Costume Ideas if You're Single this Halloween

Couples costumes are great, but not so much fun when you're single. Joint costumes often get all the attention on Halloween, but there are ways to shine without the need of a significant other. Here are some ways you can dress up this Halloween to prove to the world that you're just fine on your own. Yes, I'm fine, stop asking me.

1.) A Farmer

This one is cute, but easy. All you'll need is a farmer's hat, a flannel that still smells like him, and maybe even some vegetables, like, say, tomatoes that you can throw at his house. You can just wear jeans with this costume, and bring an extra pair of your underwear that you can leave in his mailbox so he remembers what he lost.

2.) Zombie Princess Diana

The prophesy did predict she would rise 20 years after her "death." All you have to do is stab some of your ex's Facebook friends with a tiara, wear that tiara, and you'll look just like the undead princess out for revenge against the royal family that deserted her after her split from Prince Charles.

3.) A Member of the Dying Middle Class

If you dress like this you'll be sure to get a lot of laughs! Just wear what you normally wear, but walk through a rich neighborhood. The free caviar you get when the aristocrats throw it at you telling you to "go back to the slums, filthy dog" will make it all worth it.

4.) Someone Who Doesn't Need Romance to be Happy

This one is easy! All you need is a white shirt, tie (any color), poison to slip in the food of your former lover, an alibi that puts you far away from the scene of the crime, a lawyer who's willing to lie to keep you out of prison, a judge who is able to be bribed, and a pair of those glasses with the fake nose and mustache attached. You might have to explain this one at a party, but it will be worth it when Timothy finally gets what he deserves!

5.) The "Heart Eyes" Emoji

Anyone who's ever sent a text will love this! Just extract the hearts from two people (maybe your exes?) and tape them to your face. If your face is not already jaundiced, yellow face paint will help it look all the more like an emoji. It can get a little messy, but don't let that keep you from smiling!

6.) Peanut Butter

It doesn't matter if someone promised they would go to your coworker's party with you as jelly but then dumped you two days before Halloween without giving you a real reason, peanut butter is still a great costume! It also doesn't matter if they still have the peanut butter costume that you made and won't return your calls and you don't have time to make a new one, just spread peanut butter on a white t-shirt and it'll look fine!

7.) Instagram

This one is fun, who doesn't love the mega-popular image sharing app? Find a large piece of cardboard (like part of a refrigerator box) and cut a square near the top so that YOU can be the photo. Paint it white to match the color of the app, and then use a sharpie to add the details to make it your own, like a fake username because he blocked you, or hundreds of likes to show him how you don't need him because you're popular now.

8.) A Scientist

A lab coat, some big glasses, and a test tube are all you to pull this costume together! You'll be the smartest one at any party, but somehow still not smart enough to not fall for the same type of guy over and over. It might be fun to fill your test tube with a green liquid and pretend it's a deadly pathogen, or maybe the cure for a heart that was broken by the one person you trusted the most in the world.

Painful Pain

With my eyes I cry, the tears tear tears In my skin, like shards of glass. And I bleed emotion. Emotion that cuts at my heart, like another shard of glass, And breaks it, like a rock through a pane of glass. A pane that is painful whenever it is touched and falls apart like a shattering of glass. A shattering that scatters my smattered pain. Painful pain, full of glass and empty burrito wrappers

9 Questions to NEVER Ask a Gay Person

As a gay person, it’s common to get frustrating questions. If you consider yourself an ally and have asked one of these before, reconsider how you interact with queer people! 1 .) "How many people have you killed?" Wow... just, no. The fact that someone dates people of the same gender does NOT mean they're also a serial murderer. Don't just assume that your gay coworker has a mass grave in their backyard: if they've taken the lives of several people, trust me, they'll tell you! 2.) " So who's the man and who's the woman in the relationship? " Not everyone speaks English. Its offensive to assume that everyone speaks the same language as you. Newsflash: America doesn't have a national language, so not everyone is going to know what you're saying. Try to be understanding of the fact that some Americans never learned English. 3.) " What's the circumference of the earth? " There's nothin...

Making Sacrifices in Housing Choices: The Millennial Reality

Millennials get a lot of criticism from older generations like Baby Boomers and ancient spirits trapped in the old tree outside my dentist's office. Some of it is fair, but most of it, in my experience, is unfair. I think any generation has members who complain too much, are entitled, or think the world revolves around them, so w hen I hear people criticizing Millennials as "selfish" or "lazy" or "crying too loudly in the Taco Bell drive thru," I can't help but roll my eyes. In all honesty, most Millennials I know are selfless, determined, and only cry in the drive thru at Wendy's. Many of us are struggling to survive in an economic climate that doesn't give us the jobs we went to school for, so we have made a lot of sacrifices in order to make ends meet. For instance, I have recently begun living life as a house cat in order to stay with a couple rent-free. It took a lot of humility for me to agree to live this way. I had been s...

Now is Not the Time to Politicize the Tragedies That Have Happened Inside This Haunted House

In wake of recent events, my thoughts and prayers are with the victims who went missing after our group split up inside the abandoned house to find any valuable heirlooms that had been left behind after the late homeowner died under mysterious circumstances. This tragedy is unspeakable, because many of our mouths have been sealed shut by some otherworldly substance, and I send my warmest condolences to whichever dimension our friends’ souls are tethered to. Right now is a time for consoling the survivors, and mourning the loss of our beloved companion, who told us that she didn't believe in ghosts, right before a phantom emerged from a dusty hallway mirror and pulled her into it. We will never forget the terrified look in her eyes as she pounded her fists on the glass that she was trapped behind. My thoughts and prayers are also with the couple who we heard screaming in what we believe was the very bedroom where the dead body of a priest was found, his lifeless hands clutchin...
