RMK 3 #31 September 17, 2013 Most fun I've had with a Halloween costume consisted of a pink shower curtain with polyester fibrefill stuffed underneath with arm/leg holes to make me blob. Then made a small wooden chair from Balsa wood to wear on my head. Won a contest and all evening people were seeking me out to ask what I was supposed to be - the answer "bubblegum under a chair""Pain is the best instructor, but no one wants to attend his classes" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtlespeed 212 #35 September 17, 2013 LuckyMcSwervyTHIS one is COOL!! Conservative . . . A more non conventional costume might be to walk around with a pressure cooker and a very curly hairdo.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, and you know skydivers can come up with some really offensive costumes... like the one dressed as a priest with a little kid prop with its face attached to his crotch. Years ago my friend's cousin went to a party in a wheelchair and dressed as superman with a breathing tube taped to his neck - an allusion to Christopher Reeve's horrific neck injury falling off his horse. When he showed up, the party went so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. His wife refused to go in with him.
