Okay I think every kid experienced at least one Halloween where their parents either couldn't afford to buy or were too lazy to make you a decent costume. The classic "My mom's on welfare so this year I get to be a hobo" get up, or the good old cardboard box covered in tin foil robot. So let's hear what costumes made you too embarrassed to leave the house even if it meant getting a pillow case full of candy.

"Crazy hippie" when I forgot to prepare. Ripped up jeans and facepaint. I was like 8. It was terrible.

I have a photo of my mother dressing me up as a can of string beans, with The Green Giants' mask. Fucking torture. I was dressed up as a shitty commercial campaign.

I always had pretty good costumes, but I have put my kids through some hell.
When my daughter was five she begged to be a princess. I promised her she would be, but as Hallowe'en approached the money was just not available for a costume. She had a gigantic stuffed bunny, so I took all the stuffing out and cut the face out, cut paws off and threw her in it. She complained that I had promised to make her a princess, so I told her she was a princess but an evil witch had turned her into a bunny. Getting her intelligence from her father, she bought it.
Same year, my son, who was six, was a cardboard quarter-moon with a star dangling from the tip of the arc. I am hoping this has not turned him gay. We gave out those awful Hallowe'en candy-kisses to the kids, hard as rocks. Poverty sucks.
Lesson? Do not have children if you cannot afford to Hallowe'enize them properly.
p.s. Happy Thanksgiving, Kahunas!

there was one year where my costume consisted of nothing special with the exception of a glowstick glowing in my front pocket. i think i tried to pull it off by saying i was the man/evil scientist/etc with the glowing pocket.
to top it off, this wasn't even my parents doing. i was in jr high and too lazy/apathetic to bother to think of a proper costume that year, and all i had to work with was my wardrobe and a glowstick.
i still remember some of the confused looks i got that year.

Hobo Halloween
For us it was usually something with a pair of Dad's old work pants and shirts, stuff pants legs with pilllows and such, paint clown faces on with Mom's makeup and carry a pilllow case for a candy bag. We really could have cared less about the costumes, it was all about stuffing those pillow cases full of yummy tooth decaying treats.

a bunch of us were going to a friend's house in college for halloween. they always make these 'costumes mandatory' rules and we were eating at the dining hall trying to think up stuff. i stole a cup, someone else stole two pieces of bread and some lettuce. after we picked up our case of olde e 40's (for which we were laughed at... but they were killed first), we taped the bread and lettuce to our friend's chest and back. i went as a glass of coke with my hand in the cup, the guy with the bread went as a sammich, another guy tied his shoe to his head and went as a piece of gum on the bottom of a shoe. pretty lame, but good times.

My parents belonged to this crazy churchy church cult thingy, they had activities during halloween (SATAN DAY) to keep us indoctrinated, and unswayed by lucious candy.
They made me go as the apostle Peter (I wanted to be GI Joe), brown housecoat, sandals, towel on head with a rope around it.
My childhood is a sad ruined thing.

My worst costume was from my last trick or treat adventure, probably 9th grade. I threw on a gorilla mask and wore my normal clothes, the 2 girls I went with dressed as dominatrixes (sp?) or something.

Werd, my goyim friend. My Luftwaffe helmet was real and everything. Those anti-nazi, redneck, racist, Northern California fools can GO TO HELL.
P.S. I'll bet if I try that here in Wisconsin I'll get candy and beers.

My worst was in middle school (circa 1987) the year after my parrents were divorced, I was staying with my Dad at the time. When for lack of anything better my father dug out an old Jimmy Carter for president button and gave me an old wide tie to wear. I'm still not certain if I was supposed to be Jimmy Carter himself or a campain worker.
