Sockpuppet Friday–the Bad, Bad Halloween Costume Edition!

Filed under: General — Aaron Worthing @ 6:55 am

As usual, you are positively encouraged to engage in sockpuppetry on this thread. The usual rules apply.

Please be sure to switch back to your regular handle when commenting on other threads. I have made that mistake myself.

And remember, the worst sin you can commit on this thread is not being funny.

————————————–

And for this week’s Friday frivolity, Cracked has given us a list of sixteen horrible adult Halloween costumes. Sound off in the comments: which do you think is the worst?

My vote is for Fee Ling Yu (say it out loud! It’s a knee-slapper!), the horrifying Asian stereotype. Um, yeah, definitely don’t wear that to the office Christmas party—I mean, unless you work at Bob Jones University or something.

    OK, seriously? Stereotyping is bad, unless it’s aimed at Christians.

  5. Don’t these OWS tools realize that Guy Fawkes was pro-catholic.

    Look, we may be tools but at least we understand how the Sockpuppet Friday thread works.

  8. Jose, can’t you see you need to correctly attribute when you are misusing cultural references?

  9. These costumes are not good enough to be bad. They seem to have been imported from 70IQ-land. Compared to some of these “blackface” is tasteful.

  10. Winter is coming.

    The GOP is better with these democrats playing race hustler for Mitt Romney, the guy who gave illegals free healthcare and crappy jobs on his mini plantation.

    Comment by William H. Dame (b2fb78) — 10/28/2011 @ 11:00 am

  21. Pretty sweet Mitt Romney costume.

  24. We should be able to rake in plenty of trick-or-treat candy just being ourselves. And it’s about time. We’re getting sick of beans and brown rice.

    Comment by OWS 99%ers (c65c00) — 10/28/2011 @ 12:42 pm

  25. I was thinking of an Obama mask.

  29. I love how petty these two Romney fanboys have been. I guess it’s retire’s turn for endless and stupid insults, despite him being a nice guy who just happens to reject Mitt Romney.

    All they are doing is showing that Retire has gotten under their skin, and they have nothing intelligent to say in response… just various insults.

    Comment by Dustin (b2fb78) — 10/28/2011 @ 2:57 pm

  30. This was going to be our choice for #1, until Mr. Yelverton informed us that he was not, in fact, wearing a costume.

    Comment by The Editors at Cracked (ff919a) — 10/28/2011 @ 4:04 pm

  31. Oh my, it appears the witty barbs emanating from His Eminence Dustin have almost broken my skin. I may have to run to the market and purchase some Unguentine if this does not cease.

    Comment by WeReportYouDecide (fbf87d) — 10/28/2011 @ 4:33 pm

  32. We are tired of saying this over and over again to you guys at the OWS food tent.
    When you get donateions for food, you don’t get to keep some and give the rest to us. You have to give it ALL to us.
    If you need money for food, just fill out the necessary paperwork. After the request is reviewed and a piece of the action for administrative costs is taken out, we will find some union supplier who we’ll pay two times the going rate and deliver it next week.

  33. Let’s see… If I pull the Saturday snow storm just a hair more to the southeast, I can really screw up Washington DC, Baltimore, Philly and Long Island.
    Hmmm… That would be so funny. I wonder if Al Gore is in the area…

  34. I resemble that remark.

  36. Want a REAL scare this halloween? Just read my nutrition facts!

    Comment by McRib (f1c59f) — 10/28/2011 @ 8:03 pm

  37. But whatever you do folks, don’t go trick-or-treating to the White House. Here’s what I’ve heard Ms. Obama’s giving away this year:

    - Granola bars
    - Department of Homeland Security Pogs
    - Paperback copies of Dreams From My Father
    - Rocks
    - Solyndra stock certificates

  38. No matter how bad the Obama girls are, they will never receive coal in their stockings.

    Comment by Ebenezer Scrooge (ca8ec9) — 10/28/2011 @ 8:21 pm

  39. We lost. In fact, we choked- twice. C’mon, Rick, ride the bus back with the rest of us Texazz losers to Arlington. We’ll drop you off at the governor’s mansion on the way.

    Comment by Nolan Cryan (9d1bb3) — 10/28/2011 @ 8:29 pm

  40. I blame the poor performance of the Texas Rangers in recent world on Bush. After all, he was a part owner of the team several years ago, and it’s obvious that he screwed it up so badly that no one can expect the current team management to fare well.

    Comment by Chuck Bartowski (e84e27) — 10/28/2011 @ 9:36 pm

  41. WereportyouAgreeorelse shut it.

  44. How come the majroity of OWS don’t pay taxes?

  45. It’s those damn Trust Funds.
