Halloween Headaches 2.51
Halloween Drunk Comment
"Her friends should tell her to have some decency." -- James
Another Halloween has come and gone. Luckily, I survived. But here's my second-day review of Halloween.
Best Example Of Not Taking Your Own Advice Part 2
Again, I dressed up like a lesser-known character. This time, Montgomery "Scotty" Scott from the Starship Enterprise. I fielded a lot of the same questions, "Where are your ears Spock?" Or "Make out with any green chicks today Captain Kirk?" Alas, this country is full of fucking illiterate heathens. But I did get an excuse to talk in a crappy Scottish accent again (I pretended to be Braveheart a few years ago). I also shaved my face completely for the first time in nearly eight years.
Least Humorous Nerds
I saw a Captain Kirk and Spock, but they didn't even register my existence. Granted, Scotty is just the chief engineer and they're the captain and the second-in-command science officer, but still, at least salute back you fucking dickheads.
My Favorite Costume Couples
I saw one couple each wearing giant pieces of bread on their backs, and the boy was dressed in all brown and the girl was all red. Then they kissed to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich - it's so cute I barfed.
I also saw a Cruella De Vil with two skanky dalmatian chicks on leashes. That was pretty hot.
Dumbest Costume Accessory
Rollerskates. Now, I'm a RollgerGirl and Boogie Nights fan, but I've seen way too many girls bust their faces or their asses trying to drink and rollerskate. This year, on top of three RollerGirls I saw a Terry (the gay Nick Swardson character from Reno 911!) and he nearly crushed crowds of people. Sure, it's a great costume, but you put way too many people at risk. Of course, watching people fall over is funny though.
Dumb But No Dumber?
Seriously, I saw a Lloyd Christmas but no Harry Dunn? What, you couldn't find the baby blue tuxedo and another friend? They could have been great together.
Creepiest Maybe Accidental Costume Prop (Tied)
Was Little Miss Muffet really pregnant? Or did some spider cum down inside her? If so, why the hell was she out at a bar?
Or...
Some dirty pirate hooker painted an amazing goose egg on her head. Oops. That wasn't fake, somebody accidentally headbutted her. Looked creepy as hell though. And painful.
Costume I Wish I Would Have Done
I really just didn't give a shit this year. I didn't try. I spent twenty bucks and borrowed another from my brother. Sorry.
Most Seen Costume
I saw a lot of Lady Gaga's, Cruella De Vils and a few Wolverines. There were a ton of Lt. Dangles from Reno 911! Surprisingly, I only saw one Joker, which I thought would be all over the place. And only one Obama. Come on people! Did political satire die?
Best Costume
The second night was a tough one, because I was much more critical. I saw a lot of great stuff though. Two cops at our bar wore some pretty cool mustaches. Humpty Hump made an appearance. There were guys from Tool Academy. I saw a cowboy riding a gorilla (complete with stilts).
But my favorite of the night was a spot on Billy Mays - the OxyClean guy. He even yelled a lot. That's pretty awesome.
Costumes I Will Do Next Year If I Remember (but won't becasue I never remember to read my own old stuff)
Hulk Hogan, Pee Wee Herman or Peter Pan.
Until next costume season, enjoy the rest of the year people. Remember to play dress up as much as possible to prepare for Halloween 2010!
What were your favorite and least favorite costumes of the year?

Favorite this year other than Court's? (which we are still awaiting pictures on.)
A person dressed as a mouse with boxing gloves and a big black eye.
They were a knock-out mouse!
It's a science geek thing that only about two people may get but I thought it was pretty clever. ;-)
I didn't get it until you said science geek. Then I laughed really hard. That is awesome. Can you get someone to make a similar costume only instead of boxing gloves and a black eye, they glow green? (GFP mouse)
Hahahaha I think all you would need is a white mouse costume dyed green.
Probably even less people would get that one though.
Hey,
If you wanted to be recognized as Scotty immediately, you needed a scotch bottle, a pillow stuffed up under your shirt and a toe-tag *eg*
As Australia still hasn't caught on to the whole "wearing costumes" thing, I'm going to have to go with pics my American friends have sent me and say my favourite costumes this year were an ultra-creepy kitsune (Japanese werefox)- just a guy in a normal, black business suit with a creepily blank fox mask on- he looked like the canine equivalent of Michael Myers.
You look cute without your beard/stubble- I may have to give Andrei a well-deserved rest and start stalking you for a while *g*
Free at last! Free at last, Thank God Almighty I'm Free at last!!!!
Andrei- haha nice try. You will never escape my sensibly groomed clutches *g*
(Andrei goes and gets a hacksaw)
Oh no?
We'll see about that!
btw, shouldn't you be concerned with decreasing homophobia, not creating more by scaring the shit out of all the idiots that take stuff seriously around here? I know you are joking around and just being silly, but in case you missed it there are a lot of thick headed people who pass through here. Just a thought Gav, just a thought. ;-P
Dude, it didn't work for Cary Elwes, it ain't working for you *g*
And no, I'm not worried about the odd Republican Intelligent Designer getting the wrong idea. Still plenty of digging space left in my packed-earth sub-basement...
btw- above or below the wrist, Clarice?!
You should know me better than that by now. I was talking about hacking off YOUR hands, not mine. So I'll pose the question to you....above or below the wrist?
O.k. so you aren't worried about idiots taking you seriously, fine, what about appealing to your comedic sense. This joke is......Soooooo played by now!!!!
;-P
If you go as Peter Pan, you need to have a friend dress up in the same costume but in all black and be your shadow...
I went on a bus crawl Saturday and saw Peter Pan getting a handjob from Tinkerbell in the middle of a crowded dancefloor. Highlight of my Halloween.
My favorite was the Needs More Cowbell Guy - freaking hilarious, he walked around Pearl St. dancing around people and playing cowbell - simple yet brilliant.
My friends went to a Halloween party where there was a Lloyd AND Harry:
Court, just when I think you can't get any dumber, you go out and do something like this...And totally redeem yourself!
Me and my brother wore those exact same tuxedos for Halloween last year. I even went to a hair salon with a picture of Lloyd Christmas to get a bowl cut. And my brother, who is naturally blonde, grew out his hair for about 8 months. The ultimate finishing touch was the little bottle of breath spray that I used to casually spray people in the face.
The costumes were a huge success. However, at the last bar on our pub crawl, me and my brother got in a huge argument. He was trying to pick a fight with two other guys dressed up in lower quality orange and blue tuxes. He thought it would be hilarious to have an all out Harry & Lloyd vs. Harry & Lloyd brawl. I, on the other hand, felt that our time would be better spent trying to lure this redhead at the bar in to a threesome. I think she was dressed as the chick from that movie The Fifth Element with Bruce Willis. But at the time, I thought she looked like Mary Swanson.
