The 2008 Halloween fashion trends are heavy into "movie characters" and "gruesome," but there are still plenty of just plain funny costumes for adults. This year, the Funniest Adult Halloween Costume awards are being given in 10 categories, among them: Cleverest Cadaver Costume, Sexiest Linguine & Meatball Costume, Hairiest Feminist Costume and Smartest Dummy Costume.
1. Hairiest Feminist Costume
The winner of the Hairiest Feminist Costume is Ms. Anita Waxin‘! For those who don’t remember the parodies of the feminists during the 1970’s, the feminist who refuses to shave anything is up near the top of them. The manly, muscular portrayals were, and still are, popular caricatures of women who can think and speak for themselves, especially among sexists. But, as for the winner of the Funniest Feminist costume, aka Anita Waxin’, she’s just a spoof, and I hope we can all laugh with her! Find her here.
2. Largest Wedgie You’ll Ever Want To See Costume
Funny or gross or both? The Atomic Wedgie Costume makes you wish you didn’t look, huh? That’s why it’s great fun for Halloween! (This costume is no lonver available but this Plumber’s Crack Costume offers butt viewing.).
3. Cattiest Cat Lady Costume
Who hasn’t known a true cat lady? One for whom her 40 or so cats were her whole raison d’etre? Cat ladies, at least stereotypically, develop idiosyncrasies like sloppiness, here suggested by an old bathrobe and an unkempt appearance. (I could do this one!) But cat ladies are lovable, as this costume is! The Crazy Cat Lady is for sale here.
4. Best Double-take Bigfoot Costume
Exactly why this Bigfoot doesn’t make it to scary, I don’t know. Something about the mask, I think, is just funny. And doesn’t it look almost like Bigfoot is waving? Anyhow this is a pretty neat costume that looks pretty flexible as to its intentions. The Big Foot Costume is available with his partner, the sexy Misses B.C. Babe Costume, here .
5. Truest Adult Baby Costume
Do you still have your baby face? Let others see how you truely must have looked as a baby in the Baby High Chair Costume, a neat illusion costume, good for plenty of laughs! Find it here!
6. Best Angel Mounting A Devil Costume
Split personality? Hope it’s Good Over Evil!
In this super illusion costume, the angel sits on the back of the devil
distracting him with her wiles, proving she’s the one in control! (The Good Over Evil costume is no longer available. A good replacement may be the Lost Puppy costume.)
7. Smartest Dummy Costume
What makes this I’m No Dummy
costume so funny is when you realize that the wearer gets to play the
dummy, so it’s he or she who’s in control of the puppeteer. From what
I’ve read, that happens quite often. If you think this is funny for
your Halloween costume, you can find it here .
8. Leafiest Bush Costume
What? You thought I meant something else? I just thought this was a funny Bushman.
Imagine this coming out of the bushes on Halloween night, scaring the
cookies out of the kiddies. Oh, I’m really not that mean. If you want
to be a Bushman though, you can pay a visit here. Kid’s version here.
9. Cleverest Cadaver Costume
There’s a molded man in this Body Bag
costume, but if you’re brave why not ditch the mold, and be your own
cadaver, all dolled up by the pathology lab. Find it right here.
I
hope you got a chuckle out of this year’s Funniest Adult Halloween
Costumes. Remember, when purchasing these costumes, or any costume
on-line, to read the description so you will learn which parts of the
costume are included with your purchase. Sometimes website photos will
show a wig or a mask, for example, that must be purchased separately.
Second point: Shop early for the best costumes. They’ve been moving fast since March!
