14 Overrated Halloween Costumes College Girls Must AVOID This 'Spooky Szn'

With Halloween right around the corner I thought it would be pretty fitting to write this. Last year was inappropriate costumes. This year is all about the overrated "sexy" costumes that we see any female over the age of 18 dressed as every year for Halloween.

I am far from the person to judge what anyone else wears ever, however, maybe a little more creativity could be put into costumes this year instead of being a walking cliche and running into 12 other girls at the party dressed as a cat of some sort.

1. Cat

I know it's supposed to be sexy, but I'm tired of the cat costume. We're ALL tired of the cat costume.

2. Mouse

Putting on mouse ears and short shorts does not make you a mouse. It makes you a Karen from Mean Girls. Just stop.

3. Risky Business

I see this literally everywhere as soon as October hits. No one even knows what you're supposed to be anymore. The movie is too old.

4. Harley Quinn

Listen, I know it's nice to have a bad ass female character to look up to. But I'm tired of seeing a million girls with pink and blue pigtails and no pants on. Cover up. It's cold out.

5. Athlete

I would be more impressed if you wore the actual uniform.

6. Cop

i.pinimg.com

I'm gonna be honest, this makes you look a little like a stripper. Don't get me wrong, sex workers are valid workers. I'm just saying.

7. Frat boy

You straight up look like a suburban white dad.

8. Playboy Bunny

I get why this was popular last year, RIP Hugh. However, it's still super cliche.

9. Sexual innuendo

It's not even funny and if you're not with your partner all night then you have to explain yourself and that's tedious.

10. Devil

No comment. I've definitely done this.

11. Angel

Angels don't show their boobs like that. Be holy.

12. Nerd

Nerds aren't meant to be a sex symbol and you kind of look like you're sexualizing a child. I'm not down with it.

13. Mario/Luigi

WHEN WILL SOCIETY RETIRE THIS COSTUME FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

14. Mini Mouse

I swear one Halloween I saw 14 Minnie's at the same party. Make it stop.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
