I have neither time nor creative ideas nor supplies.

But what I do have is a knife, clothes and a broken laundry basket

I will be going as a load of laundry.

Is it original? Debatable
Is it lame? Oh ya
Can it be made in under 10 minutes? Oh hell ya

I love Halloween. My work said we could dress up this year, everyone got really excited and then they bought it back saying we could only wear a Halloween themed hat and/or some light makeup. What the hell is that? I can understand not wanting anyone to wear anything inappropriate or offensive, but to not let anyone wear anything, but a hat and some light makeup, with work clothes? Seems lame to me.

When does everyone carve their pumpkins? I was thinking about carving today, but I'm worried about mold and such. I was reading up on ways to preserve them, with bleach and such. Anyone ever try it out?

Saw a few like this at Sears Chinook the other night.

I haven't dressed up for halloween since my early teens, but if I were to go now (mid 20's) I would put all my resources into this.....

Here's a cheap and quick last minute idea for those Buffy fans...

Brown-toned suit, a pack of singles, and you're done!

First time attempting any freehand drawn design that's this detailed.

The "Stencil":

The Finished Product (which yes, I totally fata'ed the Y. It looked like a V and I was trying to fix it):

I would make a MARLEAU'o'lantern, cut the part that says MARLEAU into pieces (still readable), then smash the rest of the pumpkin and strew the guts and pieces around a SARICH'o'lantern.

"Iggy Bones" - Yes...our dog is named after our beloved Captain...carved this up yesterday and today.

Bad news everyone. Me and my friend went as the diving Canucks (Henrik and Daniel of course) and basically the only people who got our costumes were Edmonton Oiler fans. Some thought we were Van-city fans FFS.

I mean we're wearing goggles and swim trunks, wtf else do we need to wear? Like, bring a pool?

The good thing though, is many women came up to us and pittied us so we got some pity hugs.

Ugh...

Wearing swim trunks was the problem. To pull that off with hilarity you need to wear Speedos.

I ammm hung ova...good times last night.

And Redfoo from LMFAO was definitely this year's Joker, man I can't believe how many people there were dressed up as him. Easily over 10. Anyone else find this?

TorqueDog · 10-30-2011, 01:42 PM

Waiting on some friends for a couple action shots.

Cecil Terwilliger · 10-30-2011, 01:47 PM

If I had a Batman costume that was that convincing I wouldn't just wear it on Halloween. In fact, I would likely take up crimefighting.

Too bad I can't live up to the billionaire playboy thing during the day.

killer_carlson · 10-30-2011, 01:54 PM

I wonder if any people in batman costumes went and visited the occupy squatters?

Most definitely. Tons of Redfoo's (could tell because of of 'fro). Was also the Robot dancer as well where I went to.

Didn't help that the club played about 7-8 LMFAO songs (played Party Rock Anthem 3 times in 3 hours).
