Stay safe everyone. This is what I wore to scare people, including myself. Send me all your Kit-Kats and Dots.

I have to work tonight, so I won't be able to walk in the Village Halloween parade for the first time in many years. I also had to switch my usual costume for a sideline-appropriate hippie... which nobody at the match will get, since I have to wear a heavy jacket over the tie-dye.
 
I dig the socks.

This running? thread was fun. Merge?

I hate Halloween. 2011 Edition.

My wife bought Pearson's Salted Nuts Rolls to hand out. Told her I don't want the housed egged so restocking.

Edit: Yeah, the linked thread doesn't cover as many years as I thought. Must be other threads out there. Carry on.

Because I'm too lazy to look up the old threads

Top 5 Halloween candy:
1. Kit Kat
2. Reese's Peanut Butter Cup
3. Nestle Crunch
4. Mini Hershey chocolate bar
5. Milky Way

No, I'm not a dentist ... but my teeth will need a good cleaning after this week. Hell, I've been snacking on the hidden candy stash for about a week.

Chocolate has always been my week spot for healthy eating, and Halloween is a great excuse to be bad!

Also be careful it seems that more and more kids have nut allergies. Some can't even sit at the same table with other kids who have nuts.
 
Kind of have mixed favorites for Halloween candy. for chocolate; twix, heath bar, reeses peanut butter cup, kit kat, milky way. don't really like snickers or almond joy.

for non-chocolate candy: runts, nerds, smarties, neco, sweet tarts, spree, pop rocks (if they're still around), starburst. starburst is probably the only soft non-chocolate candy i really like. don't like mike and ike, dots, mary jane (if that's still around) or any chewy type candy.
 
I live in a neighborhood where Halloween is a BIG deal. We get trick-or-treaters from neighboring burgs where the action isn't as fierce.

But I swear this is the year where I won't give candy to some adult walking alone and saying it's for his/her sick kid.

Then it turns out it IS for his kid and the kid dies wishing for one last Kit-Kat and you're going to feel like a massive ****heel.
Give up the candy.


Also, Kit-Kats are the best. No argument allowed
 
I turn off the porch light.
Any of these teeth-rotten little bastards try knocking on my door, they'll get the delightful image of me opening up my front door, and putting an empty can of Budweiser in their basket.

Good point, didn't even think about that.

I looked again at that thread I linked above and it goes from 2007-2014. Longer than I thought.

I wonder if typefitter still terrorizes the neighbors as he did back then?
 
We used to enjoy Halloween. Now, I have a dog who screams bloody murder anytime the doorbell goes off or someone approaches the front door. So yeah, the front porch light stays off tonight.
 
We might get three trick or treaters tonight. We're at the front of a subdivision, along a fairly busy state highway, and have a fence around our yard. I don't think people ever even see our porch light.
Still bought two bags of Kit Kats and two bags of mini Hershey's. I'm a little blue today, and handing out some candy might help cheer me up. The wife, who is on a diet and trying to drag me into it kicking and screaming, probably won't be as happy.
 
Are you rocking a poodle skirt, too?
I'm wearing blue jeans, thank you. And I don't think these are saddle shoes, spectators maybe? Hell, I don't know. I saw them, I liked them, I bought them.

I dig two-tone shoes.

He doesn't want people talking about his shoes, yet he loves that people are talking about his shoes.
 
At a former shop, we had a saleswoman who dressed as a witch every Halloween and I would always ask "Is this the one day a year you dress up or the one day you don't?"
