Jake the Sage Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 [quote name='Archbaroness Cinnabonbon' timestamp='1348778519' post='6033408'] Anyone going to do anything for Halloween? I need some sewing ideas and been thinking about dressing up as Tour Guide or something based on the Gothic atmosphere in a 2NE1 music video. [spoiler=Tour Guide for those who don't know][img]http://i47.tinypic.com/2i9hthv.jpg[/img][/spoiler] [/quote] As everyone else has commented, I suggest doing Tour Guide and posting pictures. In fact I think we should all dress up for Halloween and post pictures, because some of what you guys are suggesting for Halloween sounds interesting to see; specifically this is aimed at Broken, who I will be thoroughly impressed if he manages to pull off Mercurymon. But for me since Halloween is going to be on a Wednesday this year I'll be going to College that day and not working; if I was working they might allow us to dress up. I am not even sure what I am going to do to be honest, maybe go out with the Gamer's Club on Halloween night . . . I'm not certain but it'll be fun. [color=#ee82ee]I'd dress up but everyone knows how that'll turn out. I might even cut Dad's time short to hang out with anyone who happens to be on that night.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 I am going to dress up as either Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas, someone from Doctor Who, or just a stereotypical Asian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL [color=#ee82ee]Not at all Dad and that isn't even funny. If anything I would, if I could, dress up as a devil or a fallen angel. I actually like the fallen angel idea now and Dad can actually pull it off for me![/color] Not doing it. Not doing Fallen Angel at all, I'll be dressing up as a werewolf or a mob boss if I get the chance. But Thar you aren't ever old enough to get candy from strangers.

CinnamonStar Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Yeah, POST THEM PICS EVERYONE Also, going to use this to keep track on the costume progress. It's mostly for self-reminders, since my blog is on a hiatus. (And I usually hate cosplay. lolwut...) [spoiler=Tour Guide stuff] - uniform (blazer and pencil skirt) in blue: gonna look at second-hand stores (max. 30 Euro) - red fabric for the thorns - hat: self-made - [s]wig or clip-in extensions[/s] nah, probably just extensions, unless I can find something less expensive (max. 15) - random skulls to add everywhere (going to say max. 10) - purse with metal closure + skull clip: can range from 15 to 30 because those are vintage purses - skulls tights: found some for 2/3 Euro - random black shoes ...yeah, I'm currently at a budget of less than 100. Probably lower though. Because I want things to look good, but not going to invest too much into something I'll probably wear like...twice maybe?O.o Going to scrap the fangs and circle lenses because they're going to annoy me.

Jake the Sage Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Well all of my weekend partying is over, nearly everyone got drunk . . . and we used a flamethrower to light the bon fire 8D (my neighbour will forever be awesome for doing that). My brother got kind of "shouty" when he's had a few, but then again he wasn't the only loud one XD No people I didn't drink- no reason to since there was no one there I trusted, lol. Some of the conversations were fun or even interesting to eavesdrop on, though I wish we played a bit more games and a lot more "Would You Rather....?"

Nathanael D. Striker Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm not much of a party person. Probably the only party I would go to would be school dances, which has more of a party feel than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Okay I have something for you guys that I'm certain everyone will be able to converse about. Since my brother wanted to eat exotic foods tonight and everyone was able to go we went to a close by restaurant where he was able to order python, snails and even kangaroo. Now here is the thing, since I even tasted a bit of the python . . . that isn't the most "exotic" slash weird thing I've ever ate- that would be a smoked pig's head. So what is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten or, if you have nothing really worth noting, what is something you've always wanted or plan on eating if you get the chance?

Desu the Blue Nerd Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 [color=#0000CD]What are you talking about? Python isway more "exotic" than pig's head. Unless you mean actual taste.[/color] [color=#0000CD]Well I once went to a taco place that served pig/cow's tongue tacos and I also had cow brain tacos. Well it wasn't really just the brain. Basically all the edible parts of a cow ground up and kicked into a taco. Pretty good actually. That's about it.[/color] [quote name='Archbaron Striker' timestamp='1349053660' post='6035391'] I'm not much of a party person.

Well I haven't gone to one since maybe middle school if you want to count it but it wasn't really a dance as much as it was as a party. Well from what I hear of highschool homecoming and what not they don't seem particularly great either. I prefer ones with a bunch of friends. Or maybe I'm just too antisocial and don't like large groups of people I don't know randomly grinding up next to eachother.[/color] [color=#0000CD]I might go to senior prom though.

Jake the Sage Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Wow not bad DF, I never thought you'd have eaten something like that- but the pig's entire head with eyes included is more exotic too me than a python cut up, battered and served with french fries. But did you actually eat the cow's brain in a fashion you could tell what it was or did it look like normal everyday ground up beef? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desu the Blue Nerd Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 [color=#0000CD]It looked fairly normal. I knew what it was but still looked normal.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Okay I don't think I can count that. When I said exotic and weird I meant in appearance as well. Anyone will eat anything if it looks "normal" but when a brain looks like a brain you are not so keen on eating it then. In fact the smoked pig's head was kind of iffy for me until everyone started gnawing on it and stating how good it was- so I ate some as well. I'll admit I wasn't bold enough to consume the eyes or rip out the tongue with my teeth like my brother . . . but pulling the skin and meat off of a pig's face is definitely one way to scary and/or creep people out on Halloween. [color=#ee82ee]I didn't "eat" any since the thing kept creeping me out. Uncle Mike made it worse when he opened the things eyes and . . . [shivers] oh it was so nasty I think I'm getting sick just remembering it.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desu the Blue Nerd Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 [color=#0000CD]So let's get this straight. Actually eating anything edible from a cow's head grounded up and looking edible along with a tongue taco (knowing what they were before hand) doesn't count but just eating the skin and meat from a cooked pig's head while wussing out of the other parts does? OKAY, EVERYBODY! BIG SURPRISE HERE! JAKE DECLARED HIMSELF THE WINNER SOMEHOW![/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 DF I won't deny that eating a cow's brain inside a tongue taco isn't weird- it does still remain "exotic". However the fact it was ground up into something unrecognizable as an actual brain, despite knowing beforehand what it was, to me diminishes the urge to not eat it. I mean if something is cooked up to look like a hamburger I'd eat it knowing what it was, though certain things I will never eat, because it just doesn't look like what it actually is. I'm not saying you weren't brave or whatever for doing it, quite different I probably wouldn't have eaten the tongue taco even if it looked different. To be honest you should get together with my brother since he wants to eat things along those lines. Now quite your whining . . . after all I'll admit I wussed out eating the other parts of the pig's head. I'm not [i]that[/i] adventurous >> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desu the Blue Nerd Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 [color=#0000CD]For starters there were two different types of tacos. One was tongue instead of meat. Not some sort of tongue tortilla. And it's not like they looked like any other beef or chicken taco. The problem I had with what you said though is that it was literally only about the appearance and just because what I ate looked more normal yet the contents weren't and just because you ate something that was actually incredibly normal yet just taken right from the head of the pig that still made your thing more "exotic." Also are definition of exotic foods don't seem to match. I think of exotic foods as foodf that differ from the norm in my culture whereas yours seems to just be what looks different or is eaten in a slightly different way. Ignoring of course that roasting whole pigs and eating it isn't really all that uncommon. Now I'd say that if you ate the brain, eyes, or ripped off the tongue with your teeth then that may be a bit more exotic but otherwise no.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Okay, can we NOT argue? My head hurts from Izaya and that one other guy that's not important enough to remember. I think the most "exotic" thing I've eaten were frog legs, although I'd like to venture into something more adventurous...like that cow taco Desu mentioned. Sounds tasty.

Jake the Sage Posted October 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Thar not trying to argue, just pointing out that if it looks normal you are more likely to eat it- though I didn't know DF meant it wasn't a tongue taco in the way [i]I [/i]was thinking. But frog legs are the only thing you've actually eaten that was quote exotic unquote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I got banned was from that and being accused of scam. And regarding Lora's confusion with Fauna and Flora, I remember about 10 years ago when me and my friends ate the leaves from a wild plant by our driveway. Not sure what it was, but it looked like what you would find in a tropical vacation spot. They were actually pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
