If you could be anything for Halloween, what would it be?

I'm going to be the Wicked Wench of the West.
Anyone know where to find a pair of red and white striped tights?

I saw some toes socks in walgreens that were red and white striped.

If I were thin enough, I'd go as Reed Richards. Unfortunately, I'm not, so it's the Baxter Building.

Hey. Sue Richards has always been the hottest and most-envied woman in the Marvel Universe.

They've just announced an animated television series based on the Fantastic Four.

What about the Wicked Wench of the Westmoreland?

Re: Halloween

[identity profile] filkertom.livejournal.com 2004-10-07 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
Does anyone out there have any audio of the Westmoreland Variations that me and Pete Grubbs did at DuckCon a few years back? That's one of my great filk memories, with a fantastic callback the next day.

I'd dress up as a postal worker. My cow orkers are convinced I'm going to go postal one day anyway so why not spice up their lives a little?:)

Jaded thrillseeker,

And now, the adventures of Jaded Thrillseeker -- COW ORKER! (Dunh-DUNH!) "MooooOOOO!"

When last we left Jaded and his wayward alter-ego L.J., they were trapped beneath a recalcitrant Guernsey that had sat on their shins....

"Unh! Holy -- UNH! -- Holy CUD, J.T.! I can't get free!"

"Well, my young friend, you wanted to see cow orking up close."

"Yeah, but not this close! [braaaaap] -- Eeugh! What's that smell!?"

"Methane, L.J. Time is running out. Quickly -- hand me that stool!"

"... Okay...." [plop]

"The milking stool, L.J."

"Oh. Sorry...."

If I could be anything for Halloween? Winner of the previous Saturday night's lottery jackpot, I think.

I'd go as Batman.

But not the new, scary Batman... oh, NO!

I'd go as the REAL Batman, the ADAM WEST version!

"And I'd go a-ROUND all day... talking... in an overly PONDEROUS TONE!"

And if my kid brother agreed, I'd have him be Robin! :)

I'd be Spike, since my wife has recently become a major Spuffy fan. :-) I don't have the body (or enough hair) to carry it off properly, though. :-)

Re: Halloween

Not familiar with Spuffy... don't worry about the physical attributes, if you can get the accent and a leather jacket your wife will have to beat women off with umm...a stake.

Preferably not the pointy end of the stake.

Tall? Why? I'm 5'7" and all my kids (except those under 10 years old) are 6 foot or taller and take great glee in calling me "Shorty".
I've told them if I didn't want grandkids, I could do a lot more damage from my height.

Re: Halloween

Yeah, that would be amusing. I'd like to be about 8'9" for Halloween.
