Doctor Who! (or rather a mix of several different doctors, both old and new). I wore this earlier this year as a cosplay at a sci-fi con.

Re: Halloween!
ok, now my friend is throwing a Halloween party and i'm going, but I can't be bothered with proper outfits and all that, any advice of a cool Halloween getup from the things you already have around the house?
Re: Halloween!
how old are those of you that are still going trick or treating? i'm 21 and i feel a little silly still trick or treating with my little brother but it's just a lot of fun for us and i can't give it up tbh. i only feel weird because i'm afraid my neighbors will be like "wtf, arent you a little bit too old as goddamn dirt for this?" most people think i'm about 15-16 but like 1 or 2 of my neighbors know i'm older.
Re: Halloween!
I don't go trick-or-treating, but I do dress up to go to Halloween parties. However since you're going with your little brother, it should be ok. Many parents go trick-or-treating with their children, and may even dress up as well.fukou wrote:how old are those of you that are still going trick or treating? i'm 21 and i feel a little silly still trick or treating with my little brother but it's just a lot of fun for us and i can't give it up tbh. i only feel weird because i'm afraid my neighbors will be like "wtf, arent you a little bit too old as goddamn dirt for this?" most people think i'm about 15-16 but like 1 or 2 of my neighbors know i'm older.

It's not rude because it is stupid. I pretty sure my church is the only one that feels that way. I've never heard of Christians being aganist it.Diorette wrote:Not trying to be rude but that's quite stupid :/ I'm catholic and I would never think like thatsous les étoiles wrote:My parents never let me celebrate Halloween because "Christians don't celebrate it" and "it's the devil's holiday". One of the hundreds of things I missed out on as a child.

Re: Halloween!
We don't celebrate halloween in my country. I do see a few pumpkins and children dressing up, but it's not something big. It's kind of sad, because I have always wanted to attend a halloween party!
But we have something else here called fastelavn, which is similar to halloween. It's in february and children are dressed up and hitting barrels full of candy, just like a piñata. But that's only for children (and not adults )

Re: Halloween!
Yeah, I actually didn't even know that. In school and at home they only told me to dress up and beat the crap (candy) out of the barrel, and if I broke the barrel then I would be the "king of cats" (yeah I know.. That sounds pretty strange)Alka wrote:that's for saying goodbye to winter and welcoming spring right? most of europe has that celebration

Re: Halloween!
Probably not doing anything exciting for Halloween, since everyone's too cool to do anything except get drunk and party. That's not really my scene. :/

Re: Halloween!
I have a party today and I'm gonna be a demon since I don't want to buy a costume and I'm lazy as fuck.
But I'm gonna celebrate it next friday watching horror movies with my friends and on halloween day I'll stay at my house if I don't find anything interesting and I'll give candies to kids.

Re: Halloween!
yeap, dressing scary, wearing masks (is a must), burning a scarecrow and eating loads of fatty stuff (pancakes mostly) before lent starts and treat-or-treating as well! that's what people do in eastern europeXiWang wrote:Yeah, I actually didn't even know that.

Re: Halloween!
It's funny the UK and pretty much most of the rest of Europe don't really celebrate Halloween, but here in Ireland we celebrate it as much as the US. Probably because Halloween started here around 100AD. Maybe that's how it got to America I went to a fancy dress at a night club last night, dressed up as an angel. On Halloween night I'm cooking some Halloween themed food for my family. I have three younger brothers and sister still at Trick or treating age. Here usually people stop trick or treating at about 12 or 13. I'm going to dress up as a vampire and go to the local bonfire for a little while. Then probably watch horror films and Halloween specials.
