My buddy Tye is an oil man from There Will Be Blood, and I'm Ryan Gosling from Drive. Which would have been way cooler of my god damn driver's jacket delivered on time, but whatever.
Not sure, just got invited to a friend's party, so i'll just prolly stop by some store and pick up some arbitrary costumes so that i can mix them up into something decent... or maybe just the grim reaper costume, since it is easy.
i dont plan on having a party or getting a costume. ill just go play and beat dead space 1 and 2 in one sitting followed by the alien movies(excluding 4) you know... enjoy having no life.
@Milkman: Yeah, I'm in Philadelphia and we are actually going to cancel Halloween at the house this year due to the possible storm. Sucks because Halloween is huge in my neighborhood. Last year we went through $300 in candy.
I'm basing the cancellation on all the other hype suckers. I know not to fall into the panic of what the weather people tell us...
Just in case I do a few bags of candy ready to go...and I guess I'll just slap on a crazy wig or something.
I didn't celebrate Halooween this year. I live in Sweden so we don't really do it in the same amount as americans do BUT we do dress up from time to time and have fun. This year I didn't do it though but I thought I could share earlier years costumes instead.
Two years ago. Non specific but quite cool skeleton:ish creature.
From one year ago. Me as Sander Cohen (girlfriend as Crimson Viper)
I've got a Breaking bad cooking costume sorted, got a gas mask, yellow coveralls and I'm making blue rock candy hopefully. It was between that or Dr Who and I settled on that.
On a related note anyone here know if Corn syrup exists in the UK or does it go by a different name because all the shops I go to don't have a clue what it is.
Already got my partyin' done as Walter from Big Lebowski. Half-assed costume since I did it a few years back, but I had very little notice! My favorite costume of the night, though, was my friend who was "a Canadian." He had a fuzzy hat, a tucked in denim shirt, drank Molson Canadian and said "sowry" to everyone he bumped into.
@SpicyRichter: Hey, that's pretty exciting and not boring of you, going to class. Well done sir!
Point missed, if I had the time this year I'd be out, unfortunately prior obligations got in the way. Alls I'm saying is, if you're posting on this site, you're hardly a mature adult
We don't celebrate halloween over here in Australia (despite the enormous pressure of the Supermarkets to get us to celebrate it - it's embarrassing - every year they put out "halloween!" stalls and every year no one buys the candy or celebrates Halloween).
But if I DID celebrate Halloween, I'd wrap tin foil around my head and arms and go "Beep-Boop-I-am-a-robot-man".

Yeah that sounds about right for here too. People will still use it as an excuse to get drunk though, mostly cause they'd be drinking anyway.
I probably won't be doing anything, because I'm in a dorm (so no trick-or-treaters) and honestly not aware if anything's holding any parties that night or w/e, so I probably won't dress up, but I'll get some candy and watch a couple horror movies instead.

Really? Video games are for kids so our appreciation of them means we are not mature - is what what you mean? Your idea of maturity seems similar to a teenager's who thinks drinking and smoking means they're an adult. Being a mature adult doesn't mean you have to wear tweed, reading classic literature in the evening while drinking cognac and then having lackluster sex with your spouse in missionary position once a week.
China doesn't celebrate Halloween (at least around here, since Hong Kong certainly does). Besides, never went trick-or-treating or to Halloween parties ever in my life.

Or if it does, I pray to god I never get there.
The amount of people missing this guy's point is amazing. He is pointing out that the people in this thread saying adults celebrating Halloween are lame are being haters and hypocritical. They are saying adults going to a Halloween party are immature. Many people also think playing video games as an adult is immature. Since we are all on a video game website, it is safe to say we are all OK with the idea of adults participating in a supposed child's past time. THUSLY, to say adults participating in the child's activity of playing video games is OK but adults participating in the child's activity of going to a Halloween party is immature is both dumb and hypocritical. Cripes. *
Anyway, Sandy has washed out most of my Halloween plans. As of now I plan to stay home and plow through the Walking Dead episodes, assuming I have power.
* Halloween is the second highest grossing holiday after Christmas, so clearly lots of "grown-ass" people enjoy the holiday as well. People aren't spending 5 billion a year on kids' costumes and candy alone.
@SpicyRichter: I didn't miss your point. I was simply making a comedic observation as to the juxtaposition of your words. But apparently every mother fucker on this site thinks I'm 100% serious about everything at all times.
Jokes are tough, especially when the entire audience thinks they're better than you :)
