Considering Halloween always falls right around Georgia-Florida football weekend, I'm usually either in a football party, preparing for a football party, and/or are generally too hungover from said party to care.

Well, in hindsight it does look awfully strange to comment about slutty costumes and then immediately follow-up with the fact that I'm not going out to view said costumes.
As I tell my fiancee: I'm not dead, I'm monogamous. Because I am committed to her doesn't mean every other female on the planet suddenly became ugly.

Back when I was a partygoer, I had one costume every year. People actually looked forward to it, it was a tradition. Of course, the 'costume' part was almost nothing:



It was the amazingly not-pc character acting that made it. And beer.

Oh, my wife and I have the same agreement. She constantly watches me watch a girl go by and loudly comments 'I'm RIGHT here!'  I just don't do things like Halloween pubs crawls, etc. anymore where slutty costumes abound.

And I really really want to play Hellgate:London

Exactly, which is why it's so imperitive to look; the wife will still be standing there, but whomever you're looking at is going on by.  If you don't look you'll miss out.

Night before Halloween, yearly party at my buddies place. Day of, sleep it off. Wake up, wait for the midnight release of Hellgate and quite possibly never return to society again. Oh and I always watch that shitty Halloween movie every year on TBS. The one where the kids put on the masks and watch a commercial and it turns their heads into snakes etc. It's so cheesy it's beautiful.

Hellgate: London. Also, the 3 days after that is Hellgate.

Same.  I'm going to watch Event Horizon and play Hellgate.  I'll probably eat candy too.

The day before Halloween I will go with a friend and maybe the rest of my tabletop games group to a haunted house thingie.
Halloween itself I may dress up as I have half a costume right now and go to my cousin's massively boring but nicely decorated Halloween party for an hour or two.
(i'm starting a DONT WASTE MONEY DUMBASS lifestyle which limits how much i permit myself to spend per month on useless but generally entertaining stuff.  Videogames and silly Halloween things are in this category.)
Nobody ever comes to my house for candy and being on a diet since December  (Its working well though it makes me crankier than normal..) means its for the best I don't even buy any lest it be eaten in a matter of hours and whatnot...

I will then come home and probably play Galactic Assault, Dawn of War, Links 2003, or another video/computer game to be determined while listening to MSNBC.   I may watch South Park/Mythbusters on DVR later in the night depending on new episode availability. 

Edit: And it is on Wednesday so I may go play Warhammer 40K beforehand too.  Itll give me an excuse to show up at my cousin's party later and leave earlier if its dead like last time.  And a reason to not finish my costume till next year.  My sword, gauntlets, amulet, and makeup should be fine till next year. I haven't been able to find a proper plasma pistol type weapon for my outfit anyways, and my airsoft guns aren't usable with my gauntlets..

I envy you guys with Halloween being a holiday. Here in the UK its the night I make sure I leave work early to avoid gangs of teenagers who use it as an excuse to commit, what the police put as "anti social behaviour".

Hmm Kent. That's usually where I have to sleep when I make it up there. Not bad or anything, but there isn't much to do there.

In the US, that's what happens the night before Halloween.  Well, at least more than usual.  Mischief Night.  Of course, I consider well fed kids begging for food to be sort of strange, too.  At least in the UK, they go straight for the wallet.  Much smarter! Penny for the guy?

I'm conflicted. I can go to a party that will likely have hot cowgirls and she-devils at it, but that means I need a costume.

This obviously means you go as a cowboy or man-devil. There's a commercial on TV where these four guys go to a halloween party as an exact companion to four girls. I'm sure it's on youtube someplace.

I had a friend one time go as a doctor/nurse duo. He dressed his own legs as tights and his torso as a doctor's lab coat deal and had a doll bent over in front of him all night.


Absolutely hilarious.

Halloween is the day after my kitty has his manhood destroyed so whether or not we turn off all the front lights and ignore any knocking depend on him.  If we do answer the door, we'll be handing out my usual goody bags for a couple of hours.
