Costumes came last month in fact.

I never do Halloween costumes myself, but last year my dog went as "Doctor Pepper" (little white lab coat + children's toy stethoscope + her name is Pepper).

[–] Elextra@literature.cafe 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Is there a picture of this Dr. Pepper :D?

[–] IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, but I'd have to crop myself out of them and I just don't feel like it.

Have to settle for this dog tax. She's the one on the left.

The younger one is very energetic and difficult to photograph without being a blur. Most of the pictures I have of her are sleeping, being held, or extremely blurry.

White shirt and a blood pack should be pretty popular this year.

[–] waterSticksToMyBalls@lemmy.world 1 points 41 minutes ago

Just fired up the cricut to print freedom

[–] SadSadSatellite@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I was thinking Turd Ferguson

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Ha ha… it’s a funny name… HA!

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 hours ago

That was my costume last year. Turd Ferguson.

Some DS9-related partner costume. Either Miles O'Brien and "Prostitute" Kira or Grilka and Quark. I'm leaning towards the former because it's much much simpler, but I'm eager to do the latter at some point. It also depends on which partner has time and interest too

[–] FritzApollo@lemmy.today 1 points 13 hours ago

I have a metallic blue mask that terrifies everyone who sees it. That'll do.

Never dressed-up as anything, wouldn't know as what...

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world -2 points 13 hours ago

Yes, I'm cosplaying as myself. I'm going to sit in a dark room and think about masturbating. My costume is genius for it is terrifying. Boo-ga-boo-ga.
