Halloween

Post by Maxus »

So what's the Den's Halloween plans?

Tomorrow I'm going to a party

As a drug dealer.

I just need some safety pins so I can pin my goods to the inside of my trenchcoat and open the coat to show people the various stuff.

Did you use some jumbo pixie stix?


My wife and I carved a pumpkin.

No plans, but my wife does have a kickass witch costume -- which consists of her normal clothes plus a pointy hat from Target. I guess that's the advantage of wearing black clothes and striped socks most every day.

I'm just going to toss on my pimp hat and grab my cane before going to any Halloween parties.

My sister-in-laws and their significant others are coming to hang out with my wife and me. We'll likely play Betrayal at House on the Hill, watch some movies, and drink the whiskey slush I'm going to make.

no plans, so instead of putting together the elaborate were-hyena costume I'd decided I had wanted as my halloween costume this year, I'm going to finally make the Gir sweatshirt I've been wanting to for a while, and I'll just wear that if I do anything.

If I go out, I'm going as Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

I've been growing a fu manchu mustache for the hell of it. I need to get a red mandarin collar shirt and maybe my dress shoes and I think I can do it.

So my plan is to go as Fu manchu.

I made my own dime bags by cutting sandwich bags in half and using a lighter to seal the edges shut.

For that authentic ghetto look.

Some friends are having a roleplaying-themed Halloween party, so I'm tempted to go as my cleric. Yeah, the Cleric of Loviatar.

No, there will not be pictures.

My current plan is to wander around campus all day in a bathrobe and sandals as, of course, The Dude.

I grabbed some off-the-shelf ghoul costume, and so apparently I'm going to be The Stranger With The Burning Eyes. Or at least The Stranger With The Intermittently Glowing Eyes.

Excellent. Do you have the hair for it?

You also need to have a glass of skim milk or something to look like a White Russian.

Hmm...

last year I went as L. I'm already a skinny adolescent with jagged dark hair, so all I had to was slouch around in an oversized sweater and draw bags under my eyes. I ninja-perched on the sides of tables and made stacks of sugarcubes.

My friend had the same issue as me, no explicit plans for Halloween, but wanted something just in case. I asked if he had a reasonably nice suit or the like, and suggested Baron Samedi, which he liked, but ultimately decided against, continuing to wander around the costume shop.

Eventually he started talking about taking two stereotypical costumes, and mixing them, and we both got the idea of "hippie+cop" at the same time, with me finishing the equation "=pot-cop"

So my friend is apparently going to be "Pot Cop".

I used to have the hair, but sadly not anymore. And I had considered the need for milk, sunglasses, and maybe a bowling bag.

I have a friend IRL that goes to anime conventions as Axe Cop, and will probably be going as him for Halloween to boot.

I just -know- I'm going to regret this, but here's my outfit from Saturday's party. And me, too, of course.

In b4 your picture ends up in an article linked on "News that makes you laugh, cry or both", as "Man gets 10 years for carrying sugar".

Sugar -was- involved.

As were pixie stix.

And Smarties.

And the blue-and-white things are these York Peppermint Patty things along the lines of Reese's Pieces.

If the people at the party had been a little bit drunker, I was going to try smelling smarties and the York chocolate for a dime a pop.

Going as Locke Cole from FF6, a friend who's into cosplaying and I found the *perfect* jacket for it while thrift-store hunting yesterday along with a bunch of other stuff.

We're also having a get-together with some others (mostly in my Shadowrun group) to watch some episodes of Leverage on the 31st.
