omg halloween

It might come as a complete surprise to anyone who has seen the Crazy in Love video, but Hov and I hate the word and concept of sexy. We also HATE Lady Gaga, despite whatever spark you think you saw in that short film we shot for Telephone (what does holding in vomit sound like?). Consequently, finding appropriate attire for this weekend is an absolute nightmare.

First we went to the Halloween HQ that Hov commissioned to open up right outside of her new downtown location. it was weird. On to Halloween Adventure.

The people who work here are really frightening (especially the girls that work in the stripper shoe department) and the whole place is horribly claustrophobic. As an aside, we did make a friend in the pancho section (I love panchos).

Anyway this is where we really got costume-reflexive. As EVERYONE should know, I'm a huge fan of dog costumes with people bodies attached to them (though I really hate those weimaraner fairy tales) and baby costumes with no feet holes. This year, ironically (also like telephone? is lady gaga ironic? I don't get it! those stupid shoes.) I have a new obsession: sexy occupational costumes.

They're cool because literally everything not sexy is not only made to be, but it's someone's job to think up pun-ny names for all of them (I love puns). Ex. the other night HOV and I sat down with stylist/mope-er in residence Henry and Christian Meininger, and mused about the possibility of sexy nuns and priests and as if by some form of divine providence, what costume do you think we found on our Halloween Adventure?

I want a sexy costume so bad this year. Like so bad, a cab driver specifically, but it's risky readers! What if people think I think I'm fooling them into thinking that it's not about the sexiness its about the cleverness of the occupation? Like, I was going to go for the other taxi driver costume but just dressing as a guy in a jacket was too subtle...I'm not going to spend all night explaining myself to you! It's too soon to be "a girl in a sexy occupational costume" itself for halloween. Do you see the distinction? I don't want to use the word meta, mostly because I'm not sure it's appropriate here, but...do you hate me as much as Lady Gaga yet?

Moral: We are on the look out for best sexy occupational costumes. Why don't guys wear these more often? Edward...plz?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Update from the new HQ

Edward Chaffetz once said of Money Cash Hoes "Tres amusant. Maybe it'll keep me sane while at work. Don't let it die, keep the updates on the reg."
And look what we have done. It has been almost exactly a year since our last post and while the headquarters has unfortunately been dissolved, B & I have been listening to your requests:
"Matthew William Brown: Revive the blog! August 14 at 5:24pm" (duh, he had his own section)
Although we can no longer sit in 209, calc class, or a CAVA truck; skateboard or swing in Riverside, we have vowed to keep the headquarters alive via our love for Chris Kirkpatrick, Hov & B, JB, or just plain grantics.


So here is a little update from the not so HQ for our once faithful readers.

The moose has been relocated to what one could call a temporary headquarters



AVL is now dropping things all around Abu Dhabi however makes the occasional trip to NYC



MDubs lives around the corner and is about to start forgetting things again



B (who has been going by the name Laurenzo as of late) still does many things in a one piece



The C&B cuddle corner has welcomed some new members (shoutout to Louise)



And Chris Kirkpatrick, to who we owe everything, is still featured prominently in what some may consider one of the greatest music videos ever made (thank you Rose)
