​Halloween Costumes That Take “Sexy” Way Too Far

Don't cross the line of flirty to just plain weird.

​Halloween Costumes That Take “Sexy” Way Too Far
Buzzfeed

It’s that time of year again. Time to start making/buying a Halloween costume for the plethora of parties for infamous Halloweekend. But we all know the not-so-subtle intent of Halloween costumes: to show as much skin and look as sexy as possible. Just like "Mean Girls" says, it’s the one holiday a year where people can dress however they want, and nobody can say anything about it. Some costumes, however, really take it WAY too far. Here’s just a few floating around the Internet that are just too much, even for Halloween standards.

1. Sexy Olaf

Why not scar small children for life with an over-sexualized version of a beloved Disney character? Olaf is a goofy character from the recent hit movie Frozen, but costumes of him should probably be left for children under nine to enjoy, not adults walking around in a white jumpsuit and carrot nose attachment.

2. Sexy Minion

Putting aside the fact that the minion obsession is getting out of control and needs to stop, this costume is awful. Only the strange beanie even remotely suggests that this costume is meant to be a minion, which is NOT something that should be made sexy, ever.

3. Sexy Osama Costume

First of all: NO. This isn’t even one of those costumes that is funny, or can be worn ironically. It’s just plain offensive and disturbing. The whole dress and “Bin Laden Nose & Beard” combination is horrifying and ridiculous, and anyone who wore this would just look like a fool. Plus, the dress looks extraordinarily uncomfortable and is just asking for a wardrobe malfunction.

4. Sexy Pizza

Pizza is already sexy, so there’s really no reason to make a costume that portrays that, let alone a costume that represents a pretty gross pizza (Green peppers? Really? No, thanks). I’ll just choose to eat pizza on Halloween night, not dress like one.

5. Sexy Banana

I would NOT trust wearing this costume to a frat party, the bars, or really anywhere. It only takes one too-drunk person to see that zipper and make a bad choice. You know what I’m talking about. Suddenly, there’s an “unpeeled banana” in the middle of the room and Halloween just got a whole lot weirder. Make good costume choices, preferably without full-frontal zippers.

6. Sexy “Indian Chief”

Ah, cultural appropriation at its finest. People all over have been criticized recently for appropriating Native American culture through headdresses and whatnot, and this costume just takes that problem to a whole new level. Please, for the love of all things Halloween and sexy, do not make poor choices and look like an insensitive idiot like this costume suggests.

7. Sexy "Sesame Street" characters

Can you say childhood ruined? These sexy Bert, Ernie and Cookie Monster costumes make my 5-year-old self cry and put the classic TV show to shame. Again, like the minion costume, nobody would know that they are meant to represent these characters without the strange headpieces, and I personally know that walking around in a tied-up Ernie shirt and suspenders would make for a very uncomfortable Halloween.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
