quiz: what’s your Halloween style?

Posted on by

Um. Not accurate. Totally, totally not accurate. Nope, nothing to see here, move along.


What Your Halloween Habits Say About You


Halloween is definitely a time to celebrate for you, but you don’t have any deep traditions.

You’re more likely to go with the flow and see where the night takes you.

No one quite understands you, but everyone also sort of worships you. And that’s exactly how you like it.

Your inner child is open minded, playful, and adventurous.

You truly fear the dark side of humanity. You are a true misanthrope.

You’re prone to be quite emotional and over dramatic. Deep down, you enjoy being scared out of your mind… even if you don’t admit it.

You are a traditionalist with most aspects of your life. You like your Halloween costume to be basic, well made, and conventional enough to wear another year.

What’s Your Halloween Personality?

It’s that goddam Cheezburger cat!

I knew he was evil!

But who’d have thought he was working for the Empire?

Thanks to Gina for the tip.

Keep your eyes on the skies!

halloween costume of the year

Posted on by

Alex P. Keaton and his dream dateThere was a lot of competition for this year’s top spot. The Malcolm Gladwell, being Canadian, enjoyed home team advantage, as did the Alex P. Keaton. The Tara Reid, we imagine, was popular with a certain set (an unmatched, lopsided set), and looking around the Downtown Eastside it seemed clear to me that the most popular costumes by far were the Novelty Whore and the Hipster. Unfortunately, as this is the Downtown EastSide, nobody looked as if they were in costume; everyone here dresses like an extra from Hedwig and the Angry Inch anyway. Boys, if you’re dressed like Bing Crosby, you’re not in costume. Girls, if you’re dressed like the girl in a Benny Hill sketch and you’re on East Hastings, you’re not in costume, you’re in mufti (muff-ti?). But it certainly was amusing to watch the confused looks on all those women’s faces when the guys in the cars would try to strike a deal. That’ll teach you to wait for the light at Cordova and Columbia, missy!

But finally, we have a winner. Here, via BoingBoing, is the bestest little Halloween costume ever.
