EL the Famous Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I might reprise my Shaun Ryder costume from 1998. I'd ride shotgun as Bez, but nobody would get it...w/ the distance and all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Adult costume parties really annoy the bejezus out of me. I don't know why-maybe it's the fact that I hate having to guess who the people are-costume-wise and hidden beneath the costume- or maybe it's just the sheer stupidity of it, I'm not sure. If forced to go to one I'd probably go as either John Sununu or former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop.From the physical dimensions those two men suggest, I think you could rock this costume: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duck-Billed Catechist Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I'm going to go as Nice Pete:http://achewood.com/index.php?date=08092006or Pat (with chaps):http://achewood.com/index.php?date=08112006 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

isavedlatin Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 Thanksgiving owns Halloween. Garbage. Although last thanksgiving I did make paper pilgrim hats and indian headdresses for the fam. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rufer Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Garbage. Although last thanksgiving I did make paper pilgrim hats and indian headdresses for the fam. And what did you do for your family last Halloween? My guess is nothing. Probably just went ambling about begging for candy for yourself! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duck-Billed Catechist Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I'm becoming a big fan of this Rufer character. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Big Perm Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I'm going as John Riggins, circa 1987. Part of my schtick will involve running over kids as if they were a defensive line, and performing touchdown celebrations every time I get some candy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jenbobblehead Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 i am going to a beaux-art ball that weekend that celebrates the art and architecture of the era and i am going as the ghost of a building torn down for a surface parking lot. Or, i am going as a scumbag developer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Do it,Lammy.Just do it.Assuming I had to go as someone/something, I'd certainly consider it. That's a sweet John Goodman look, BTW. However, I stand at roughly 5'8" and weigh about 160. It'd be tough to pull off. I'd end up looking like an effeminite Irish wedding planner or something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
viatroy Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 why don't you come over and see? you hid out with your family in a convent cementary and escaped the Nazi's by climbingover the Alps into Switzerland? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rwrkb Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I'm going as Black Francis, circa 1990. Part of my schtick will involve screaming random Spanish words while handing out candy. i haven't dressed up for halloween for several years... my last costume was Ryan in a Suit, it was pretty simple it just involved me putting on my suit. this year i've been flirting with going as johnny bravo, but i need to make up my mind quick 'cause i shouldn't get a hair cut tomorrow if i'm gonna do it.

truetolife Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Halloween - The perfect excuse for qrown women to bring out their best whore outfit, I'm not complaining, just saying. One of my favorite while in college was a couple of guys that dressed up like Hall & Oates (their costumes were perfect) or the guy that dressed up like Anthrax, the chemical not the band. He wore white pants and a white t-shirt, painted his face white and covered himself in white baby powder. The Anthrax guy drew a skull & crossbones on the t-shirt with the lettering "ANTHRAX". It was hilarious, everywhere the guy went, there were people with white spots of powder on them, everyone was contaminated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fickerson Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 well, we were going to go as lola and tony from the song 'copacabana,' but now my other half is threatening to wuss out (not like he has any better ideas). in all honesty, we may just stay in, as halloween in this town has gone to shit.
