1. Costume
in a bag Sure, prepackaged
costumes are a
quick and easy solution for
your what
to dressup
as dilemmas ...
but you’re
guaranteed to
be one of
19 other
French
maids or
ninja turtles
at the
party. |
2. Plastic
Politicians They’re creepy,
cheap and make everyone feel
uncomfortable. (Who invited
Blago to the party?) |
| 3. Slutty Anything Ladies, please. Halloween is a chance to express your wild side, but does everyone really have to see, well, everything? This Halloween season stay away from the slutty lifeguard/ firefighter/ MT/athlete/professor/ cat/vampire/war heroes/ witch/ librarian/carsalesman/ politician/preschool teacher/ cleaning lady/ Amish women/ colonial frontierswoman/ Dorothy/ nurse/nun outfits so many of you anticipate throwing on all year. | 4. Sexual
Doctors Guys: You are
not a doctor. And if you were
the general public should
run…fast. Please no “Dr. Boo
B. Grabber”
or
“Dr. Felter
Snatch” or
“Dr. Pee
Ping Tom.”
You are
the type of
guys ladies
should
avoid on
Halloween
night. |
5. The
Prairie
Star- ‘Nuff said. |
6. The
Wizard of
Oz Avoid Dorothy & the rest
of the Wizard of Oz Gang.
(And no, sexy Dorothy does
not make it okay! It makes it
worse). |
7. Bulky
Objects Full bodied costumes- I’m
talking any sort of full bodysuit
that makes you look like
a giant banana, a keg, a sumo
wrestler, a condom(?) or a
cow. They
make you
sweaty
and a bit
smelly, not
to mention
fellow
partygoers
get sick of
you shoving
past
and making
them
spill their party punch. |
8. Hippie
Posers Do you even
know what a hippie is? Throwing
on a leather fringe vest,
bell bottoms, a beaded head
band and a peace sign necklace
DOES NOT mean you are a
hippie. Back
in the day
hippies stood
for something
super important
man,
or they at
least looked
like they
did. Avoid
making the
peace sign
your pose of
choice for the
night; trust
me, you don’t look cool. |
9. Michael
Jackson We’re all
aware that Michael Jackson
died over the summer, but
can we please let the King of
P-O-P, R-I-P? |
10. Senior
Citizens Your grandparens
wouldn’t dress in
skinny jeans, graphic tees
and scarves for Halloween.
Why disgrace your elders by
donning high-waisted pants,
tall socks and orthopedic
sneakers? |
