10 Last Minute Halloween Costumes
Plus Quotes

Halloween is just around the corner! So if you haven't picked a costume yet, you're probably freaking out right about now. Well, don't panic! I have some great suggestions for quick, easy last-minute costumes that will have your friends saying: "What?"

1. Sexy Newt

This is, unfortunately, the only sfw rendition I could find, but picture this as your Halloween costume. Great, right?!

2. A Pile of Grass Clippings

What says Halloween better than a classic clump of dead grass? And what an easy last-minute costume to make! Just find your local gardener and make him help glue some leftover clippings to your body. If the gardener does not comply, get your friend Tony to come talk to him. He knows some people. Easy as can be!

3. Our 12th President Zachary Taylor

Although Taylor is one of the least remembered presidents, you'll be keeping with the hip new trend of bringing dead politicians into pop culture. Maybe Lin Manuel Miranda will turn this one into a musical too--starring you in a white collared shirt looking vaguely uneasy into camera. (Maybe people would remember him if he just smiled a little more, am I right ladies?)

4. A Mole

It's your choice: either a mole a la Cindy Crawford, or the animal that looks like a bear who recently got french tips. Either way, your friends will absolutely love your creativity!

5. An Exact Replica of a Human Lung But 3.4 Times Bigger

You'll impress all your friends by showing off your science skills. All you have to do is apply to be a medical student, get accepted into a good program (maybe not your first, but, hey, it's still decent), study the human lung for years, copy its dimensions (times 3.4) exactly into a 3D printer, and--voila!--you have a perfect last minute costume.

6. Sea Cucumber

All you need for this costume is some tube feet, a nice hat, and a fish to live in your butt! That's almost too easy.

7. A Bean Burrito

This one's quick and easy: find a giant tortilla and wrap yourself up in it. Inside the tortilla, pour a lukewarm can of beans you found lying around in your kitchen and maybe some old lettuce in the back of the fridge. Top it all off with some chunky salsa and you've got yourself a costume my friend!

8. A Yellow Starburst

Poor, neglected yellow starburst. Always uninvited to the party. Definitely go around to everyone that night and make them feel bad about trying to ignore you. That'll help make Halloween special. And it'll make Michelle love you again. Win-win.

9. ZORGATRON 3000

Wear this easy-to-make costume if you really want to go for that fun, flirty look that tells all the boys: ZORGATRON 3000 WANTS TO TAKE OVER EARTH. DEATH AND DESTRUCTION IS NIGH. LOOK INTO ZORGATRON 3000's GLOWING RED EYES. YOU KNOW ZORGATRON HAS SEEN SOME STUFF. AND YET NONE OF IT IS AS BAD AS YOU TRYING TO PICK UP WOMEN. YOU SUCK.

and finally, your favorite and mine:

10. A Member of the Gospel Choir from The Great American Bible Challenge

Pick your favorite! There's so many to choose from! And what a variety of costume choices!


Happy Halloween everyone! Good luck finding that perfect last minute costume! :)

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
