Halloween – Desi ishtlye, what costume do you like from our uber shop? This post brought to you by our team of uber bloggers –
8. Rajan Zed – Don the saffron. Declare yourself de-facto leader of all Hindus. Recite Hindu shlokas in the White House, Senate, House of Commons, the Diet, the local mall, your neighbour’s backyard, etc. Watch crappy movies at length, looking out for perceived slights to Hinduism and organize protests. If crappy movie flops, attribute it to the wrath of gods.
7. Lou Dobbs -Blame global warming, Toyota Priuses, Sinking economy, Falling house prices, McCain losing, American Educations system, your chai latte being too cold and not being able to find parking on “illegal” immigrants. You can also chose to leave the illegal part out. Lou Dobbs, booooou dobbs!!
6. Indian Paparazzi – Try using your street smart skills in the worst way possible, pry open the private lives of celebrities, make their lives miserable and ape the paparazzi of the west, if you find a princess nearby, hound her without bothering about the consequences. No special costume needed. Or be ready to grab private moments of their lives, bending down, adjusting costumes, wardrobe malfunction, kissing a co-star, and make thousands while scaring them.
5. BCCI selectors – You can scare the sh*t out of the fab-4, stand outside their houses with signboard having the message ’selected’ on one side and ‘not selected’ on another. Watch the joy and gloom descend on their faces and their quarter billion regional fans, when you keep changing the facing signboard sign with every breath you take. Costume: Vengsarkar hat and the likes. You can have an additional victim from ICL players with always a ‘No’ staring at their faces.
4. Raj Thakre – In those trademark specs, and clothing that will resemble your uncle’s clothing closely, wear it and go to your nearest ‘North’ Indian neighbors and spout nonsense , try to scare them or get them beaten, run to the nearest theatre playing a Rajnikanth movie and demand back Rajnikanth from Tamil Nadu on account of Maratha pride. For costumes – try the wrong spelling of Thakre and find images and design your own. For your convenience try – Google Marathi.
3. Delhi’s blue line – Paint yourself a blue bus, and it’s a riot, literally! Watch people run helter skelter.
2. The religion-less terrorist – Wear a skull cap and stand in a crowded place or near a temple with a ’suspicious’ look on your face, or wear a sadhvi’s dress, go on a motorcycle to the nearest mosque and just stand. You could also try going to the nearest church, and wave your flaming torch, especially in Orissa, it might work (caution: Try it if you are an idiot). Freak away people!
1. Job Market – Boooooooo! The most fearful costume of this year, banking, financial services, and real-estate take the worst hit. For a costume, wear a black ghostly dress that may or may not cover your pretty face and put a ‘Job Market jinx’ signboard to it, scare away people around you for some solitude. Or wear a name tag from one of the companies that went under. If you want to be an elitist, you can shave your head and go as Neel Kashkari
