I started writing this entry with the intent of sharing my favorite costume ideas for the upcoming Halloween celebrations this weekend, but then I thought, why do I want to give all my good ideas away?

Instead, I have put together a brief list of costumes that should banned from all Halloween parties until the end of time. Here we go:

Men in drag

I have never been to a Halloween party where there was not at least one guy in drag. Didn’t anyone tell him somebody’s done that before, like a million people every year? Yes, it’s sort of funny to see a guy in drag try to pick up chicks, especially if he’s a friend, but seriously, dressing like a woman is just the lazy man’s way out of finding a real Halloween costume.

Naughty School Girl

OK, we’ve all been there. It’s sophomore year in college and you don’t have a lot of money but you want a really hot costume that will get the cute boys’ attention at the Zeta Chi party so you and your girlfriends go to the thrift store, get white button downs and Gap plaid skirts. After you splurge at the mall on a pair of white thigh highs you are totally good to go. Who cares that it’s 30 degrees out? Who cares there are 17 other girls at the party who look just like you? At least you didn’t go as something that makes you look fat.

However, we are now grown ups. We know the naughty school girl is played out, but for some reason, there are those ladies out there that insist on keeping this trend alive. Dudes, I know you probably don’t have my back on this one but ladies, I know you’re feeling me.

Baby Costumes

This one goes for guys and girls. No adult diapers with the big pin! No super-sized pacifiers! No ridiculous baby bonnets! This costume is not funny. Stop doing it!

The Kittycat

Remember the SNL skit where all the ladies at the Halloween party had kickass costumes and no one would pay attention to them because all the guys were drooling over Molly Shannon who was dressed as a “kittycat prostitute?” If you do, you know what I mean. If not, trust me. The kittycat is not hot, it’s weak.

P.S. I will say this guy has incorporated two of the banned costumes here with great aplomb.
