This Guy Hates Halloween Too
So what’s your stance on a Halloween costume?
I mean I’m 38 years old, and everyone in my office is acting like I’m a complete turd because I don’t want to dress up.
Here’s news: I like my regular clothes. I don’t want to dress up like a One Night Stand or a Dirty Martini. I just want to dress up as Jeff.
Signed,
Jeff
I’m on your side, I don’t want to dress up either. Although to be honest, my reason is a little different.
The truth is I think I’m quite the creative, do-it-yourselfer. I take great pride in my handwriting, my doodles, my fine motor skills. Halloween is the time of year where a person with creative skills might be exposed as lazy or uninspired. The rest of the year you can be like “Oh yea I can’t go out tonight because I’m right in the middle of painting/sculpting/knitting/cutting mosaic tiles/baking cakes/sewing curtains and I don’t want to lose my artistic momentum.” People are impressed if you have hobbies and even if you just have art supplies slobbed all over your apartment that still counts as being creative.
Sincerely,
Dear Jeff,
But in your case, I think you should just be the I’m-so-enthusiastic-about-your-costume-that-I-can’t-even-dress-up guy. Ram enthusiasm down people’s throats. Ask them 500,000 questions about what they’re wearing, then say you have to go to the bathroom.
Poor Lucky Me
