Halloween humor

I think this year I should just settle on a clown because every tutorial I've tried to follow to make a glamorous face mask, I just ended looking like a clown. My look came out each time a cross mix of these. :grin::bowknot::zombierolleye:

Keeping it simple works better. As a kid, I dressed as a Hobo, rubbing a bunt cork on my cheeks to look like dirt. Add an old man's hat and jacket and baggie pants & carry a stick with a red work hankie tied up to hold hobo treasures. :)

If only I could just throw on my my old stand bys. I have two weeks to get it right. Two or four five more tries later in the week and then I'm quite possibly done and will just go as myself a ichy which. :D
 
What does your Halloween costume say about you?

Halloween is almost here – which means picking out a costume for parties. But did you know that your costume choice says a lot about you?


Dr. Scott Bea, psychologist at the Cleveland Clinic, said our real personalities can shine through when we dress up.


“As human beings we’re often inhibited if people can recognize us or know who you are,” he said. “If we put on a mask or an outfit, all of a sudden we can be somebody else and the range of our behavior gets to expand and we have a little bit more fun.”


Bea said if you dress like a celebrity, it may be because you like to have a sense of power or popularity. For those who choose a sexy costume, it could be that you want to show a side of yourself you normally repress.


Scary characters like frightening clowns or monsters give people a chance to safely express their dark side – without feeling guilty or embarrassed.


When it comes to dressing like comic books and cartoon characters, Bea said they represent a playful attitude, even for people who typically have a serious nature.


But in the end, Bea said the important thing about picking out a costume is making sure it is something you will have fun wearing.


“They say we can only let about 20 percent of our real personality leak out in our workplace. When you’re being a parent you have to conform to a certain set of standards, but on Halloween we get to play a little bit, so we can expand the range of who we are in a real pleasant and fun way,” he said.
 
Well, last year she was Princess Leia, but this year she wanted to match my costume. A Stormtrooper and Darth Vader does go together, both in the Star Wars movies and Halloween.

In the photo, she is wearing a Female Stormtrooper costume. It's a black nylon jump suit w/a zipper back. The difference between the male costume and the female one is the chest. The man's has a flat chest. The man's also has the white armor on both sides of the arms/legs, whereas the female one only has the armor on the front. Her helmet is a full-size one and much better than the one that came with the costume. The Blaster came from Toy's-R-Us. It was originally white/orange (Nurf brand). I'm painting the who thing black, as in the movies. Her white ankle boots, were bought separately also. The black gloves she already had. When she put the entire costume on last weekend, I was really amazed at how really good it looked on her. Her entire costume cost $145.

Mine cost a little more, b/c of the chest box I'm wearing. It got it from a guy that built/sold them on e-bay last year. It has sequence lights, breathing and Earl Thomas Jones (Darth Vaders) voice. It cost us $99 and it well worth it.

Last year I was pretty much the hit at a Costume Party, but this year, we will both be the HIT!! We don't mind the attention we get at all.


:coolpics: CR thanks for sharing, you both wear the outfits well. LOL!
 
Don't get me started on bad Halloween jokes! I won't stop!

Q: What do spirits have for breakfast?

A: Ghost toast!
