Punk-ass co-workers.

Goddamn costume contest.

I should’ve gotten first fuckin’ place! At _least_ second! My Mr. T costume\* was spot-on, the best in the building; it sure as hell was better than catwoman. I mean, really! Catwoman? Wasn’t that one cliche 5 years ago? and what does it take? A little latex mask? Come on!

Bitch, I shaved for this!

Fuckers.

pics posted as soon as I get 'em

Be sure to post both you and the catwoman woman, so we can judge others well.

A hot woman will always win the costume content.

Did you shave your ass too? That’s the first thing I’m looking at on catwoman.

So, Catwoman with no skin tight latex?

Yeah, you got ripped off. Nut if she had the body suit (and the body to do it justice), she’d have gotten my vote too.

Is the catwoman costume tight and revealing?

If so, you have your answer.  
At least, that’s how I’D vote.

I could see losing to the 2nd place (Princess Fiona–was her behind-the-back nickname, when she got wind of it, she made it her own…mad props–and it was a helluva costume, too), but some skinny bint with a whip? Uh-uh.  
I can’t post any pics but my own, but a low-cut blouse without anything cleaving from it just don’t cut it, IMO.

Yes, but that was last week, and not for Hallowe’en.

Preach it. I’m still bitter that my fairy princess costume (linked in my Halloween costumes thread) not only didn’t win, it didn’t even finish in the money. I forgot what took 2nd and 3rd, but the “winner” was a pair who dressed as Thing One and Thing Two from The Cat in the Hat.

And who were on the committee that planned the costume contest.

Fuckers.

Unappreciated by your peers? Your work isn’t even recognized by the judges? You’re one “I Hate Everybody” thought away from being a true bitter art student.

Or just the Catwoman, since it’s obviously the better costume.

Wow, change “Mr. T” to “four-year-old” and “catwoman” to “mermaid” and I could have written the OP. I even shaved, too.

It’s certainly not fresh and original like Mister T, that’s for sure. 😛

(I can’t decide if this should go in MPSIMS or not. Since we’re mostly making fun of **Swampwolf** , I’ll leave it here for now.)
