Exhibit A : Here are the fantastic, fancy new Spiderman halloween costumes I found on the Googler.
Exhibit B: Me as a youth.
How do these costumes compare to this photo of me as a kid dressed up for Halloween as my favorite superhero? There I am looking pathetic with a damn plastic mask that always broke and cut your face or lip somewhere and had a tiny little mouth for you to breathe out of. AND THEN look at that trash bag material junk that's making up the body part THAT DOESN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE the Spiderman suit.
In closing, quit your bitching, kids, until you split your tongue on a plastic Egon mask.
As a bonus for those who read the comments:
ReplyDeleteAND THE SHIT WAS SO HOT IN THAT MASK TOO.
and for nerdy little boys like me with glasses:
1) the mask never worked right, and
2) the glasses always fogged up in the subtropical temperatures in that thing.
seems like you needed to make new eye holes for you to see properly with that mask
ReplyDeletelove the spiderman theme though ;)
Jon is dead on about those masks for kids w glasses.
ReplyDeleteI just remember that you would have to shove the mask up to your face to breathe.
ReplyDeleteAlso that plastic was oh so not warm on the Halloweens when it snowed which in my childhood was oh I don't know EVERY YEAR!
