    Anyone else see the marginalization of Halloween?

    Like, it used to be a 2-4 pillowcase-of-candy endeavor, and now it's all,

    "Tricking and/or treating is strictly prohibited outside approved and well-lit zones, and the approved time for such activity is from 5:30 to 6 or until sundown, whichever occurs first"

    On the flip side, it is a pretty slutty holiday.

    one year I played Trick Or Treater Lottery

    I had a great big bowl of boxes of Dots

    I emptied three of the boxes, filled two with gravel and one with a ten dollar bill, then glued them shut.

    I let the kids help themselves to a box or two out of the bowl.

    The two gravel boxes were gone at the end of the night. The ten-dollar-bill box was still there.

    Looks like I won.

    i would be so pissed if i got a box of rocks

    you roll the dice, you gotta be prepared if they come up snake eyes.

    hahaha

    one year in college, i sat outside my door holding a bowl of candy with sign attached that said "Please take only one." My costume was such that you couldn't see any part of me, and so the general assumption was that it was a dummy.

    I taught some kids some lessons about only one.

    I did that the year I was grounded over Halloween.

    my dad used to do this

    every year we used to make a dummy on the porch, wearing this awesome goblin mask with a jaw that moved when you talked. FUcking rad. Stuff a pair of overalls full of old clothes, leave it on the porch next to the styrofoam headstones and fake spiders and shit.

    Well, every other year or so, my dad would get my younger brother out in the costume about halfway through the night. Kids have already seen it, it's a small town so word spreads, they know it is just a dummy this year.

    Well, along comes a few more kids, and there's my brother, dressed like the dummy. A spare shirt hanging out of the pants like he's all stuffed. Sitting dead still.

    Wait until they get their candy, then chase them off the porch screaming.

    One year we had a kid go "OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT" and back right off the porch, falling into the grass flat on his back. He screamed like a little girl, then got up and sprinted. Nearly missed the opening in the fence, too.

    What the hell is with the lazy teenagers who don't dress up or just put on a mask last-minute and go trick-or-treating? These two 17-ish girls and a guy just came up to my house. The guy had a hockey mask, blue college basketball cap and a hooded sweatshirt. The girls wore their street clothes, sunglasses and one had a black bubble-vest while the other had a black sweatshirt. They were "Like, FBI guys." "Yeah"

    I told them "Well you must be under cover because I never would have realized you were actually in costume."

    I then had to tell the guy to drop the 8 full-sized-fucking kitkat bars he was trying to stuff in his pocket. Seriously dude, I'm handing out full-sized bars, you're NOT dressed up, you're at least 3 to 5 years too old for this and now you're trying to get more of what you don't deserve?

    Piss off.

    When I was co-oping last fall, a few of my co-op and intern friends sat out front of one of our houses and drank and grilled brats. Good times.

    It gets hard to censor one's self around small children when one has had a few too many margaritas.

    I took my son begging for candy dressed up as a devil. I lined his pitchfork with glow sticks to make a cool looking polearm lightsaber thing. At one house some other kids ran up just as my son was going to say "trick or treat", and he totally stabbed at the one girl and told her to back off because it was his turn. I'm so proud.

    Because he did good with the head piece this year, I'm confident that next year he will be Batman. I will make him wonderful toys. There may be a Power Wheels Batmobile that he drives from house to house.
