HALLOWEEN ● Continued from 6

Don’t Be Obnoxious

It’s funny to be a character with a catchphrase, but by the fortieth time you’ve said “A dollar makes me holler, Honey Boo-Boo!” the people at the bar (including the friends you showed up with) are going to turn on you (if they didn’t already when you showed up as a curly-headed, backwoods chunk of a girl in a too-tight pageant dress) . Should you choose to dress up as one of our fi ne presidential candidates, don’t turn the holiday into an outlet for your politic beliefs either. We’re all getting enough cat fi ghting and verbal beat downs on Facebook and Twitter; we don’t need to see two rubber- masked politicos doing the “I know you are, but what am I?” battle while giving each other swirlies. There’s been enough of that on the debates lately.

I’ll end this with a quick list of characters that aren’t funny — and no one should ever be:

1. Adolf Hitler 2. Selma and Patty from “The Simpsons” 3. Anyone from “Hoarders” 4. Anyone from “Glee” 5. Randy Jackson
