Halloween

[Kon16ov]

It's that time of year, and as a parent I've been roped into the hell that is picking out a halloween costume. After hours in these irritating novelty stores, I landed upon an aristocratic-looking vampire outfit. Whee. Half-way tempted to just start dressing like that all the time. Stupid business casual....

What's everyone else donning for the best thing imported from Ireland (besides Guinness....)? My 11-year-old just about settled on being an undead priest... almost. You?

Oh, and if you have the opportunity to buy a "goth-style finger ring," I recommend it. They're PERFECT for scratching that spot on your back you can ALMOST reach...

I should be a Black Metal dude. I hope the costume doesn't bankrupt me though.

well, i'm too old to trick-or-treat and too young (in theory) to have children that i have to get costumes for, so my halloween will probably be spent the same way as many nights: sitting around drunk off my ass looking for a monster movie marathon some dumbass channel cut the hell out of to watch, unless i can find some friends who'd like to engage in some petty vandalism/theft. so for halloween i'm going to be: a dumbass.

 

[Will Bozarth]

i get 20% off at the store i work at mwhahahaah



im going as Vlad the Impaler... the real Dracula, not the made up thing

 

[Karmic]

A bong.

Or a giant schlong.

Hold on, I dont dress up on halloween. No one here does.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Frank the demon rabbit from Donnie Darko. Or as 1/4 of a hair band with my friends.

 

[raiz]

ay pyrus, do you know somewhere that sells that mask? that thing was tits and ass.

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

chromatose and i will be going as jay and silent bob...perhaps zombie jay and silent bob

Really, for that all you'd need is white and black facepaint... Everything else is a bonus... from there, you can get a wig for about $15... the leather's what kills you...that's why late-80s metal was so cool. Get a big-ass blonde wig and you're set...jeans, a t-shirt and raiding your mom's makeup and it's done!

Was seriously thinking of going as Pinhead. Couldn't find it in the stores and didn't feel like finding and filing that many nails into a "bald-wig." Not to mention that bad-ass outfit...talk about going bankrupt....just try finding Cenobite clothing, these days...

We went broke anyway...two kids and two adults. Of course, my common-sense-half forbid the purchase of that nifty sword, so...had to go with what I could do within the limits of not terrifying our yuppie neighbors tooo badly. Probably better from a cost-perspective...it was ceremonial, not functional, but it was still kind of pricey...

 

[MajestikMøøse]

heheh, if I had some friends I would try to get them to all in on it and go as Immortal or Dimmu Borgir.

 

[Kvlt Wench]

I'm going to be Hel, the Norse goddess of death and the afterlife.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Probably nothing, most likely i will be going to a Shadows Fall, Killswitch Engage, and Lamb of God show...

 

[Super Mahrio]

Or a giant schlong.

id pay to see that!
Im going as Olga Viking Princess and im going to drink myself stupid at probably more than one party...My mom made me a killer viking skirt and my hat and tit-plate should be here probably next week!

 

[Yetti]

im gonna be at this show:

nile
vader
amon amarth
kreator
goatwhore

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

yeah, i'm goin to that tour also, isn't that such a sweet lineup of bands? I don't dislike any of them, and i love all of them except Kreator

 

[Darth Grimby]

Not sure what I'm going to wear this year, but I've already got my daughter's costume: a dolphin. When she tried it on, she thought she was a monster so she started growling like one. Thus: she's one of the "killer dolphins" from that episode of The Simpsons.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Aaargh, I hate you guys. I can't see Kreator cause of the fucking SAT IIs. You bastards.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

More importantly you'll be missing Nile, Vader, Amon Amarth, and Goatwhore

 

[AjDeath]

More importantly you'll be missing Nile, Vader, Amon Amarth, and Goatwhore

Amon Amarth maybe, but Kreator kills these other bands, wait...yeah they do.

I am going to go as a drunk for Halloween, wait, yeah I am.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Nile are fucking amazing..... I love nile. Especially In their darkened shrines. Great album.
