WEB: WTF Costumes

It's about one week before the scariest (or most annoying, depending upon who you are) night of the year, and if you're anything like me, you still have no idea what to dress up as for the big Halloween party you were half-hoping you wouldn't be invited to. What do you do?

Typing in "creative Halloween costumes" into Google never seems to satisfy my dressing-up needs so I am turning to a new source this year. WTF Costumes is a website that displays pictures of, as the subheading states, "a gallery of the best, worst, sexist, funniest and weirdest Halloween costumes on the internet." As promised, these costumes run the gambit - I personally never would have thought to dress as "Jedi Barbie" complete with hot pink hooker-boots.

While some of these options may be a bit out of your creativity time-line (seriously, some of these costumes have been works in progress for what looks like months!), it's quite possible, you might find a pinch of inspiration somewhere here. If not, then just enjoy a good laugh and wonder how all that zombie blood would ever wash out if it got on your couch!
