In his blog,
phasmaphobic is musing about his costume for this Halloween, and I figure I should probably start deciding too, especially if it would require any changes to my current bald face, bald[ing]-headed coif, or expanding waistline. First, the rundown from years past:

Van Gogh's
Self-Portrait with Felt Hat Tintin ShaunNo clue
For this year, I've considered two ideas so far:
- Rorschach, from Watchmen.
- Requirements: Inkblot facemask, tattered hat and trenchcoat, gloves, scarf, and (if I'm feeling fancy) purple pinstripe suit pants ... bonus props: little notebook, smiley button with blood spatter.
- Pros: Would look hella fucking cool.
- Cons: None that I can see.
- Xerxes, from 300.
- Requirements: Brown bodysuit, shit-ton of fake jewelry and chains, metallic codpiece, nerves of steel.
- Pros: The shape I'm in now, it would be pretty damn funny.
- Cons: The shape I'm in now, it would be pretty damn terrifying. Plus, chilly.
Suggestions, as always, are welcome.
