4. The Mask Mask
Stanley Ipkiss. Who knew that beneath that gangly, bank-tellerish exterior lay the insane man of comic proportions and Shakira-esque hips that defied you to say that they lie? Not until that odd piece of ceremonial wood entered your life were you ever to entertain the idea that you would one day confidently wear a yellow zoot suit out in public, make out with Cameron Diaz and be able to make your eyes pop out of your head while wolf-whistling. Your mask coined catchphrases such as 'SSSSSSSmoking!', 'That's a Spicy Meatball!' and 'Somebody Stop Me!' although you obviously didn't really mean it. You were allowed to bring your innermost desires to life, as well as your dog's which is admittedly pretty cool. Many tried to emulate you in the coming years, but none could get that exact recipe of zaniness and hue of green correct, much less find a yellow zoot suit and matching fedora that fit so well.
