Bwog received some rather impressive Costume Contest submissions, the but the unanimous forerunner thus far is from Ms. Caroline Corley, CC ’12, who dressed us as “an NYU student.”
Think your costume is better? Send in a picture today, during this Extended Contest Time, and prove it. In the meantime, check out two other noteworthy submissions after the jump.
Jason Kruta SEAS ’12 as a mad scientist
Ian Allen SEAS ’12 as Andy Warhol
Anthony Yim SEAS ’10 and Peter Traverso SEAS ’10 as characters from XKCD

@noticed that isxkcdshitty hasn’t been updated since august.

That said, impressive stick figure costumes.
@hater Just because most people aren’t educated enough to get the references doesn’t make it shitty. Just stick to Garfield, and you’ll be alright.
@Anonymous Whoa, I wasn’t trying to start an internet argument, I just think the site I posted is funny. But thanks for assuming that anyone who doesn’t laugh at the same things as you must not get it and should “stick to Garfield.” Jim Davis, by the way, would be so smart and educated and hilarious if he slapped on some stack overflow jokes.
@Anonymous Garfield Minus Garfield is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb.

@Anonymous Garfield Minus Garfield is really great, but have you seen Garfield without speech bubbles?

Garfield Minus Garfield turns the strip into kind of absurdist nightmare humor, but Garfield without speech bubbles weirdly just makes it a better version of Garfield, which I kind of find more impressive.
@Anonymous We (I) demand Quailman!
@liz the andy warhol costume looks more like a berlin-era lou reed.
@hands down XKCD. mad props.
@XKCD XKCD was done last year at the Halloween Parade:

@xkcd costume is easily the best.
@... stick figure guys win.
i don’t get what’s so great about the girl dressed up like a gayboy dj on his way to go spin some really awful dance music.
@Actually I take it back. XKCD for the win.
@XKCD Brilliant. So simple and yet absolutely brilliant. I hope they sent a copy of the photos to Randall Munroe.
