What's everyone doing for a Halloween costume? Last year I went as Justin Timberlake in that dick in a box SNL skit and it was a hit, so this year I have to live up to expectations and I need ideas.

    I'm being The Dude.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    Indiana Jones! I got the official hat and whip in Disneyland a few years ago (I have no idea why), so I just need to tuck my brown cords into my brown boots and roll up the sleeves of my white dress shirt, and I'm set.

    My next door neighbors have invited us to have a bonfire in their driveway and pass out candy. I am nerdy-excited. I haven't had neighborly neighbors since I was a kid!

    One of my coworkers did last year. He carried a polaroid camera with him and taped pictures of random people to his "friends" list.

    Still haven't decided, but most likely I'll either be Bob Ross, or if me and my friends manage to get a group costume together, Ivan Draggo from Rocky (We would all be characters from Rocky, about 12 of us so we could break out some pretty strange/obscure characters)

    That is the coolest idea ever! I would laugh for days if I saw a Bob Ross. If you are Bob Ross, make sure to attach a happy little squirrel to your 'fro... those were the best episodes.

    When Kill Bill was released, there was an army of Crazy 88's running around the Gaslamp District in San Diego.

    This year I'm guessing I'll be seeing a thousand different variations of the Joker.

    I don't know what I'll be this year but last year I went as a Birthday Party and it was a HIT! Really, my friends are still talking about it.

    I went to the Dollar Store and bought a Birthday Party table cloth and stapled balloons, noise makers, party favors, cree paper, candles, etc. all over it. Cut a hole in the top and wore it. I got a HUGE Happy Birthday centerpiece and made it into a hat and wore that as well.

    I think it cost me all of $10. And everyone loved it.

    I am going as Peter Griffin from Family Guy, and my friend is going dressed in a chicken suit, so we'll be brawling all night.

    I'm dressing as John McCain, my girlfriend is going as Sarah Palin and her daughter is being Bristol. My brother is throwing a Halloween party this year and everyone in my family, with the exception of my oldest brother and I, are die hard Republicans. My girlfriend and I thought they would get a kick of the costume.

    I can't wait! I'm working a double on Halloween (I'm a waitress) & I will be Mary Poppins all day. Not only in costume but in character. I've been practicing giving the specials in her accent.
    It's a perfect costume for me because my name is Mary, I love Disneyland & my ringback tone is "it's a jolly holiday with Mary."
    I really screwed that up. I really Schruted it.

    I'm going as Mrs. Krueger and my husband is going as Freddy Krueger... And we're making our own gloves of blades! The ones that came with the costumes were just too flimsy! :p

    I think you should go as Amy Winehouse. I probably have a wig around here that you could borrow...oh, and some red patent stilettos, too.

    It would be even funnier on a guy. :)

    Have a Happy Halloween, everyone! I would looooove to see pictures next week!
    I still want you all to "take care"--I am just damn tired of typing it.

    I'm going as Amy Winehouse. I know, how 2007. But it will be fun.

    Whoops, didn't read the above post! But, I'm a girl. :-)

    I'm not going out dressed up for Halloween but on Saturday I went to a hen party dressed as the She-Hulk... one reason i'm NOT doing it again for Halloween?

    The paint stained my skin and I looked terribly jaundiced the morning after :o
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
