caption contest, people dressed in moss costumes

Welcome to our next weekly caption contest!  This week’s photo features several people dressed in costumes that look to be made of moss, and they’re walking down a city street.  As usual, I have absolutely no context whatsoever for this, but that’s not a problem because we get to make up our own context.  So write a caption from anybody’s perspective (whether in the picture or not), and you can invent your own backstory.  Or you can just come up with a joke.  Just make it funny and clean.

For some inspiration, you can consider these questions.  Does this have something to do with the “going green” movement?  Is it some type of camouflage?  Is it a protest?  Who organized this parade?  What are their motives or intentions?

funny costumes, pt 2

Here’s some more pictures of costumes for Halloween, parties, conventions, etc.  The first funny costumes post featured superhero costumes, so this one will be more random.   Some are from popular franchises like Star Wars and Halo, and there are some creative and well-done ones in here, too.  Feel free to comment on any of them, if you have something funny to add.

Here's some "LOL dogs".
costume - green army man
If you want to be a generic green army man, you can buy this costume.
costume - Halo costume
This is the hero, Master Chief, from Halo 3. This one will be popular! You can get a cheaper one for $68.95, but the "supreme edition" (shown) is $779.99.

costume - witch with frog soup

costume - Zoltar
Zoltar, from the movie "Big". This is very well-done! It's not for sale, but at this link they tell how they made it.

Once again this is getting long, so I’ll put the rest in another post.   Here’s a link to search for the other funny costumes posts.

funny costumes, pt 1

For years, people have enjoyed dressing up in costumes, whether for Halloween or for parties.  There’s also movie premiers and conventions, where die-hard fans get into cosplay (costume roleplay).  Sometimes these costume attempts end up being funny, whether intentionally or just because it’s so bad (epic fail).   Here’s a few that fall into one of those categories (but mostly the latter).  Let’s start with people trying to be superheroes.

guy in Aquaman costume, with feathers
Why would you want to dress up as a wuss? And with feathers?
Spiderman costume, but something's wrong
There's several things wrong with this picture. Can you find them?
guy in Batman costume
The Atkins Diet really worked for Batman!
guy in Captain Marvel costume
Does this make you marvel?
guy in costume - it's not easy being Green... Lantern
It's not easy being Green... Lantern.
guy in Flash Gordon costume
I know he's supposed to be a good guy, but this scares me.
guy in Galactus costume
Uhh...
old man in Batman costume, missing parts
No utility belt, no shoes, no service.
costume - Iron Man downgraded to Paper Man
The economic downturn even affected Tony Stark. But switching from iron to paper is gonna cost him in other ways...
costume - Space Ghost
Space Ghost is awesome, but every time someone dresses up like him, it just doesn't work out so well...
