Halloween costume suggestions
My co-worker and I dress up every year for Halloween. Every other year we try to come up with costumes that make people think. One year we went as black eyed peas (very simple - white teeshirt with a "P" on it and a black eye) and another year we went as a day late and a day early (one wore an orange shirt with "October 30th" and the other had "November 1st")

We are stumped this year and need some ideas. Throw 'em at me, please.

2. Go as dust bunnies.
Collect dryer lint up to Halloween and then plaster it to yourself. If you can find white bunny ears it works really well to glue a big wad to each ear. When I did it last year for an ice skating party, I wore gray sweat pants and a gray sweatshirt.

I had a lot of people that thought it was funny.

3. Cereal killers

Get a bunch of those little ceral boxes and fake knives, tape the boxes (stabbed with the knives) all over you. Yeah, it's cheesy, but it got a lot of laughs and I had tasty snacks to hand out all night!

4. white trash
I cut a whole for my head and my arms in a large, white plastic garbage bag so I could wear it like a sweater. I glued all kinds of trash and empty food wrappers to it. I also found some great plastic roaches and ants that I attached. Then I smeared ketchup and mustard on it. But make sure that everything is dry before you wear it.

As a hat, I wore a white paper plate with a whole in the middle to get my pony tail through. The plate itself was decorated with pieces of old bread, a partially eaten hot dog, and mustard.

I don't have pictures but people loved it.

5. I was just on this site looking for smoke..
machines for when i'm a big rock star heh:) Anyway, got a chuckle out of this costume. Could write "I support GW" or whatever on the shirt.

It seems to fit quite a few of those bastards doesn't it?:evilgrin:
