COSTUME SHOP

There’s this really big and somewhat famous costume shop up the street from where my parents live.  I know it pretty well since I used to pass it every time I went to my gym.  I’ve only been inside the place once though.  They have everything you could want in a costume.  Devil masks, Batman outfits, Chef hats, vampire fangs, suits, capes, and more.  When I went in, it was to get a priest’s collar.  I didn’t want anything elaborate for Halloween that year.  Just a little something to show that I put in an effort.  So I just wore a black shirt with a collar and the priest’s collar over that.  It wasn’t that great of an outfit.  I kind of had to point to everyone where the collar was, but once I did everyone knew I was supposed to be a priest.  I guess everyone knows that there’s no other reason for me to be wearing a collar like that.  It’s not anyone would think I’m a priest.  In fact, definitely no one would think I was one.  That was part of the reason I wore a priest’s collar.  It was supposed to be about the irony.  I don’t know if anyone got that though.
