Post Malone Surprised That Fans Can Recognize Him With A Hat And Glasses On

Rapper Post Malone recently went “undercover” as a record store employee in a stunt to promote his new partnership with the online fundraising platform Omaze.

There was only one problem: The “disguise” consisted of just a cap and a pair of reading glasses. It’s almost like the creators took their cue from “The Princess Diaries,” “She’s All That” and “Miss Congeniality” (plus countless other films), and thought that a pair of specs could make someone invisible.

Spoiler alert: They definitely don’t.

While the disguise was certainly questionable, the stunt was for a good cause. Omaze is offering the opportunity for one person to win a new Bentley convertible and drive around Los Angeles with the rapper in an effort to raise money for Folds of Honor, a nonprofit which provides scholarships to the children and spouses of fallen and disabled service members.

Fantasy Football

There is nothing funny about what’s going on in the real NFL right now, but this fantasy football costume is a great way to use a <a href="http://christopherarthurrichards.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/fantasy-football.jpg" target="_blank">Snuggie, a spectre of some kind, and a football helmet.</a>

Purple Wedding From "Game Of Thrones"

We’re sure many of your friends will don some "Game of Thrones" garb for Halloween (because who doesn't want to feel like they’re as awesome as the characters on that show)? But you know <a href="http://ianjmediaaddict.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/joffrey-the-purple-wedding-the-lion-and-the-rose.png" target="_blank">who wasn't awesome? Joffrey</a>. Celebrate the end of his reign of terror with a crown, some medieval clothing and purple face makeup and blood coming out of your nose. Hey, at least you will terrify people.

Chris Hadfield (Kind Of)

Everyone’s favourite astronaut is in the public-speaking phase of his career now, but we love him best from his days floating in space and singing Bowie tunes. Why not combine the two with a space suit, a fake moustache (or real, if you’re devoted to authenticity), and some Aladdin Sane-era Bowie face paint?

The Bieber Mugshot

Poor Justin Bieber —  no, scratch that. Most of you probably don't feel sorry for Bieb's summer of criminal mix-ups, but we can all agree we love this mugshot. You’re going to need orange scrubs, an inappropriately wide smile and a lot of hair gel.

Bojack Horseman

Finally, this <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3398228/" target="_blank">Netflix series</a> provides you with a good excuse to wear that creepy horse head <a href="http://www.partycity.ca/product/horse+head+mask.do?kwid=horse%20head%20mask&qcid=&ref=ci&srccode=cii_363499683&cpncode=33-343286591-2&extcmp=google_PCCAPLA" target="_blank">someone left at your house after a party.</a>

The PSL

This is the autumn that the pumpkin spice latte went from a thing that people like to drink a couple of times a year to total ubiquity. When you make your <a href="http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/originals/35/7f/5e/357f5eaa21b1c38862b60a3c662c9ae7.jpg" target="_blank">DIY costume</a> using a garbage can painted white, make sure to spell your name incorrectly on the side.

Unimpressed Jack White

Jack White unwittingly became the perfect meme this year when he showed up at a <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/23/jack-white-cubs-game_n_5612920.html" target="_blank">Chicago Cubs game looking like he wished someone had not, in fact, taken him out to the ball game</a>. Turns out he has a history of <a href="http://www.spin.com/articles/sad-jack-white-cubs-baseball-game-photo-stadium/" target="_blank">sour-faced behaviour at sporting events</a>. This is an easy DIY for men and women: retro Cubs jersey, black bob wig, frown to rival Grumpy Cat.

The Retro You

Grab your old school glasses and sweater (you can find one at a thrift shop) and get yourself a piece of cardboard. Using either paper or paint, create yourself a retro school photo background and attach it to the back of your sweater. Classic.

Alberta's Early Winter

OK, this might not be funny if you’re actually in Alberta, but for the rest of the country, you know that the sight of <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/09/07/calgary-snow-september_n_5779898.html" target="_blank">snow on the ground in Alberta in early September</a> provided you with a bit of shadenfreude. Get a bit more fun out of it for Halloween: throw on a parka over your Western shirt, put some Yaktrax on your cowboy boots and some fake snow around your cowboy hat, and paint your lips blue.

Seinfeld

This one takes “funny” very literally by emulating one of the <a href="http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Arts/Arts_/Pictures/2008/05/13/seinfeld460x276.jpg" target="_blank">best television comedies ever.</a> You can go as one of the individual characters, sure, but it’s really better if you have four people. Any side characters you can rope in are a bonus.

404 Error

The person who shows up at a Halloween party with no costume is usually a bummer. This version, however, is pretty good.

Troll Doll

We’ve hit the point where the ‘90s are cool again, which is the perfect time to <a href="http://www.jamiliajean.com/?p=400" target="_blank">break out this troll doll costume</a>.

This works for any age, but the kid costume is reason enough to have a child all on its own.
