Halloween is coming up in a few weeks, so of course that means I couldn’t resist sharing with you some of the worst Halloween costume ideas I’ve come across.

The Plug-In Outlet Halloween Costume:

It’s scary all right…scary that anyone would actually dress up in this! This one is from Things You Never Knew Existed.

Baby Wonder Bread Halloween Costume:

They’ll be wondering all right…wondering what the heck you were thinking forcing your kid into a costume like this one…What kid dreams of being bread for Halloween? You can get it here. Yes, there is one for adults, too!

The Car Freshener:

This one simply just wouldn’t work for a kid…one whiff of that diaper and there’d be no fooling anybody that you’re not a real car freshener. I’m sure you can find some better kids halloween costumes out there somewhere! Also available in an adult costume…from Amazon.

The Lost Dog Costume

Um…Do I really need to go into why this one made it to my list of the 10 worst Halloween costumes? You can see this one here.

Genie in a Lamp

This is one genie I would not want making all my wishes come true! Get it here.

Tinky Winky Adult Teletubbies Costume

While this one would be okay for a kid, there’s something very unsettling about this picture! Something like an Adult Tinky Winky TeleTubbies Costume should probably not exist.

My Peeps

Maybe because I associate Peeps with our Peep torturing Easter rituals…but even so, this still makes it to my list of the 10 worst Halloween costumes. From Amazon.

The Breathalyzer

In my experience, a Breathalyzer at a Halloween party is typically not a good sign…See more here.

The Giant Boob Costume

I could be wrong, but it just seems like something is missing from this Giant Boob Costume.

The Rat Trap

There’s nothing like wearing a Halloween costume that makes people not want to sit next to you.

So that’s it, my list of the 10 Worst Halloween costumes, I’ve also got some bad ideas for anyone interested in couples Halloween Costumes. Actually, they’re not as bad as these, but the Bacon & Eggs one I put over there should really be over here!

What’s the worst Halloween costume you’ve seen? You know I want to hear all about it!

Everybody has widgets somewhere on their blog. Some are neat, entertaining, even useful. So what are the dumbest blog widgets ever? I think I found them!

Dumb Blog Widget #1: Wax On Wax Hoff

Go ahead - try your luck at waxing off chest hair, complete with sound effects and comments. If this doesn’t keep your blog visitors around, what will? You can see it here.

Dumb Blog Widget #2: Shave My Yeti

If waxing isn’t your thing, maybe you could offer to your blog visitors instead a Yeti to shave? Why not?  Check it out here.

Dumb Blog Widget #3: Flight of the Hamsters

The instructions were too small for me to read to understand the rules or the point of the game, but it has something to do with launching hamsters into the air and then watching them splat on the ground. See if you can figure it out.

Dumb Blog Widget #4: Happy Sex Hour

This widget allows you to spin the wheel and it chooses a position for you and your partner. I’m guessing if you’re spinning this wheel, you are probably too young to be spinning it anyways.

Dumb Blog Widget#5: MyDogSpace

A MySpace for Dogs!!! says it all with this best dumb blog widget. It really doesn’t even do anything, just links to MyDogSpace.com. See it here.

Dumb Blog Widget#6: Peanut Butter Jelly Time

If your blogging objectives are to annoy visitors to make sure they never return, this dancing banana is for you. It is seriously so bad I can only share the picture and the link, I would go nuts listening to this on my own site. See what I mean here.

Dumb Blog Widget #7: LeekSpin

Watch a girl singing and spinning a leek around. Over and over again. Forever. I have no idea what she is singing about, so hopefully it is not anything obscene! This one is not as annoying as the banana one, but still thought I would link to it here so you don’t have to be forced to listen to it.

If you don’t already have a blog, it might be time to get some blog hosting and start one just so you can have these dumb blog widgets on your site!

So what do you think? Do you like any of these widgets? Which one seems to be the dumbest blog widget to you? Have a favorite weird or unusual blog widget I may have missed? Comments are always welcome

I have nothing to share with you on ebay this week. I couldn’t find anything that I haven’t already seen before or interesting. I’m not sure if this is good or bad - good because people are finally starting to stop selling totally stupid things for outrageous prices, bad because I have nothing to showcase this week.

Maybe you can find something to share? Click here for eBay!

It’s been a busy week for me. I could give you the details, but you’d probably be bored pretty fast.

Instead, I though I’d share some of the things I read/found that made me laugh and caught my attention this week and are worthy of a blue ribbon or two:

Do Aliens Exist? I don’t know the answer to the question, but I enjoyed Freelance Guru’s post The Truth is Out There: Do Aliens Exist? Those unfamiliar with the Freelance Guru, he’s a funny guy that lives on top of a pole and answers important questions.

Big Bald Pappa: I just recently started reading this blog after our launch of the Adspace Contest. If you want to see some funny pictures, he’s got a nice collection of Chinese to American translations gone wrong that are pretty funny.

The NES Controller Coffee Table: You can keep your Playstation 3’s and X Boxes, I am loyal to the original Nintendo Introduced to me by Geek Mom Mashup this week, you can see full pictures and instructions on making a giant, working NES Controller Coffee Table at the Ultra Awesome Blog.

TiggyBlog: This is always a fun site to visit, my favorite from reading this week was her post on How to Cure Internet Addiction with Other Addictions. (Yes, that post was from last week, but I’ve been busy and just catching up on things now!)

Did you see something funny you enjoyed this week? Have something I might have missed? Share it with me!
