Halloween Costumes

[The Sandman]

What are the coolest Halloween costumes this year? The best I've heard about so far is Dog (The Bounty Hunter) Chapman and his wife Beth.

Oh, you wait til Wednesday.. I will have some of the most awesome photos!!! Gary is dressing up as the most gross looking zombie, the girls are witches, the boys are various maniacal things... I'll be taking the pics so don't be looking for me

I dress every year in costume for candy duty, have at least 150 trick-or-treaters if not more. I love Halloween! Not sure what the most popular is here this year, I'll get back to you on that.

Called a friend who runs a costume shop and this years "Hot Costume" is anything related to Pirates and Pirates of the Caribbean. Guess they'll be a lot of Arrr's and Aye's going on

Seeing as i have a halloween themed party coming soon, i'll probably go as a scantily-clad pirate again

I find it hard to find good halloween costumes that keep you looking good, ya' know.

If anyone hasn't seen that show, she's not really the most difficult costume to put together. Two ten-pound bags of birdseed, a bad wig, and you too can set female role models back a few decades. Will this person's "Dog" be pre- or post-incarceration for poaching in Mexico?

This evening, my friend and I will be attending a party as Wednesday Addams and Lurch (no, I will not be Wednesday, you wiseacres). Yes, we will take pictures. Yes, we will be obscenely drunk. As it was, we went to get elements of our costumes and stopped by something billing itself as the "Castle Boutique." Whether you know of the franchise or not, suffice it to say that their costume selection sits firmly in the "Beth Chapman School of Taste and Decolletage." We bought nothing there, though they did have a mind-boggling array of "marital aids."

For now, I think I'll just change into a new avatar.

Do you really think ten-pounders will do?

For the record, Beth Chapman scares the bejesus out of me.

Actually, I can affirm that birdseed is the Faux Booby of Choice for many professional NYC drag queens. Three to five pounds are commonly sufficient, across both. Clearly, you've never been forced to wear an underwire, or did you think that Victoria's Secret models never got back problems?

Obviously, we should have taken MY cellcam, but these are interesting images, nonetheless.

Alrighty then.

So, I was talking to the Team Leader of my Account's helpdesk about future staffing and suchlike, when I was ambushed by the 'Fun at Work Committee', who I now call the 'Gender Confusion Brigade' (see photo for reason).

They had a Trick or Treat box, filled with slips of paper. The one I drew said.... "Dress Up."

So I did.

And just so we can tell the difference... Bear in mind, I once lazily attended a Halloween party pretty much dressed as in that prof pic. Someone had the temerity to ask, "So, what are you?" To which I dryly intoned, "I'm a six-and-a-half-foot tall, 210-pound gay guy. What could be more terrifying to most Americans?"
