I should of known that a group of nerds as big as the dope would get my costume! 😛 On Halloween night, approx. 5 people recognized my costume. Although one of those 5 was a really cute girl dressed as Lara Croft. I probably should have tried to talk to her a little more that night, cause she really did dig my costume, and she made a VERY convincing Lara Croft. ---

Vermont, the Shoveler, and Lara Croft, and you didn’t invite me? I’m hurt. I could have dusted [this](http://www.muppetlabs.com/~eric/P1010114_2.jpg) off and been ready on short notice. ---

A bit of makeup and some retro clothing [can go a long way.](http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs071.snc3/13857_185871297462_544567462_3783559_2451020_n.jpg) Strangely, nobody I met seemed to recognize me. ---

Bought it. $50 at Spencer’s Gifts on Hallowe’en morning after I realized the _piece de la resistance_ of my pirate costume (Raven the cockatiel, who I have trained to whistle _A Pirate’s Life For Me_) had bird diarrhea and would not be sitting on my shoulder that night. ---

Not sure if this will work, but here’s a shot… (Facebook links, sorry all, it’s all I’ve got) [Me and my girlfriend](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=915894&op=1&o=global&view=global&subj=1032231305&id=1194011331) - I was Captain Hammer, she was a Hammer Fan. Note, I refuse to shave my goatee ever again, so we added one to her Hammer Fan shirt 😉 [Here is a picture](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=915895&id=1194011331) of the group of us that went trick or treating. My eldest is Dr Horrible, my youngest is the Superman on the right. My girlfriend’s son is the other Superman, and her daughter created her own interpretation of a gender-bending Joker. 🙂 It was great fun all around! ---

Please please please host pictures outside of Facebook. It takes two seconds to transload an image to something like [Imageshack](http://www.imageshack.us) (and yes, they do support actual transloading from another URL), it bypasses all of these FB security issues, and it means that those of us who post from workplaces where FB is blocked can actually see your photos. ---

Come clean, Mean Old Lady. You posted that to show off those legs. Here’s my male model costume. Granted, I had to lose a couple pounds and do some extra chinups, but I think it turned out OK: [![](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_X_d6JjJ00I4/R9XxT20A4LI/AAAAAAAAL7U/4w26Lqb5pTI/s400/brian+2.jpg) ](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_X_d6JjJ00I4/R9XxT20A4LI/AAAAAAAAL7U/4w26Lqb5pTI/s400/brian+2.jpg) ---

Another good reason why people should be in bed (not posting on the internets!) at 2am. But more importantly, you are another person I [del]hate[/del] am extremely jealous of because you can make clothes! Now you might say, “Hey, you can learn how to, you know.” But then I’d say, “Meh, too much work.” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-picture-thread-halloween-edition/515960.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-picture-thread-halloween-edition/515960.md?page=5)
