Top Ten Last Minute Costume Ideas

Happy Halloween everybody. I’m sure your thinking, “what the hell am I going to do? I have to go out tonight but I have no Halloween costume. I’m going to look like the only one who forgot about the holiday!” But don’t fret my pet, good ol’ Wrong is here to show you a top ten list of costumes you can put together from items in your own home.

10- Tin Foil Guy- First, grab that box of tin foil. Second, wrap your entire body with tin foil. Third, cut out holes for your eyes and mouth, be sure to not cut your eye ball out (although that might make a great costume also…) When some asks you if you’re supposed to be a robot, tell ‘em, “Hell no, I’m the Tin Foil guy!”

9- Crazy Pickle Mustache- I don’t know if you ever saw the old Saturday Night Live skit where Adam Sandler goes trick or treating with a bunch of costumes he made on the fly but he has one where he holds a pickle under his nose and says, “I’m crazy pickle mustache, gimme some candy…” You could go as that guy, just get a pickle. Easy and it’s a reference to the 90’s. Rad.

8- Sports player- Do you own a sports jersey? Put it on and say you are a sports player (which ever jersey you are wearing, you’re that guy). That’s what I did for work today, easy costume and comfortable. Bonus points if you have a Michael Vick jersey and a dead dog to drag with you.

7- Grunge Rocker- Take out that flannel shirt, those ripped jeans, put on some girl sunglasses, grow out your hair and don’t wash it, shoot up some smack and BOOM, you’re Kurt Cobain.

6- Hip Hop MC- Take out a baseball cap, tilt it to the side, put on your biggest baggiest clothes, grab your Air Force Ones, tuck your gun in your waist, smoke some pot, BOOM, you’re every wack ass MC out there.

5- 30’s Gangster- Put on your pin stripe suit, break out a big cigar, wear a fedora and everytime you speak, talk like James Cagney or Dave Chappell from his stand up comedy routine where he ends every sentence with “seeeee”. “You’ll never take me alive copper see. Let’s go dance the Charleston see.”

4- Cardboard box- This one is easy. Take a large cardboard box, cut holes for your head, arms and legs, climb into it. This one is a bitch to get in and out of the car and doorways, but you’ve got a costume now, stop your bitching.

3- Tighty whitey guy- Put on your ugliest underwear. That’s all. Now walk into the party proud to show your shit off.

2- Fat Guy- Put on your biggest clothes (see hip hop MC) and then stuff them with every single piece of clothing that will fit in there. Instant fat guy! Unless you are already fat, which makes you super fat guy, without super powers I suppose. Unless you count being able to break someone’s bones by sitting on them a super power.

1- Your roommate, friend, wife, partner or someone you know- Borrow all of the clothing items of someone you know. It help if that person has a distinct style that is easily identifiable. It helps also if you set this up with the person that you borrow them from so that they can dress up like you. When someone asks you who you are supposed to be, you point to the other person.

Hopefully this helps you get out to your party in style. Happy Halloween nerds.
