Halloween costumes

One of the most cheesy and smart costumes I have ever laid eyes on, take a lot of those single-serving cereal boxes, tape them to a sweater and put plastic knives through them. You would be a cereal killer.

Or you could go as this.

That's bull**** by the way.

I'm taking a risk this year, and have my backup costume all ready in case this one doesn't work out.

Here's my costume for Halloween...

I'm going to grow my hair out a bit and then color it a brownish yellow color.
I will also wear an oversized, starched white button down shirt.
Over the shirt, I will wear a grey suit, no tie.

When I get to the party, I'm going to spend a lot of time in the kitchen near a plate of cookies. When people ask me who I am, I will say, "We'll get to that in a minute..."

I will then pull out a huge collection of white paper featuring raunchy chat transcripts and begin asking them questions about their online chat names and why they are actually at the party. I will ask them if they're there for 'Sexsh'.

Later, I'll introduce myself as Chris Hansen from Dateline NBC and then let them know that I'm doing a program about adults who visit teens for sex. I'll ask them if they have anything else to say. Afterwards, I'll let them know that they're free to go.

I'm actually kind of excited, because I pretty much have his voice down pat. I think this costume would be doable even if you didn't have the voice down. The key is reading off various raunchy chat transcripts and/or possibly showing pictures of the guy with a parrot on his wiener.

That's ****ing awesome.

I'll be going as my old standby, a chick magnet. Cut out pictures of girls from magazines, tape them to yourself.

Chick magnet.
 
The former Mrs. LSS dressed up as Jackie Kennedy...after John had been shot.

Attended a Halloween party about twelve years ago where a couple showed up as Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman PEZ dispensers.
 
For you folks with kids, one of the best costume ideas I've ever seen came from some friends, who dressed their infant in a bee outfit and then wore white pants, long white coats, white gloves and pith helmets with veils. They were the beekeepers.
 
I went as Hunter S. Thompson for a couple of Halloweens. Last year, I went as a high school basketball coach, complete with whistle. I've got one female friend urging me to go as a pimp, which is kind of played out, but I'll do it if she goes as one of my hos.

Did you talk in cliches all night? :D

A few years back, one of my friends went as some fictional character named "Futureman 3000." He wore a cardboard box, and covered himself in tin foil and silverware. Funny stuff.

Maybe I'll go as Bo Jackson again...

If you recall, the kiddie uniforms of the early 1990s featured the infamous single-bar facemask. Ah, the memories.
 
My crowning costume, which I might reprise this year, was to use posterboards to create a milk carton and had my face sticking out the side with the words "Have you seen this child?" above my head.

My other fallback is Matt Foley -- "Hey, Dad, I can't see real good....is that Bill Shakespeare over there?"
 
I usually go as a sailor. I've still got my uniform, ribbons, medals, etc.
 
the earliest i'll ever think of my costume is oct. 30

have had to work most halloweens, so haven't had a chance. last one i think, was 2001 -- i went as an anthrax letter, had some baby powder i threw all over people

C'mon, Alley. You gotta come stronger than that, man.
 
One of my friends was huge Prince fan and he decided to go as Prince to his fraternity's halloween party. He got the purple suit, the frilly shirt, a pair of funky shoes, the whole get-up and he was just so excited about it. Mind you, he's 6-2 and about as Irish as they come. After the weekend I called him to see how the party went.

"Sucked. Sucked so bad."

"Why?"

"I spent the whole night telling people, 'No, I am not Elvis!' Do people not recognize Prince when they see him?!?!?"

Had he worn purple get-up with the assless chaps, maybe he could have avoided the confusion. ::)

Here's a site that offers some possibilities, mostly for the women, some of them NSFW:

... Which reminds me of the penis costume a friend wore one year, complete with giant balls and a can of whipped cream he shot off from the top.

... And the next year, when he went as a guy being eaten by a shark. Hard to explain.

My best effort was going as Optimus Prime in Grade 2. Think giant red box.
 
I was thinking about going as a priest.

To make my costume look authentic, I think I'll bring my 10-year old nephew to the party.
 
I think this year I might have to go as Whitlock. The best part is that it will require very little actual costuming... just need to add a few little, distinguishing touches to my bad self.

I may go as you and hold a sign in front of my face. How famous are you, Ragu?
