Gotta have something special to wear for those late-night MAME sessions!

Sweet Jesus! Who is this guy?  
That is hilarious! ;D
To think, I didn't even bother with a costume last halloween.

WOW!  Ignoring the fact that I really didn't need to see someone of this particular guys physique in a white unitard, this is COOL!

I'm always looking for inventive costume ideas.  I know what I'm doing this year. :)

I shudder to think what *I* would look like in a unitard...I would never let those photos loose on the Net.  You gotta admit this guy's got guts (it's not you, is it Saint?).  But it does show a high degree of ingenuity...

Just tonight, my wife, waving her arm across piles of boxes and parts, said, "I think Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy should do a movie about people like you.  Would you like to email them, or should I?"

So that's how we look to people on the outside...

Umm... I really don't know what to say except that I don't remember the dude in Tron looking like he's 8 months pregnant. Man, just imagine the collection of technogeek stuff this guy probably has laying around.

You can say that again... He's got guts.... hang'en all over... HAHA....

That costume leaves too little to the imagination.  I think on a woman, it's called Camel Toe.

Yuck.

How about some padding there, dude?

Good god, that could ruin that movie forever for me... he'd be the opponent you'd want in discs of tron, you couldn't miss him with the disc!

Ugh after seeing him in tights I am now going to pluck out my eyes with a pair of sugar tongs.

that doesn't work.  It's like seeing goatse man for the first time (although not quite that bad), that image is burned into your brain...it's like shooting the messenger if you pluck your eyes out... :)

Besides it gives you a reason to look forward to senility when all these images will fade.

That page was taking a long time to download. I got as far as this picture:

... and I decided I didn't need to see any more (or less) of this costume.

If there's someone you want to know... just show off your camel toe!!


I think he's clinching his ass cheecks together....

Now that I can't understand. I dress up as Kitana when I'm playing now that's much saner.

Anyone notice the similarity between Zakk's avatar and a Tron costume? .............Coincidence?

Ugh, the day I lose my hair, gain 120 lbs and decide to dress up like a painted sausage -and- share it with the world is the day you all can just shoot me, plop me in the oven and sprinkle my ashes in the lake.

Better make that a family plot, the humiliation would kill my wife and kids too.

Seriously, how much time has that guy spent alone?

Um... err... how should I say this. Jeff Bridges had to wear a dance belt in TRON. That's all I have to say ::)
End of line.

Boy this guy is really making the rounds. I've seen this posted everywhere, even forums that have nothing to do with gaming. I wonder if he knows that people all over the world are making fun of him.

Why can't he just fizzle like that star wars kid? I hope that egotistical idiot is puffed out of the lime light soon.

Seriously. It has been done before him. He is famous why? For not wearing a cup. GET OVER YOURSELF!
