Boo Friendly Person:

The Space Cowboy Halloween party is right around the corner, but if you’re anything like me (busy-busy-busy), you haven’t had a chance to put together your costume yet. Since going out in street clothes is lame, and staying home tomorrow night is not an option, I thought I’d share with you the reliable idea that never fails—it is to costumes what a booty call is to getting laid, a guaranteed back-up fuck that won’t let you down: The Zombie.

Zombies are simple, instantly recognizable, and if you really think about it, Zombie costumes can be more versatile than a roll of duct tape. You could be a New Zombie, an Old Zombie, a Raver Zombie, a Hooker Zombie, a Burner Zombie, a Cheerleader Zombie, a Cop Zombie, an Inbred Zombie, an Office Zombie, Gangsta Zombie, a Super Hero Zombie, or just a I Was Gonna Donate This Old Leisure Suit to Good-will But Instead I’m Using It As a Costume Zombie.

Walk around grunting a lot. Like you’re hungover, or horny beyond the ability to speak. “Grraaaghafffaggah!” Every once in a while say something like, “Brains,” or “More Brains,” if you just ate some but want a second serving. Or say, “I like turtles!” Whatever, as long as you stagger and grunt and look like the living dead, you’re basically doing it right. Zombies are heroes at accessorizing: If you have a spare prosthetic to carry around, gore-up the amputated part, make it look nasty, and carry it around, taking bites once in a while. A severed head is always a hit parties. Really, any body part would look good. Make sure to only order red drinks at the bar, like Cape Cods, Cosmos, and anything with cran, or Sangria, and of course Bloody Marys.

Once you get your Zombified-self together, get into character and stay that way. When you head to our party at Temple on Saturday, make sure to terrorize the people on MUNI or walking on the street. Remember, they’re just food to you. And when you’re finished, they’ll be Zombies, too. (In that manner, the spread of Zombism isn’t all that different from many religions.)
