Halloween Costumes I Do Not Want to See

My standard "Don't dress like an idiot for Halloween" message goes something like this...
Dear Coworkers,

Please remember that I have to look at you not only on Halloween but the days after as well... This list is by no means exhaustive and is subject to frequent editing. Should you ignore my advice and dress in one of these themes this anyway, I cannot be responsible for the actions of my right fist.

1) Michael Jackson
2) Anyone with the last name of "Obama"
3) Cheap Ghost (aka Plain White Sheet and Pillowcase)
4) Octomom
5) Actually, anyone with 8 or more children
6) Anything showing clinkles (i.e. cleavage plus wrinkles)
7) Speedo Superhero
8) Men in Tights
9) A Parody of Me
10) Anything you found after googling "most offensive Halloween costume"

I'll have my camera (and my fist) ready...
And for the longest time, this was sufficient. But I have had to make a place on the list for my new most hated costume:
11) Anna Rexia
Dressing up as an eating disorder is not classy and will not give you that elusive hipster "edge" that you are looking for. (Yeah, hipsters, I called you out in public like that.) In fact, I don't want to see your interpretation of any disease (as cute as the giant microbes are). So no dysentery, scabies, TB, or HIV/AIDS. I'm not saying that I would punch you in the face for grabbing a friend and making two "AID" costumes. I'm saying that I would tell the cops that I didn't see a thing and then slip the guy who did it a $20 bill of appreciation.
