Fan Costumes '08

Huzzah! A new fan costumes toon is out, after all my days of anxious waiting.

Anxious, you ask? Why?

Why, because of who's in that King of Town costume. Why, that's me! =3

The wiki page isn't even there yet! What, were you camping out at the URL? I never find anything quickly! BTW, Your costume was one of the best. Definitely better than :sb:

Trash-Can Homestar. :sb:

A grand costume indeed. Standing by the fridge for the picture was a nice touch.

I'm the girl in the construction hat and T-shirt Strong Bad costume. The one that's a "comnumdrum" and classified as a "Homsar costume."
Which admitedly isn't much of a costume. But it came to me in a dream, so I felt moved to make and wear it.

Congraturation, DG! And one for you too, Snappy, conundrumous though your costume might be...

This made me laugh out loud several times. There were some pretty lame ones this year! I like the preview for this in the toons menu.

Should we start an article about "Parents' Basements"? Strong Bad seems to have an obsession with mentioning those.

Two wiki users made in into the commentary! Hooway! Slowly but surely our influence grows until we control the entire website's output... moohoohahahaha!

The Coach Z and toilet getup is great! I wonder if they did that on purpose.

quite good, 5/5. though i hope that first homestar costume kid was like 5, cause that mess was awful.

also this thred needs a poll

I wonder if the Sci-Fi Greg and D'n'D Greg costume-wearers actually had any connection with the Scantron. Either way, I'm gonna say the Scantron was easily the best one this year. Obscure on a level that would make a HSR Halloween toon proud, and extremely well executed to boot.

Haha. I was the Homestar Runner with the viking helmet and John Cleese. I was watching Countdown with Keith Olbermann and John Cleese was talking about something. :hr:

I was actually impressed by quite a few of these costumes. Scantron was great, as well as a couple of the Coach Zses. And I like the The Cheat Cat.

Good show.

Anyway, this was probably one of the best ones like, ever. The costumes were hilarious.

Make that three. Well, it's a wiki user's brother, but still. Taken from the HRFWiki forum.

"Augh! No! I don't even wanna know what's going on in this picture!"

Aw aw aww, bass mouth Homestar is adorable. And the painted trash can one isn't so bad...it looks like it was really hard to make.

Singing Poopsmith · **Posted:** Tue Nov 11, 2008 2:51 am

All of 'em were funny. Congrats to those who actually got in!

Power Crunch · **Posted:** Tue Nov 11, 2008 6:49 am

I almost sent in a photo of meeeee, wish I had now. Congrats to those who made it in! My favorite costumes were definitely the H*R garbage can. I loved the little rap haha.

: October thirtieth, 2008, two PM. Dressed up as the King of Town again today, and stood in front of the open fridge for a few hours. I don't think the medication is working.

EPIC WIN!

I laughed off my chair during the John Cleese part.

Dorian, what did you have in the fridge?

DorianGray · **Posted:** Wed Nov 12, 2008 9:22 pm

Oh, you know. The usual.

You mean just one jar of Fluffy Puff Mayonnaise?

And lots and lots of butter.

Is the medication working?

Looking back at it, I wish I had left the butter drawer open. You can see it there in the pic. Upper left part of the door. It flips up, and that's where we keep butter and cream cheese. There was a whole box of butter in there, if I recall, and it might've been nice to add to the pic.

So did I! I saw good old John on the TV in the back, and didn't think it would be mentioned... THEN HE DID MENTION IT!

AiAiAi taped my hat to the door! Simply hilarious!

Yup. I happened to have a fake construction worker hat that I got for free at a county fair as a sort of advertizement. I used fingernail polish remover to get rid of the little company logo. Then I printed off a picture of half of Strong Bad's mask and taped it to the hat. I used a sharpie to outline the picture so that when I removed it, the marker would have bled through. I used the bleedline as my guide to paint it.

I think it looks really cool. Sometimes I put it on just for fun to wear around my dorm.

All right! We have a grand total of four Wiki users in the Costume Commentary (as well as a fellow Hoosier college kid!) We seriously need to start some political oligarchy that controls everything TBC makes...
