8 Ironic Halloween Costumes That Won't Hurt Your Wallet Or Your Pride

With Halloween just around the corner, many are beginning their intense search for the perfect Halloween costume. You’re in luck! Here are some fun yet deadpan costume ideas that will have everyone talking.*

*No guarantees on what everyone will be saying, but rest assured they will talking about you.

1. The Sexy Ghost

A twist on an old favorite. Throw on the white sheet, draw a ghost face on it, and slip some sexy lingerie over it. Bam! You’re now the life of the party. This costume is unisex friendly and 98 percent vegan.

2. The Three-Hole Sheet of Paper

This costume is so easy to put together you’re probably already wearing ¾ of it right now. First, put on a white shirt. Then cut out three circles from black construction paper, and tape them an even space apart from each other in a vertical line on your left side.

(Putting the circles on the left side is critical for this costume to be factually accurate.)

3. GT Wi-Fi

A local crowd pleaser. All this costume requires is a white shirt with the words “Unable to join the network” written in sharpie on the front. That’s it. Be prepared for some intense halfhearted chuckles.

4. Identity Thief

This one requires a small amount of effort. If you don’t happen to have a pack of name tags in your possession, you will have to buy them and then think of as many average American names as possible to write on them. Once you’ve got all your name tags filled out, simply stick them all over yourself and Voila! Mediocrity at its finest.

5. Life

This is a fun costume to put your own unique spin on!

Carry around a bag of lemons and make sure you have a shirt or other article of clothing that says “Life” on it. The rest is up to you. How philosophical.

6. Facebook

As seen on TV! This costume made an appearance on "The Office", with Jim Halpert at the annual costume party—so you know it’s a goodie. Write the word "book" on your face. So millennial. So cutting edge.

7. The Breadwinner

After purchasing a plastic medal and a loaf of bread, this costume should put you in the hole about $4.32 exactly if you do it right. Not to mention your costume doubles as a snack. What more could you ask for?

8. The Iron Chef

This punny costume requires a plain apron with the Atomic Symbol for Iron (it’s Fe, as I’m sure you are all aware). You can even bring a spatula with you for extra kicks. That’s up to you to decide if it’s a cooking utensil kind of party.

"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.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
