What Are You Gonna Be For Halloween? - Page 2

Heh. I'm getting to that point where I'm a little too old for it, but I do hang out with friends and walk around acting like an idiot. That's always fun.

Last year I was John McVie, circa The Dance. It? Was a good time. Except for the rain. That wasn't so good.

I don't know what I'm going to be this year. Someone my mom knows dressed as a tampon back in the day at a party. And she got an email from someone (I'm assuming it was a friend) who said he was going to put a potato on his .... and he would thus be -- wait for it -- a Dictator.

Not that I'd try those or anything. Just a little anecdote.

Any thoughts yet?

After seeing the new John Waters flick, I think you should go as Ursula Udders.

OMG, you are going to piss yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the funniest and filthiest flicks ever. I want to know what you think when you get back.

And yes, Deb was hysterical in that. I loved the ending where her hair blew up.

I think I'm going to watch one his movies tonight, either Female Trouble or Desperate Living...or maybe Polyester because I have one of the Odor-Rama cards.

to scare the crap outta these religious ZEALOTS here ("Ohhh, I am goin' to hell...Big whoopdie-FN-dooo"), I think I will dress up as "Conspiracy" era King Diamond, Just for the utter shock value:

I don't understand the reasoning with dressing up as just anything? The kids that do dress up over here go for scary stuff - witches, ghosts, skeletons etc.

because Kiss ab-so-lute-ly suck...Whereas King is a required taste (ie-Euro Metal).

Maybe I should just dress up as someone who doesnt give a flyin' f**k for Halloween...Which is a daily occurrence for me, Hehehehehehe...

Apparently in the US Halloween is only behind Christmas and New Years Day in terms of # of parties and dollars spent.

Remember the basic premise behind Halloween is that it is the day that the world of the dead is the closest to the world of the living. I believe the Celts would dress in costumes like ghouls and imps and dead people so that the dead, always looking for a live soul to posess or carry off, to trick the dead into leaving them alone. I believe at one point costumes were also intended to honor saints on All Saint's Day (Nov. 1).

My regular fallback costume is a bad fairy (short black skirt, black stockings, black DMs, black wings, heavy makeup, sometimes a blonde wig).

I love Halloween! It's my favorite time of year, and it's just a cool irreverent holiday. Christmas is cool because of the presents, but it's a little serious. I think New Years is a largely pointless holiday. Halloween you can let loose and be a little bad.

I was Eddie one year, and my friend went as Pats. Unfortunately, it was the first year Ab Fab was on TV in the states, and hardly anyone knew who we were! But we had a blast! Stoli, babe!
