Title: Halloween fun discussion
Post by: bosk1 on October 28, 2014, 10:38:35 AM
Let's just have a thread that actually STAYS on the fun side.  Discuss whatever you want, Halloween-related, but keep it fun, and don't be jerks to each other.

Discuss!

This is going to be my third year going as Freddy Krueger. The first year I won two movie passes in the costume contest where I was. Last year, I won $100. Fingers crossed I'll win something again. It's a really good costume, involving latex makeup and everything, so it does leave an impression.

I'm going as Johnden LaBranginidess! Pics coming soon.

The mental image...

Anyway, I will be in Austin for Halloween this year! Right now the plan is to spend Thursday night at some supposedly haunted hotel and check out San Antonio, do some drinking on Friday, and Saturday is still up in the air. Deb, if you DO have a party let us know  :D... and let me know what else you have going on so maybe we can meet up for a bit.

I'm in Loney's shoes. I'll be working, but I am so, so excited that the staff has decided to do Halloween this year. We decided last year that no one was feeling it so it was just another night, but this year the Halloweenness is strong within them. This means the sluts will come out to play and I get to pretend to not be a pervert. Creeper mode, activated.

THE WINE WILL FLOW LIKE THE ANCIENT RIVERS OF BABYLON! THE PANTIES WILL FALL LIKE THE WALLS OF ROME!

Otherwise...I've grown out a beard and have been called Wolverine on multiple occasions at work, so it was kind of chosen for me. Albeit, a pasty-white, lazy-as-fuck Wolverwine. Old Man Logan? NAY. COUCH POTATO LOGAN!

Okay, first off, it isn't an hour.  Google maps puts it close to 2, and if you know anything about Bay Area traffic, it is closer to 3.  And although I do go to the Bay Area every now and then, that place is still WAY off the beaten path and not in an area Mrs. Bosk is interested in going to.  Add to that the price tag, and it's not an easy thing to do, even though I would like to and still plan to.  Just not easy to work out the logistics.

I have a friend who goes all out for Halloween decorating his yard, and this year I was able to hook him up with a casket to add to things, and he's making some modifications and I'm really excited to see what he does with it.

Won't actually be doing anything tonight, though my city is doing its trick or treat tonight. Tomorrow I start the day with a 5+ mile hike, which will make me not feel bad for all I will eat and drink tomorrow night when I go to aforementioned friends house for a halloween party. The GF crocheted two custom hats, and we will be dressing in all grey and all tan and going as the Llamas With Hats.

For those unfamiliar, thank me later. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB92yoK242s

Post by: hefdaddy42 on October 31, 2014, 12:43:07 PM
Our general routine is park at a nice Italian restaurant downtown, trick or treat with the kids in that vicinity, then come back to the restaurant for dinner.  And since Halloween is on a Friday this year, probably horror movies afterwards.

My eldest doesn't trick or treat anymore, but she is working in a local haunted house/trail this year getting paid to scare the hell out of people, so she will be with us in spirit.

Rick Allen! When I was in high school my senior year I had a bunch of girls that used to giggle every time I walked down the hallway. They would turn to me and say..."do you know you look just like the drummer from Def Leppard?" A couple of girls even asked me..."Are you the drummer from Def Leppard?" Umm...yeah and I go to high school in Milford Connecticut.
I did pretty good with the ladies in my youth and in my band in my 20's. I owe some of it to Rick Allen!

I wasn't going to be Freddy Krueger for Halloween, but I had Ebola and some knives, so what the fuck.
