Sexy, Sexy Abraham Lincoln

posted by on October 9 at 15:27 PM

I’ve been busy working on the news section all day, and I haven’t had much time to Slog. However—in lieu of my usual angry-feminist post about sexy, sexy kitten/witch/fairy/trash collector costumes for women—I wanted to share with readers this awesome faux commercial, which parodies everything I’ve ever said about women’s Halloween costumes, and then some. (Get your hot angry feminist Halloween action over here.)

P.S. Although my favorite costume in this bunch is obviously “sexy 1900s steel conglomerate tycoon,” closely followed by “a frog,” I’m hoping someone will come up with a “sexy feminist” cartoon. Sexy Mary Wollstonecraft? Sexy Susan Faludi? The possibilities are endless.

I can't even begin to tell you how much this enrages me because I HAVE ALREADY INVENTED THIS JOKE. Last year, I literally was SEXY ABRAHAM LINCOLN, in response to Naughty Cop and Sexy Ladybug or whatever. Check it out: http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g89/alwaysmitch/Misc/100_6384.jpg

Several months ago, I decided upon Sexy Unabomber, with friends joining me as Sexy Jesus and Sexy Dale Chihuly. I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE COPYRIGHTED THAT SHIT.

Oh please @4, Sarah Silverman invented this joke like five years ago on Crank Yankers when she called up a costume shop trying to get a sexy Hitler costume.

@9 I am familiar with this shitty show that you speak of. Yes, Silverman called about the costume, but did she parade around town dressed as Sexy Hitler? NO.

This indicates a lack of joke-commitment to me. So, I'm going to go ahead and take credit for it.

You haven't seen sexy until you've seen the "poopie shorts" costume.

A friend of mine went as a sexy wet floor sign last year (sandwich board painted like one of those plastic wet floor signs and fishnet stockings).

Is there any ancient meme floating around the web that Erica won't hop on and hump within an inch of its life? Jesus.

I was totally going to set everyone straight about your Babe-raham Lincoln costume back in the day, Erin. Good thing you were here to do it yourself. You clearly win.
