4. Sorry, that's too scary!
I can just picture screaming toddlers running away from that cretin.

I'd rather see something nice and wholesome, like a brain-eating zombie.

Oh, wait, he is a brain-eating zombie...

8. My best, cheap costume was "photo journalist"
Just went to the thrift store and bought a vest and about 10 crappy cameras for $10.00.

EVERY girl I met at the party wanted me to take a picture of them. Score! :)

11. I think I'll go as the old lady
(I am an old lady) holding up a card saying NO GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTH CARE. Of Course she might want to give up her medicare..I don't. I will say I am lucky. I have medicare. I also have a BC/BS PPO and prescription and it is good. I am so sorry for the people who don't. My only cost is the prescriptions 4 dollars at WalMart. 5 dollars for 45 days thru my prescription, or 15 dollars if the medicine is non-generic. I just don't understand why everyone in America can't have this. It cost about 200 dollars a month. That is high for me on social security, but it is not as high as 7 to 9 hundred dollars a lot of people pay. And then have large co-pays on visits and prescriptions.

I don't understand why in the devil they can't make this health care as simple as Medicare and my BC/BS. I forgot I have dental for 11 dollars month. Which I added into the 200.

13. I used to go as the 'Budget Rent-A-Fairy':
Tatty prom dress, combat boots, cardboard wings, a tinfoil wand and a large button with "Fairy Godmother's local #666" or somesuch on it.

Now a adys I just pull out all of my extreme goth gear and tell people that halloween is the one day I don't have to wear a costume...

You even have the pose down. Wait a minute here. How do we know you're not "Moran Man" himself? Come to think of it, I bet no one has ever seen "Moran Man" and elehhhhna in the same place together. Hmmm.... ;)

Last year I was going to get a bunch of fake billion dollar bills, tape them to my shirt and go as a bank bailout. Alas, I never got the time to do it. Bummer.

31. MORAN is spelled wrong.
How did M-O-R-O-N escape so many here on DU? This makes the sign holder look stupid as well as numbers of DU'ers. I do agree with the sentiment.

47. You are getting plenty of comments, but
I just wanted you to know that you don't have to feel bad. Almost every time someone here uses the freeperism "moran", someone comes along and corrects it. In other words, you aren't the first person to make this mistake and you won't be the last. I'm afraid we have a lot of inside jokes here. The freepers make it really easy for us to mock them.

54. American General (which is the insurance subsidiary of AIG) trashed all of their business cards and
all of their business shirt, collared and polo, that had AIG on them. They are back to being simply American General...

I know this because my insurance agent gave me a new card and told me about it last year.
