I found this funny(who would do this?)
 

I was cruising on fastweb.com and found this in my inbox

a renewed version is expected out soon

My friend Keri made a pocket book made entirely of duct tape...
And, I do know a few people who considered doing this, but they didn't, only becuase they decided to not go to the Prom...

If I can get a girl to do that and go with me, I plan on doing it. I don't care if I make a fool of myself. My school kinda expects it from me :) I don't think I know of a girl that would go to the prom with me even _without_ a duct tape dress...Hmm...maybe I can lure them in with $2500 towards college :)

Ahh yes...and I have a bookbag made out of duct tape. (Well...covered in duct tape...) I stole the idea but it looks original since I'm the only one in my school to do it :P I planned on cutting out the actual bookbag fabric but never got around to it. I may still do it...I have 2 weeks. Heh...duct tape rules ;) weedie knows... Sean's pants...Luke's wife beater... :P

I would say something about Asher, but I don't think it's my place...

:D

Muah. I'll use Tartran (or whatever the KMart brand is) just to spite Duck brand :)

i was gonna do it, but my girlfriend was like 'No way in hell!'

Sounds like an interesting idea to wear a duct tape suit.
Maybe next year when I make and wear a vest made out of duct tape to collect buttons on. I wonder how well it would hold up though?

Mehh...why are girls so picky? What's wrong with wrapping your body in rolls of duct tape then going to the biggest formal event of their lives so far and humiliating themselves? I don't get it. :)

Duct-tape ANYTHING is incredibly hot. I don't know how I'll be able to stand that much duct tape for an evening. Heh...if I do it...I have plans to make a large duct-tape top hat :) and possibly an incredibly flimsy cane :D

I know a girl who did this for prom and two who wore duct tape dresses for graduation. They said it was really hot and uncomfortable, but I've seen pictures online of some really cool looking dresses & tuxes.

And yes, I admit that I would have never worn duct tape to either of my proms even if I were guaranteed that amount of money. Just thought you would need a female perspective.

.....weedie's duct tape shoes! hmm.. what else?

Let me think, since the public school system hates me... if we aren't at Nats during prom.... and the so-called-other-half-of-me doesn't care.... and I could somehow find away to put myself in duct tape.... I may be weird enough to take on the challenge... I'd let you keep the money. :rolleyes:

it only says that the picture has to show you in the prom attire. it doesn't say you have to take the picture *at* the prom. you know how alot of people take pix at home, before they leave? well...just change your clothes! :)
i would do it.

If someone is willing to do this with me for my prom this year I would so do this...hehe...I can find someone I'm sure...hehe

Anyone care to join me, eh?

i thought about doing it but i got side tracked by some little robotics thing ;) but i do have a duck tape wallet. many of you have seen it already. you can see this thread about my ducktape wallet. and my most recently updated pics of my wallet below this text. i had to change the skin on it. it was turning black and gritty.

Hey...my prom isn't during nats :) (Although it may be during Tunkhannok...but I hope not :D)

Ha... the so-called-other-half-of-you...sounds promising :P That'll last forever. *grin* Sorry :P

I hope to god that no grammar freaks read that :)

Ohh, there have been some critics but as i keep saying it is summer and i dont really care. once school starts again in 15 days i may change the way i post

Ok, it's in my palm for my schedule next year! You have been booked! :)


HA! Blah, bite me! I've had more than you've had! No more conspiracy of trying to kill him on the way to competition so you can be the driver, that doesn't make me laugh anymore.

Ha...well...I'm kinda second-in-line for someone. So I almost kinda have a slim chance at getting a girlfriend! :D

So...should I book the hotel room after the prom or should you? *wink* *wink* :cool:

TOO LATE!!!

/me has a seizure and dies, immediately...


Melissa: interesting offer...
:D

I had to bite my tongue not to say anything the first time I read that. I already commented on JK's grammar once so I decided not to do it again. Yes, I am one of those grammar freaks, but I'm getting better. My first step was switching from an English to a poli sci major.

I definitely would do it, and I'd be going to the prom with a girl from my team who would definitely do it! The only problem is our parents would kill us...

So, how do you make these full suits out of duct tape? Really skillful double-layering or taping over existing suits?

If it's that skillful I may need to practice it before attempting...

Ha! I was just about to post on how I can't read Jk's posts. Oh well, I'm not a grammer freak, but I try to write well as a favor to the people reading these forums. For somebody wasting an entire day of work reading these forums (ehghem! (myself)), It's easy to get a headache or annoyed when your constantly TRYING to understand what people are saying. Anywho... I skipped my senior prom for Penn Challenge, and it was well worth it. To me... Proms are a waste. I can have just as much fun without spending $300 for a single evening.

Why is everybody picking on me?? It is not fair!! From now on I will try to punctuate, etc. when making very long posts. Is everyone happy now!?:mad: :mad:

:) I can get a room discount at work! Or would the Comfort be better with a pool and hot tub? :p

Is that a take up on the offer :P

hmmmmm....

:D

Haha...we have an empty apartment in the building. :P

Oh...and duct-tape suits would most likely be made by covering another suit. I mean...you COULD make your own suit, but that would be incredibly hot and kinda flimsy. I don't think I want an unbreatheable fabric right next to my skin. (Check out some of the entries on duck brand's site! OMG!)

I don't know what girls would do for dresses. My guess would be just cover an old dress. Dunno.

That isn't a response now :P
hehe
