0. The Inter-dimensional Friday thread... 30/10/2009 02:59:14 PDT

...nah not really... this is just the good old Friday thread as normal :-)

As you may know, this tomorrow is Halloween, and for many this means wearing costumes and doing scary things after dark. To others Halloween is just another day or something they saw on TV. Are you celebrating Halloween this weekend, and do you have a cool costume? Pictures please if you do ;-)

On a totally different topic, I thought I would talk a little about street-art. I must admit that I am a street-art aficionado, but I am not really a fan of the typical ugly graffiti tags and similar crap that is often seen on the streets in bigger towns and cities, but I do love beautiful or unusual art that can brighten your day, or make you think, or just take you out of your daily travel routines for just a second. Street art can be many things, and it can be made by many different people for many different reasons, but there are usually always some cool ideas or motives put into it. Examples can be seen on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_art

Over the last few years I have noticed that video game related street-art is becoming more popular, and in some of the cities I have visited, like for an example Paris and Copenhagen, I have fairly often seen figures, symbols and characters from video games in street-art. Mostly these are from classic 8-bit games though, but I have seen stuff from newer games as well. I have often wondered though, is there is any cool WoW themed street-art out there?

I know of two cool pieces of WoW street-art so far:

http://jenniferjeanlee.com/gallery/wowchalk/index2.html

Have you seen any cool WoW or video game related street-art somewhere?

If street-art is not your thing and you have no plans to celebrate Halloween, what are your plans for the weekend?

I've got an essay on Politics for Monday to /facepalm

On another note I'm hosting a Halloween party in my family old 3 story Victorian house.. I''m starting to decorate it later today got lots to do. My house is really suits it. My house is so scary at night all creaky and whimsical.

I'm also having trouble as choosing to what to go as.. I was thinking as going as the Dark Knight but thats to Cliché, this is the worst part... choosing what to go as. ):

I'm gonna carve pumpkins with my bestie, then bake pumpkin pies/other goodies, and hopefully we get to scare little children. :3 I'm gonna be a zombie.

Also, that troll is pretty awesome. I could only wish someone did something similar here (Latvia).

I'm curious... How do people know it's specifically the swine flu, and not any other flu? :]

Well I'm just guessing it is swine flu but I seem to have every symptom of it. Quite different compared to the regular flu.

You are incapable of rational thought! You will not think! You will not move! You will not clinch! You will not have random synapse in your brain housing, is that clear?

I have no costume, but I plan on doing scary things after dark ;-)

Hmmm... I actually do own a bowler hat, so perhaps I should dress up like Alex DeLarge from A Clockwork Orange.
