Happy Halloween!

[sabotabby]

For the three or so of you who have not seen this posted elsewhere (or who long to see it again), here I am with the_axel dressed up as the Spectre Haunting Europe:



Personally I think this is the second-funniest costume I have ever done (after last year's David Cameron and a sexy pig costume). Admittedly I think the intertubes are finding it funnier than people at any of the three parties we hit last night.

P.S. Okay, so it went over really well on the internets. Maybe too well. Now I have newfound comrades in Bangladesh offering to put me up if I ever come visit. Hahaha.

This is pretty funny. :) I admit to sophomorically loving the Cameron/Pig one even more, tho.

[sabotabby]

I know I will never top that one. It's okay. It lives on in my memory.

I saw your costumes mentioned in a comment on a post by a friend who you're not even friends with!! Huge success!!!

[sabotabby]

Oh fuck, it's going all over the world. Apparently pretty big in Latin America and India judging by the names.

And Ian Bone and Richard Seymour both reblogged it, which is making me blush.

omg you're famous! It's only a matter of time until you can snort coke off a comrade's abs! or whatever it is famous people do.

[sabotabby]

Who says I can't now? ;)

Seriously though Richard Seymour is fine.

You have terrible fucking taste! But I love you still. Also, who is Ian Bone?

[sabotabby]

<3

Ian Bone is the founder of Class War, an 80s anarchist newspaper that was a formative influence on my political development/sense of humour.

I like it.

[sabotabby]

Thanks!

Well done!

[sabotabby]

Apparently so!

I think the draped/droopy quality of your sheets give it that extra "je ne sais quoi" which makes you guys look really goofy in a great ghostly way...

[sabotabby]

It's true. Those there are actual bedsheets, not a ghost costume.

[princealberic.livejournal.com]

YES

THIS IS THE HALLOWEEN COSTUME I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO DO

I AM SURPRISED YOU HAVEN'T DONE THIS BEFORE

THIS IS HILARIOUS AND I JUST CAN'T STOP GIGGLING WHENEVER I SCROLL UP

also, I loved last year's costume and that one made me laugh so hard, so I agree that one is probably your best, but this one is just so you

[sabotabby]

I can't believe I haven't done it before either. I saw the sickle at Value Village and got inspired. I'm still incredibly amused by the whole thing.

Yay!

[sabotabby]

LOL, that's awesome, and works double for the US now, too :-)
