1. I can't find a Doctor Who costume, so I'll hopefully find
the Star Trek Kirk movie Federation uniform costume.

Not only is it the best looking (who doesn't love maroon wool?), it suits the gutted guys the best, hehehe! :D

2. Dieter from Sprockets (SNL) and my son will be my monkey.
Would you like to touch the monkey?

That is to the party with one group of friends with children.

At the adults-only party, I will go as a "Freudian Slip." I will wear a nylon negligee with words like "Penis Envy" etc written all over it in glitter glue. And of course I will smoke a cigar ;-)

3. If I can find an eye patch and a priest's collar, Jesse Custer from the
comic series Preacher. COOLEST COMIC CHARACTER EVER.

Transylvania County North Carolina, that is. I might wear a cape and overalls.

Seriously, there are a lot of bats around my mountain digs. Do you think ...? Naw!

19. Best costumes I ever saw:
A woman in all pink clothes, with a shoe tied to the top of her head "I'm gum", she said.

Also, a woman wearing a white satin petticoat, with words like "phallus", "rape", "Oedipus", etc hand-written all over it. "I'm a Freudian slip", she chimed.

30. I'll just be "hanging around"...
My ex-boss the chef and I are finally doing something we'd talked about for two years. I'm going to wear a harness and hang myself in front of the restaurant -- there's a nice little alcove right before you go in -- dressed in a jumpsuit and full mask, with a fake noose around my neck.

I'll be crumpling newspaper into the suit, and wearing gloves and cheap boots. The idea is to make it look like he just hung a dummy by his front door, and I'll hang motionless.... waiting...waiting...until someone walks up and then BOO!!

31. I used to work in a Haunted Manson
And I would pretend to be mechanical, then as people got closer, I'd move and say boo or something, and they literally fell down on the floor, like dominos

You'll have a blast

41. I'm going to a halloween party.
I haven't decided whether or not to wear a costume.

I have some stringent requirements:

It must be as comfortable as my jammies/robe. Except I don't have any jammies.

It must be easy to put on. It must not take any more than 10 minutes to assemble and put on, ready to go.

It must not use any makeup, hair gunk, or anything that will be uncomfortable to wear and take a bunch of time and effort to get off afterwards.

It must be free, or nearly so. The budget is tight.

Suggestions?
