I was in Party City tonight and the song Thriller started playing on the radio. I'm pumped now! I can't wait till I make up my mind about what costume to wear.

9/13/2011 9:52:52 PM

perfectly normal for somebody other than a mother of 3 to be in a Party City on a Tuesday night

9/13/2011 9:54:22 PM

^Yep! There were actually some adults in there without children. The weekend is not for shopping. There are too many sports to be watched and played.

9/13/2011 9:58:18 PM

I don't think I have ever been in Party City. What were you getting? Stocking up on streamers and balloons?

9/13/2011 10:01:44 PM

^They have a ton of Halloween costume stuff in there.

9/13/2011 10:14:29 PM

I will be the scout this year. Plan on having both the scattergun and the bat. If you see someone drink a BONK! and sprint down hillsborough, that's me.

I'd like to retract previous comments in this thread in lieu of a plea for assistance.

I need an idea for either:
A. Myself
B. A group of 3
C. A group of 4

Something I can make a little "home project" would be nice.

for a group of 4, could always be those creatures from Yo Gabba Gabba

9/13/2011 10:47:54 PM

I am trying to work on a costume right now. You can make a lot of things out of cardboard.

YODA NEEDS A HALLOWEEN BLOG.

Ironman was legit. Or at least the arm was

9/14/2011 12:34:25 AM

apparently I have to dress up as someone from 90210

9/14/2011 12:36:14 AM

^LOL!

I'm trying to make a fake yard dart that looks like it is stuck in my head. We play yard darts at my friend's parties sometimes. You can by all kinds of different hats, pins, and shirts online that say things like "I love Lawn Darts," and "Lawn Dart Survivor." I already have fake blood, so it will be cheap and funny, if I can make it work.

I fail to find the funny outside of your circle of friend (no s on the end of that...just one friend)

9/14/2011 12:51:38 AM

^I have plenty of friends.

The good news is they still make the remakes of my BTTF solar shades and sell them at Party City.

9/14/2011 1:13:04 AM

well, guess your original pizza hut ones are about worthless then

9/14/2011 3:54:09 PM

I was thinking of going as a garden gnome

9/14/2011 3:56:08 PM

Next year (the Halloween before I do a thru-hike of the AT) I am going to dress a hiker who's been mauled by a bear. The next thing will be convincing my girlfriend to dress as said bear.

9/14/2011 4:03:45 PM

Overly drunken people need to realize touching the costume is OFF LIMITS. I had one bitch ruin my tree-beard. It was very difficult to keep the moss stuck in my face hair and she comes up and grabs a handful. Unacceptable.

9/14/2011 4:04:24 PM

Okay just a group of 3.

Ideas, please?

[Edited on September 14, 2011 at 7:05 PM. Reason : \/ lmao ]

Snap, Crackle, and Pop

9/14/2011 7:04:17 PM

i want to have one person dress up as a bowling ball and then me and 9 others can dress up as bowling pins. we scatter at the beginning of the night. whenever the bowling ball sees you, he chases after you while you scream bloody murder.

9/14/2011 7:14:21 PM

I want to be decomposing Pam. I have the perfect hat for it, I just need black lace, a black dress, zombie contacts, zombie makeup and vampire fangs

9/14/2011 7:42:30 PM

^^ haha that'd be pretty good.

We've decided to roll our housewarming party into Halloween so hopefully most of the painting will be done. Guess I have to think of a costume after all.

Please to give pregnant chick costume ideas. Preferably nothing lame like Juno or painting a pumpkin on my belly

^^ punchmonk did the nun thing when she was pregnant last year - iirc - hilarious

9/14/2011 8:01:58 PM

hahahah yeah i forgot about that LOL

9/14/2011 8:02:14 PM

haha I was actually thinking of chest burster but not sure if I could pull it off.

9/14/2011 8:03:26 PM

my coworker will be about 8 months around then.. i think i should get her to do it too

9/14/2011 8:03:36 PM

Lulz I kind of want to do this:

Also I laughed at the one review:

Quote :

"My wife and I bought this to spice up our love life, but the kids love to wear it, too. The costume holds its shape very well and is roomy enough to wear over a heavy coat during trick or treating. One drawback--it holds odor! If you sit and smoke in it all night, the next wearer will definitely take notice. Overall I would say this is a good but not great Peeps costume."

haha or for a couple costume:

Spirit Halloween is now open at Pleasant Valley.

9/14/2011 9:07:03 PM

^^ i LOVE that

9/14/2011 9:08:07 PM

I even have a 50s dress I could wear, I just need to finish hemming it.

9/14/2011 9:12:38 PM

wolfpackgrrr you totally need to do the 50s housewife/milkman costume. Awesome idea!

To reiterate a previous question, since Halloween is on a Monday, what is the protocol for timing my festivities?

9/15/2011 12:03:26 PM

It's likely the usual bar/club scene will be conducting their parties on the saturday before. Since halloween was on a sunday last year, most of the parties were on saturday as well.

9/15/2011 12:32:18 PM

^Actually some bars celebrate multiple nights in a row.

9/15/2011 9:32:05 PM

so I'm wondering if I should have TWO costumes... one for my costume party here at home and one for when I'll be San Diego (the weekend of Halloween)


I'm thinking of this one for when I'm in San Diego mainly because I bought a green dress that is very similar

I did that one year because I couldn't make up my mind. I went as a blind ref to a house party with a sign that said, "Need job, will work for UNC." and then 2 hours later I put on the solar shades and bike helmet and went off to another friend's Halloween party.

9/16/2011 12:28:19 AM

Mine isn't an issue of making up my mind... more of, how the hell am I going to fit crazy heels, an extra tux, a wig, and all the make-up I need into a duffle bag when I'm already going to be packing professional clothes for 4 other days :\ plus, the time constraint of doing said make-up after being at a conference all day
