What metachatter or celebrity would you like to be for Halloween? And what would you need for their costume?
I think I'll go as Mel Gibson. I'll need an unkempt grey beard, crazy hair, a bottle of wine, a flannel shirt, a rap sheet, and a t-shirt that says "What are you lookin at, sugar tits?" on it.
At least something positive (in terms of levity) came out of the thread where I mentioned that...
Anyhow, a good team costume (with cardboard boxes) could be Weretable & The Undead Chairs. I'd say taz (guns, hat, back off!, etc.) but that's just too easy.
I'd dress up as dersins (it's easy, just cut my hair and dial up the Douche by a 50% [o god i'm just kidding please let me still bum smokes off you at meetups]) and spill the beer on mudcmonkey.
I'd dress up as matildaben - black bob wig (or dye my own), geeky-chic glasses, black clothing, new camera and make everyone feel welcome and included at the inevitable Halloween meet-up.
