Isn't Halloween one of the MOST offensive holidays out there?

"The goal of CU-Boulder this Halloween and every day is to create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone,"

[osok-308]

Man! I was planning on offending all ethnic groups this Halloween!

[Circuits]

All those people dressing and acting like liberal douches are stereotypical and offensive to me, year-round - not just on halloween.

[Zundfolge]

Never have I wished more that I had an SS uniform and an Obama mask.

[hatidua]

Let's ban guns.
Let's ban party costumes.
Let's ban as many things as we can to appease some fragile ego's that might get bruised if everyone doesn't believe/act exactly like we do....

[kawiracer14]

Yawn.

[kawiracer14]

Also- halloween is the best time to be a male on campus - its official name is "its ok to dress like a slut night"

Let's ban common sense and discernment. Instead of some guy wear something offensive and get his butt kicked so he learns a lesson. Let's just make his choice for him. That's what I'm seeing here.

The liberal goal is to replace Christmas with Halloween.

[BushMasterBoy]

You want it really scary? Make everybody wear an Obama mask...

[SuperiorDG]

I'm going as a BIG PUSSY, sure to piss off all the libs.

[SuperiorDG]

Never have I wished more that I had an SS uniform and an Obama mask.

If you do find one you better start a fund for bail.

So my hoodie and bag of skittles won't be acceptable?

[roberth]

[ROFL1]

[Sparky]

I sure hope nurses are not easily offended. I love a slutty nurse outfit

[buffalobo]

So my hoodie and bag of skittles won't be acceptable?

Quoted just cause it deserves it. :thumbup:

[Aloha_Shooter]

Since they're all about not offending anyone this year, can I say militant vegans, socialists, and anti-Western/anti-Christians offend me? I think my costume this year will consist of raggedy clothes, grime, body odor and a cardboard sign proclaiming myself to be the 99% ...

Someone getting their ass kicked for wearing a costume on halloween will be learning a lesson all right, but not the one you are after. Hopefully they have a permit and carry under the costume so they can teach a lesson themselves.
Someone being told to leave a party or losing a few friends would learn the one you are after.

Of course now that it has been asked publicly, fair game for a most offensive costume contest.

ohhhhhh snap. Don't forget the arizona iced tea.

[vossman]

ohhhhhh snap. Don't forget the arizona iced tea.

Yup, that would make it complete.

[strm_trpr]

[ROFL2]

[Rucker61]

Yup, that would make it complete.

No, if you really want to be offensive, you have to go all out and include the blackface zombie makeup.

No can do. That's racist. If it was Bush, it's cool......

[Ah Pook]

So I shouldn't dress up a Ward Churchill and hand out free blankets?

Don't forget to sprinkle on some Patchouli.

[Aloha_Shooter]

Don't forget to sprinkle on some Patchouli.

I don't even know what the heck Patchouli is. Does that mean I no longer qualify to be the 99%?

[spyder]

Also- halloween is the best time to be a male on campus - its official name is "its ok to dress like a slut night"
It's CU, every party is considered that... The only Halloween party I ever went to there should have just been called a clothing optional party. One thing about hot stupid liberals... they're real easy.

[TEAMRICO]

ohhhhhh snap. Don't forget the arizona iced tea.
Uhhh it was Arizona Watermelon Drink........let's be accurate.

[Irving]

Well, looks like I'll be leaving my Jonbenet Ramses II costume at home this year...

I wish I owned a bar in bolder. I would be running a contest for holloween for most offensive costume. Place would be packed and I would make a killing.

[Ronin13]

They were talking about this very thing on Mandy Connell the other day... Some of the ideas were hilarious! If I went to CU I'd be putting on the Pancho, sombrero, and a ridiculous mustache, then grabbing a mandolin and going all out with the corona holster... just because 'Merica.

[Gman]

You vill vear your government assigned uniform...and LIKE IT!!!

[hatidua]

I found some costumes online that would work out well but had best not post them even here...

[zteknik]

And to think of all the zombies we'll offend....

[RCCrawler]

its official name is "its ok to dress like a slut night"

But we can't offend the sluts!

[osok-308]

Uhhh it was Arizona Watermelon Drink........let's be accurate.

I'm pretty sure its called watermelon DRANK

[Ridge]

I'll have to pull the photo from today's halloween costume contest at work. Costume was "Saudi Agent," the guy wearing it was named Syed.

[BREATHER]

It'll be easy for Barry and Micky... He can go naked with a popsicle stick up his ass and go as a fudgesicle and Micky and go as Chebacca

[Ronin13]

I can't find the picture on FB, but a buddy of mine up in Nebraska grew a beard through the entire summer and then for Halloween one year dressed as Osama Bin Laden. Pretty much people were either gravely offended or laughed their ass off.

As long as they don't turn on their owners, bears could probably be decent pets.....I guess.

So he dressed the bear as Osama?

That would be funny.

[Ronin13]

Fixed... meant to say BEARD... [LOL]

A friend did that one once.

The best was when he went into the package store wearing his suicide bomber outfit.
