Didnt say it was new. 😛 I tried.

I'll probably go as Hannibal Lecter. Or I might steal that Twister idea from you. 🙂

hehehehe... heres another politically incorrect idea... dress up as a female and tape random stuff to you like play house, micro machines, dolls, etc.. and call your self katrina.....

*snicker* That...is soooo bad!



Wear pink leotards, pink tights, pink hood, and put a shoe on top of your head... You can be gum underneath the shoe.*



*not my idea 😉
 
I was Strong Bad last year. This year my GF wants us to go as Zorro and whoever the hell Catherine Zeta Jones is in the movie.
My roommate was Mr. Peepers (SNL) two years ago... that was pretty funny.
 
You know, a good costume idea for people who don't want to dress up is just putting a sign around your neck that says "Nudist on Strike". Last year my girlfriend and I dressed up as characters from "Where the Wild Things Are". I went as the monster and she went as the little boy. It was fun. We made our own costumes for like two bucks because we got all the stuff at the thrift store.

Then we went to another party on another day and I went as John the Baptist because I have a huge beard, and she went as a cave woman. It was dope.

I like that one. :beer:
 
I''ll give you my idea on Nov. 1st. 😉

sorry, can't give up the ultimate costume idea, it is copyrighted till all hallow's eve

It's very much in the same tone as your OP

Everytime I mention the idea alone to people, they can't stop laughing
 
You could dress in a devil costume and put bills on your chest and be Hell to Pay.
How about as a cloud with a big 9 on it and tell girls that you can put them on Cloud 9.

In recent years, I've gone to parties as some pretty clever costume ideas, and am needing to get one for this year

Past ideas:

- Wrapped self in Maxim photos of wominz with a sign around neck reading "Caution: Chick Magnet"
- Wore a complete king outfit and attached a urinal to the front complete with fake urine and went as a "Royal Flush"
- Cut a hole in a twister board and wore as poncho. Rebadged the twister spinner to say things like "kiss left cheek" and "shake booty"
- Wrapped self in wrapping paper from head to toe and wore a big gift sticker reading "From: God To: Women"


any thoughts for '05?

I'm very surprised at the lack of creativity on this forum.

good job on cleverness, but it's been done a ton of times already

come on, guy, that's about as played out as dressing up as superman


No offense, but I have personally seen the chick magnet and God's gift costumes numerous times over the past decade. Supprised no one else called you on that. But citing those as evidence of "your" creative/clever costume ideas and then criticizing other "played out" ideas is :thumbsdown:

yep, i did that chick magnet thing about 3 years back and the royal flush has been done wayyyyyyyyy before then
 
i saw these dudes one year that had taken a day bed and put it on rollers... then two of them dressed up like doctors, and the third dressed up like a woman giving birth. A fourth was a baby and they had fashioned the bed so that it would appear that the 'baby' was half out of the mother.... very elaborate and hilarious
