Yes, Frankenstorm has a much more ominous and Halloween-friendly ring to it. But the gentler, more goody two-shoes-in-black-leather, more obvious side to Hurricane Sandy and its internet meme potential involves Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta . Do you have chills yet, East Coasters? Are they multiplying ?! And this gem, which wins the meme-off by a mile ( Todd Hale via Jezebel ): The Category 1 hurricane is set to rock the Eastern seaboard tonight into the early week ( tell me about it, stud ) and already has tens of millions of people longing for those bygone summer nights. GROAN! For those of you venturing out in the ‘cane for Halloween, here’s a free costume idea: Combine Olivia Newton-John’s bad-girl blonde curls, hot mama lipstick, and dangling cigarette with a skintight off-the-shoulder trash bag covered in cotton ball clouds and toy cars and hit those Halloween parties as Hurricane Sandy Olsen. Doubles as protective rainwear! In all seriousness, stay safe out there, hurricane pals. Put your disaster days off from work and school to good use, by which I mean making more Hurricane Sandy memes for my internet-browsing enjoyment. Follow Jen Yamato on Twitter .
