HELP! Need a quickie last minute costume idea..

[kami]

My procrastinating ass strikes again :|

party tonight and I need quick costume idea...i tried google and stuff but all of them are too elaborate and I have to go and buy stuff which I'm not too keen on. Don't really have the time (and don't wanna spend the money).

To give you an idea of the type I am looking for (something simple but effective), here is an idea I liked but can't do it:

Get some old NES or SNES controllers, attach them to me (hanging on the cords) and wear a "Play with me" sign. All I have on me is Xbox controllers which are freakin beasts, and I can't find anyone with old controllers.

HELP! Someone's gotta know something simple but effective that I can make up. I don't ask much of you guys, don't let me down now

What we're doing is we bought old clothes from a thrifty store and cut holes in them and burned the holes. Tonight we'll put some black paint on face and spike our hair and spray it. Struck by lightening. CHeap.

Or you can pin bits of clothing to you and a bounce sheet and stuff. "STatic cling"

i can't even get to a thrift store though

my friend just gave me this idea...does it sound good or lame?

put a bunch of disks on and a sign that says, "insert where?"

LAME!!!! ..... unless you're going to a ATOT Halloween party My friend did this.. it was great.... put on a pair of running spandex pants, boxers over the pants, a tight shirt, a sheet as a cape, and fashon an eye mask out of an old shirt or spare cloth. All of this equals THE DRUNKEN AVENGER!!!!!

Do you have access to cardboard? You could probably whip up something using that and string. tape, foil, whatever.

What kind of effect you looking for? Gore/blood? Traditional scary? What?

my friend just called me, haha i dumped it on her to find something. im going as a pirate apparently.

i needed a quick costume so i just wore a little black and cut out hot chicks from magazines and taped them onto me. I was a Chick Magnet. people thought it was hilarious

Have anything that'd serve as makeup to use on your face to give you white/black cow spots?

nothing in particular, just something unique...more on the funny side. not in the mood for bloodying myself up

well, i'll keep it in mind...sounds pretty funny. hehe


anyone else?

 

[AUMM]

if you can get a toilet seat ( prefferably clean one) and a crown u can be a "royal flush"

Not very funny per se, but kinda unique, and not sure how you'd do it, but dress as a DNA strand, a germ, something along those lines.

As for funny, dress up as a why did the chicken cross the road joke (again, dunno how to pull it off).

gotta give another bump..... it's gettin late!

Orange jumpsuit, blonde wig, handcuffs... Go as Martha Stewart

 

[FettsBabe]

Take cereal boxes and glue them to old clothes or to a cardboard box that is cut to fit you. Stick knives through the boxes and you are a serial killer.

If you have a friend with you...you can go as a brick and they can go as a brick layer.

 

[FlashG]

OK,

For an Alpha Sig party, many years ago, my wife took 4 pieces of white styrofoam and pasted red construction paper blocks on the outside.

She went as a brick.

I wore an old construction bib overall an old hat and had a trawl.

I was the brick layer.

Everyone loved it.

 

[FlashG]

FettsBabe,

That?s just too weird. I didn?t even read your post before I posted the same suggestion.


I guess great minds must think alike.


Oh Oh you'r in trouble.

 

[kami]

Thanks for all your ideas, but none are really that feasible with stuff i have...argh!

anythin else?

 

[kami]

OK here's another extremely simple idea someone gave me...

Get a plain t-shirt and put a huge question mark on it and underneath it put "use your imagination"

what do you think of that?

 

[raptor13]

Wear pants but no shirt. You don't need makeup or anything, either... just no shirt.


Q: What are you supposed to be?
A: I'm a premature ejaculation.

<Silence>

Q: What?
A: I came in my pants!

pretty weak, man, pretty damn weak

FYI.... i think i'm using the "chick magnet" suggestion as i have tons of old Maxims / Stuff magazines lying around

my friends so far love it

 

[kami]
