i am being a hacker, as in, i'm lame and sitting here working on projects tonight because i can't go out.

:(

heh... that makes two of us. Damn bug!

three now.

woot, four!

dude, im gonna get disappointed with downtown palo alto tonight and get back into this f'n flash 10 bug on uploading files.

A fat loser who stays at home or work all the time, plays warcraft nonstop and pines after girls he knew in high school 15 years ago.

I'm not joking. :(

Every great thing we do is for the women we pine after. I believe that's been proven scientifically.

If I didn't have to work tonight, I'd dress like a Ruby programmer going to a job interview:

This must be like in the Princess Bride, where they each pretend to be left-handed, so the other will underestimate them.

i see at least a little ajax in that job posting.

dude, i was almost a ninja rockstar. then i realized id be a bad job posting...

I was a gorilla, my 4-month old daughter was a monkey, and my wife was the zookeeper.

...Except we didn't get a single trick-or-treater, so I spent my time downing a bottle of two buck chuck and installing Ubuntu 8.10. :)

I dressed up as a bar code.

Or, put another way: My 2006 Google SoC t-shirt was at the top of the pile when I woke up today. :-)

Scuba diver is such a cop-out, although a very impressive one. I was too lazy to put on the whole suit last year so I was just a snorkeler, so kudos to you!

I left the tank off, and the wife wouldn't let me wear flippers while carrying the baby. But I went with the long hose, thigh pocket, harness and wing.

You'll notice I left the steel backplate at home for this one. Too lazy to lug a heavy rig down the street even without a steelie 130 on it.

Especially when you're carrying a kid!

I put on a fedora and went as the guy with a hat from XKCD.

I went out as the man with the yellow hat. My kids were a cat, Darth Vader, and a giraffe.

A grammar nazi, complaining about your using "being" as an action verb.

A grammar nazi would actually be a hilarious costume if you could hang out with a crowd that wasn't too easily offended.

I was an unemployed investment banker. I wore a suit with all my shirt buttons off by one, tie hanging really loose, and a hobo sign (ripped cardboard) around my neck saying, "Jobless - Will work for food."

I wore my fencing gear, but I was fencing so I'm not sure if that qualifies as a costume per se. If I weren't broke I'd have worked my épée into a musketeer costume.

A pirate - fighting various ninjas that appeared. Some friends brought food and candy that I looted.

Black Jesus

I went as Henry Paulson, with a briefcase overflowing with bailout cash.

80's rocker with big long hair and cowboy boots.

I was a beer keg

employed.
