Easy Halloween Costumes That Don’t Look Like You Are

We’re coming down the home stretch, folks. Halloween is 10 days away – do you have a costume!?!? Don’t get desparate – I’m totally here to help you with some ideas for easy Halloween costumes that don’t look like you are. Easy.

You know what I mean.

Skimpy costumes have never been my thing – I remember the end of taking tap dance classes in fifth grade came when the costume for our June recital was a two piece belly rear endon baring thing… Hells to the no, I quit tap class. It’s just not my thing, guys.

But even more than that? Halloween’s in October. And the only thing I dislike more than feeling all exposed is being cold.

Personally, if I wasn’t already set to be a Ninja Turtle on the 31st… I’d totally pick Lunch Lady.

(I’m pouring one out on the ground for Chris Farley right now.)

(And now I’m mopping that up. Because you see. I am in the office.)
