15 Group Costumes That Won Halloween

Halloween’s almost here, and if you’re still scratching your head trying to think of a costume, here’s a suggestion: get some friends together and try a group costume! The benefits are many. It takes the pressure off you to come up with a costume for yourself. It shows the world that you and your friends do everything together, even the holidays. And finally, a group costume can elevate an otherwise mediocre costume into a great one. By yourself, you’re just a sad, lonely construction worker. But get some friends onboard and suddenly you’re a member of the Village People!

Here are 15 group costumes that you and your friends can try this Halloween. Some are punny masterpieces that even the anti-pun crowd will appreciate. Some are your favorite groups of characters from across pop culture. Some are just inventive and hilarious. You’ll agree: Halloween is better in a group.

Last-Minute Halloween Costumes for the Procrastinator in All of Us

We previously featured some creative and clever homemade Halloween costumes made by overachievers. Today, we’re featuring the opposite: costumes that someone clearly threw together at the very last minute. The kind of costume you get when you forget it’s Halloween and grab whatever’s available.

A few of these costumes have the sort of simple charm that makes people regret spending $400 on their ultra-realistic Voldemort costume. But most are laughably awful, not even worthy of an honorable mention in a costume contest.

Hey, I don’t judge. This will absolutely be me in a couple weeks.

1. Candy “Rappers”

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Get it?! Because “rappers” rhymes with “wrappers”! Not only does this costume involve wordplay, it gives you an excuse to scarf down 50 pieces of candy in one sitting.

2. 50 Shades of Grey

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Minimal effort, minimal hassle. Unless you count the fight with the Home Depot guy for taking too many paint samples.

3. Salt and Pepper

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

This is the sort of costume that will have everyone at the party coming up to you and asking what the hell it is. Are you guys…Salmonella and Puberty?

4. Pigs in a Blanket

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Not bad!

5. Identity Thief

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Is she an identity thief, or is she a woman with 14 different personalities? Either way: fun!

6. Weatherman in a hurricane.

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Partly cloudy with a chance of SUCCESS!

7. God’s gift to men/women.

Hopefully men/women kept the receipt.

8. American tourists.

Does Paris have a TGI Friday’s? These two know!

9. Audrey Hepburn

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

A great way to reuse that dress from your great aunt’s funeral.

10. Rosie the Riveter

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Easy! All you need is a denim shirt, a bandana, and a can-do attitude.

11. Red Box movie rentals

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

This costume’s cheap, easy, and requires no planning whatsoever–just like renting from Red Box!

12. When life gives you lemons…hold up the lemons and shrug?

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Is she supposed to be the entire saying, or is she supposed to be life itself, about to give someone lemons? I’m confused. D minus.

13. Ariel from The Little Mermaid, moments after arriving on land.

Photo Credit: Bloomjoy Collective

Nice and simple. Just make sure you wash your bedsheet first.

14. A ceiling “fan”

Fellow procrastinators, we’ve found our patron saint.

15 Homemade Halloween Costumes That Are Way Better Than Store-Bought Ones

Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re like me, you haven’t even begun to think about your costume yet. And let’s be honest: we probably won’t start thinking about our costume until noon of the 31st at the very earliest. At that point, we’ll be forced to either pay through the nose for a store-bought costume, or we’ll throw something together using whatever’s available. Which is how I came up with my worst ever Halloween costume, “Guy in a Polo shirt.”

This year, let’s break the cycle! There’s still time to put together a costume that will be remembered for years. And below, you can get some inspiration from people who went all out on All Hallow’s Eve. (via Bored Panda).

I mean, all of us will definitely still procrastinate on our costumes again this year, but it’s nice to feel ambitious for a few minutes, isn’t it?

Panera Fired an Employee for Exposing How Their Mac and Cheese Is Made

Do you like Panera’s mac and cheese? I sure am. It’s the highlight of my meal when I go.

But recently you may have seen a viral TikTok showing just how it’s cooked – or, rather, reheated. Many viewers have expressed their dismay, but the shocks don’t end there: the employee was fired for her video!

Ok, let’s put aside the employee being fired for a second (just a second, I promise). Reheating (and cooking) food in food-safe plastic bags is actually a pretty standard method. If you aren’t familiar, sous-vide (the fancy name for cooking food sealed in plastic in a water bath) is a five-star chef way of cooking. In fact, there is a whole system behind it.

“Sous-vide is a cooking technique that utilizes precise temperature control to deliver consistent, restaurant-quality results. High-end restaurants have been using sous vide cooking for years to cook food to the exact level of doneness desired, every time.”

You can buy a fancy sous-vide setup for your home, or you can give it a low tech go by following these three simple steps – once you gather the right pot and thermometer you are ready.

1. Attach your precision cooker to a pot of water and set the time and temperature according to your desired level of doneness.

2. Put your food in a sealable bag and clip it to the side of the pot.

3. Finish by searing, grilling, or broiling the food to add a crispy, golden exterior layer.

This technique distributes heat at an even temperature around the food, giving it exact “done-ness.” Forget the scorching, or overcooked noodles – it’s consistent results, every time.

The only thing that could be wrong about Panera’s technique? How about a flash broil on the top to make the cheese bubbly? Cause, come on.

Ok, back to the employee being fired.

While Panera won’t comment on “personnel matters,” the employee posted this followup video:

And frankly, I think it was a missed opportunity – instead of firing their employee, they should have played it up to the media like, “Hey, we serve sous-vide mac and cheese just like Michelin chefs!”

Because corporate America doesn’t need to keep doing shady stuff to cover up shady stuff.

Just sayin’.

10 Examples of How Hilariously Dangerous Normal Things Were in the 1960s and ’70s

It was a different time…

The 1960s and 70s marked a time where people were more freewheeling with their personal safety, style and taste. Things were rapidly changing, and social norms were having some trouble catching up. There was a sense of not knowing any better mixed with a dash of I just don’t care because gas is really expensive and no one can find a job.

So, scroll through these old school hazards and feel good about stayin’ alive.

1. Girls ironed their hair straight…with an actual hot as hell iron.

Then, some genius invented the “hair straightener” and took all the fun out of burning your hair off.

2. Infant car seats were not at their apex of technology.

They were more of a suggestion than anything that would keep you snuggly strapped in and facing the way that would cause the least amount of damage to your cranium in a collision.
