Clicky Poll: Halloween

Re: Clicky Poll: Halloween

  • Nah--I've always been one to wear silly or original costumes. I rarely wear scary ones either. The one time I did scary was when I couldn't figure out what I wanted to be, so I bought a Juliet costume at the last minute, then made it to where I was Juliet after she killed herself.  Had the knife sticking out of my chest and all, with blood staining around it.  It was fun.

  • I voted no/what's the point... that's just not me. I have a work-related event tonight with a costume contest. I don't want to compete, but I didn't want to be totally lame and NOT come in costume. So I decided on Rosie the Riveter. I just found out my boss has never heard of Rosie the Riveter and even after showing him a picture of the "We Can Do It" image with the yellow background... he said he'd never seen it before.

    So... Am I crazy? Fear is creeping in that this is going to be a long night of people having no idea what the heck I'm supposed to be!!!

  • I think the last time I dressed up was probably 9th or 10th grade, and even then it was probably just ears or something (I really don't remember specifics). So no, I have never worn a slutty costume.

  • Wow, for me it was HOW MANY, not if ever.  but back in the day i was pretty hot and a late bloomer so i was livin' it up. My roommate and i were sexy sherrifs one year. i had red snakeskun pants, a tight shirt, snakeskin hat, red furry handcuffs, holster, belt, whip, and badge. oh yeah stilletos too. my roomie did black with leopard.  another year i was a sexy vampiress that was a cross between dracula and elvira-like dress. that was a bad hair year. i used a huge gob of pomade to smooth my black sprayed hair back in a slick style.  it took weeks for that crap to come out of my hair... even after washing in dawn, tide, etc.  i was a sexy but not slutty renaissance princess one year with ample cleavage.  the list goes on.  i say work it while you got it.

    What? How old is your boss? Or is from another country? If he's from here, he must have slept through history class.

    LOL! That's awesome :) 

    And my boss is mid 30s, from this country. And thank you for putting my fears at ease :)

  • hmm.  let's see... i have been sexy cavegirl, sexy star trek girl, sexy doctor, and in the heyday of Tim the Toolman Taylor and Home Improvement, I dressed like Heidi the sexy tool girl.

    All except the star trek mini-dress were home-made.  God bless my dad, who pinned faux-fur fabric to my bra for me when i was being sexy cavegirl.  He also went out into the backyard,  cut a stick of our tree, and whittled a spearhead out of a piece of wood he had laying around.  he made me that spear in like 45 minutes!!!

     

    i was probably like 25.  i think he probably really wanted me to have an awesome slutty costume so i could find a damn husband...lol. 

  • i only voted special b/c i never have, but not b/c i "don't see the point" or that i "never would"....i just simply haven't. they times i "could" (i.e. college/early 20s) and had a reason to dress up, i just never did. which is suprising, b/c i was a pretty slutty dresser sometimes. maybe i had my fill of day-to-day slutty dressing and didn't feel the need to go all out slutty on halloween?
  • Dana, lol!!!!

  • When I was, oh, 24 or so, me and my roommates dressed up as Moulin Rouge (similar to the music video).  We put together a routine and everything for a party.  We got our costumes at a stripper store - corsets, hot pants and fishnets.  We were a hit.  Wink
