Ghostbuster!
Another example of living vicariously through movies. (A previous example can be found here.) This time it's Ghostbusters. A good movie, but this is about one fan-dork's desire to be a Ghostbuster for Halloween. Okay, so you find a jumpsuit, strap on a cardboard box with a vacuum hose duct taped to it. Alright, let's start drinking! But, noooooo that's not good enough for fan-dork. His costume has to be authentic! And if you now want to be authentic next Halloween, you can buy his and save yourself some time at the expense of a lot of cash.
