Congratulations, you are now Iron Man.

I was, again, at a different office job from the last time I used it, “Cloudy, With a Chance of Showers”.
Grey clothes, hair band with cottonballs (clouds) attached at the top and a small spray bottle of water (showers).
People got three chances to guess what I was. When they gave up, I announced:
“I’m cloudy,”
A brief pause, and then the squirt as I tell them: “with a chance of showers”.
Works great in an office, as one only needs to remove the head band and squirt bottle to meet clients.
Also, all your colleagues follow you around to see when you encounter the next innocent who asks “what are you?” and get quizzed and (gently) squirted!
(No, I didn’t ruin anyone’s paperwork. I was careful.)

You are a human Q-Tip!
I know this is too late for Halloween '10, but you could always start planning for next year, and it sounds like Profane Drunk Baby would be an easy costume. Not sure how much candy you’d get tho.
