10 Types Of People You'll Find At A Halloween Costume Party

There are some things that will never change during Halloween. Kids will continue to ask for candy, even when the lights are off. Adolescents will exhaust their minds endlessly in an effort to come up with the most clever costume. Adults will be either re-living the best of their memories from college parties or having to go through the agony of chaperoning events…

But, no matter where we live, we will always encounter the following types of people in Halloween costume parties:

1. The lucky ones.

You understand them. You are certain that they only had enough minutes to come up with something to wear. The end result, however, makes you wonder whether they have a Party City hiding in their closet.

2. The Halloween lovers.

At the party, all of the Halloween lovers tend to gravitate toward each other. It is usually the group of people everyone else avoids because standing too close to them even makes your costume look bad.

3. The serial killers.

This is the other group people avoid. They are in their territory and let’s just say that it is always better to be safe than sorry.

4. The besties.

Are you trying to say people actually go to Halloween parties without discussing the theme of their costumes with their friends?

5. The Social Media Abusers

We get it—your costume is cute! No, you don't need to take a picture every five minutes to prove it.

6. The Clueless

Clueless because they don't even know what they are and because you don't even know how to react.

7. The Lovers

Well, aren't they cute?

8. The Slackers

They have just kind of given up on Halloween but still refuse to become the one friend who does not celebrate Halloween.

9. The few inappropriate ones

Alright, it is hard to be inappropriate on Halloween because you can be pretty much anything. We can all agree that there are some ideas that should remain in our heads.

10. The Food Lovers

There can also be the drink lovers. You and I know that they're just there for the food, but, let's face it, who doesn't like food anyway?

No matter what type of person describes you best, I hope you have a spooktacular night this Halloween!

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

730

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
