Time for this year’s Datalounge Halloween Costume Party

OP - make sure to talk up THE MARAIS! THE MARAIS!

Neeley's Understudy

Trump. I'm just wearing a pumpkin costume and I'll find a bad toupee to go with it

Jackie On Assistance. A tattered pink suit and pillbox hat, worn-out shoes, and a generally unkempt look.

I'm going as a candied apple.

R5 Wow. That’s a lot of pleather.

I'm going as a nacreous layer of permacum -- will apply a bit of paint to this:

Don't forget the EBT card, r4.

I will go as Mrs. Patsy Ramsey, formerly of Boulder, CO.

Like her, my costume will not be so fresh. My props will be a Barbie Skipper Beauty Pageant Doll and a tub of Boulder Organic Ice Cream.

I am going as the scariest creature ever made by an angry god—The Huckabeast.

R10 you can earn mashup points if you add green skin and call yourself The Incredible Huck

Sharon Stone at the 1996 Academy Awards, wearing a Holiday 1995 Short-Sleeve Stretch Mock Turtleneck, which cost $14.99!

From GAP, of course!!!!!!

This year, I’m on the fence between Mrs. “Impeccable Reputation” Chadwick and Miss “Redbook” Bennett.

Maybe Mrs. Chadwick on one side, and Miss Bennett on the other, a la “Two-Faced.”

I’d hate to have to go as Helen Lawson again. That would be the DL equivalent of cutting two eyes out of a bedsheet and calling yourself a ghost.

I'll be going as a satin high heels and a large cloth bag covered in DARK BROWN FECES.

I'm going as Calvin Klein. You guys will shit yourselves

I’ll go as the FLOTUS’ nightmare.

I'll go as Shark. My mom will have to be Bee (although I suspect she'll end up as the shark just to pay me back for those fake Gucci loafers I will force on her)

I'm going as a gargoyle.

You might not see me, as I'll be perched on a windowsill most of the night.

Smoking.

Well, I guess I'll have to be the Mike again

I'm going as Liza, circa September 10, 2001, at the Michael Jackson MSG concert.

I'll accompany you, Liza

I'm going as Helen Roper. I'm putting my caftans and earrings to use this year.

I think the Adrian Leeds costume is brilliant. We should all go as a favorite HGTV character. There are so many choices.

Here's mine.

I'm going as Mrs. Patrick Campbell, and my little Gizmo will dress up as Pinky Panky Poo.

Why I’m going as Vivian Vance, of course.

I'm going as an AWG.

It just feels right.

I'm going as the Check Out This Ass Troll.

Sorry...

I'm going as half M and half G. Ill try to quell the obvious turmoil with copious amounts of alcohol....

Madame Senatrix at your service.

I’m doing black face as part of my Darfur Orphan costume. If my skin breaks out, I’ll be Darfur Orphan post grease fire.

Ray Dalton's hole. It's the hairs just growing out that he shaved two days ago that I'm having a hard time with.

Lots of Dataloungers won’t have to dress up for the Blobfish.

Just strip.

I wanted to wear the sexy Rudy Giuliani but Amazon was already sold out.

Was the sexy Rudy a body bag?

How about sexy Trump rape victim?

I'm going as Valdimir Putin I will have a small Trump doll, I'm not sure if my hand will be up his ass or on a short leash around his neck.

No, not a witch.....Kellyanne Conway.

R40, there's a difference?!

I'm going conceptual this year: Elias Koteas as Major Rakal of the Tal Shiar.

MY MOTHER AND I ARE GOING AS BILL AND RUTH TAYLOR.

Mrs. Henry Vale

I'm making like Miss Norma Shearer and going as a bug.

I'm go as a Frau who is proud of her "shapely" body!

We’re going as these two!

I’ve had this wig custom made for this year’s party, and at considerable expense:

Bootsie Gumdrop is going to be Phone Sex Operator name from now on. (Thanks R51!)

I'm going as a cunt. DL-ers know and understand cunts.

I'm just gonna throw on a mask and call it a day.

If you want to go as one of the Gap Girls, you need to find items from the Fall 1992, Holiday 1992 and January 1993 Gap collections!

CHRISTINA!!!!!

I'm going to go as the carton of smokes that Lori Loughlin is going to need. (Do people in prison even smoke anymore?)

I'm going as an e-cig but will warn others to not try to suck me.

I’m going as a witch.

I'm going as a Pride Rainbow!

I'm going as "The Hotly Contested Male Romper Trend That Nonetheless Failed To Really Take Off."

So glad that did not catch on R69

I’m going as a psychotic man. I will drink and get massively drunk, and threaten suicide. My inspiration is this snake.

I'm going to find a turquoise belt, magenta checked shirt and white jeans and go as the Cockgobbler

My boyfriend can either be Aaron Kitzler, Mike Pence or Some Random Guy At Coachella

Leotard + legwarmers + 80s perm = Yvonne.

^^Or he can be Schock's conservative Midwestern father who doesn't realize Aaron is Like That.

R73 wins Datalounge today.

Well done friend.

GAP Khakis, T-Shirt and Twill Jacket will make for a great costume as DL Fave, Barrett Foa. who is in the center of this Y2K ad!

I want to be the Damon butt but I'm not sure how to pull it off.

My backup is to wrap myself in a dirty old shag rug and be the Affleck toupee.

Here you go R77.

Keeping it simple: troll wig and yellow body paint.

I'm going to wear tails and carry a Barbie and be the Valet of the Dolls.

I want to go as Mrs. Roper but my husband is not into it. I already have the perfect caftan and a wig.

What’s this costume?

I’m going to go as my Mom.

I'm going as a fibro frau but you'll have to bring the party to me because I'm not leaving my couch.

Sumerian farm wife. Again.

I AM Svetlana of the Christmas party photo fame. People will be drawn to the air of mystery that surrounds me and yet ... won’t really want to party with me, either. So they stare.

I will be a dick in a box. However, to hold all my junk I will need a full size refrigerator box.

I'm going as Dolores, the World's Most Beautiful Showgirl

I will be the DL hypnotist and al DL’er will fall victim to my spell, and will automatically present hole.

If someone can draw these tattoos on me, I think I’m set to go as Lens. Serious drawing ability obviously not required.

R91 But can you pull of the whole "smiling psychopath" thing?

I'm going to go as a Frau.

I'm going to go as Irene Cara's perfect, beautiful breasts. Breasts that she should be proud to have!

R87 I do believe you mean THIS photo. I was just thinking the same!

R95, yes! The general DL consensus was that her name was Svetlana and the other women despised her.

Careful r93. That’s a Frau Frau, not a DL Frau.

I want to go as the Honey Badger.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R97 What is the difference between the two?

One is a German married woman. The other isn’t.

The yellow skin troll, R82.

R87, you can't combine Christmas and Halloween. That's just out of bounds.

I want to go as Ginny in Billing. What shall I wear?

Killer nazi twinks on the run

'90s red wig, '90s scoop T, '90's overalls and a paintbrush in a kicky color — bottle of Yellow Tail not shown.

[quote] The yellow skin troll, R82.

My understanding is the yellow skin troll doesn't have yellow skin but rather likes yellow skin guys. Would DLers understand your costume?

I'm going as a brokened cheeseburger.

There will be tears!

I'm rich, thick, and white so there is only one costume for me.

I'm going as First Lady Jackie Kennedy, immediately after the assassination of JFK, in my brain and blood splattered Chanel suit, with the hat and all the correct accessories.

I so love the Joan Steffend Troll that I will be going as the Joan Steffend Troll troll.

Dear Lord in Heaven! I’m going to need to make a cardboard minivan and get some neighborhood kids to be my props. Heavens to Betsy, lots of work to do!

r106 - a Halloween yellow skin troll should be dressed as a cheese slicer

I go as Rich Russian Lady.

r113, maybe you can borrow some of Melania's clothes

[quote]Would DLers understand your costume?

Bless your heart.

The husbear and I will be appearing as The "Well I Never" Lady and The Concordia Parish Librarian, respectively.

We will be shopping at Goodwill for appropriate (oversize) dresses this weekend, then at Party City for wigs.

I'll be going as extreme poverty Kelly Ripa. It's a skeleton suit with a skull several sizes too large, topped with a wig that's 30yrs too junior for a half centenarian. I'm going to pull attention seeking pranks all night then get upset when I'm called out for my shitty behaviour.

Am I daddy's puduter?

R109, the splattered brain should be edible so that you can occasionally nosh on it. Think of the reactions!

Archie McPhee has a brain-shaped mold, if anyone here needs one.
