Sewer Rat Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #143
I generally abhor life-size animal costumes for their cloying attempts to cuddle us to death but I detest the Sewer Rat Halloween Costume for a completely different reason... it's just so greasy. Taking a page out of a condemned KFC playbook, Sewer Rat dons a wife-beater shirt for added authenticity. All too reminiscent of one of the most hated characters from children's literature - Templeton from Charlotte's Web. The head emerging from the mouth also evokes a powerful gag reflex.

Devo Whip It Halloween Costume

Inappropriate Halloween Costume #51
From the 2006 Archives:

Good luck finding this Devo radiaton suit as it is sold out all over the place. The Devo Halloween Costume, accented by literal “Whip It” whip, is chumpy, cheap, outdated, odd and bizarrely heart-warming. Expect blank stares and occasional crying from tots.
