The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
So, I have a party to go to in an hour or two. All my idea's have fallen through for various reasons, and I need something fast and doable with minimal supplies. Doesn't need to be fancy, just decent.
I have a birthday party to go to with a Halloween theme (my girlfriend's little brother), and I am going to shave, hit up a thrift store for some overalls, a red long-sleeve shirt, and some dark brown boots or something, and bam, Mario.
I might have to go without a hat, but I can make it work for today and refine it for the 31st.
Raslin has probably left by now but for future reference...
Zombie. It really is the easiest, least lame costume.. Just keep some fake blood around during Halloween time, find a good friend who you can borrow make up from on short notice (or buy your own if that's your thing), and as long as you don't mind ruining an undershirt once in a while it works out well. Rip the shirt if you'd like, put some blood on it, paint your face black and bluish, mess up your hair and you're practically done.
2 costumes I've done in the past that always get complements.
1. Ghost, get a white bed sheet. Put some holes for the eyes. DONE. I went out as this 3 years ago, and got many complements, as no one does it anymore.
2. Pumpkin Head, get a pumpkin. carve some eye, and a mouth. Put on head. DONE!
Put a super man shirt, put a button down shirt over it, and then rip it open a little bit. There you go.

Lit'l ol' Peta, missin' his lita 'ile 'ercy plays in the RED.
Down came the glitches, 'ey burnt us in ditches an' we slep' af'er eatin' our dead. :whistle:
All you need is some white duct-tape and a friend willing to tape you up from head to feet. Trust me, no costume will receive as much props as this one.
Well, I ended up going as james bond... threw on my tux, slicked my hair back, found a nice pair of sunglasses, and carried an airsoft gun in my pocket.
Though a couple people complained that it wasn't a PP7 :P
My roommate did Towlie before and it turned out really well. He attached two towels to a box (he used an empty beercase). Made paper eyes and mouth, and cut out a space for his head.
You just have to be willing to sacrifice two towels. It helps if you have the right colour ones as well. But that must have taken him 20 minutes to make once he had all the materials.
Get a denim jacket from goodwill and go as a Canadian.
God I hate you so much
But yes this would be pretty awesome. You'll also need to carry a beer around all night. If you can find a place that stocks imports try to get something recognizably Canadian, like Molson Canadian.

Admittedly it requires a little bit of luck in terms of stuff lying around, but wouldn't Arthur Dent from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy be fairly easy to do on short notice?

Get some fake hair, have it coming out of your sleeves/neck hole of your shirt. Maybe coming out of the bottom of your pants. Wear a pot on your head (and maybe a fake joint in your mouth). BAM! Hairy Potter.
So, I'm going to a party in a couple hours and was invited on short notice.
I'm thinking of messing up my hair, putting on a cheap dress shirt and tie, some cheap slacks, and sneakers. I'll be going as Jim from The Office.
I can do a pretty decent Jimface.
Is this a good idea y/n?
Jim is an awesome costume, I heartily approve
It was a bigger hit than I expected it to be. A few people were able to tell who I was right off (I used some mousse to make those weird curls that he has by his ears, and made them slightly exaggerated), and most people loved it, even if I had to tell them what I was.

By itself, go as the tin man.
By itself, go as a Chipotle burrito.
As a helmet with some torn old clothes, go as a crazy person.

You'd also need the hat.

I dunno if people might mistake you for an emo though

Last halloween my costume went down really well.
I got a bunch of mini-cerial packets like these -
I emptied them, and damaged each one in a different way. One I burnt, one I cut up lots, one I tied string round and pulled tight.
Then I tied them all round my neck on a big peice of string.
I was a cerial killer.
Bravo.

BAM! You are a cell phone accessory.
Mullets. This costume requires mullets.
I suggest watching "The Final Sacrifice" to get the proper mood.
Doing that. Thank you.
Surley everyone has a brown shirt, brown pants and the coat can't be that hard to get
