The mere premise makes me smile, brenda.
That's insane troll logic!

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

Yes, I thought that might grab you.

I think I've seen that Hitchcock Presents. I've got some vivid mental images of the story, anyway.
Alas, TitanTV can't find a showing in the next two weeks.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Thinking about sexy costumes...
ita said something a while ago about someone going as a jack-o-lantern by wearing orange body paint and a black bikini. That's actually sort of funny. Maybe body paint makes it cross the line from generic whore-ifiying to something camp?

Yeah, I'd say so.
We saw some women dressed really sexy, and some skanked out to all hell. There's a difference.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

One friend at the party was dressed as a sexy race car driver. I'm thinking "Really? That needed to be femmed and tarted up? Where do we stop?" Oh, she looked amazing, and it is the only time of year she glams up, other than her birthday, but still.
There was no way I could "compete" with any of the women there--there were very few not sexy at all (one came dressed as a bucktoothed nerd that matched her boyfriend's bucktoothed nerd, and that was incredibly adorable) and very few who weren't a tarted up something (tarted up Hogwarts teacher? really?). You know, the Fanta girls looked plenty hot. They were dressed as something sexy, not a sexed up something. Me, I put my rack on a platter and flashed my undies intermittently, and felt I'd done my job.
Even though I dislike the mandate to tart up the holiday, I still feel pressure in that direction. Luckily the idea of me being a tarted up anything still makes me uncomfortable.

One year I should have a party where the idea is to wear the most banal "sexy" costume possible. Sexy Toll Collector. Sexy Paralegal. Sexy DMV Employee. Sexy Supreme Court Justice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
For Sexy Supreme Court Justice, you can just wear a robe with nothing under it, right?
