  • Cracked Halloween Costumes

    These links are a couple of years old and may have possibly been shown already on CS.com, but I thought these would be hilarious to show since Halloween is coming up.

    First link is "20 Costumes that Will Earn You A Halloween Beating"

    Some of these are downright disturbing....especially the "hung" and the "mommy and baby" costumes"

    http://www.cracked.com/article_16727...n-beating.html

    Second link is "35 Insane Halloween Costumes"

    I've seen the "mother and baby" done reasonably well, but seriously. These are commercially available costumes. Do you really expect them to be that great?

      The mother and baby costume and the couples costumes always seemed cheesy to me, IMHO.

            I just thought we could use some humour.

              I don't think commercially available costumes are all that bad. Not everyone has the time or resources to come up with a brilliant idea and execute it from scratch.

              However, the Cracked articles were hilarious!

                Anybody else recognize some of those from Party City's website? I did.

                And I'm glad somebody at Cracked agrees with me about the Bacon & Eggs one.

                  Congrats this is now floating around my office, the NOC will probably circle this for at least 3 days lol.
                  Crono: sounds like the machine update became a clusterf*ck..
                  pedersen: No. A clusterf*ck involves at least one pleasurable thing (the orgasm at the end).

                    Oh, I liked them. I just thought that people were being hard on the whole idea, rather than that one (awful) execution.

                    They're not all that bad, and maybe it's the ones I've seen here, but most of the ones that are supposed to be cute or clever never look quite as good as they did when you saw someone wearing a homemade one. They just look cheap (which is ironic, given how much those things will set you back, compared to a regular costume).

                      I put a lot of work into it, and people thought it was really cool.
