I have an idea

get a cardboard box and spray paint it an eggshell white color, then get a giant piece of blue mesh from a fabric store (so you can see through it, but still write on it with a fine point sharpee) then copy the blue screen of death stuff on there. the bottom flap of the cardboard could be made to look like a keyboard and you can attach a mouse. I call the costume "Windows on a monday morning"

good one

very cool.

You can do so much with a cardboard box! You can be a computer as ITgirli noted or you can be a Video arcade game. I remember someone who did that. It was a long cardboard box (wardrobe box probably) and was shaped like an arcade game. had a joystick on it an everything.

Or set aside the box and play around with the "mouse" idea. Like be a computer mouse, but with whiskers, ears and the tail is still a computer mouse cord.

Me, i'm too busy to costume myself. I have 3 kids to dress up!

That's the scariest costume idea I've heard in a long time!

go with a pun

My favorite "grown up" costume I've ever worn has been as follows.

I have someone use makeup to paint a large P (that's right, the letter P) over my eye.

You guessed it; I go as a "black-eyed pea."

I've done this several times now. Guess I really am a geek.

I've seen that!

One of my friends used that idea as a last minute costume. However, she created a big cardboard "P" and used string to hang it around her neck. She used makeup to paint black rings around her eyes. Voila! It was really cute.

I like the variation. Glad to know others are on the same wavelength.

I hope to hear other pun costume ideas.

great minds think alike

Ok, so elaborate costumes aren't my deal. One year, I went to a costume party wearing a pair of blue jeans and a black shirt. When people asked me where my costume was, I told them that I was a bruise. Get it - black-n-blue? I crack myself up!

Try black jeans with white shirt!

There are two colours (black & white) that suitable for any situation, even you are on the acceptance with lords or kings. But if you add a little of red it will corrida!!!! Don't forgret to add the big boxing red gloves to your suit you will so stylish that all around will with big respecting stretch their hands to congratulate you with winner beforehand. Mans will kiss you only in neck (i can't image the kisses to boxing gloves), women will very enviouse about your success and will more then usually polite with you and very friendly outwardly but into their body all will boil from furely and helplessnessly before your supremacy.

SINCERELY YOURS, LUKCAD
