Been Invited to a Guy Fawke's Night Party
« on: October 18, 2011, 01:55:33 PM »
Of course, it is BYOE. 

Any suggestions as to which effigy I ought to bring to the bonfire (if I do not run with the traditional choice)?

Traditional Choice:


Some possibilities:
Karl Marx
Woodrow Wilson
FDR
LBJ
Jean Jacques Rousseau
Earl Warren
Teddy Kennedy (easily manufactured with a couple of white pillow cases and a miniature donkey figureine; given he was bloated, pasty, and always chasing *expletive deleted*ss)
Jimmah
John Maynard Keynes
Betty Friedan
Leo X

How about something really evil -- "Barney" the purple dinosaur?  ;)
 
FDR should be pretty easy.  A wheel chair and a long cigarette holder.

Oh.  Effigy. whew.

On the first reading that is NOT what I thought the E in BYOE to a Guy Fawkes party would be.

I was thinking to myself "Well gunpowder would be traditional, but something high order would be nice as parliment buildings have gotten tougher.  Do you have an fissile material?"

But then I read you want an effigy.  Can't really help there.

Good luck not getting charged with a hate crime for that....

Are you sure the burn ban's been lifted?

I vote Jimmah, in a pile of peanut shells.

In that case, Terrell Bolton.  Or John Wiley Price.

Terrell Bolton could be a rag doll effigy, as he shrank so much as chief.

A Michael Moore effigy would require the most material by far . . .
