I'm going geeky this year. I found an old "Star Trek: The Next Generation" uniform shirt in my garage, left over from my college prankster days. It fits just as poorly as it did when I bought it back in the '80s. By coincidence, I also have one of the old tricorder toys that still beeps and clicks (loads of fun for playing tricks on coworkers - "Your system locked up? Let me take a quick scan...Yep, its a magnetic anomaly. Have you handled any refrigerator magnets lately? The magnetism stuck to your fingers and is affecting the keyboard.").

Not to mention names but... this is a very painful subject for one of our frequent posters who shall remain nameless or he will have to tint the windows on his BMW an even darker shade...
He has not dressed for holloween since he was a child. It was all do to a trajic mistake.... he misheard when someone suggested he go as a "hobgoblin" and went as a "nobgobbler" instead... with amusing but disturbing results.... Even the mention of "hobgoblin" leaves a bad taste in his mouth (no pun intended).
so out of courtesy maybe we should just drop it huh?

The greatest Halloween parties used to be held in Isla Vista next to UC Santa Barbara. It is (was) and entire city of college students and recent dropouts. Everyone just walks the streets on halloween and the party was fluid and fun.
My buddy (who works in a clean room for the govt. now) dressed up as a bong. A working bong. People were taking hits off him while he walked down the street...... ahhh youth is wasted on the young.

Considering I have a 5 and 7 yr old (and I'm just a big kid too), I'll be dressing up. I'll be the Grim Reaper with skeleton mask, black cape and hood, skeleton hands and scythe and walking with Annakin Skywalker, a Princess and a Greek Goddess.
Gofaster, I'm envious that you can fit into something from the 80's! 36 hit me this year and all of a sudden it's like the weight is packing on from out of nowhere while the hair decides to take off on vacation or something.
-
Well it's that time again...time to break out the ol' JASON MASK.
I hand out the candy, and the kids are shaking. I never have trouble with the neighbor kids after Halloween!!
I have to say, that mask scares me too!
Thorns :D

how would i make a good grim reaper costume like on LOTR?

I getting dress up as an ultra melon. Oh, wait, already am.

I'll be in Madison and partying as ... Harry Caray!
I have the huge, thick rectangular glasses, white haired wig, a blazer, a ruffled shirft and a funny looking tie. BUT its all in the delivery of classic lines from SNL and Will Ferrell.
"Hey, if you were a hotdog and you were starving, would ya eat yerself? I know I would, first I'd douse myself in relish and brown mustard, then the ketchup, hell I'd be delicious!" All the while shaking my head and looking confused... lol

The way to style it at a Halloween party...
Instead of throwing on some rubber mask or painting your face up to the point where yer unrecogizable and basically cannot be taken seriously by any girls ya wanna chat up, do this...
Get yerself a nice crisp retro-ish suit, grab one of those old Radioshack type white single earpeice headphone things pre-Walkman,.. and have it coming out yer shirt collar and into your ear.
What are you? Kennedy's bodyguard.
Lazy, lame, yes kinda. But at least you aren't gettin' greese paint all over your beer. And it's better to look good than to feel good. You know it babe.

I pass out candy with my gomer teefs and a ball cap pulled down to my ears :D

Well, the Grim Reaper and the Nazgul (Ring Wraiths) are completely different things. But I have seen hooded capes with a screen material in front of the face so you look like a faceless spectre like how the Right Wraights are in LOTR.
I'm the guy who comes to your door when it's time for you to go.

Last time I saw someone dress up as Hitler was at school. A very, very, large, tough Jewish guy in my class grabbed the kid dressed as Hitler by the throat and held him up against a wall...while explaining to him that it wasn't very cool to dress up as someone who had orchestrated the murder of a good deal of his family.
I very much doubt he did it again.

That's "Sweaty Nerd!" to you, pal. :)
Its going to be 80-freakin'-degrees and I'll be wearing a long-sleeve polyester shirt with long polyester pants. But, hey, its for the kids so I gotta sacrifice.
My nephew is going as the Blue Power Ranger. He had his 4th birthday a couple of weeks ago and that was one of his gifts. He wore it most of that day and the next. There was a bit of a crisis when he had to surrender it to the washing machine for a couple of hours, but he was all smiles when it popped out clean as a whistle.

That's a pretty cool idea!
We have an outdoor Halloween parade called "Guavaween" here, where adults dress up in costume and attend music concerts and go bar-hopping. Sort of a Halloween Mardi Gras with people wearing different costumes and stumbling down the center of the street. I've seen some pretty good ones, like three guys dressed as cosmonauts, complete with mirror helmets and fan-cooled space suits. Total professional job.
A buddy of mine and I went one year as "Hans and Franz" from SNL. We had grey sweatsuits with foam cut as pecs and biceps stuffed underneath. Our pickup line for the ladies: "We want to pump! ... you up!". The following year there were 5 other guys doing the same schtick. :rolleyes:
The funniest one I've seen was a guy dressed as a monkey in a cage. He had a stuffed "animal handler" positioned as if it was carrying the cage. The guy's legs were the handler's legs and the guy's torso was the monkey in the cage. I guess you had to see it really appreciate the effort.

That's nice Curval, won't stop me as I get on my way to world domination though.

So I ended up one year going to a Halloween party, but didn't have time to get a costume, and I was working retail, so I took the assistant managers name tag, put it on and went to the party.
everyone asked "what are you?"
I would point to the name tag and say "I'm and amazinhunk!"
The dude was there too, but screw him he really was a salamander!

Nerd? My kids LOVE it when I put on one of my Halloween masks and sneak into their room and scare them. When I do it to one, the other runs in and says "do it to me", but of course the surprise is now gone.
I tried on the my skeleton mask, skeleton gloves and hooded cape and the kids were downright bummed when I took changed back into my normal ugly self. It's quite fun. Maybe we'll do a family portrait tonight. :D

LOL...dressing as a grim reaper...did that once.
We went to one of those nursing homes offerig kids candy for best costumes. Got frowned at by a nurse on the way out when, not really thinking about it, said "Cya Soon!" to the elderly. Whoops!
:D

LePaul,
Woops! LOL

I should dress up as Goering some year.

A friend of mine got an appliance box, printed out a bunch of pages of 'windows', glued them to the box so it looks like a skyscraper, then had half a plane hanging out the front and orange-ish furniture stuffing hanging out the opposite side.
At least, that was the plan until he thought the likely effects out....

I remember reading a story of Keith Moon dressing up as Goering,walking into a jewish bakery in London and demanding German bread...
The poor lady behind the counter was shocked to say the least,but then so was Moony when the owner/husband came running out of the back room with a meat cleaver...narrowly missing the crazed drummer as he dashed out the front door.
I can't wait for the Keith Moon movie featuring Mike Myers..:)
