Halloween, the AWESOMEST of awesome holidays, is right around the corner, and if you're like me you could use some help brainstorming costume ideas. Check out this Halloween guide for inspiration, but more importantly, ADD to it. What is the best costume you've ever had? How bout the worst or the most bizarre? What about good/bad/strange ones you saw at a party? Post your funniest Halloween stories, past costumes or costume ideas for this year. Pictures are great, but not necessary. Bonus points awarded for costumes involving spandex or anything else that makes El Guapo laugh, cry or cringe.
Spiderman
If you’re like me, you probably purchased the kid’s XL instead of the adult medium because the kid’s XL was half the price. If you’re going to go this route just make sure you pee BEFORE you get into your costume. Most action hero costumes are unitards and are ridiculously hard to take off, especially when you are drunk.
Delicous Lobster
When you’re too lazy to get dressed up yourself, dress your kid up or if you don’t have one borrow you’re friend’s.
Borat or Groucho Marx?
When life gives you eyebrows, make a mustache…
I went as Borat one year for Halloween. The costume store ran out of fake mustaches so I bought some eyebrows and glued them to my lip. I ended up looking more like Groucho Marx, but the costume worked because I stayed in character the entire night.
One thing I learned was that drunk people are hilarious. When you talk to someone in a Borat accent, they’ll hold an entire conversation with you in a Borat accent as well despite the fact that they’re dressed as a pirate, a prom queen or a sexy nurse.
Arrested Development Cast
We had the whole cast. We even had some guy dress up as the cornballer machine (not pictured here)
In picture from left to right: Gob, Lucille Ostero, Buster, Lucille Bleuth, George Sr., Rita Ice, Kitty, Front: Michael (in banana suit) George Michael, Maeby, Tobias
Jagerbombs!
Ingredients:
1 150lb white male
1 shiny Armani Exchange collared shirt
2.5 tubes of extra hold hair gel
1-2 cubix zirconium earrings
“hot bodyz” bronzer
2 glow sticks (optional)
Preparation:
Apply bronzer and bake for 2-3 hours or until skin reaches unhealthy orange glow.
Adorne jewelry.
Apply all tubes of hair gel to head so hair stands on end. Hair is done when it has structural integrity of football helmet.
Dress shirt, pop collar.
Find “club” along a shore (preferably LI or Jersey) and grind All Hallows eve away.
Boom.

Since we are lazy, and enjoy raunchy humor, me and my friends decided three boxes in boxes was better than one. Gotta love SNL for giving us this idea.

This Mac & Cheese costume is well-complemented by that cheesy smile ya see there.

Don't be Lame
The more creative the better. Even if it’s creepy, par exampluh: that creepy dude from Silence of the Lambs, with full flesh-colored suit and faux pubic hair, beneath a woman’s robe…dragging a chick in a dirty grey sweatsuit holding a little white dog, threatening her that she needs to place the lotion in the basket or she gets the hose again…

Best Costume ever because you really don’t have to talk to anyone if you don’t want to! Plus, no one likes a mime.

Portly Pumpkin
While all the other girls at the ball were shivering in their skimpy costumes (think: thong + eyepatch = pirate), I was warm and toasty in my fluffy stuffed pumpkin costume. And I swear, I never got more attention in my life!

Look I'm White!
Well, believe it or not, this actual wasn’t done for Halloween at all. It was for a video contest for “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia” after they banned my first video. I’m assuming because they thought it was “offensive” but they allowed a bunch of crazy politically incorrect racial videos in.
This was my video as an abusive, right-wing, white supremacist. It was completely racist, including a Nazi salute, and they totally allowed it in. I know..crazy. I just used my girlfriends makeup and foundation and I swear i didn’t actually hit her. (never on camera)

Reno 911 Cast
We spent the evening on our fake radios, handing out fake tickets, & handcuffing people to things until they bought us drinks!

BananaMan
One time I went to a party dressed as a banana and to my surprise when I got there some girl had on the same costume. I told her that one of us was going to have to leave and proposed a breakdancing contest to settle it. I obviously have no idea how to breakdance. I just thought it would be funny to see two bananas having a dance-off. Unfortunately the girl ACTUALLY knew how to breakdance. What are the chances? She kicked my butt and I had to leave shamed and alone.
Go as El Guapo
What you’ll need:
(1) handsomeness
(2) mustache
(3) Sombrero
(4) Plethora of pinatas (optional)
Or As Mini El Guapo
All the handsomeness at one third the height.
When you can’t make it to the party, get your friends to make a cardboard cutout of you so you’ll be there in spirit.
Or as Cheap Imitation El Guapo
Don’t be fooled!! This is not real El Guapo. This costume is like the fake crab stuff in California rolls
I believe you forgot one optional component of the El Guapo costume
(5) Play a Tecate bottle as a musical instrument.

I've already been El Guapo
sorry, you can’t see my mustache. The year after I was Mary-Kate Olsen and my date was a Campbell’s soup can.

If every day could be just like Christmas
We decided that there just weren’t enough Santas around during the Christmas holiday and, besides, they kind of got lost with all the other red decorations. Halloween really allowed us to represent the true Christmas Spirit.

the back half of a 2-person horse costume
i want to be the back half of a 2-person horse costume. i don’t want someone to be the front. i just want to rent the horse costume and only be the back half. i told someone this, and they said that would make me a horse’s ass. then they said i wouldn’t need to dress up to be that. my friends are dicks, now that i think about it. oh well, they don’t do much halloween in australia anyway, so i’ll have to hang on to this one for awhile.

Group Costumes
I tend to prefer any group costume. A couple years ago, I saw some friends dressed as the Channel 4 News Team from Anchorman. What made it great is that they were 100% in character for the whole night. Amazing.

Holden Caulfield Bitches!
Think about it, your costume basically consists of getting wasted and calling everyone phony assholes—shit sounds like my average Friday night.

Mom Pants
Why not throw some mom pants on and be mom for Halloween? Can be pretty scary!!

Sexy...Ghostbuster?
Sure, there’s the obvious “Sexy Anything” (cop, teacher, nurse) – BUT, did you know you could be a Sexy Ghostbuster (because, you know, Ghosts need sexy times, too…)…OR, even better, “Sexy Indiana Jones Girl” It exists.
