Book Day- going 'as a word'

So, we have a new thing for book day where they need to dress as a 'word'. Preferably an adjective but could be a noun, apparently.

Examples give, such as 'incandescent' 'snowball'

Any ideas welcome, DH is ill and have no ideas / quite stressed. DC says 'blue' and can dress in blue and be sad! But wondered about something else perhaps

One of mine is going as mathematical. He's drawn signs and numbers all over a white top

The other is going as question with a big question mark on the front

I am reminded of this joke from many years ago.

Three Guys With Heavy Brooklyn Accents Get Invited To A Costume Party.

The theme for this party is "Dress Like an Emotion." The first guy is wearing a pear costume. The second guy is wearing a dress. And the third guy is butt-naked except for a custard pie around his pecker.

They ring the doorbell. The host opens the door, sizes them up, and says "You guys aren't in theme, so I can't let you in."

The first guy argues, "What are you talkin' about? I'm in despair!"

The host shrugs and lets him in.

The second guy argues, "What are you talkin' about? I'm in distress!"

The host shrugs again and lets him in, too. But, he stops the third guy, who's butt-naked except for the custard pie around his pecker and says, "There's no way you're in theme, so don't even try."

The third guy retorts, "What are you talkin' about? I'm fucking disgusted!"

Any of those any use? Grin
