    It's October, guys and ghouls! You know what time it is?

    [size=+1]Annual Cosplay Excuse Day![/size]​

    You can walk about in your favourite costume without feeling weird and no one will stop you! In fact, they will give you sweets! Or you can partake of the incredible amounts of booze. Or even of all the food that was one colour but has now been made orange just to coincide with the holiday season. Because extraneous E Numbers are what it's all about.

    So, while the munchkins are out of their minds on orange and black Smarties and the adults are slowly getting way too slow in their mental faculties to put one face in front of the other or wipe the excess mascara from their feet, I shall probably be curious about not only what I'm wearing and where I'll be.

    The issue is making the bloody thing...

    How does Rarity do this? I swear, I have lost a pint of blood in pinpricks alone. Then there's the whisker I sheared off when I was trying to get my lines correct! A whole whisker! I'm starting to think it would have been an easier idea to simply borrowed some Androginoil from Rockout and go as the embodiment of Rule 63 but it's like using somepony's heart medication in your macaroni art. I'd sooner take an amputees' prosthetics and pretend I'm Doctor Octopus.

    No, I had to think of something much better...It took me a little while too. The idea was simple but I kinda like the idea I came up with. It ought to be great to spook some people when I'm done.

    That is, if I survive making it. I am fully prepared for the eventuality that I'll end up going through the sewing machine and end up with my arm attached to my face.

    To give me a second in order to thread this needle right here, how about you peruse this nice and shiney song update list? This week is quite special as the Rainbow Rocks sound track has landed on our humble radio. Very fancy-pants, if you ask-OH JUST GET IN THE...

    I'm all right...I'm all right...I just need more coffee and then I can sleep when this is done. Coffee is good for when your clocking in 15 hours without sleep. All nighters are fine. Even three in a row. But I lost time in those moments I passed out on. I'm good...

    I don't know what this is but I'm sure it's perfectly fine. Something about getting Aviator's songs into the next version of Just Dance. You know, the game where you flail your body around for your Xbox's entertainment and it scores you on it? If this is a thing you enjoy, I'd say go for it.

    Ugh...My paws are 70% plasters at this point...

    Do you like conventions? Of course you do. That's why you might like to hear of the continuing adventures in cosplay and merch from the one and only Yami. There's some really neat looking One Piece stuff there. As a rather obvious Game Enthusiast over Anime Enthusiast, I have to admit some of these costumes fly right over my head. But I like the guy dressed as Duffy D Fluffy. He looks awesome!

    LGBT in Games. I'm not sure I need to say much more, especially when tapping keyboard keys is like a new melody of being acutely aware of every new hole in my paws. It's a hot button issue about something that can be pretty hard to nail in your media while being fair and balanced. Like this needle, of which if I didn't need, would be embedded in the nearest wall.

    ...Oh! I got it! Neat good...Wait, this is the wrong colour thread...Whatever, it's too late now...Purple and orange, who'd notice?

    Purple Pony is making quite a name for herself. Apparently, she recently did a photoshoot. I'm assuming this her, but if you ever wanted to see the travels of what appears to be Princess Zelda in a wood, then this is your lucky day. They're nice snaps, even if I'd question some of the composition choices. Ah, that could be the artist in me or the pretty spots in my vision. I'll just go make some more coffee.

    Sometimes a Ninja has to go to work, even if it's prom night.

    Congratulations to Crimson and Katanga for their personal milestones. Keep it going guys!

    Speaking of Crimson, let's do reviews. Firstly, Crimson has taken a look at the recent Marvel movie; Guardians of the Galaxy, the sequel to the enjoyable Gamecube classic on the 3DS. Meanwhile, in mega, hyper detail for some reason, I've gone and reviewed Luigi's Mansion 2; the Sci-Fi, comic book, action adventure!

    Check them out. They work hard on them. Who ever they are...

    It appears that Vulpine Taco has been rummaging around in the Everypony attic for some old photos of the site, right back when it was first created. Looking pretty naked there, huh? Back in ye olde Grey Knightmare days. I'm sure it'll make some of our more long standing members blush.

    Oh! I should probably mention this one...Wait, all the templates I drew out are squiggles. I don't have time, squiggly cut outs are OK. Anyway! Vulpine Taco offered a contest to draw something for his new podcast idea. If you would like to help out, please
    check it out.

    OK! Oh my word! I think it's done! I can see it now! It's...actually floating up into the air. Aww...It wants to cuddle. OK Mr Costume, I'll cuddle right up here and...and...

    Found Tyro cuddling a sewing machine that he'd somehow put a bag over with a lopsided smile face on it, muttering something about heart medication, dancing for an Xbox overlord and Grey Knightmare saving the Galaxy with a Vacuum cleaner. After some caffeine detox and a weeks sleep, he'll be back to normal. Maybe. Everypony apologizes for any distress caused and damages to property as a result of a sleep deprived kitsune attempting to cut costume panels out of clothing.

    It's 'weird', by the way but I hope you enjoyed this.
