Seven Days of Costumes for Homoween!

Halloween: Another scary dilemma of what to wear? Fret a porter no longer!

We here at the Gay Place know you've spent all of October (and September) gearing up for that one special night. No, not the first game of the World Series (Go Sox!) but rather, Homoween. Aaaaaaaah, yes.

On the Oct. 31 all the little children and some bigger adults put on their Spider-man and/or skanky playboy bunny costumes and go to town! Of course one group is looking for candy, and the other group is looking for candy. And really, is there anything wrong with that?

Yes. Put away that tired bunny costume because the Gay Place has got you covered.

Each day, for the next seven days, your friendly neighborhood Gay Place will present a new costume concept: Some will be tres homosekshuelle and some will not. Some will be topical, only for 2007 costumes, others you will be able to wear year after year after year.

Today's Homoween Idea
What you'll need:

A bunch of narrow branches, sticks, and twigs, roughly person-sized, 4-6'

Some rope

What to do:

Cover your body with branches, sticks, and twigs, and then tie it all together with rope.

Viola! You are… a Faggot!

Goes well with: Ann Coulter costume.

Is this too much? I promise tomorrow's will be tamer.
Maybe… Bwa ha ha ha ha!
