Top 5 Tuesday 100

A very linear, yet fitting top 5 for the big one double oh. The Captain suggested taking more of a pragmatic approach to it, so here she be. Previous lapses notwithstanding, this could be my last one for a while, so give'er!

Top 5 Most Memorable Costumes (that you've worn)


  1. Hunter S. Thompson. Hunter is my failsafe, last minute costume that is quite easily compiled from my not-so-standard wardrobe of Hawaiian shirts and large sunglasses. I have used Hunter to go incognito to parties, and assembled a hasty version over in Budapest for an impromptu Halloween outing. You can dig this photo as evidence.
  2. The Dude. The Dude was rocked last Halloween quite effectively, save for the fact that the Captain's Walter was erroneously construed as George Thorogood. You can check out that sweet magic here.
  3. Disco Dude. I got great mileage out of my dad's 70's pants (when they fit) and hat, coupled with a few thrift shop items and my grandma's old wig.
  4. Jeremy Roenick. A last millisecond sporting of Matty's Roenick jersey and toque (Blackhawks of course), along with the mantra for the evening; "I'm Roenick!"
  5. Robin. Not the ultra-gay green and red speedo'd Robin, but the only semi-gay black and red second generation one. I'm sure many have seen the classic shot of myself, guy Jarvis as Batman, and Vagina as Superman. It's probably the first and last photo to feature us both in tights and with hair.

that was my point, roenick #2. i built it up so much in my head that i could never achieve the holy grail of top 5s. if you have a majestic topic floating around by all means kick it over!

"I'll rent a hummer to pick Killer up from the airport!!*wink*wink*"

I'm not sure if I'm just reading what I wanna read but it sounds like tha B-Man is offerin' to pick you up with a little hummer at the airport Killer...

That's better than a bottle of Absinth any day I'd say.

So... You on Canuckian soil yet D? LOL!!!

But, in all honesty Scatty - this top 5 was a little anticlimactic - I think that you gotta do a 100b just to make up for it :D
YT,
Roenick

you fuckers.

Posted by: scotty on November 2, 2006 06:32 PM

Hey Matty...if it weren't for the photos I might have forgotten that night thanks to that bottle of Absinth from Praha!
Step Aside Scotty!
:-)

Posted by: Killerov on November 2, 2006 12:56 PM

In essence Scatty - I am your padawan - LOL!
Yo! Listen to Killer - he makes much ab-sense.
Step aside!
There's only one Roenick!
Peace.

Scotty...I have to say that you have to step aside on the Roenick. Only Matty can rock the Jersey and look good...especially when he wears a fire red carnival mask w/it!

Rock on Matty!

Posted by: Batman on November 1, 2006 09:04 AM

Hummer?

All's I can say is that I'M ROENICK!

I still can't believe that you know how to spell "padawan" - What a HUUGE NERD. LOL!
Peas.

How did this conversation go from Hanson to hummers?

Posted by: chilli on October 31, 2006 08:16 PM

deal seems close to me ... i think still needs a little something more from your end to make it fair ...hmmm ....

a hummer for all the boys should do the trick.. and now its that time in the show when u have to decide ... deal or no deal (vag goes crazy in front row)

Posted by: martyparty on October 31, 2006 02:01 PM

Ha!Ha!

My fav costumes in no order
1) Mario and buddy was luigi
2) Woody and buddy was buzz light year
3) dildo strapped out of my pants and manikin head taped to leg as to appear well u get the idea (college and wasted)
4) Group of guys went as Hanson brothers (hockey goons with big glasses for those who don’t know) also had puck bunny’s as dates
5) Last is my fav idea yet to be used noose around neck dressed as baby with t shirt saying pro choice ...might need some back up when that one gets unveiled
