We all want to be that guy with the kick ass costume... its fun.

Success I've had in the last few years:

A Facebook profile with markers to sign on it: paper status updates and friend requests too (name and phone number on it.)
Chilean Miner
a member of the Jabbawokeez


...But I'm struggling this year. And no, I'm not going as Steve Jobs/ an iPhone / an iPad.

Lets brainstorm and come up with some good ideas for the betterment of the group. Feel free to post some of your favorites from the past too.

Personally, here are my ideas:

A Hipster / Occupy Wall Street Protester
The Tea Party (Complete with American Flag, Tea Kettle, Jean Shorts, tea cups, etc.)
LMFAO (boombox, tight leopard pants, that whole get up, shuffle everywhere, party rock on repeat.


What else you guys got? Brainstorm for the group, then we can all have good ideas for a good Halloween.

Ready? GO!

well, I'm in college, and i live in a house, in a neighborhood, and none of my neighbors are familiar with us... so that means from 5-8PM we'll be getting trick-or-treaters. soooooooooooo....

I'm dressing up as a pedophile and putting a sign in the front yard that says FREE CANDY! when the kids ring the door bell i'm just going to answer it with a glass of wine in one hand and a rag in the other but no candy.

I'm not sure how its going to go from there, haven't really thought that part out yet....

Go as a thug? I'm sure you own a couple tall tees.

Or do what a kid did today for superhero day at my school: Rorshak (no fucking clue how to spell that) from Watchmen. The fucking coolest thing ever.

Didn't you know you can't use the word Brainstorm because it's offensive to epileptics?

But seriously go and Geoffrey Leonard.

I wanted to do this last year, but couldn't talk my wife into it.

Example of Cialis ad:

So obviously this is a 2 person costume. You make two tubs out of cardboard, paper mache, etc. Make them so you can hang them from your waste while wearing black paints. No shirt so it looks like you are naked in the tub. Walk around holding hands. Wait for people to fall down laughing. Post video back in this thread.

most of these are for a group (since i live in a house with 7 other people and we all want to do some kind of theme this year)

so far this is my list:
joe dirt (i am growing a mullet so we shall see what happens with this one)
entourage (just an idea, none of my friends want to be drama)
hunter s. thompson (fuck yeah)
animal house (possible toga party at my house one of the days around halloween)
tetris (this is a group theme and they have to look fresh)
power rangers (who doesnt want to be a power ranger?)
rocket power (skate boards?)

I'm contemplating spending some cash on a hazmat (hazardous materials) suit and just walking around telling everyone im a germaphobe and dont want to get contaminated by anyone. still trying to figure out how I could rig up some sort of alcohol consuming device under the suit so i dont have to poke holes/cut it or anything like that (maybe a camelbak?)

Last year me, my girlfriend (brunette) and her friend (blonde) went as Threes Company. I was Jack Tripper.
Even though half of you are too young to know what Threes company was.

This year I was thinking about going as Khadafy.

And on a side note the NYC MSP movie premier is the Saturday night before Haloween. Should be a good night!

I'm not 21, so I can't do this, but the Jager Bomber. Just strap jagermeister and redbull to your chest like a strap of c4 and wrap a scarf around your face. It's funny and everyone loves you because you're a walking jager bomb dispenser.

A Tusken motherfucking Raider from Star Wars

Other Ideas: Napkin, box (myfriend has been both, he forgot it was halloween so he taped a paper towel to his chest, and last year he forgot to cut armholes in the box)
