IT IS TIME TO TALK ABOUT HALLOWEEN

I found the perfect pair of shoes (omg shoes) for this costume, so I think I have to do it:

Herman; P.W. Herman.

Damn,. footwear? You are making a serious costume....of an in-context parody of a character played by a man caught wanking in a pornographic movie house.

I wish I lived in your neighborhood. I would totally hang out with you on Halloween....wearing a trench coat.

-actually does wear an old flasher style coat.

I'll totally wear some white tassel loafers in day to day life, but not til after memorial day.

Did I mention I've become a huge style dork?

Does that mean you watch "Project Runway"?

[donosaur]

That is "fashion", my good man, not style.

Okay, now I have a couple options. Plan A is, as I mentioned before, the Lincoln from the "Gay Bar" video. It's like...Lincoln from the neck up, Richard Simmons from the neck down. Since I'll be going to an extremely hot rock show, this is appealing.

But last week while at a drag show with my girlfriend, I was joking around about going as the slutty Bride of Frankenstein, and she loved the idea. No idea what to do, but I suspect Lincoln would be cheaper. And I wouldn't have to shave for it.

I mean, technically, I wouldn't have to shave for the Bride, either, but it'd probably be good form.

Thoughts?

My girlfriend's making a Wolf Man costume out of real fur (not from dead things). I'll probably throw on Heidern again. We'll make an odd party couple.

...Werewolves can be mercenaries if they want!

Scourge, the good thing about Abe and the Monster's Mate is that you essentially just need to turn your head upside down to go from one to the other. Failing that, go with Abe. Drag is much more common than outright camp, at least in my experience, and I'll always go with the uncommon unless I'm particularly tired.

Go play Contra: Hard Corps (or you'd probably know it as Probotector: Hard Corps) and check out the werewolf dude. He's got a gunarm and SUNGLASSES. He's so 90s it hurts.

(Actually, I don't know if he was in Probotector. Robots, and all.)

[Gomess]

Funnily enough, I grew up with Contra and never heard of Probotector. I consider the UK a part of Europe (unlike a lot of folks here), but it was a bit of an anomaly when it came to imports in the early 90s. I'm sure we got Probotector, like, but I grew up playing Contra III on my friend's SNES with its weird purple buttons, and a French-imported Street Fighter II machine with the Japanese names down the arcade. You can imagine trying to argue "The BOXER'S called M. Bison!!" at age 8. Sometimes I thought I'd dreamt it. =p

I'll have to check out this Turbo Werewolf Generation 2. Claire and I rarely try to match whenever we do something fancy!

[Onslaught Six]

Huh, that's strange as hell.
