No.

I chose a Halloween costume early, but then I got cold feet and tried to brainstorm new ideas with the help of Facebook friends. I also thought up a few on my own while I was trolling stores, looking at everything they had and attempting to decide if the item would help me make a costume. 

In the end, I decided to go with my original idea, which is Wichita from Zombieland. Maybe you'd like to be her as well? I suppose you could last minute her fairly easily.

Sometimes you think to yourself, "Ugh, I am too damn old to go out for Halloween. I can't trick-or-treat without getting dirty looks from people. I don't know anyone that's having a party. Meh. No costume this year!" So you prepare for a Halloween evening spent in sweatpants, watching the Final Destination series, and handing out candy to costumed kids.

And then, like magic, someone decides to have a party and you suddenly need to slap together something other than Sweatpants Lady for a costume. I've been there, believe me. I present to you my ten ideas for easy and non-lame costumes that you can throw together with some items most people have on hand at home. Be warned, I'm a pop culture freak, so these won't be plain or pun-filled.
