This is my favorite commercial, so I'm thinking of going as this kid



Of course with any costume like this you risk people wondering what the hell you are.

I have always wanted to do the listerene man. but that just seems like so much effort and upkeep and awkward movingness. If I had my beard still i could do Zac galifinakis haha

As a Canadian living in the US there is really only one option, that of course is to go as a seal clubber. It's a pretty effective costume, and meets my goals of being at once funny and also offensive.

I thought about going as Garfield, but it was really just an excuse to eat a bunch of lasagna and then pass out.

yep mostly, but it is made of foam, so any spilled drinks are a moot point

I went as Zom-Billy Mayes last year... had a Oxyclean container for my drink glass. Was a pretty easy costume:

Like this:


But that's not me... guess it wasn't a completely original idea... plus I had the oxyclean cup


Like others have said, I think a costume like this was mostly fun because it was borderline offensive.

Need to come up with something for this year.

There was a Zombie Walk in Cgy this weekend. Anyone attend? Herald has some cool pics. They should have done it closer to Halloween.

Going as Chop Top this year, lots of prep but should be good.

The best part about Halloween is that it's an excuse for girls to dress slutty.
