KathyA is a year older than me? Really?
Do you mean that your b-day is 3/23, too, Tom? I think I remember sharing birthdays with someone here, but couldn't remember who.
Inara: I think she looks adorable. Mal: Yeah, but I never said it.

Oh, man. If I could convince a friend to go as Mad Max, we'd rock the house...
Just remember to say, "Well, ain't we a pair, raggedy man."

Do you mean that your b-day is 3/23, too, Tom?
No, but it's pretty close, though. It's 4/3.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Hey! Maybe you can convince said friend to carry me around on his back and I can be masterblaster! And then you could keep telling me I run Bartertown!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm a little Pol Pot, short and stout!
Hee!
One time my parents and I were Tinkerbell, Peter Pan, and Nana the dog. That was cute. It was the year I had a gymnastics recital, which furnished the light green leotard with fluttery sleeves which was, I'm sure, inspiration for the whole thing.
Every time you people say "Serpentine," it only makes me have "Welcome to the Jungle" in my head.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Joe and are thinking Tink, Peter, and Cap'n Hook. Or Superman, SuperGirl, and Beppo the SuperMonkey. (I prolly already posted this idea.)

Serpentine makes me think of my mechanic and how I really need to take the car in for an oil change....
Pretty sure my parents never dressed up when I was growing up.

Always Anti-fascist!
My mom used to dress as Wonder Woman a lot. And my Dad, at 6' 7" could be creepy in a Wookiee mask.

I remember the time my parents went to a grownup Halloween party. Mom really worked hard making their costumes--he went as Caesar, she as Cleopatra. He had the full toga gear, complete with purple outer robe and laurel leaf crown, and she had a very pretty gown with a brown wig in Elizabeth-Taylor-as-Cleopatra 'do and my brother's rubber snake pinned to her chest in biting mode.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm pretty damned sure my parents never dressed as anything, and if they did, it's in a context of which I don't want to think.
Mad Max costumes. I don't like the Aunty Entity much, although much work went into that bad boy. I'd like to marry the guard, though.
