It's really hard to find a costume that's based on your own clothes that doesn't just look like you. Props or stuff you own but don't really wear (like formalwear) come in handy.
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Also, strangely, I just found a very strange costume in my theatre stock which I can only assume is the Patchwork Girl of Oz. I said this to my students, and they didn't know who she was!
I'm with your students, I'm afraid.
If I get enough time off to make a costume, I want to make a creepy plastic head and crown and rent the clothes to become the Burger King.
Dude, if I saw anyone wearing that they'd risk getting staked. The Burger King creeps me out big time.
I'm invited to a costume party at the end of the month and I have no idea what I'm going to do. I suck at figuring out costumes. Last Halloween party I went to, I just wore my black trenchcoat and anytime someone asked me what I was supposed to be I would wave my fake sword at them and say "There can be only one."

Or Boreanaz's father the weatherman.

and be Martha. No, not that one. Washington. And not that one either.
Strangely enough, that Martha Washington often pops into my head when I think of ita.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What was that show we were talking about months ago set in the near future where all the women wore purple wigs?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I could go as a princess. I think I thought about that last year. I'd just need a pretty white blouse to go with the pink ballgown skirt. And a tiara...

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Miss Demeanor (pageant-style) is still my favorite costume of mine. Sadly, I was at a Beck concert, so hardly anyone saw it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

If I were planning on dressing up, I might try this approach: [link] (Wizard of Oz theme)
I like confusing people.
