Tape a johnny to the centre of your face and if anyone asks what you've come as, the answer is "Fuck nose!".

Edit: or just go as yourself!

Oh, I could go for that hip hop-meets-intifada-with-a-gay-twist on the left myself.

minus the slippers of course (which account for atleast 90% of the gayness)

i don't suggest doing the following sober:

can you be a little more boring please? it's a fucking fancy dress party for fucks sake. you know, where people look OUT of the ordinary and have some FUN with their appearance? i suppose if it were up to you people everyone would look like this 365 days a year:

and anything else would be "pretentious and cuntish", yeah?

i should probably explain to zhao, and any other non-english people, that a fancy dress party is a costume party - not a party where you wear fancy clothing!

All my costumes have been rather predictable -(I'm associating this with the US Halloween costume party)

I went as an RIAA Agent one year in a black suit and shades and slicked back hair with big dollar signs on my pockets and on my sunglass lenses and ran around writing "tickets" for violations of copyright.

and the next year I went as a pirate in full tricorn hat, gold earring, billowysleeved shirt, kneehigh boots getup and handed out free CDs of my favorite mash-up tunes.

but this year I need something new.. hmmm..

No, really, that's an awesome idea!

I hate people that show up at these things with a pencil stuck behind the ear insisting they arein fancy dress (scorekeeper at a croquet tournament in this clever git's case).

( see above ) cheap n cheerful, and really, fuck fancy dress and everyone that rides upon it, so...

Simple, wear your normal clothes, but paint one of your nipples blue. When asked, expose it and proffer that you're a blue tit.

Or, get a bunch of stuff from the butcher's, hide it in a plastic bag in your shirt, and when asked squeeze the bag and let all the bloody lot spill from your shirt, gasping, exclaiming that you're a car crash victim.

For economy, I guess a Roman toga (a.k.a. a white bed sheet) is unbeatable, but you risk either tripping yourself up and falling on your face or being exposed in unsightly ways.

Friend of mine cut some holes in a sugar bag and went as a bag of ganja.

i have a Zapatista mask for these occasions (as well as dj performances sometimes).

and i would like to have some Mexican wrestling masks as well.

one of the best ideas my friend wore a long t-shirt with blood on it and weilding a knife, and his girl tied twisted up hose around her waist, and it comes out from under her skirt connected to a doll which has been painted red. abortion clinic doctor and patient...
