I don't understand a single costume idea here so far except Nabu's and Elmo, so if the others are representative, it's just as well I am not going to a party, it would obviously be a frustrating experience.
Number 21 from "The Venture Brothers".
Classic or modern?
Lots of looking into to the mirror and saying "Oh Boy!".
Last Halloween I went as a kitchen. I just taped shit from my kitchen on to a hoodie.

I am a happily committed dude and you are a happily married woman and so it is not awkward to tell you that such a costume is an incredibly transgressively hot idea, right?
Because it totally is.
(jayelle, why can't you be Roger and your husband be Jessica?)Because that would make baby jeebus cry.

It would be hard to fake having 9 PhDs, though.If Scott Bakula could pull it off, I see no reason why you can't.

Actually, if you went as Sam Beckett-as-a-lady and then your fella went as Captain Archer from ENTERPRISE, that'd be Full Geek Win.
Sometimes I don't know what the fuck y'all are talking about and I'm cool with that.
You should watch 30 Rock (http://www.hulu.com/30-rock). It is quite possibly the best-written show on television right now. I have recently (this week?) gotten hooked on it and now Pedro is giving me a hard time because I neglected (refused?) to watch it for the first 4 years it was on.

On the other hand, feel free to not watch any tv at all. Please.
...but now I realize that that's bullshit and that there's about the same ratio of signal to noise in both places.
I'm not sure I follow your argument here. Do you stay away from television because of the poor signal to noise ratio or because it's a huge time suck or because most of it really blows? Is the internet a huge time suck because of the poor signal to noise ratio or because of the infinite choices and instant availability?
My son gets home from school at 4 and he's too tired and wound up to do anything else just then, so we have cookies and apple juice and talk about what Grover is doing this week and it's just a really nice time.
My wife is so sick of talking about Grover.
On a related note: Good on you denizens here with kids. I don't have any, and I think all I'd have time to do for them if I did have them is pitch them a rawhide bone and fresh straw once a day.
Pet Peeve: the local costume shop put out a flier with about 150 costumes for ladies. They were all "slutty + easily recognizable career or character = Halloween costume." This pisses me off. I love Halloween for its ties to its hard edge, pre-Christian roots: fear, other-worldliness, demons and death. The only thing about being slutty that is remotely scary is the potential for catching an STI, but there's a cream or pill for most of those these days (we're talking mild annoyance and discomfort). I'm not saying there's anything wrong with airing out your inner slut every so often, but I'm telling you there wasn't a single actually Halloween-y costume on the entire flier for women. They were all sexualized versions of what you'd expect: nurse, police officer, wench, old time-y saloon hooker... The men's section had a goodly amount of non-sexualized choices, but for the ladies it was totally "these are my tits. PS, I'm a bunny."
Kali is pretty rad. I actually have a hand carved Hindu demon mask, with gold leaf and sticking out tongue and all, and thusly inspired, I think maybe I will wear that to hand out candy to the trick or treaters, and just, like, grunt and pant in response to any conversation. That could be fun.
I'm all for cute and sexy undergarments, but not really of the squishing/forcing/restricting kind.
Edit: Well, unless it's necessary for the story, y'know.
Heh, before your ninja edit, I was going to say:
"That's a darn shame, because a good stiff corset can be a blessing as well as a curse."
It's possible this (http://www.extremerestraints.com/chastity-devices_26/strict-leather-gates-of-hell-chastity-device_773.html) is more your style...
(Really, really NSFW, or the faint of heart.)
There's also this (http://www.bodyaware.com/MZ-showdetail?itemid=C005&returnurl=MI-DI&returncap=Return+to+the+gallery&returnpro=default&cid=9E11.1C4C&dtind=40465.8255995486) (the picture is oddly prudish - I've always been disappointed with that aspect of that retailer), which is actually pretty cool.
So that's some kind of... dick chain?
Or like a dick chain. Kinda dick chain-y.
He's always on!
I saw those, too, but they weren't as scary-looking as the one I linked to, and I was trying to provoke exactly the response I got from Paul (thanks for that, BTW).
You know, even if I were single and had the money, I wouldn't wear guy-Spanx but not because I don't have problems with my body image. I totally do. I hate that I'm heavy. I hate goddamned looking in mirrors. It is one of the ways I am not stereotypically male, I am acutely and painfully aware that I am not conventionally attractive.
However, I think that a temporary shaping undergarment would just make me feel worse not better because at the end of the day, you have to get naked to fuck and...
I guess in my mind, that's the situation I would really wanna BE conventionally attractive so it still wouldn't do me any good.
It'd just make me feel worse.
I'll just post this link without commentary so as not to detract from the dick cage conversation. (http://damncoolpics.blogspot.com/2010/10/35-sad-pugs-in-costumes.html)

I wish I were joking.
I think the deal is that the women who actually want to wear a costume for Halloween -- and not just use it as an excuse to make the cleavage -- are exactly the same women who can/will make their own costumes. Hence no one is marketing to them.
I'm planning on getting a red shit
Halloween is special to us since that is the night we met last year (moments after this (http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs049.snc3/13659_516197045630_80901038_30810885_3900055_n.jpg) picture was taken)
I was all set to make a mask based on this (http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs225.snc1/7235_164872907189_667377189_3329520_6298415_n.jpg) (I had the perfect old sweater I was going to use for material, and I found a pair of vintage dentures I was going to order) but then I showed the picture to my GF and she said she wouldn't go near me all night if I was wearing it.
whatever that was supposed to be next to the giraffe up there is an amazing prediction of south park's snooki
I thought the giraffe was genious.
Spouse and I have decided to attend a party, I'll be a ginourmous jersy cow with nasty-real udders and she want to wear a rather snappy milk-maid costume.
Nah, we ain't thinking dirty.

Okay... we found ONE picture of myself in the costume at the show, after a lot of online searching.

Personally, this Halloween my costume will be "guy on vacation who gives not one shit about Halloween. On vacation."

I was sure that the reality of "Elmo dressed as a ghost" could never match the awesomeness of the pure idea of it, but I was wrong.
That's a pretty solid costume as well, and I don't even know what it's in reference to.

after mis-hearing a customer at my store, my new favorite replacement for the n-word in casual speech is "neighbor."
"man, I told you he my neighbor!"
Oh fuck!
It's getting real miracly up in this CUNT!
of course, what it makes me imagine is a rapper making a song where he samples "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" and makes it "Won't You Be My n-word"
I love that his mouth is so ajar.

My Costume (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pmcd9/5134896802/)
There was a costume contest and one group of winners had the same Birds costume.
Wait is this a thing? Like, that costume is some type of pop culture thing and not just a girl with birds stuck on her? What is it from?

I think it's from a movie called The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down.
Hitchcock? That schmuck?
(I have never seen a Hitchcock film and don't know anything about him. I have heard his name. I can also guarantee The Big Lebowski is a better film.)
I have seen enough films to know that the only acceptable arguments for best all time movie are The Big Lebowski and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

Psycho, Rope, and Dial M for Murder are worth your time, though.
damn, the big lebowski is so stupid. no matter how many times I watch it and tell myself I'll like it this time, it makes me laugh 3 times tops.Oh geez.

We dressed them up in their costumes and took them over to the main bar/restaurant, where they ate pizza, gave glowsticks/bracelets to the staff, and generally enjoyed being the center of attention. A few complete strangers bought them candy from the hotel gift shop. So they had a good time, despite no proper trick-or-treating.

Oh man. Rope is so freaking cool. Two guys kill a buddy, stuff him in a trunk, and proceed to have a dinner party (including corpsey's girlfriend) RIGHT ON the trunk. Almost the whole movie done in a single tracking shot. InTENSE. But yeah, watching that man get high was good too.
wasn't nothin spoiled in that post that ain't spoiled in the first ten minutes of the movie. plus it's damn sixty years old so anybody it spoils it's they own fault
