00:00I hate gay Halloween. What do you mean you're chaperoned in a passenger seat?

00:04Gay people are very imaginative when it comes to making highly specific Halloween costumes.

00:09The I hate gay Halloween trend expresses playful exasperation at the endless creativity of the LGBTQ plus community.

00:17Instead of your typical witches or zombies, some people create distinct costumes.

00:22The trend began around 2022 with posts like this and this, which are considered some of the earliest examples of the concept.

00:28It serves as a roundup of some of the funniest cultural moments of the last year,

00:32such as the disastrous Willy Wonka experience, or the Four Seasons Orlando baby.

00:37If you're not chronically online, you might not get some of these costumes.

00:40The more hyper-specific and personal to you and your friend group, the better.

00:43Halloween is sometimes called Gay Christmas.

00:45The costumes can also serve as a wink and a nod towards queerness without actually saying this out loud.

00:50So break out your hot glue and sequins.

00:52There's still time to make your own costume that only you and your gay friends will understand.
