Let’s get one thing straight right from the Get-Go. This is NOT Halloween or “Let me go find a costume party to attend.” That defeats the purpose. What makes this Hate Loss™ Tip so effective is that you put yourself in situations where people generally would NOT be wearing a costume. Trust me! You will see a spike in your D.S.A. (or daily smiles average for those who are new to the Hate Loss™ Movement). Okay, you have a costume; but where should you go? I am glad you asked, even though you didn’t. It is essential to remember that there are varying degrees of exposure for varying personality types. If you are on the shy side, a great activity is SHOPPING! Shop for clothes, shop for food, shop for sex toys (great choice), just be a consumer (in a costume). Make it a Saturday, or whenever there is going to be excess amounts of people around. FACT: The more people you encounter, the more hate loss you will incur. If you know that you can handle some extra attention, drop in on an intimate setting with your costume on. Perhaps a Wine Bar would suffice. There is nothing quite like a proper wine and cheese pairing to accentuated by your favorite wig. Be a rebel. These suggestions should only be considered starting points. Within your imagination lies the true potential of this Hate Loss™ tip.
IMPORTANT: Make it obvious that you are wearing a costume. There is a thin line between wearing a costume and dressing like a freak (note: I have nothing against the latter). Dressing like a freak is infinitely more susceptible to hate gain than wearing a costume. A great way to differentiate between the two options is the “Theme Check”. Do you have a cohesive theme? If you’re a pirate, are you dressed like a pirate? Yes indeed, you really do have to take off the designer jeans for this one. They go with every other outfit, but not this one. If you are convinced that designer jeans will work as part of the costume, I suggest you move on to another Hate Loss™ Tip. The results might be disappointing and rather harmful to your health. The number one way to avoid any confusion about your gig is by really going for it; no holds barred. Break out the gaudy make-up, fishnets, heels, jewels and definitely the shades that are bigger than your whole face. These items don’t end up on your body by accident; people will know you have a purpose. You, in turn will be losing the hate and feeling THE LOVE.
Hate Loss™ Reminder – On the road to hate loss it is vital to remember that wearing a costume is 100% hate-proof.
