I went to a party Saturday as William Cutting (aka: Bill the Butcher) from Gangs of New York. Slightly modified facial hair, for no particular reason.

I'm really digging the artificially aged photograph effect. But AFAIK they only had B&W photographs in the Victorian era.

That's correct! I have more authentically aged B&W ones, but I wanted to show the costume better so I just found a middle ground.

That makes you look about five foot three.

True, which is weird because I'm about 6ft tall. What are you going as this year Chad?
Let me guess:

Can't see the pic you linked to... probably firewall.


I'm going as a Halloweentown baseball player.  We didn't put the usual effort into Halloween this year because we spent so much of October in Florida.

Maybe that's the problem. You've been frying your Zoloft instead of taking it correctly!

But it's more fun to whip it at the Kennedy compound.

I went as the same thing as I did last year. It's in my avatar. I really wanted to go as something else this year, but I always think of the coolest ideas when I'm out of time to create it.

Next year I'm going as Sloth on "The Goonies".

To be expected, guess who showed up at the Halloween party this weekend as well:

A Soviet-era Russian Soldier (who is recently from Russia, and a friend of mine. The accent made the costume) and Kim Jong Il (a Korean friend of mine)



Mao Zedong would have made it a really rockin' Communist paaartaaay!

A Dollar Store costume and some Lustmord.  That's all it takes to give the neighbor kids nightmares.

The first picture looks like you've been channelling Billy Bob Thornton.

Oh, and keep the facial hair.  :applaud:
