as they accosted pedestrians who werent at all prepared for this encounter.
I appreciated their initiative, though, and gave them a five-pound bill and told them to split it.
I just realized I wasnt trick-or-treated, I was mugged by cuteness and ingenuity.
This also leads us to the first everBake Off/Showcostume contest.
Here are the official rankings:
7.
KevinThis is every lazy straight guys costume: Put on a Halloween-themed button-down shirt and call it a costume.
JanuszThis is every lazy gay guys costume: Put on a Halloween-themed T-shirt and call it a costume.
Differentiated from the straight guy by use of eye makeup.
This costume (i.e., his guns) took years to make, so you cant call him lazy.
MaxyWhat the Bride of Frankenstein would look like if she let her hair go natural.

Oh, I know what we all are, Noel.
That is an excellent idea that Paul says is too sickly sweet.

Its still cute, but Paul and Prue hate her too-dense chocolate monsters inside.
The only true winner is Syabira, continuing a crowning glory of a week.
It reminded me ofAku fromSamurai Jack.
