Happy Halloween

[PearlWatson]

I hate Halloween as much as the next guy, but Trunk or Treats are the stupidest things ever invented. I'd like to kick the Relief Society President who thought up this jackass idea square in the chops.

Mormons stole the idea from the Baptists, brainiac.

Is that where they got the idea for carpet basketball courts too?

That being said, I dressed up as my opponent in the upcoming election -- people kept asking me if I was a pedophile. I laughed. (American flag tie, graying hair, pedo-smile, Blue-Tooth in my ear at all times, you know)

You think he dressed up as you? A cross between Sloth from Goonies and the banjo playing kid from Deliverance?

Trunk'r'treats are cramping your candy hustle. Utah went overly safety paranoid a few years back, it seems like a huge amount of the foot traffic doesn't even exist anymore. You take your kids to a church parking lot, the mall, shops downtown, whatever now because you don't want Old Harry the meth addict sticking something in the candy or Billy the child molester putting the move on your kids. Quicker haul of candy, less fun experience. Kids let adults hi-jack the one quintessential Halloween experience. It doesn't even sound fun anymore.

Tried to respond to this last night, but was having connection issues.
We had WAY more trick-or-treaters this year than in any year since we have lived in my current house (5 halloweens now). There's not even a close second.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SalmonHobo again.

Here are some more dumb things people still believe.

"Just 15 percent say humans evolved, and that God was not involved."

You said it.

I found some more "freaky" halloween pics.

^Those first two are awesome.

 

[moevillini]

those are too funny! I especially like the pumpkin seeds as beads of sweat on the laboring mama pumpkin.

I also like the 3 headed pooch. I'm a sucker for doggy costumes.
