Virtual Costume Party

Who dressed up? I want to see everybody's costumes! Went to a Halloween party last night and had a blast! Some of the awesome costumes I saw were Harry and Lloyd from Dumb and Dumber in the orange and blue tuxedos, Bob Marley and his girlfriend was dressed up as a huge leaf of weed, "The Most Interesting Man in the World" otherwise known as the Dos Equis Man, Lady Gaga, and Katy Perry.

Here's me and what I thought was the best costume there, but I was biased. Ha! Had to take a picture with random Ramen guy! I was a piece of tuna nigiri sushi if you can't figure out what I am. I am the "rice". I had chopsticks in my hair and do you see my "wasabi" flower on my dress? I had a Kikoman soy sauce bracelet too. And I made it, which is the best thing about it!

Who else dressed up? I want to see pictures! Happy Halloween everybody!!!

Was busy this weekend and didn't bother dressing up for any parties.


A few years ago my roommate got his hands on a 7ft tall inflatable penis costume. He got quite a bit of attention at the parties.

Yeah, there was one of those at the party as well. HILARIOUS!!! I have a picture with him but didn't want to offend. Funny guy too... He was dancing and the way he moved made his costume move in the funniest ways. I couldn't even breathe because I was laughing so hard! And people were signing his costume with funny sayings. So funny!

No dressin' up here but.....

Ahh, Tweezers, you remember the girl who built the 356 thread a while back?
I think the reactions you get "on the street" aren't because you're into cars.
Nope, not at all. Vash nailed it.

Went as a fairly convincing Michele Bachmann, aside from being taller than the real one is. One of my friends nearly fell over laughing after she did a double take and figured out something wasn't quite right.

No costume for me, but my wife's work dresses up for Halloween so we put this together for her:



Not sure how much work she'll accomplish by standing around with her arms crossed all day and not talking to anyone...

Yall can feel free to use my costume idea. It is cheap, doesn't interfere with your ability to drink and if you exhibit any questionable behaviour there is a built in excuse.

I love it! I want more people to post their costumes or do a lot of people don't dress up anymore? I have to admit I haven't dressed up in about two years. I LOVE THE KISS COSTUMES! Did you guys rent those or make those? I might have to steal that idea.

And the Dodgeball team, Tom. HILARIOUS! That is something me and my friends would definitely do. Love the names on the shirts.

Jared, holy moly! Your wife is talented! Freaky make-up too!

Cute pic of your wife, exc911ence. She's just playing the part.

Scuba Steve! Where are the pictures?????

Thanks Wolfe and Vash... But I tell you, I don't get hit on very often. I think guys think I am going to be stuck up or high maintenance. My guy friends all tell me they thought I would be a snob. Just goes to show you, don't judge a book by it's cover... or costume! Hee hee!

Now let's see more costumes!!!!!

Thanks for the contribution, Lube. Not truly a good Halloween costume party until you have some "talented" half naked girls in costume. Yeah, the party I went to, half of the girls showed up in their bras and panties, added cat ears, angel wings, devil horns, etc and they had their costume. I would like to say that I would do the same and just save money and time but really? Just lacks creativity... But I don't think the men or the gals really care. And I can't put green font on but the above statement about showing up in a thong and bra was sarcastic... I have to say I have a little more depth than that.

If there were more women that looked like that around here, I would be more apt to find a party... As it is, they stay mostly clothed, and you are thankful for it.

I know... And if I didn't go to some two bit regional school, it wouldn't be so bad. Most of the girls here are grass fed farm girls.


Which would be fine, but I don't look good in wranglers and a hat...

Oh my goodness, she is precious. My kids and my nieces and nephews are all too old to be cute and too young (hopefully) to produce young-uns. I miss the two to six year olds.
