Halloween Costume

So, I have to go to this halloween party next weekend and I'm having issues thinking of a costume. I don't want to be a slutty nurse, or a slutty devil or a slutty Hermione, etc. I was thinking that it might be interesting to do something with an atheist slant, as it might get people talking. I came across one costume idea of Jesus at a job fair (wear a suit and a crown of thorns, have your resume...) that I thought was kind of funny. Any other ideas?

Any ideas are more than welcome, I'm drawing a total blank.

Mmm, slutty Hermione

Mmm, slutty Hermione Eye-wink  

Its hard to have an atheist costume based on a lack of belief on something.  We would find it funny if you came in a custome of some sort eating babies, but I doubt that would go well no matter where you went without knowing the joke behind it first.  Flying spaghetti monster? ;p

 I miss being involved with Halloween, I just am a lazy bastard and it requires more effot that I use elsewhere to do with it.  I have always wanted to do the vampire thing but just again, too much work ;p

First, Hermione is already

First, Hermione is already slutty, no need for addition adjectives.  Second, have you considered being a nun?  I love to dress up as a member of the clergy for Halloween.  Last year, I was Cardinal Richelieu.  This year I am going as King Charles II of England.

You could go as a character from Jane Austen's books.  They weren't slutty, except that one sister from Pride and Prejudice.  You could go as a waif from Les Miserables.  They aren't slutty, just mostly scabies and VDs.  Ummmm, you could go as Dorothy Hamill from the 1980 Olympics.  She's not slutty, just kind of muscled.  What do you think?

You could do the nun thing,

You could do the nun thing, just have the cross you wear around your neck on the outside of the garment be upside down. It's obvious enough to get people's attention, yet if nothing else about the outfit is outwardly satanic then it'll have people scratching their heads if nothing else. OR, instead of a cross you could have the atheism symbol instead...

Nobody I know was brainwashed into being an atheist.

This is not an original

This is not an original idea, but... if you could score a long, grey beard and some similarly boring garments, you could go as Charles Darwin.  Carry a plush beagle in one hand and perhaps some literature on finches in the other.

No one will get it. 

A place common to all will be maintained by none. A religion common to all is perhaps not much different.

No. I can't imagine that being very pleasant. But Ann, to me, seems that she would be a very decent lay.

Im sorry, there is nothing

Im sorry, there is nothing sexy about her.  The girls I want to be with have to have a brain that isn't corrupted by stupidity and bigotry and so many more other things.  She is truly a witch.

There is nothing sexy about a lot of things that people are attracted to.

I don't see how having a non-corrupt brain is relevant to me fucking her.

Why do so many people make the mistake of thinking that puns formed from my username are clever?

I won't apologize for enjoying sex, and I won't apoligize for wanting it either.

Perhaps you misunderstood what I was refering to.  I enjoy sex just like the next guy, its the person that im with that im debating.  I won't have sex just cause.  Thats where I differ apparently from you (and arguably a lot of guys).

Holy Crap!  I had no idea

Holy Crap!  I had no idea this would generate so much... response.  LOL!  Some of those ideas are very interesting.  I like the idea of dressing as a nun with the upside down cross.  Something literary would always be a good bet and these people would probably get it, since they are mostly writers and what not.  (Thanks Nero - now I'm picturing what's her face from Les Miserables with a raging case of the clap.)

Funnily enough, I just had a friend recently admit to me that he's incredibly attracted to Ann Coulter.  I think she needs to eat a sandwich.  Oh yeah, and she's a vile, hate-spewing cum dumpster.  But hey, to each his own.

If you have a guy that will

If you have a guy that will do a theme with you, then you could do what my brother and his wife did a couple of years ago...

 

He went as a priest, and she as an altar boy.  To help sell the pedophile priest act, he bought a children's bible from a thrift store and glued/hollowed out the pages and put candy inside that he handed out throughout the night is a semi-creepy fasion. 

You can't rationally argue out something that was not rationally argued in.

Well, just ideas for anyone. And you could always wear a fake one. Laughing out loud

My dad went to a halloween party back in the '70s - he used the tube a water heater came in, wrapped it in paper and topped it with cotton. He then decorated it appropriately - he went as a tampon!

You could dress up as Ayn

You could dress up as Ayn Rand and if you have someone else with you dressed up as Nietzsche.  Then occasionally start yelling at eachother about philosophy and what not.

Yeah, but after a few glasses of wine, the whole act will be out the door, lol.   Either that or I'll get my ass kicked because most people hate Rand.
