Fancy dress idea advice needed.
Monday, September 3rd, 2007 - 10:37pm
Been invited to a Noah-themed fancy dress party. Everyone has to go as an animal.
My ideas so far:
1. Get a tuxedo t-shirt (or apron) and go as a penguin.
2. Get some fishing net and go as a dolphin.
The tuxedo one appeals to me, because it's nerdy in a 70s / 80s way.
I like the dolphin one because it's not as obvious as the tuxedo. (Plus I'll probably get a few horrified looks.)
Which do you prefer? A worry about the tuxedo one is that someone else will have the same idea. (And I'll end up buying a t-shirt online that's 'fitted'. I hate fitted. I like loose and so do my moobs.)
... Moogaba...?

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

You could get a fat suit and pretend to be a manatee/hippo. Maybe get one of those plastic 6 ring can holders but giant and stick your head in it?

Ed,
I'd considered the plastic option. However I have a large head, so might choke.
No fancy dress is worth dying for.
Hatchet Job - intelligent and irrevent gaming discussion.
Of the two choices the Dolphin is far superior.

I think he was talking of sticking it on the top of your head, not your neck.

Would it be too stereotypical British and hence of poor boorish taste to go as "The Cat" from Red Dwarf?
For those that don't know what I am talking about... Red Dwarf

Just turn up with a shovel and bucket.

Just a reminder: At the end of the story, Noah gets entirely sloshed and passes out naked.

When you say "fancy dress party", what do you mean?

Go with a beer helmet and your own keg, and a ratty t-shirt with puff-silkscreening on it that says "PARTY ANIMAL". I'm tellin' ya, that killed at my Noah-themed parties.

-on L4DNo, that's not it at all. If it's just a fun costume party, both of his ideas are fine. If it's a serious fancy dress masquerade ball kind of thing, then he shouldn't do either of his ideas.

I don't think I even want to understand anymore... I'll be in P&C.

Fuzzy gray pants and sweater, add ears, tail and whiskers. You're a mouse. Or you could glue cotton balls to clothes and be a sheep. Just get some of the spray glue, throw cotton balls on, and wait for it to dry.
