    Halloween Costume Ideas

    Here comes that time of year again where I have to figure out a good, simple, practical, inexpensive costume to wear for Halloween, since I don't have my Donnie Darko skeleton hoodie anymore.

    Any ideas?

    Anything you want specifically? Maybe get yourself a black fedora, make sure you hide your hair, get some sunglasses and a cheap mask, then you're Heisenberg. You can also buy some blue pop rocks and put them in a plastic bag. Or, if you really want to be cheap (and corny), wear a Fox brand shirt and put some make-up on your face and then you're The Fox. Haha, yeah these are pretty lame

    It is a little late to design a costume.

    You could be one of the millions of zombies. If you have old cloths that you have planned to discard; then, you can slash them with a knife. Get some dark makeup from the pharmacy, and combine that with fake blood kits available in many stores.
    Use whatever OS or desktop works for you. Dual boot or use VMs if you want. Backup your computer regularly, and definitely before upgrading, partitioning, or installing an OS.

    Thrift stores have some strange clothing at times.

    Yep, you can also use that clothes to be a hobo, hehe. I say it depends on what you're doing. If you're actually going to trick or treat, then it's best to pick something recognizable. If party, then anything you want goes, so you don't have to spend as much time designing it

    A zombie would actually work out pretty well considering what I'm going to do with my friends. Unfortunately, I have no ripped clothes :/ (First world problem, right?)

    I think I might just go as a 1950's Greaser, since I have a leather jacket and everything. I might upload a pic later to get your opinions on how it looks.

    LOL, I remember the 50's. Blue jeans, t-shirts, loafers, and jackets. I used Brylcreem to slick my hair back in those days.

    You remember the fifties? How old are you? lol

    And I'll have to check out that Blycreem. I've been looking for something to slick my hair back with for ages, and I'm tired of cheap 99cents store sport gel.

    If only I had a car to drive. I have a 1970 Monte Carlo, a 1950 Chevy, a 1948 Studebaker Commander, and a 1957 Pontiac Star Chief, and not one of them is capable of driving (legally, anyways).
