Personally going to a party where the theme is Undead.

I will be Zombie Jesus.

If you need one picked from the news get some mylar balloons from the local grocery store and go as the Colorado Balloon boy.

For 2 guys, dumb and dumber tuxes come to mind.

You can get away with damn near anything when wearing a gorilla costume and it's totally anonymous. A friend and I ran off with two guys dates for almost the whole evening. Run in, act like monkeys, carry off the hot girls. Their boyfriends were laughing when we left, the girls thought it was cute. Two hours later, the girls still though we were cute but their boyfriends were pretty pissed. Shawn. PS. Seriously dude, if you've never had a gorilla suit, do it before you die.

Awesome. Ever since I saw this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Asq9t4WmqtE

I've REALLY wanted to do the gorilla suit thing.

Not to thread jack, but I'm trying to come up with "free" costume ideas. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd considered "zombie michael jackson," but that'd involve a wig. I think it would be funny as E36 M3 though. Carry around a little toe-headed doll and say horribly innapropriate things like "Little boys taste like bacon."

I've also considered "The dude," as I have a pretty berkeleying sweet bathrobe that would be plenty warm, but again with the wig thing, not to mention the fact that apparently Big Lebowski references are as played out as sexual innuendo and flat black paint.

I wonder if you can rent a gorilla suit on the cheap?

I'm going with RP McMurphy (Jack Nicholson's character from One Flew Over...). Should be easy to do on a thrift store budget.

Y'all want thrift store budget? I'm goin as Philip J Fry. All I need to spend money on is either an orange wig, or some orange hairspray and some moose.

First thing I thought of was "Growing up Gotti".

That was me in 2006. Bottle of Jim Beam optional but recommended. It's a known fact girls don't mind the humping motion directed at them while your dressed like Domo Kun.

That whole costume is 1/2" PVC pipe, a backpack frame and some fabric.

And now as Domo, you'd look like a 7-11 cup.

Progress?

Here in Gainesville they just run around with a gift box around their "junk:" asking if anyone wants to open an early Christmas gift..... yup I saw this one on about 40 guys 2 years ago when I worked next to campus.

Maybe not horribly original, but I finally figured it out yesterday afternoon...

Black wig borrowed from sister-in-law: check.

Yellow rain slicker: check.

Empty KFC bucket: check.

Guitar and Marshall 2-watt mini-amp: check.

Slew of effects pedals: check.

Plain white mask: check.

Of course, the mask will need to be slightly modified to accomodate a straw/cigarette. I'm going to try not to speak all night.

The problem with rental gorilla suits is their hot, so they smell like puked-up ass. I vote for white and black stig! If a girl doesn't get it, you know she's NOT the one

False, the Guido phenomenon has infiltrated the local Chaldean community around here. It's getting to the point where you put an Arab next to an Italian and you can't tell who's who unless they speak. I feel obligated to point out that I'm Iraqi before someone raises the racist flag on me.

Having worked as a chauffeur in the Detroit area, I can vouch for this. Driving around a bunch of young Chaldean guys that are progressively getting drunker is no fun. But, they did normally tip well. This weekend I'm going to a family reunion / Halloween party for my girlfriends family in eastern Pennsylvania. I just found out today that I would need a costume. My short notice idea was to remember I've got a yellow and orange knitted cap (with tassels on the ear flaps) and an old olive drab field jacket. I'm going as Jane from Firefly/Serenity. My roommate heard this and is thinking about getting a Hawaiian shirt so he can go as Wash.

I had a fraternity brother come as a Trojan Condom in a wrapper to a Friday pre-Halloween party. (large square of cardboard, roll up a trash bag and staple it in a circle on the front. staple another over that, decorate) It was simple and funny. Another brother was offended and gave him a lengthy speech and espoused his religious views. The condom brother replied by showing up for Saturday's party as Jesus nailed to a cross. Oh my.

Don't forget the plastic dinosaurs and if you could somehow get a statue of yourself made out of concrete put into place before the party then you'd be a God among men!

Get three or four of your friends in solid color sweats. Paint random shaped boxes the same color. Put boxes around torso. Go as Tetris.

Bonus points for having a boom box play the theme. Every time some one says, "What the hell are you guys supposed to be?" play the song, spin around, and link up as the song stops. Never pay for beer the whole night.
