The theme is "the internet."

And go.


Also, I have a dress fitting and bar crawl tomorrow. And the party is tomorrow night. And I have a freaking wedding in two weeks. So it needs to be fast and cheap. Thanks!

    Actually, Al Gore is going to be the special guest.

    I'm just going with FI. It's a joint birthday party for 2 of our friends who are dating. Dude-friend said he might piss himself if someone comes dressed like a flying toaster. But I don't have the time or inclination for awesome costumes like that.

    Oh, Mandy has a good thought.  If I were going with other people, I think we'd all choose freaky fetishes (Adult babies and Furries spring to mind) that are now commonplace on the internets.

    You could go as your Facebook profile, a la:




    You could probably do this pretty quickly.

    My friend dressed up as a text message one year.

    Four of them all wore black and they each had a huge letter on the front of their body. 

    They were W T F ?  And on the back they were T T Y L.  They walked around side by side all night.

    Maybe you could be a youtube meme, like maybe putting on a ton of t-shirts or being the Numa Numa guy or something like that?

    I should really just see what FI can come up with.

    But yes, OWN and Mandy, you have great points. Thanks!

    I think dancing babies will probably make an appearance (unfortunately!). Hmm... what else...

    I would wear a huge cardboard tube (like a supersized paper towell insert) and call myself a "you tube"

    Oh man, you and FI should go as JT/Andy Sandberg from the D!ck in a Box or the Mother Lover videos. Probably would just require a trip to the thrift store and some fake facial hair! I'm going off watch the Mother Lover video again. It's my fav!

    I wonder how you could dress up as a virus?

    Or a firewall?

    How about dressing up as a security guard or cop and being "internet security"?

    Cardboard box painted to look like a brick wall, with flames on the bottom. I'm pretty sure that's actually the Microsoft icon for their firewall dealy.

    Moral of the story: I need to find a box. I think I can pull that off. I have a lot of wedding stuff piled in boxes around the house.

    Your FI could dress up as Perez Hilton :)  You could go as GaGa...Perez calls her his "wifey".

    The AOL yellow runner. Easy to make, still recognizable, and it's hard not to notice.
