BPR, yeah, there's a story about Ellen Degeneres and her dog. Google it. I'm not going to do your work for you!
Sheila, too topical.
Girl, too late!
Dave, he's super, thanks for asking.
Amanda, it takes a certain je nais se quoi.
Amy, only if it's an all-girl party.
Wayne, that was a definite possibility, actually.
Absurdist, Marcel is wearing all black - he's not hairy.
Mr. Fabulous, I know - that's why I decided to forego that one.
NYCWD, well, I'll tell you that I can't do high maintenance costumes that require uncomfortable clothing or anything like that. My costume's not as good as some of these ideas, unfortunately.
so if your real costume isn't as good as these, switch it up. you have a few days left!
no matter what, please post photos for those of us who are unable to make the journey this year to the best costume party around. better yet, a little video wouldn't get complaints from me...
'Cockslapping monkeyfucker' is still a hard number 1 but 'snot rocket' is kid friendly...and since I'm teaching one how to talk....I do these things slowly.
Marcel Marceau's Corpse looks like he's miming that he's stuck in a coffin and trying to get out.
Which brings up a question: if he had been buried alive, how would anyone know since he never makes any sound?
I am ridiculously excited to know what the actual costume is! My friend once went as a pile of shit, complete with flies and corn pieces, etc. It was really well done, but then again he makes toys for a living, and knows how to work with the whole rubbery medium.
You ARE going to post pics, right?!!!
I'm still on the video bandwagon - pass the camera around, get other people's perspectives...then make it into many Sunday's worth of posts. It's not like you work or anything....
You know the Gay Dumbeldore would be great, especially if you could get a little Harry Potter Doll that seemed to be sitting in your lap... but when you stood up and walked around the doll was still attached and seemed to be in a doggie style position. ...uh just thinking
Oh how about a Kevin Smith (Silent Bob) and you could do the dance and show that magazine where he was named one of Gay dude's main pin up boys. (Kind of like a MILF only for boys who like round boys) Britt could go dressed as Jay!!! Make her do the "tuck" scene from Clerks II! OH yeah and take pics!
I went to my sons Harry Potter party as Dumbledores beard..... None of the parents got it. Most people don't. But it cracked me up every time I looked in the mirror so that is the main thing.....
lol to gay dumbledore and the fires, but whats with the regifted dog? is there something I need to know?
Comments by bluepaintred
The regifted dog is a very good concept for your costume!! Why did it get shot down?
Comments by Sheila
I love Dumbledore's shoes!
You have to make heels part of your costume, whatever it ends up being!
Comments by Girl, Dislocated
ABBA? I totally love ABBA!! Rock on Gay Dumbledore!!
Comments by Dave2
It's so hard to pull off swastika chic, but it looks like you could do it
Comments by Amanda
My vote for next year is Avitable's Petting Zoo... don't forget that, ok?
Comments by Amy
How about Britney?
Comments by Wayne
I like the LA fires. Makes you look like a flamer too. Can you combine and go as several things?
Commonalities:
Dumbledore is a flamer. LA fires are full of flames.
Apparently, Marcel's body is all hairy, like Ellen's regifted dog. So you can combine the hairy idea.
Comments by The Absurdist
I am glad you are not going as Lady Godiva. It would be mortifying for us to be wearing the same costume.
Comments by Mr. Fabulous
Considering the laughter the rejected ideas have brought... I'm afraid to be drinking a fluid when you reveal this year's costume.
Ectoplasmic soda and computers don't mix.
Comments by NYCWD
Wow.
That just made me shoot a snot rocket into my brain from all the hilarity. Especially the Dumbledore.

Comments by hellohahanarf
you should ahve figured a way to go as this girl.
she is mesmerizing.
Comments by hellohahanarf
I LOVE that regifted dog idea!!
SNOT ROCKET???? That's my term of the day!!
Comments by metalmom
I can't believe you didn't mention the BEST rejected costume idea! *sigh*
and to think, you're afraid of "offending" anyone
Comments by Miss Britt
Instead of the LA Fires, go as LA's Firecrotch.
Comments by ADW
So the DutchBitch Sex Slave idea is still in?
Comments by DutchBitch
Hello, I will definitely post photos. I'm not sure about video, though.
Metalmom, is it better than cockslapping monkeyfucker?
Britt, I can't help it if I'm more sensitive and caring than you.
ADW, that was an actual possibility at one point.
DB, I'm up for it!
Comments by Avitable
I'm trying to decide if that's true.
I'll get back to you...
Comments by Miss Britt
iggy? I knew about that but I am sure there is more than one ellen in the world, and with the weird tv shows you watch...
I think you should be me for Halloween!
Comments by bluepaintred
Ahem, see my IM. What the hell are you doing anyway, working or something? I cannot believe I am *STILL* waiting for you to answer me.
(Cute drawing as usual. You should be that dog.)
Comments by Poppy
'Cockslapping monkeyfucker' is still a hard number 1 but 'snot rocket' is kid friendly...and since I'm teaching one how to talk....I do these things slowly.
Comments by metalmom
This almost made me spit coffee on the keyboard. Not because of laughter, mind you, just for the sake of spitting.
Comments by RW
Thank you.

Marcel Marceau's Corpse looks like he's miming that he's stuck in a coffin and trying to get out.
Which brings up a question: if he had been buried alive, how would anyone know since he never makes any sound?
Comments by y not i
Fer chrissake, that's genius.
Comments by BOSSY
Dude, wtf. Why would you reject gay Dumbledore? That is a wicked costume!
Comments by Sarcastica
I think your Godiva is going to need a bigger horse.
Comments by Dragon
So you are going as the "Leave Britney alone!" guy.
Comments by Turnbaby
I can't wait to see what you really are going as. I'm counting down the days until you post sunday or monday (lazy ass) pics!
Comments by Brandi
You could dress as Erik. All it requires is colored sneakers, jelly bracelets, a punk band t-shirt and pajama bottoms.
Comments by Robin
Does this mean that the Christmas Tree costume was not rejected?
Comments by Trish
Britt, girl, you know it's true. Ooh, ooh, ooh. . .
BPR, I watch normal TV. You're the weird Canadian.
Poppy, you've got the inside scoop!
RW, did it make you drive slowly, too?
y not i, if a mime dies in the wood and nobody's around, does anyone care?
Bossy, well, yes. This is me we're talking about.
Sarcastica, I don't look good in pumps.
Dragon, it's all perspective.
Turnbaby, I should!
Brandi, don't get your expectations too high. It's not that awesome.
Robin, yeah? Do I have to pay royalties?
Trish, I'm just waiting for you to show up wearing it.
Comments by Avitable
ooo, ooo, oooooh, you love me!
Comments by Miss Britt
So when do we get to find out what the approved costume is, and there better be pictures!
Comments by Crazy Lady in Vegas
Yeah. Stupid neighbors...
Comments by RW
I'm still hoping to see you as Britney at the VMA awards.

Comments by Tug
Britt, yet why do you hate me?
Crazy Lady, there will be pictures.
RW, now you made me spit on my monitor!
Annie, I was thinking about that, but decided not to.
Sybil, don't be too excited - it's not that good!
Tug, I will definitely try.
Comments by Avitable
I don't hate you.
I just have this overwhelming urge to take you down a peg. Or two.
I don't know why.
Comments by Miss Britt
You know the Gay Dumbeldore would be great, especially if you could get a little Harry Potter Doll that seemed to be sitting in your lap... but when you stood up and walked around the doll was still attached and seemed to be in a doggie style position. ...uh just thinking
Oh how about a Kevin Smith (Silent Bob) and you could do the dance and show that magazine where he was named one of Gay dude's main pin up boys. (Kind of like a MILF only for boys who like round boys) Britt could go dressed as Jay!!! Make her do the "tuck" scene from Clerks II! OH yeah and take pics!
Comments by Y2K Survivor
OMG. This is a BRILLIANT fucking idea.
And I could sooo pull off Jay!
WHY DID NO ONE SUGGEST THIS SOONER?!?!?!?!?!
Comments by Miss Britt
You could always switch costumes at the last minute...? Why not?
Comments by Poppy
I love the regifted dog costume!
Comments by slackermommy
Britt, you're not crackhead enough to pull off Jay.
Y2K, the Harry Potter doll idea would have been awesome.
Poppy, because I've already made mine.
Slackermommy, thanks.
Comments by Avitable
Pfft. Ye of little faith.
Comments by Miss Britt
Gay Dumbledore! I say take it off the rejected list and seriously consider it. That's an awesome idea.
Comments by Stephanie
Britt, I stand corrected after watching you last night.
Stephanie, too late!
Comments by Avitable
I went to my sons Harry Potter party as Dumbledores beard..... None of the parents got it. Most people don't. But it cracked me up every time I looked in the mirror so that is the main thing.....
If you wanna see the tshirt pop over to my blog.
