The strangest costume I've ever seen was a guy wandering around as a condom dispenser. If people gave him quarters, he'd actually give out condoms, too.
lol. It would be hilarious though, and thus worth it.
I have a (male, 6'2, 200lb, relatively well-build) friend who once tried to find a "I only like boys who sparkle!" t-shirt in his size, just to be a dumbass. Needless to say, he was unable to find it. But that would've been epic.
I would NEVER douse myself in glitter, not in a million years. THAT STUFF WOULD TAKE FOREVER TO COME OUT. XD
It's your skin, though. :P
I wanted to go as a Crazy Twilight Fan. You know, grab a few homemade Twilight t-shirts, make some signs that say "EDWARD CULLEN > SLICED BREAD," and wander around in groups. It's not planned to be malicious, just sarcastic.
I wish my best friend lived with me, we would so do that :( I could ask my male best friend but he won't do it *sniffles* He's too busy being Mario and Luigi with my other friend.
Benjamin Barker - haha. I don't know if I can convince my roomie to follow through on it, but if I have as much trouble finding a costume I actually like this year as I did last year, a bucket of glitter would be a good cheap last-minute alternative.
I think it just made my day
:D
