We are inviting families and the whole 9. There will be a ton of kids running around causing havoc, beer for the dads & baby shit for the missuses.
My wife is going as a woman with some giant ball shaped thing hanging off her stomach. I, on the other hand, haven’t a fucking clue as to what to be.

Option 1: unrated baby shower costume- go as a stork.
Option 2: Possibly r-rated, possibly deep and profoundly metaphorical baby shower costume -wear a baseball uniform, tie a baby doll to the bat and go as a baby batter. Or just wear the uniform and carry a doll instead of a bat (safer version).
One of the local accountants went as a calculator a couple of years ago. I didn’t happen to speak to him to see how he did it, but it was a thick type of cardboard painted black, with plastic over foam for the buttons.
I dressed up as Blaine Edwards from Men on Film when I was like 11 or so. I wish I could find the pics, they are so fucking priceless!
I pained my face this coppery brown and wore brown gloves and a clown wig I spray painted black (for a fro!). I also had on a little hat and I made a cape and these frilly things on my sleeves…amazing. Who lets their kid go out like that!!! Dressed as a gay black man. HAHA! My mom, that’s who.
Anyways, I just realized that I loved dressing as a guy since even as youngster! Bit shady, really.

no pirate this year that corsets too big now (yay lol)
BUT not spending the money unless I get invited somewhere better than my current options.
And if I do will post pics.
My first pic posted on TNation was actually in last year’s Halloween thread… ah, the memories.[/quote]

make (or buy I’d you’re not into the handmade costume thing) a leopard print leotard and then wear black boots and a fake curly mustache and be an old school strong man from the circus. You could even make a fake “1,000LB dumbbell” to carry around.
Get a red wig, use a marker to give yourself lots of feckles and go as a gross ginger.
Come up with a motorcycle cop outfit (blue slacks tucked into boots and a long sleeve blue shirt) throw some patches from the army navy store on it, then put some silver plastic “blown out bullet holes” on the front and go as the T1,000 from terminator 2. Would be evern more baller if you could come up on a helmet.
Sleeveless shirt, Viking wig/beard from the store, jeans, boots, fake tattoo sleeve, headband, sunglasses = Biker
One time I bought green women’s spandex yoga pants and a a spandex turtleneck long sleeve dress which I cut the dress part off of. Sewed a felt question mark on the front, wore some purple gloves and a purple mask and was “The Riddler”… It was a big hit.[/quote]

With that power stache the possibilities are endless!!!
How popular do you think that will be this year?[/quote]
I’m hoping not too popular … I started looking for “THE” costume right after the first episode … FX just started selling it so…hopefully the price tag will turn some people off … it’s around $100 right now

You played a good Prince as well, didn’t you?[/quote]
HAH! Well I don’t know if I was a “good” Prince - but I did dress up as Prince!
I think I just may have penis envy, or mustache envy. Here’s a run down of the past:
Sonny (Sonny and Cher)
Dr. Gonzo (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)
Les Grossman (Tropic Thunder)
Prince
Its just so much fun to be a dude! Essentially I just play a stereotype with a giant sock in my pants and a mustache. But chicks love it. And so do men. Its pretty gross. And totally awesome!
I guess I’m just not one for “slutty [insert occupation here]” - I mean, what’s the fun of that? Halloween is to dress up as something you’re not.

this is an easy one. Google baby zombie shirt, there’s a great looking costume with a zombie baby that pops out of the stomach of the shirt, PERFECT for ya
