Let's Have A Halloween T-Shirts Party, Shall We?

By Josh York


Okay, guys. Let's get a few things straight here, alright? It is not okay for grown-up men to eat candy till they are sick, it is not okay for grown-up people to go knocking from door to door saying "trick or treat", and it is definitely not okay for grown-ups to throw rolls off toilet paper all over somebody's yard. If it isn't okay to do any of these things as an adult, then why is it okay for adults to dress up in costumes for a party? Seriously, people...let's start drinking our booze like real adults here. If we have to party on Halloween, we should at least do it in Halloween t-shirts like reasonable drunks.

I know that nobody has a supply of Halloween t-shirts on hand, but trust me...there are thousands upon thousands to be had for next to nothing on the Internet. Let's take a look at the cost analysis, shall we? Even if you were to come up with a really crappy costume idea that you could throw together on the cheap end of things, you're still looking at spending over twenty bucks on supplies...that you can only use once. If you find a funny Halloween shirt, then you're looking at spending anywhere from fifteen to twenty-five dollars...and you can wear it again next year!

Do you realize how much more fun you're going to have if you throw a Halloween t-shirts party instead of a costume party? If you have ever put on a costume and gone to a party, you will remember how absolutely miserable you were within two hours of being there. How many people go to the bathroom and take off their makeup after they've had a few drinks? I know I can't wait to scrub that greasy crap off of my face as soon as possible. Masks are even worse. You can't talk to anyone or drink without pulling the thing off, which completely negates the purpose of wearing it in the first place!

Then you have all of the guys and gals like myself, who have simply started throwing their party invitations in the trash as soon as they see it has "costumes mandatory" on it. Not going anywhere is so much better than dealing with everyone asking me if I dressed up as a jerk. You know what? I dressed up as an adult, thank you very much. It would be such a wonderful whoosh of a fresh breeze if someone were to just invite me to a Halloween t-shirts party.

Don't be a lame, childish, uninteresting person this year. Do yourself a huge favor and have a Halloween t-shirts party instead. Even though people may complain, or even pretend to care, they t-shirt idea will be embraced whole-heartedly. Drinking is so much better when you don't have to worry about messing up your makeup or removing your mask. Also, making out with strangers is better for the same reason...not that I do that. I'm a married man, after all.
