Feb 26 2009It's A Little Early: Hole-y Halloween Costume
It's never too early to start planning your next Halloween costume. In fact, I've got my costumes planned through 2016: Link, Link, Link, a Goron, a Zora, Link, a pirate, Dracula. Awh yeah, baby. But if you want to go as a guy with a wig on and a hole through his gut, go for it. All you need is a little LCD screen and video camera.
By using a travel DVD player strapped to my stomach, with video coming from a digital camera strapped to my back, it creates the illusion that I have a very large hole in my stomach.
Flickr user 'evanbooth', the creator, calls the costume the 'The Gaping Hole'. Which, ironically, is what I call the ex. *swish* Count it!
Hit the jump for a picture of the actual setup.
Freak out your friends with the Gaping Hole Costume [newlaunches]

All he needs is a fake pair of breast and he's got a great costume (fake breast always improve your Halloween costume). Oh, and maybe some comically over-sized sun glasses. Other than that, great costume.

I've seen a better set up. And you can order free pens. Pen Island is the name, and the website is that plus a dot-com. Free pens!
28. john - February 26, 2009 12:31 PM

He went a long way with the technical end - not so far with the costume end of things.

Cool costume btw. I want a chick to show her boobies behind me so they can show through my gaping hole. Err.

If true joy is what you seek try www.MoebiusSyndromeporn.com. It is a place for the average people to visit with the true Moebius Syndrome girls!!
41. ninjaajnin - February 26, 2009 4:14 PM
I wasn't spamming, I was trying to get some idiots to type in a website that only makes more sense as one word. But then explaining it kind of takes the laughter out of it. Kind of like when you realized your peepee isn't any bigger than it was when you were four.
@29-30: You obviously don't get a simple joke. I know how your parents feel. Disappointed.
42. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 26, 2009 5:47 PM
That is awesome, I'm impressed.

I don't know whether to interpret that as harmless bro-love or straight out homosexuality.
44. Daisey - February 26, 2009 8:27 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is like the time in Never back down when then the guy gets tagged teamed by 3 greasy big d!cked lacrosse players in the bathroom and they gape his ass hole so wide you could see his tonsils. Who knew the sphincter was so stretchy

Looks like a weird Beyond Birthday.
