Suit Up!

[Lynx]

No this is not the new Avengers call to action. This is a thread about what you will be wearing this Halloween. Not what you FEEL like (that's in the "Which Witch" thread.) This thread is about what you actually intend to go as this year.

You going for a homemade costume?

Gonna buy an off-the-shelf suit this year?

Are you going for the premium suit? Iron Man with real metal plates all over instead of metal painted cloth?

Do you have a really cool idea that is gonna blow everyone's mind at the party?

I have a lot of old wristwatches that I got in bulk, dirt cheap, at the auction. I'm going to put them all on my belt and go as a waist (waste) of time.

You can use that if you want, if you can find a lot of wristwatches cheap.

Is this like our date at the bridal shop?

Where Cady Heron went as an ex-wife - well I think she got her costume from there.

LOL!!

Ok.

I admit.

This sounds like a punchline from a very bad joke, but it made me laugh out loud!!

And it's an awesome idea for a costume!!

I haven't dressed up since I was a kid.

Oh, the possibilities!!!

It would be fun for groups to go as a Cast of Characters from some show, movie, or game.

@Lanolin and I could go as Sanrio characters!!




I call Badtz Maru (grumpy penguin with an attitude!

He's my spirit animal!

 

[Lanolin]

I though Tux, he has a suit too.

But if everyone went as Tux, it would be kind of hard to tell everyone apart.

If I had to go trick-or-treating on halloween, I'd dress up as a car.
That way I'd use my wheels to roll down the street instead of walking.
More comfortable for the feet and makes it easier to go through multiple nehgborhoods, allowing me to score full bags of candy.

Or just wear rollerskates, go on a scooter.

Not to mention you could go faster, thereby visiting more houses in less time, henceforth, racking up much more candy!!!

TuxedoSam, with the bow tie.

Onesie

Last year I did something similar. I traced my son's arms on cardboard and cut 8 or 10 of them out and attached them to a coat.

I went as a coat of arms.

The girl in the onesie hasn't collected enough booty yet to look boofy like the REAL TuxedoSam

We don't have Halloween, so I pass. Though I'm grateful we don't celebrate it.
It's one thing less in my list of "should we? or should we not?"

The only part I play on Halloween is handing out candy, which now costs an arm and a leg. I don't dress up, I'll be in my usual carhartts.

 

[Texasgal]

I think I’ll dress up like a hag who people will believe is a witch. Maybe a broom to spice up the costume. Then I’ll take off on the broom and everyone will be running for cover while I steal all the candy.

Punny costumes are the best!

Timbers will be our resident neighborhood lumberjack -- who gives out candy!

Don't worry, Edith.

I'm sure someone will throw a Halloween party (with a cute, not scary, theme) and invite you over!

Lol!

Look out, folks!

If she takes that broom in hand, you know something serious is about to go down!

Don't worry, I'm sure it will take some time to pick from her vast collection...

Maybe this will buy us some time.

I went to Kmart yesterday, a brand new one that is open 24 hours, and it had all the Halloween stuff on the shelves.

I bought a black cat for good luck. It reminded me of my own black cat called Fluffy we had for 18 years. Actually the tag on it said "Halloween Fluffy Plush'
I am going to call her...Pluffy. She is now sitting next to Kuromi and they are both going to go sit in the windows of my haunted house scaring away the tricksters.

Anyone who comes to my house begging will receive a spotty banana, and possibly a granny smith apple.
