Today, I excitedly checked the mail to see if my Halloween costume finally arrived. It didn't. I live in an isolated city, so finding a costume by any other means than the Internet was impossible. I spent over $100 for a costume that I won't even get to wear this year. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was excited to finally receive my Halloween costume in the mail after the one I ordered back in September got lost in transit. Upon reaching my mailbox, I saw the lock had been broken off and my new costume had been stolen. The party is tomorrow. FML
Today, my Halloween costume finally showed up in the mail. Their consolation for a late delivery? A 50 cent discount. FML
Today, I finished making an awesome costume for a Halloween party my crush was attending. I then checked the invite and found out the party was last night. FML
Today, my 3 year old daughter's Halloween costume finally got delivered. FML
Today, my company had a Halloween party. I was so excited seeing as our company never does anything, so I pulled out all the stops with my costume. I was the only one who got dressed up. FML
Today, I bought a Halloween costume for my cat. FML
Today, I spent over $160 and 2 hours preparing for a Halloween party I was throwing. The only person who showed up was my sister, who helped me decorate. FML
Today, I went to a costume party dressed as Prince. As I walked into the party, I realized that I was the only one who hadn't received the memo that the costume part of the party had been cancelled. I spent the evening awkwardly mingling with a group of confused strangers while dressed in purple satin. FML
Today, I dressed up like a pirate, dressed my dog as a parrot and bought $30 worth of candy to pass out to trick-or-treaters. I waited by the door for 3 hours. Not one kid came. FML
Today, I was home alone and decided to try on my Halloween costume, a giant inflatable dinosaur suit. As I was prancing around the living room, my doorbell rang. Without thinking, I answered it. It was the mailman with a package. The look on his face as he handed a T-rex a box was priceless, but now he probably thinks I’m nuts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Grab a few extension cords from around the house- a USB cord, an iPhone cord, etc (or whatever phone you use) and place them on and wrapped around you. Go as a "random hookup" :)

If you have clothes similar to what you'd wear to a club, dress up, use your makeup to put yourself in character and be a zombie superstar/dead diva or something. Red food coloring or baby powder do wonders for special effects makeup. With Halloween, there's no such thing as over-the-top! (unless you go as a nudist)

Ontario? Our postal service isn't the greatest, granted, but if you know that deliveries take a while then you should've ordered it sooner. The best costumes are made at home with random shit lying around. Skull facepaint + buttloads of rolled gauze + fake blood = undead mummy. I did it once. Didn't have enough gauze so I went as a slutty undead mummy. Went over amazingly at the party o went to.
