methinks i'm going to be the free money guy...

or the greatest american hero.

Mine isn't clever but it's cute. I'm going as a Bavarian Beer Garden Girl. Costume is cool and I will bring pretzels to parties. Instant attention!

a lot of people at my school are planning to be rem koolhaas...it's the new cool here

Ideas Ive had:

A tucan
Julius Caesar (w/ sword in back)
A cactus
Devo Bandmember
Powdered Toast Man

I'm going as a jellyfish. parasol + tons of curly ribbon + glitter = wondrous and magical jellyfish.


squish squish.

I would like to be a plot style wizard. Still working out the details.

i like the jellyfish idea! kewl!

At the moment my 3yo son will be an owl and I will be the bat that he is chasing.

grave digger. the monster truck.

to images shot at lasts years Halloween party in town. Some interesting ideas...

Those are some great costumes! Except for maybe the guy with the pie tin on his crotch.

i'm going as meatloaf. what i havent decided is whether to be meatloaf the singer or meatloaf the comfort food...

Dog the bounty hunter: running from the cops after a three week binge on ice.

i going as a republican. frightening.

Vincent from Project Runway.

My friends and I are dressing up as the cast of AMERICAN GLADIATORS.

I just purchased American-flag inspired lyrca one-piece suit this weekend. On Friday, we'll be putting the finishing touches to our joisting sticks.

I'll be Lace.

Wait, that is my weekend costume.

My work costume (obviously more modest) is a mall walker. You know, the old ladies that walk around malls wearing nylon warm-up suits? Yea, that will be me.

Be Princess Diana. Put on a dress, tape a hubcap to your head, smear your face with grease, etc.

i want to be the guy in the red

apparently prorgrammed LED arrays mounted in motorcycle helmets are hard to come by...

anyone have a codpiece they can spare?

ahhh halloween... the one holiday when women find it completely appropriate to dress like ho's...

chicks have it so easy. they can just put on a mini skirt, halter top, and diddley bops. "what are you?" "i'm a space slut..."

(my droogs were away and i was looking for a little of the old in out, in out)

i'm going as lee hotti/carmine gotti..

I'm dabbling with the notion of an "artsy" costume this year. Still haven't decided. Am trying to put a group together to make it happen, but I'm not sure if it will.....

If you had to go as a texture, what would you be?

Grainy.

I thought this one was fun:

balking at the probability of failing to do alex justice i have once again scaled back my ambitions a bit closer to reality...

crazy code pink woman with blood on her hands who attacked rice anyone??

michael winslow...... he has videos on youtube..... the martial arts skit is dope and the tennis one...hahahah....classic........ sir ..we have bloop.....beeps.......and bunggs


b

again, we're dumbing it down a bit, but now we're adding peeps...



...so going with the hometown theme... we have ferris, cameron, and sloan comitted... i will either be the dean, (jeffrey jones), or a blond beer maiden. goal: we will attempt to start impromptu parades in the middle of the chicago streets singing twist and shout.

I think someone should dress up as the Thread Killer for Halloween....

i'm feeling like the halloween equivalent of a scrooge. we're dressing up our daughters, of course. but we weren't going to dress up at all. now my mother's coming to town with her husband and they're intending to wear costumes. arrrgh! so now i guess i gotta do something.

A few friends and I dressed up as American Gladiators on Saturday night. We are all wearing hot pants so it's probably best that it's a waist up shot. The jousting sticks were a hit amongst the other party goers.

The image includes former Gladiators from l to r: Malibu, Zap, Ice, and Lace.

Ill probably just get a Guy Fawkes mask and black hat. Id actually like to run to salvo, buy a cheap used suit with classic striped tie, grease my hair back, take an axe from one of our job sites and go as this guy:



I just don't think ill have the time to get the axe, go to salvo and go to class tomorrow.

Tonight I was the man from Nantucket. I had on my Nantucket hat, my Nantucket tourist shirt, my Sperry Topsiders, and I had one of these down my right leg.

i love adolf's dog!

n_ I can't get over how glorious that picture is. Outstanding! Well done!

ummm, we were energizer bunnies...

to scale AA battery on our backs, but with a heineken keg inside....with plastic tube tap extension...keep that beer flowing all night.

it was sweet.

This is our laser cutter guy's costume from last week. Pretty fricken sweet. This guy doesn't do too much talking. Keeps to himself. I guess he spends all his time thinking up awesome costume ideas.

I need costume ideas, guys!

The only thing I've got right now is using my friend's American Apparel wardrobe to assemble a typical nerd costume.
