My father is out visiting from California, and since he's a real wise ass, he bought the dogs costumes for Halloween.

    The Corgi got a super-girl cape.

    Poor Tonka got a giant bumblebee costume. We put it on him today to try it out, and I can now officially prove that dogs do feel shame. He actually went and hid behind the couch.

    One of my co-workers is going as an Ohio state trooper and his girlfriend will be a sexy cheetah covered in fake blood. If you were following this news last week, you'll understand it.
