Oh, HELL, no.
Yeah, that.
I was supposed to go to a "dress as your favorite dead person" party this weekend, and my big plan was not to dress up, and just name someone at random if anyone asked who I was supposed to be.
Buffy: I was regrouping. Spike: You were about to be regrouped into separate piles.

Natter 54: Right here, dammit.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Just tell them you're a [dead] serial killer. "They look like everybody else!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, is mandatory costumes sorta like enforced fun? Or more like enforced team-building/team spirit? Enforced morale-boosting wackiness?

Heh. I was a Cereal Killer one year -- flannel shirt, blue jeans, clown mask, scythe with Cheerios box impaled on it.

Yeah. Plus, "They're really quite and don't go in for enforced social activities."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jesse, you should have gone as Dale Evans.

We just had a fire alarm at the new building. No one knew where to go (see above re "new building") and they had bullhorns out barking orders at people. Very annoying.

Mandatory sports-themed costume. So ... very limited choices. Which, when reduced to no choice, was actually an improvement (CHEERLEADERS? WTF?). And ... team building kind of thing. Also to make staff easily distinguishable from those who've paid to attend the conference.
Cute little turtle! took me a minute to figure out that it wasn't bendy-er than turtles usually are.
