It's time for sexy costumes!

I love Halloween. I love the socially acceptable excuse to get drunk and eat candy all night. I love scary movies and spooky decorations. Most importantly, I love sexy Halloween costumes--not the obvious ones that are clearly made to be titillating, but the ones that make you go, "Who the fuck came up with that idea? Who approved it? Who actually allowed this monstrosity to be made?"

Join me in celebrating 2012's best boner-killers. This is only a partial list; chronicling every terrible skin-baring costume on the internet would be a herculean task.

 

 Oh yeah, it's a sexy memento mori! This is probably the least inappropriate item on the list. It's sorta kinda related to Halloween, even though her bones stop at the shoulders and knee joints for no particular reason.

Hey kids, did you ever watch Sesame Street? Now, you can celebrate your PBS-centric childhood with a horrifying sexy Big Bird costume. It's the candy-pink platform shoes that really take this costume from "possible misunderstanding" to "intentionally horrifying." The weirdest part? It's not the only sexy Big Bird costume available.

I guess the idea of sexy candy makes some sense; at least it's no weirder than the sexy bumblebee/ladybug costumes that are everywhere these days. What really cracks me up about this costume is that it's a tootsie roll, and everyone knows that brownish pieces of foul-tasting crud that get stuck in your teeth are the least sexy thing ever.

 I don't really understand the furry thing, but if it gets you hot and bothered I suppose that's none of my business. Still, this is listed as a sexy chinchilla costume. Sexy. Chinchilla. Costume. You know, the little furball in an elementary school classroom, but sexy. This has obviously been mass produced, so clearly someone thought that sexy chinchillas would be all the rage this year.

Yeah, it's sexy Chewbacca. Technically, it's a "Sci-Fi Furry Costume," but the same page has links to some fairly obvious knockoff Storm Trooper and Darth Vader costumes. This would actually be a hilarious outfit to wear with the right crowd, but you would have to be very self-assured and very drunk to pull it off.
