Your Halloween

[Magus]

I traipsed around West Village again. And while it was fun hanging with Princess Mononoke we were seriously disappointed in the complete lack of creative costumes this year. Either NO ONE was dressed up or everyone had ****ty masks they just bought or girls/women were a Slutty Fill-in-the-blank. And this is THOUSANDS of people. WTF, New York.

Meanwhile, back home in Joizey, only 24 kids showed up and maybe half of them were in costume, according to mi madre.

Is Halloween dead? Or is it just some horrible plague in my area? I remember kids EVERYWHERE when I was younger and we stayed out trick-or-treating till our feet ached. But this was back in the early 90s before terrorists were raping America's children.

I dunno. I FEEL LIKE AN OLD MAN.

So how'd you spend your holiday? Did you work? Did you buy a ****ty mask and call that a costume?

I'm trying to figure out if you were describing your Halloween or the costume party at the Pav. I think it's the former.

But I just stayed inside. I barely noticed it was a holiday. I didn't even carve one of my Jack-o'-Cathedrals this year.

Huh. Didn't consider that. Well. Both, I guess!

Re: Your Halloween

I didn't want to get all make uped again so I borrowed a bunch of old clothes from my girlfriend's dad, got a cassette walkman, suspenders and big headphones, loading it up with huey lewis and the news and went to a party as Marty McFly. It was pretty funny whenever the place grew silent you were able to hear "The Power of Love" or "Johnny B. Goode" through the headphones.

It was fun but I'm afraid I have no pictures of this costume.

I also spent half the day at school.

Re: Your Halloween

I just went around with some friends for a few hours. A few had horrible masks, while another was a pirate and someone else was Domo. Otherwise, not really creative. Just tried to pull off the mob daughter look. It didn't suceed.

Not that many people were out in my neighborhood either. We saw very few people out and about. Most houses said that we were one of the first out, and that was at around 8ish. Only like 20 people went to my house for candy, compared to like 100 from a few years ago.

But I think it's just area. I heard about people who's houses got hundreds of kids, and had to go and get more stuff to hand out. So I guess it's just location.

Re: Your Halloween

I'm such a loser. I spent my entire Halloween in class.

I did however, catch a glimpse of The Burger King; he was peeping into the women's restrooms and lurking in classroom windows. Too bad he didn't have a plate of cheeseburgers with him.

Re: Your Halloween

The reason it seemed slow the last few years is because it isn't a weekend. When I was younger Halloween was always on a weekend.

This year me and a few friends went to see Saw 4. It was ok.

Re: Your Halloween

It's gonna be on friday next year, though.


And how could it have always been on a weekend, it is only on a weekend 2 out of 7 years, not counting when leap year screws that up.

Re: Your Halloween

I just moved to a new town, so I just handed out candy and posted here with you nerds.

Talk about a gay Halloween.

Those are probabley the only two years worth remembering. All of the other years seem like one.

If it's a gay Halloween you want you should visit here. Some real QUEENS here, man.

There were a few nice people in nice costumes. An awesome Mortal Kombat group, a fantastic Astro Boy, a grumpy robot... The tiniest kid in the world dressed as a little black-suited Spider-Man. And that's about all that's notable... A bunch of Dick-in-the-Box guys. None of them as handsome as Justin Timberlake though. Sigh. :3

Otherwise, fun was had. People kept calling me Ash Ketchum.
